Uncle Dilla (Black Deaf man)
by T.Williams aka DillaDeaf
Born under the standard of Honolulu blue and silver
Where pain and sorrow flows like a frozen river
Silence was never my friend
Comprehend the sound of bullies in the schools I attend
What was imaginary or real
Could an auditory machine reveal
The ordeal of anger by piecemeal?
Loud sounds became an blessed refuge
Became a scrooge – collecting Motown tapes
Temptations of unmistakable melody quicken my deluge
In class always patronized, assuming I was a slow reader
Ringleader of library books – faster speed than a proofreader
Test scores astounded and left those dumbfounded
Accuse me of fraud – he’s a dumb ? and don’t know his nouns
Teachers tried to undermine my grades
An smart black man that made old Mississippi afraid
Strength of words balanced an weakness of mathematics
It’s my greatest enemy, forever bond by marriage and song
I wish for a clear enunciation of rhyming pronunciation
As the greatest deaf rhymer – without giving in the hearing world assimilation
