Thomas Jefferson wrote,
"We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal."
(True—
...

In a round way of life
what does a man need?
a woman to be call a wife?
or a plot to grow some wheats?
...

Take me to the old Christianity
Where divinity shows  up in our humanity
Where Christians get tested positively  for faith not fear
Where they walking in righteousness  knowing  the end is near
...

The Beauty of life is
our children, our pride, our wives
In the middle of this microcosm of life
It's always the little things that matters
...

He was  rude
They got into a fight
And he posted  her nude.
Her nakedness  became  a tourist site
...

I'm so sorry the sun rises and sets,
The silver moon shimmers at night,
I'm sorry I know your smile is sweet,
Sweet as love and the pain the heart feels.
...

</>For my dear mum, on this usual day
I write you a poem, in my own special way
I wanted to tell you, in words of my own
You’re the most precious person that I have ever known.
...

As my dinner get ready
I realize the dinner table is empty
The house sounds as dead as the grave yard
No whisper of your voice and that's driving me mad
...

War Zone
Dust up, sounds of deadly bullets and bombs,
Triggers squeezed, blood spills, it's the combat zone.
Soldiers at war, I don't wanna fight, I just wanna go home,
...

One mission one life one kill
Is the bond of the brotherhood
Mission success never go down hill
So far is we all united good

They said 'women are complicated '
I say 'they are our solution to our loneliness'
A partial part of our completeness.'
A beautiful companion clothed in glory.
...

The first time we met, I could see
That you and I were meant to be
Your eyes were so gentle, your smile so true
When you first held my hand, I just knew
...

Sometimes at night when I look into the sky
I start to think of you and then ask myself why?
Why do I love you it? I think and smile
Because I know my list could go on for a miles.
...

I prefer  you laugh
But I will take your cry
over your  silence
I prefer  you smile or chortle
...

One morning I found you in eternal sleep;
I tried to wake you as I began to weep,
But all my pleas you could not hear;
Oh if I could have only kept you near,
...

Out of nowhere came the sounds of the trumpet
Sound of thunder and earth quick
The sound, was so loud
it awoke the hair of my skin
...

It was cold winter December
When I first lay my eyes on her
So beautiful, I remember
As she smiles, I smile
...

I was afraid to fall in love
Because I learnt it hurts to love
I was afraid to behold  your face
The beauty of HIS grace
...

I see candle flicker softly on the table set for two
There is no one on earth tonight except for you and I
A nice romantic dinner, a bottle of chilled wine
And we are here together in a moment stopped in time.
...

I still remember the first day
I saw you like it was yesterday.
among the congregation of the saints,
it w's you who stood out that day

duke perry abrokwa Biography

I am a passionate believer in love, life, and Christian poetry. I am a poet, spoken word artist, and a business owner. I am also a student and a book author, a philosopher, and an engineer for subsurface utility. My favorite book is 'The Bible'. My favorite quote is 'by the touch of love every one is a poet'. Poems are expressions of emotions through the melody of the heart. Poems are everything.)

The Best Poem Of duke perry abrokwa

We Hold These Truths.

Thomas Jefferson wrote,
"We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal."
(True—
but not for the Black man.)

"That they are endowed by their Creator
with certain unalienable Rights,
among these are Life…"
(True—
but not for George Floyd,
not for Kevin Matthews, Roy Nelson,
Jamar Clark, Tiara Thomas—
the list stretches on, unbroken.)

"…Liberty…"
(Not for the Black, still bound—
slaves in masks,
chained to a system without iron links.)

"…and the pursuit of Happiness."
(We chase it,
but Happiness
sprints too fast for Black lives.)


---

The white man: innocent until proven guilty.
The Black man: guilty,
praying no bullet finds his head
before innocence is proven.

Blacks don't check the race box on job applications—
We're labeled "lazy"
before the interview begins.

They call high-paying jobs "white-collar."
Sophisticated crimes? "White-collar crimes."
As if Black minds can't master such.
Instead, they brand us with
gang violence, rape, armed robbery—
"Black-related crimes."
SHAME.


---

In America, cops shield citizens
from crime
more than they do Black lives.
(Let that sink in.)

No other race can fathom
what it means to be Black—
prejudged
before a word escapes your lips.

We teach our children:
Your skin marks you different.
Walk on eggshells.
If pulled over,
say your prayers,
keep hands in sight,
or pray it's not your last breath.

We teach them how their rich melanin
brands them a threat to society.


---

It's 2020, and still we must recount:
How African royals were handpicked,
turned to slaves,
chained, starved,
shipped to the West.

How 400 years ago,
slavery rewrote history.
How Black hands laid America's railroads.
How plantations fed on Black sweat
for a single day's scraps.
How our mothers were violated
as guns held our fathers still.
How our children are "lucky"
second-class citizens
in the only nation they've ever called home.


---

It's 2025, and Black lives
are still dehumanized.
Classrooms bury our truth beneath lies.

Do you know?
Civilization was born in Africa.
The first to read and write? Africans.
Christianity took root in Africa
before colonization's claws.
The first mathematical tool? Found in Africa.
The richest man in history?
Not Rockefeller—Mansa Musa, from Africa.
The richest continent? Africa.

And we—
we are humans,
as brilliant,
as creative,
as any race.
The average African speaks three languages.
FACT.


---

When I shout "Black Lives Matter, "
I don't say all lives don't.
I say, as a Black man—
my life matters too.

duke perry abrokwa Quotes

I am a Christian not because I was born as one, but because I know it to be true.

Wisdom is spoken to the world, understood by the wise.

The ears are two for a reason, the mouth is one for a reason, the wise listen from both sides before making a judgement. The fool just jump into conclusions.

We all battle in life, we just have to make sure we don't lose to fear.

Fear paralyzes, only those that face it survives.

Winning begins with imagination of victory.

a man leads a home but a woman directs

a woman is satisfy with care and love, but a man is only satisfy with respect.

Truth is like a light and can never be hidden in the dark. It shines brighter in the dark.

This world can paint you as the devil. Just don't let it be true.

We're spiritual beings having a physical experience

God doesn't need us.He desires us.

The sad fact about sin is Jesus died for it.
