Getting It Together - 6/27/09

Just catching up...again. Thursday was too rough. Ugh. Here's some freestyles from Friday night.

Never been one to become enchanted with the physical, I find attachment to it to be quizzical, the path to enlightenment is illuminated by the spiritual, prompting the Triumvirate of mind, body, and soul to become equal, allowing one to ascend to a state of clarity and understanding something like your life's prequel, it prefaces all you've done and replays it back, showing you all it took for you to get on track.

When it came to society I was never let in, so I stood at the ledge end, screaming to the world that I want to be a legend, took a deep breath in, said a prayer for my brethren, best end for me is one of a deaf end, unheard so the pain is lessened, let's end this because I'll never be how the rest been, if I fall from this height I won't wrest then, just cave my chest in, tired of living pain, guess I'll rest then.

They say I have a way with words, I get away with words while most won't even stay with words, I slay with words, mold ideas like clay with words, will go to war any day with words, and articulate what I say with words, while some may struggle with words, tuggle with words, become muzzled by words, puzzled by words, confuzzled by words, all I do is hustle by words, hustling my words, pushing them so they're heard.

Super Catch-Up! - 6/21/09

"Insecurity is the termite of the psyche, that which eats away at the foundation of self."

"Humility is the moon that keeps the tides of self-esteem at bay."

"Prevarication is akin to prestidigitation; both take skill, can fool even the most perspicacious of individuals, build unstable realities, and will fail you when relied upon."

"Live every day as if it's your first; try new things, be open-minded, and have no regrets; live like you're new to the world, out to make a future yet out to enjoy the present. Kismet doesn't underscore that like it does 'living every day like it's your last,' nor do you feel like you have to do the most. Living like it's your first is just that: LIVING, freely."

"Cerebral stimulation is the result of deep cerebral penetration, the likes of which give the indication that you and he are on the same level of information, which has an inherent inclination, if both have been through maturation, to lead to infatuation."

In response to 'how many men can make your soul burn, your mind jolt and dig deeper than physical attraction?' - "The answer would be very few, the paradise of mental satisfaction seems very new, it is a place we once barely knew, but now know very well, the tale of cerebral penetration is one only time can tell, and once the story is told, the mystery will unfold, it shall become a man's goal, and be fervently extolled, or so we can only hope, such thoughts traverse a tightrope, walking from rarity to a point where the frequency of it and infidelity reach parity, a point where two hearts and minds reach unbridled clarity."

"If you think I'm like another guy you're incorrect, I have a one of a kind intellect, forged where immense knowledge and profound thought intersect, equipped with the ability to allow reason and spirituality to interject, that permits me to elicit eloquent statements and philosophies that keep me upon a path from which no one can inflect."

"Have you ever seen Farces of eXplanation, Controlled National News, Centrally Broadcast Smut, and Mind-numbing TeleVision just to name a few? How about Visual Homogenization 1, Black Estrangement Television, the American Bombast Cavalcade, any that I'm missin? There is so much to see, and even more to be known, but what you need to know, isn't being shown."

Just A Freestyle... - 6/21/09

Sometimes I sit and wonder why I'm misunderstood
Guess I need to get this understood
I've never been average by any means
And I've always had a different view of many things
Been a genuine gentleman unlike any seen
My peers never accepted me at any scene,
Seen I was far beyond a par peon,
So they tried to tear me down with anything
Thought they had me,
Except I accept the hate with a smile, never grimacing
See the thing,
Is that I know I'm not meant to be like the rest
I know I'm meant to be something like the best
And like the best, I train hard
While the hate came hard
Went out with friends
And was treated like I co-starred
In the movie of life
But there are no Oscars
No Academy Awards,
Just some people with Benzes
And others that live near apartments with boards
The majority is forgotten because of the interests of few
Call government a macrocosm,
They don't represent me and you
You and I, we bear witness to suicide
A black man killing another at the club,
Just to get his crew inside
Through this I,
Struggle with the tuggle of right and wrong,
Wrongs can't be righted though rights can be wronged
Nights can be long, when your intellect is so far gone
Pondering things some have never seen, leaving the physical at home
Alone, which is how I sometimes feel
Wandering aimlessly,
Wondering shamelessly If I am the only one that keeps it real
Cheap it feels, to hear kind words from people
People who think the less of me with minds so feeble
Not being able to grasp even the most ergonomic of concepts
They try to belittle me because I advocate the bettering of one's self
And I don't place much value on one's wealth,
So they write me off as one self
Just a kid,
Not realizing what they did,
Proving my existence...
I am self-evident,
No possibility of my actions being feigned
I can't always be understood,
Nor can I be explained,
But I am brilliant
Effulgent in the light of candor,
A conversely axiomatic truth by name.

"Character and trust are the brick and mortar that fortify the truth against the disparaging conflagrations of prevarications."

"Want everything, desire nothing."

"She was a beautiful girl, the type to make you Fall, had a heart as cold as Winter, could only hope that it would thaw; that was quite a bummer but she had a body hotter than Summer, had to Spring quickly because I knew every guy would want her."

"All these ladies are trying to find a man that's recession-proof, don't care what he looks like as long as he's a successful dude; won't even care about his attitude, as long as he has the money to change their latitude; why must these ladies spend time on such triviality, I'll definitely cut you a check: one for reality."

