Tupac Poetry

This week I have chosen 'Starry Night'. It's a dedication from Tupac to Vincent van Gogh, a famous dutch painter. Tupac felt very close to him.  Here is a little quote from Tupac telling why he felt close to him:

'Because nobody appreciated his work until he was dead. Now it's worth millions. I feel close to him, how tormented he was. Marvin too. That's how I was out there. I'm in jail now, but I'm free. My mind is free. The only time I have problems is when I sleep.' - Editors of Vibe

Starry Night Dedicated in Memory of Vincent van Gogh


a creative heart, obsessed with satisfying
This dormant and uncaring society
u have given them the stars at night
and u have given them Bountiful Bouquets of Sunflowers
But 4 u there is only contempt
and though u pour yourself into that fame
and present it so proudly
this world could not accept your masterpieces
from the heart

So on that starry night
u gave 2 us and
u took away from us
the one thing we never acknowledged
your life 

- Tupac Shakur
