Chance/Dance of Discourse

under the invisible hand

“fashist an di attack
noh baddah worry ’bout dat
fashist an di attack
wi wi’ fite dem back
fashist an di attack
den wi countah-attack
fashist an di attack
den wi drive dem back
we gonna smash their brains in
cause they ain’t got nofink in ‘em . . .”
-Linton Kwesi Johnson

“We, who have been blinded,
are not blind
and sense when not to
trust the mind.”
-James Baldwin

it is wickedness
and not the rise and fall of markets
that brings us to throw fists
that destroys our bliss
that devolves our human-ness

we must stop dying
working for a living
fascists grow fat and rich receiving
the sweat and blood we humbly give them

it is time for studying working systems
giving reverence to those of wisdom
putting oppressors and slavemasters in coffins
preparing minds and souls for a higher ascension

being under an invisible hand
renders not the visible
know and feel the right time to stand
push back against humiliation and trouble

smash the parasites upon the working class
smash the phony representatives of righteousness
the planet is telling us it is time to act
wealth and poverty are both carried on our backs
know the facts, do not allow Creation to be crashed

when someone can control your mind
and control what you say
you have surrendered your life
as they have numbered your days
you become nothing more than a lowly slave

some things are heaven-sent
learn how to blend our talents
some things are heaven-sent
learn how to blend our talents
all hands working together
create and make Heaven evident
build a heavenly reality that is apparent
establish an everlasting heavenly monument

america swallows its old, whole . . .

“Balance is my thing
The sun the
Snow, the wind and rain
Must come”
- Funkadelic

“If you don’t like the effect
Don’t produce the cause”
- Funkadelic

america eats its young,
but america swallows its old,
whole . . .

unless
you are tooooooo
FUNKY
FUNKEY
FUN KEY
PHUNKAY

unless
your cosmic vibrations
stomp stone
steppin high in her eye killer shoes
to decode uncode becoolness
beyond infinite realms
illuminating dimensionalities
of realities
no matter what any one
or any thing believes

it is on the One
infinitely

hold
to the whole
with or without
the w

bus i nest

“lament for the poet
swallowed by the cracks in the street
flowers for the dead musician
strangled by a bill collector
in a bank parking lot”
-Kamau Daaood

we are
soooo busy
fixing broken things
and
breaking fixed things
and creating things
that become fixations
that we have not
the time
to stop
and think
how thankful we should be
for not being extinct

some people
love being the bosses
some people are mindful
of being workhorses

in a slave/master society
among New World enemies
you must continually
feed your Spirit and build your family

through existence, many times
call for transformation
many times
call for reinvention
to follow the eternal laws
of evolution

the heathen mentality
forever tries to bring holiness to the greedy
who only seek
what they can take away
they put you in a box
to make you easier to contain and carry
conquering and crushing to make you believe
that their rulership is necessary

the Earthship was created for all of us
atmosphere, oceans, and dust
moving through space
vessel of endless grace
place of the poet
nothing poor

do not allow demons
to degrade your Spirit
or diminish your Soul
or separate you
from the God of us all
our Mother/Father/Creation-centre
magic living crystal ball

be its best
take its best
we are its best
protect its best
all that we will know in this form
is from our
Creation’s nest
our first gate
to endlessness
this should be
our only business

write-fight

“What kind of culture names its federal police headquarters after a virulently racist, homophobic, closeted cross-dresser who was responsible for the deaths and/or ruined lives of thousands of men and women who dared to dream of a better world?”
-inga muscio

write and fight
it’s the right fight
through thought-process
Nature’s test
to survive
as civilized
to question history
and cultural slavery
for the continuity
of the liberation of humanity

write
and fight
it’s
the right fight
