"Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, and though they are with you, yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love, but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward, nor tarries with yesterday."
That made me think of this old video I did and the kind review I got.

The definitive video of this classic poem by Jalaluddin (a/k/a "Alafia Pudim a/k/a "Lightnin' Rod") of The Last Poets, As a personal friend of Jalal and the late Shaikh Sulaiman and a poet myself, I am highly impressed by this work of art. Keep it coming - they have a great body of work youth need to hear so that they can develop consciousness and understand the roots of what they call rap today.
It fasinating how life works. The poem is by the last Poets ( A very appporopriate name) the Grahpic are by Twilight Studio
The Video: Mean Machine
