nawlins, louisiana

tumbled and turned
the pool begins to drain
my space is cramped
the pressure is great
from in here i can hear the muffled sound of screams
upside down
the vacuum pulls powerfully
my darkness is suddenly broken
the light is blinding
the pull of nature is too much
space becomes smaller
light gets brighter
crushing
the jaws expanding, contracting
my black hole, no longer

certainly this is death

the sounds
my head feels separated from my body
my shoulder pushes through
sliding out
embracing the fluids that once concealed me
my death has given way to life
my crushing black hole gives way to light
light gives way to sight

life,light, sight
welcome to the middle passage
birth

CONGRATULATIONS TO ME ON 30 YRS OF SURVIVING THE PASSAGE...

JOURNEY ON

Is it just me or am I seeing more mathematics in this election. My mom would always say that we could never beat our counterpart in the number and words game because they make up the numbers, words and the rules. She would say that they make the rules, break the rules and suspend the rules at the same time.

After my Wiz post and the announcement of Palin as the Republican Candidate, I became aware of the idea the obvious "get Hilary votes" trick. Later it occured to me that it became more of an election, once again, between the two minorities in government, Obama and Palin.

As it occurs to me McCain and Biden cancels one another out leaving us back at Obama vs. Palin (Hilary). As I heard at a resturant in Jersey City, while eating with a friend, a young latin girl asked one of her friend who said he would vote for Obama in the primary , "You mean you would vote for a Black over a woman?" Once again race is injected into the Campaign and it is not as subtle as one may believe.

Maybe I am wrong in my views. Therefore, I am open to the possibility of changing my views. Please let me know what you think.

At this point when I see Country First (McCain's running slogan) and the American flag it reminds me of stories of the Civil War and Civil Rights movement. It sounds as if they are saying "save our country from this nigger" and the flag takes on a different connotation as if it were a Confederate flag.
