It’s like…. An apple pie with a crust so flaky That you eat very little of it. They’re nice folks, some have nothing under their crust. Or ugly things…. I’ve never been to Warsaw ghetty, I’d swear I saw the gestapo tearing down tents Herding their dwellers into camps…. Oh, I’ve seen filth lying inContinue reading “Californiaflaky”

Who are we?
People walking, while people sleep in the streets. Is that an emotion, A sense of helplessness? A powerlessness, despite having wealth Or fame. Are we a people anymore? Are we human, Are you human?
Airport 992
I ride buses to get to work, to visit friends. I ride the 992 to get to work, But more often I desire to jump on a plane and fly home. Here, black are seemingly always poor and of lower class. I’m only here to make money, Only be abused.
the needy, a poem.
LA is grittier than San Diego; more smoke cigarettes, more women wearin’ tight jean shorts. Some are wealthy Some are not. All are needy of being human. In the 2nd Confederacy, they burn books and women are ordered to give birth, with babies holding bibles….
Character Flaws, a poem.
When people betray me, it takes me too long to forgive. I don’t mind poverty. What would I do with wealth when there is so much suffering. I’m a Blackman in America, (and no one will date me.) I’m Bi, and no one will date me! I’m too brave to be an atheist and AbrahamContinue reading “Character Flaws, a poem.”

But what I see in San Diego everyday makes Michigan’s homelessContinue reading “04.28.2022”

I love science fiction, and will likely die loving science fiction. But the thing about science fiction is that it intends to be a crystal ball of the future. And of late, that crystal ball isn’t showing a good picture. The thought of there still being a gulf of income inequality and poverty disturbs me,Continue reading “11.13.2021”

I often wonder at times why I still live in a racist country that is also said to be the leader of the free world. That statement above is so laughble that I wonder if it’s worth writing about. Then I wonder what does ‘freedom’ mean? Freedom can’t mean that it is allowable to restrictContinue reading “11.5.2021”
…the poor has always suffered….
“….join my army or else….” “….be my wife or else….” “….pray to me or go to hell….” “….work for me or starve,become homeless….” In Africa children minecolbot for cellphones held by latte sipping ladies. Is it the mentalityOf humanityorhumans need tokeep someone down? People sleepin the streets,dirty,seeminglyunseen incommercial doorways But life has neverbeen better.

I realize that I write as form mercilessly self torture. That my writings could help change someone’s life by perhaps not repeating my mistakes. But there is no way that I can tell that people have changed their lives because of something I have posted. But I write. It is my hope that there isContinue reading “08.12.2021”