"To forgive is to retain the piece of yourself you would lose by harboring resentment or a grudge."

Excerpts From An Interesting Discussion - 6/6/09

So one of my friends says that she thinks guys are confusing...

I have to admit, I agree with her. The majority of us are controlled by our penises, something women don't have. That being said, they can't really understand some of the stupid shit we do because they don't understand the motivation behind it. Females are far, far less confusing. They may be complicated, but nothing about them is baffling. They ... Read Moreare beautiful forms of life graced with sensitivity and intelligence, simply looking for someone to love them and more importantly appreciate their flaws. Just my thoughts. :)

Please pardon me if this is TMI, but I'd like to know how you all feel about this: it is my belief that men are more confusing because of what I said, but it goes deeper than that. Penises are external, basically appendages. That being said, any sensation is on the outside, no matter how good it feels to him. Vaginas are inside of women, thus they feel what's going on and are more attached to it, because they have to let a man in. This is why you see guys trying to just "hit it and quit it." Sex can be impersonal because guys are very hormonal, and simply 'stick it in', for lack of better words. There's nothing going IN him, but he can just stick it in someone else if he chooses, so he doesn't get attached and let's his penis (hormones) control him. There's no vulnerability for man...no caution, no anything. He just sticks it in and keeps moving, which is another reason why he doesn't get attached. Now to tell me that a guy isn't more confusing after all that, I'd need some backing.

That's why I get onto guys I know...for you to take the most intimate thing on this planet, sex, and turn it into just personal pleasure can be very hurtful for a woman...guys do not understand that woman literally has to 'let you in.' Unless she has no self-respect, she's not letting you in for no reason. But for you to do just do it and act like ... Read Moreit's nothing basically crushes whatever feelings she has or had. This is why I think women are smarter than men, because men don't know this kind of stuff. A lot of men FOOL women, but to fool someone doesn't take smarts, it takes cleverness and slickness.

Then commitment comes up...

You make an excellent point. Guys are non-committal nowadays. And I personally put that on the guys themselves. They sit here idolizing rappers, thugs, ballplayers and such, and attempt to live like them. No offense to them, but they aren't role models. No one in the Black community is preaching commitment to these young men out here. I've been ... Read Moredoing it, but one man can't change his peers. One of the biggest reasons behind this though, is that the general thought amongst guys is that "p*ssy is p*ssy" and that that's all a young lady is good for. Guys don't want to commit because they don't think there's a point: why commit to one when I can hit 3 or girls in a week? This lack of female appreciation is appalling, and disheartens me....but I work to change it every day.

Then "why do guys wanna 'talk' in secret?"

I'm gonna catch some serious flack for this one, but I think it needs to be said: SOME of these guys out here that claim "they don't want people in their business" REALLY mean that they don't want any females to know that their 'talking' to you, so that they can still run game without being obligated to one young lady.

Just Thoughts... - 6/2/09

There is a
New meaning to suicide
That coincides with,
The death of self
See we pursue this wealth,
Expecting it to be quick and easy
But when it goes wrong,
We start acting slick and greasy,
Like the food we eat,
2-piece the chicken
And go after the breast,
Knowing full well you're not living your best
But when someone else is,
You want to get hatred in your chest,
Chest to chest, we all are one
Black people must be united, our cause is never done
But to kill another black,
Fill another stat,
Turn a stereotype into a fact,
That is suicide...
To kill him makes you look worse,
You fail to realize you might be the next in a hearse,
Conventional wisdom expects you to take a woman's purse,
Rather than the do the Obama and be a historic first,
To settle for government money is to be a slave,
A slave to money and the shackles of waiting to be paid,
The more of your people you kill
The more your love for self will fade,
A progressive and degenerate suicide from which you can't be saved,
But you don't care...
You think a 'nerd' being rich isn't fair
You prefer the lies of Plies
To the truth of educated youth
You think your way out is the booth,
Or the rock on the block,
But all you're doing out there is losing to the clock
Time waits for no man, and as you don't get rich
You don't get back all that time you thought you were the 'shit'
It's about time you got flushed,
And gained a pride that can't be hushed
But no...
You have to be a thug and get tatted
And live up to your peers
It truly is a shame, but
You won't understand until your later years...
By then your innocence will be long gone
And your love for self will have died
Black culture
Is one of suicide.

Marble - 6/2/09

What is forged under pressure
And heated situations
Yet is one of nature's toughest creations,
Evolved through metamorphosis
But unchanged at the core
What remains at the core,
Is a shine, a beacon made in the dark
That glimmers like the beat of an indomitable heart
And at the heart of it all
Is that through the fusion
There are overt and pristine intrusions
Pieces that came together but didn't coalesce
But oh what a bless-
Ing, what a wonderful thing,
How the imperfections came to be what were most beautiful.
Oh my dear, how like marble you are.
Radiant brown skin that shines,
Success and failures metamorphose your mind,
While your heart glimmers with poise and pride,
In your streaks you should confide...
They make you so beautiful in my eyes,
You are perfectly imperfect,
An example of how perfect could never be worth it
Oh my dear, how like marble you are.

-A. Lewis
