I just kicked it with a “Wisdom-Walker”- I have a direct line with a Few. It only takes deep THETA to get through. By training I’m a Behavioral Neuroscientist. That’s what I do. By B’earth, I’m simply an extension of - You. ‘Sticks and Stones may break your bones”, while words can maim you, and cripple you for life – worse than a knife.
Heads-up, Eyes on the Prize, ‘bout time
you realize, so you won’t be surprised.
This is not a Cassette tape for you to rewind, and play over & over again each time, you think the “System” is out of line. Introspection got you slipN & tripN, about how “Amerika” is ‘about to make you lose yoh-mind! Keep it real! If you melanin dark, that is Orca – Jet-Blue Black, Like John Johnson dropped the name “Jet” to denote - Fast News to keep you on Track. In vogue reality checks, and Truth about you! With centerfolds – christening the Black Beauty of the week, what a Treat! … prompting all binary men to pick one up, just to peek! From licorice Black - with Afros, caramel brown to high-yellow Sistahs Crowned with Cornrows, and Full Lips - with well-defined hips! Announcing our Beauty, hardly evah—if evah shown in “Amerikan’ news Clips. You don’t need to gulp a 40, a sip of Hennessey, a Blunt, or a Jay to realize – it’s about to be - A New Day. Curtis Mayfield hit you up in 1990, with a “New World Order.” This “Thang” is about the Future, the Women, and the Babies, not what’s south of the border. It goes way beyond what you feel – just keeping it real. Your Ancestors died for moments like this. Such an opportunity you don’t want to Miss! PAY ATTENTION! Have you noticed, this ELECTION - “done ‘gon straight-up Krazy! So, STOP being so DAMN reactive and Whiny! Melanin in your skin – has always prompted “Amerika’ to treat you grimy.
Listen or read the lyrics . . . Quit Play-N, from the Harlem HellCats to the De’ Mau-Mau Brothas (brothers) returning from the Nam! (Viet Nam).
May I strongly suggest - that you VOTE! As my ‘Rasta Brotha” Bob Marley pleaded, “Get Up – Stand Up” . . . It’s one of your most sacred “Rights” VOTE!! Replay – Replay, Mayfield, and Marley, and learn the lyrics.
VOTE!!
Today!! Remember, I dropped this on you yesterday! You will get something -- yes something, not everything, if only the confirmation that you engaged the process, rather than words echoing the reality of what you already know. -- America is a global business entity. Her Modus Operandi continues to dance to the tunes & lyrics of the "System of Racism & White Supremacy". So, participate, and activate/agitate to facilitate ways to eliminate. Otherwise, drink, smoke, wine and dine to numb and sedate yourself, as you slowly gasp for breath as a system poisons your lifeline. It is your choice to lose more of your mind to be reclined for the last time. Remember, when you cast your VOTE, you are not throwing a Boomerang. It doesn't comeback to be thrown again. YOU are the Archer ?? who must release the arrow from the bow, and the force of your Soul --- So, please focus, and choose your target wisely... Release your arrow with the goal to at least hit the target, because this arrow represents your VOTE! NO SECOND SHOT!! ~~~~~ REMEMBER, what Michael Jackson said,
" THIS IS IT" ...
