idle thoughts of crisis (unfinished)

I check my g-shock to find the time
calculate the minutes in seconds
unwind
rewind
fast forward to hours
these days are full of water and blood
wars and deep pockets
cries, poverty and yachts
wall street, broad street and street walkers
human trafficking
blacks, latin and africans
packed in prisons
san francisco, geronimo and guantanamo
one of these doesn't belong
bombs and collard greens
artillery shells and rice
tanks and tang
rhetoric and apple pie
nooses and nosy neighbors afraid to tell
flash mob hysteria
hysterical laughter
the mourning after the aftermath
t-minus too many lives lost
smoke clouds and cigars
blueprints and code reds
plans, deception and death plots
assassinated dreams deferred
glib lies and truth serum
snowboarding, skateboarding and waterboarding
what does torture look like?
secret missions under the cloak of dark
light skinned presidents carrying out white agendas
someone blamed the tranny's
there are transplants buried deep in all this soil
it will be hard to bypass these clogged arteries
my heart is telling me to resist arrest and then attack
so what we are in the last days
this is just the beginning
3 balls, two strikes, two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning
even so, the game has just started
someone just farted on this whole agenda
flagulations
congratulations to all those
that write Fanonian rhymes in these draconian times
bless the wretched of the earth
the proletariat, harriet and the lariat
tbc......

2K10!!!

I wish to welcome everyone back to my blog! In the past several months, I took a brief respite to re-charge, re-dedicate, re-evaluate, realize, re-acquaint and re-equip myself with the ability to effectively express myself in my writing. Surely, this is not an easy process, however, I am getting back to the old me! For those who don't know, there is always a latent genius waiting to be brought to the fore. As such, I am feeling the fire! In 2009, I had some tremendous moments of achievement and disappointment, but that is the very reason why we live. To experience the myriad complexities that this world presents us with, allows us to appreciate the subtle beauty of reflection and comprehension. That is to say, life is a continual, non-stop, incessant learning ground. I am digging deeper into the inner resources of my soul to extract the impossible. This journey will be no less be warranted. It will be painful, dark at times, beautiful, enlightening, mysterious, faithful, challenging, yet necessary. To ask what I will do in this next decade, is to ask what I have done all my life, LIVE! Things will be different though. There are some pertinent questions that I need to ponder and probe myself on. Firstly, what can I do different this year, that I did not do last year? Secondly, what are some successful things that I completed that I can improve on this time around? Thirdly, what are some new ideas, some fresh thoughts that haven't been thought before? Is it possible that I can think a thought that has never been thought before? That in itself is thoughtful. I will try to think about it! Really, I am going to embark on this journey with the guiding and transformative power of LOVE. The most feared four letter word is going to steady and navigate this ship on which I will sail on life's seas. There WILL be new discoveries, old memories, faint but vivid illustrations of the possibility of uncovering the impossible. I will have to sacrifice some old vices and employ new techniques to help keep the path clear and steady. Any deviation from the ultimate goal of reaching my unlimited boundless potential will not be acceptable. My motivation is rooted in the beauty of the Sun and the glow of the Moon. Playing connect the dots with the stars and traveling further and farther than my wildest dreams is somewhat scary. There lies the peculiarity of the unknown. I have to go there! I must! This is a new decade. This is only the beginning of many things to come. Welcome back.
