Portugal ~ Monday, 30 September 2019

When you see my name, 
how much do you know... 
ever imagine 
night enter a ship, 

yes, deep in the hold, 
only as cargo, 
understand the cost, 

sleeping in the dark, 
ever-present death, 
everyday, I cry, 

maybe you don't know, 
yes, the slave traders, 

no one imagines 
about my dark past, 
my dead ancestors, 
even I must weep.
