2020 marked a new millennium, leaving us with no way to go.
A global pandemic killed thousands and left millions in a panic.
Protest and riots caused by the death of a civilian made the nation's foundations collapsed.
Meanwhile corporate media is rubbing it's hands off the death and suffering.
I don't care what you stand on.
As long as you're standing on your truth nobody should stop you.
We live on one planet.
To safely put it we're all we got.
Listen.
Sitting in my room with nothing with no power on I couldn't do nothing.
I felt complacent.
Didn't know what to do.
I read.
I wrote.
I even tried prayer.
I still couldn't grasp my mind around as to why the world had come to it current state.
So far as it regards to the journey I'm walking on I only have one job.
That job is the position/or field of the arts.
When I write what I'm doing is reflecting the times we are living in.
Carrying the job of the artist isn't an easy one whatsoever.
This job requires one to face the pains and horrors of the world as they are while at the same time dealing with one's traumas and insecurities.
It ain't easy doing this job without pay, but somebody got to do it.
Malcolm X once said "A man that stands for nothing will fail for anything."
I guarantee you that I stand on every word that I have ever written.
Currently, I stand before you a surviving social experiment.
Just like Jesus or any other groundbreaking historical figure I have been casted stones and felt the forbidden stings of rejections.
Being young, black, and intelligent, and aware of the world's wickedness is a tough badge to carry.
Wishing me good blessings and positive vibrations is all I asked for.
All my life I felt like a lonesome child.
For the past fifteen years I've been the oldest of three and nothing ever matters.
My love life amounts to zero.
My family (on the most part) is distant.
Binge watching on Netflix doesn't feed my entertainment senses.
My thoughts and opinions are the only guests that give me company.
I might belong to an ancient race of people for all I know.
God is my only friend I don't have nothing to lose. [3/21/2021]
