June is Art and Music Month
by Afrika Midnight Asha Abney

June is art and music month
I wish it could be celebrated throughout the entire year
so that I can pay tribute to great artists and musicians
who created images to feed our mind
music to heal our spirit
elevate our soul
Lois Mailou Jones depicted masks
Sam Gilliam whose abstractions were full of color and strength
Jacob Lawrence whose subjects were outrageous
Romare Bearden style impressive
Duke Ellington whose jazzy lyrics moved like the wind
James Brown got soul
Bob Marley roots music full of positive messages.

On behalf of the site I thank you for this Afrika. You're a shining example to us all, particularly those who would use up this valuable space with flame wars, personal attacks, celebrity gossip and pet peeves.

Right.
Use the
valuable
space
to promote
yourself
with poems.
Is that
supposed
to be
a poem?
Are you
taking
critiques?
I'll
tell you
what I
think
about
it later.
After
my
headache
subsides.
