As Cuban
As a cigar
Ukrainian
And Romanian
Loved the Olympics
Because I got
To cheer
For my ancestral heritage
Yet be grateful
That I bleed
Red, white
And blue
Henry Louis Gates
I love finding
My roots
And treasuring
The person
They shape
As I look
At my reflection
And tell
The Master
How much
Of a privilege
It is
To be His
He doesn’t like
That my soul
Has been split
Between perfection
And mediocrity
Do not seek
To copy
Humanity
All imperfect
Flawed beings
Needing saving
From ourselves
Love me well
Until I’m able
To do it
With consistency
