CULTURAL DISPLAY


Boom boom boom goes the fontomfrom drum
Dancers with sweat pouring from their backs
The intense heat of the afro sun
Depicting everything rich and black
Interspersed with this, the kente cloth
Which compared to others
A butterfly’s wings to a moth’s
What is this; a mere display
Of a culture once enslaved
Their ancestors sent to and early grave
A holocaust greater than Hitler gave
