this is my 300th poem
another milestone
the honest reason behind it is not how many poems i wrote
this is why
an underdog that many say there is no chance one will win
like the 300 Spartans when they were oppose against their adversaries
underestimate because one is outnumber by many
undermine one's heart with fear knowing i'll fight back
the will power to defeat all adversaries
the resolution to terminate ignorance that ends with respect
the tenacity in conquering enemies
who will try to assassinate my character
degrade my manhood
did you forget i came from the hood
the fortitude to persevere regardless of the odds
for most, my chances are 300-1
see, unlike a lot of people, i don't run from a challenge
stray away cowardly because the numbers are stacked
instead, i fight with so much determination, many will be left in awe worst than a plane being hijacked
it's all about heart
the drive to stand up and vanquish all that want to see me fall
this is a lifetime reminder why i will always stand tall
but before i close this poem out
i want to recite a quote that hits right at home
it goes like this
i'm not concern whether you like or dislike me
all i ask is you respect me as a human being
the man that said that was the late jackie robinson
but here's the twist
if you or a clique ever overstep boundaries to me
you will know who i really am
