I was here once beforeby Frederick L. Hargrove 8/24/00 Copyright 2000 All rights reservedI was here once before As an African King ready to explore; I conquered the land and the invaders and I ruled over dictators. I built great and lasting civilizations This was one of my revelations; I constructed the great pyramid When I was only a kid. My grandfather invented the alphabets, writing, mathematics and astronomy and the small tool This type of information is not taught in your school; I developed the greatest minds and left a body of literature for you to see Isn’t this amazing what we can be? I had a girlfriend by the name of Cleopatra Who was a queen that lived in Africa; We fell in love during the rule of my first dynasty Sharing my rulership with her made it special to me. I have appeared here in a place called America It doesn’t look anything like the continent of Africa; The black people that I see Seem to have lost their history. I was here once before I don’t like what I see anymore.
