Chalk Marks by Cles A. Wilson Thursday, October 06, 2005 Not rated by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan There are chalk marks everywhere, you just can't see them...anymore!
Black Girl.. I want to tell you… About the Chalk Mark… Faded away on a well-traveled street… Buried deep within the weather beaten concrete… Not seen by today’s Black Girl… Running/walking to and fro on a day-to-day-basis… The outlined shape of a Black Girls’ Chalk Mark… Recognizing the very last moments of a Black Girls’ life… Compassionately outlined by a stranger in Blue… HER Chalk Mark… Marking the Very Spot where that Black Girl laid… I know that spot… Never forgot that spot… Thou, years pass with days to come… The Outline… Of a Black Girl Chalk Mark… Thou not seen… Still… Remains.

I love it. Without wasting a word, you have painted a picture that is bound to stay in readers' minds. Certainly it will in mine. Clever, provocative, and it rings true. Quite a feat! 'Pea' <3
