“I see fingers, hands and shades of faces,
Reachin up and not quite touchin the promised land,
I hear pleas and prayers and a desperate whisper sayin,
Oh Lord, please give us a helpin hand,
Way down in the background,
I can see frustrated souls of cities burnin,
And all across the water vapor,
I see weapons barkin out the sting of death,
And up in the clouds I can imagine UFO’s jumpin themselves,
Laughin they sayin,
Those people so uptight, they sure know how to make a mess
Back in the saloon my tears mix and mildew with my drink,
I can’t really tell my feet from the sawdust on the floor,
But as far as I know, they may even try to wrap me up in cellophane and try and sell me
Brothers help me, and don’t worry about lookin at the score”
-Jimi Hendrix (Somewhere Over the Rainbow)
“Word Is Born, Your Kids Miss You When You’re Gone
But Life Still Goes On, You Think They Give A Fuck?”
-Public Enemy (41:19)
i wasn’t born
to be hated
i was Created
without need
to be integrated
from the heavens
i came
with no choices
to come into these dimensions
of tribulation and pain
becoming one moving body
is not easy
when freewill and quantum possibilities
can be at odds with events that take place ordinarily –
change takes place naturally
infinitely
it is for the visionary
to explode the ordinary
the bomb that we need
should wipe out wickedness and greed
the bomb that we should drop
should purge all ignorance on the spot
the only way we can truly dissolve this rot
is to know each other from heart to heart
countenance to countenance
allow compassion to flood our thoughts
synchronize our motion
navigate the vast cosmic ocean
become
become
become
become the body of heaven
you do not need Jesus –
you need to be
the Jesus in you –
Spiritual rationality
scientific reality
beyond religiosity
beyond tribe and nationality
becoming one moving body
evolves the highest mentality
reveals the greatest cosmic harmony
brings the practice and principles of the heavenly
away from the diabolical manipulation of mythology
back into an enlightened, realized, workable methodology
Become
One
Moving
Body

“When I see a Negro kicking off radicals, I know he is either dumb or crooked. Conservatism is the Negro’s worst enemy. The South is the most conservative part of the country, and therefore it is the graveyard of Negro rights . . . Conservatism breeds every kind of prejudice.”
-Melvin B. Tolson (“Caviar and Cabbage: Selected Columns by Melvin B. Tolson from the Washington Tribune, 1937-1944)
“Imagine there’s no dissent.
No way to speak your mind.
No Confidential consultation.
All constitutional rights declined.”
-Dick Hebdige
on a black and white tv
i watched brains
blown out of JFK
and the new fascist rulers of law
can never tell me what i saw –
still wounded
by the sight
it only prepared me
for a darker night
MLK
and Malcolm X
hatred, murder, war, and death
within a never-nation
tormented and vexed
how does one begin to process
an era of such accelerated oppression
and technological progress
a quantum bleed
affecting the entire human mass
from Vietnam
to Afghanistan
Bosnia
to Rwanda
oh,
what Earth Mother trauma
what saved me
was seeing Miles and Marley
what saved me
was seeing Oscar Brown Jr. and
Harry Belafonte
what saved me
was seeing Sun Ra, Dizzy, and Art Blakey
with the Baltimore Left Bank Jazz Society
what saved me
was seeing Sidney Poitier and Spike Lee
what saved me
was seeing Flip Wilson and Bill Cosby,
Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy,
Whoopi Goldberg and Moms Mabley
what saved me
was seeing John and Yoko together with Chuck Berry
on national tv
what saved me
was seeing Sly Stone and Muhammad Ali
together on national tv
what saved me
was seeing the Smothers Brothers hour of comedy –
Pat Paulson, Professor Irwin Corey
on national tv
what saved me
was seeing Jimi Hendrix and Fela Anikulapo Kuti
what saved me
was seeing James Baldwin and Walter Mosley
what saved me
was forging a Sol-Ark memory –
these are some
of the energies
that have saved me
more than the Black President
i have lived to see
Earth Mother
has such
a wounded heart
because of us
we of this time
have been given
this moment, this movement
for greater reasons we may not imagine
all of this madness –
convert it to healing power
make fertile new gardens
bring forth stronger blossoming flowers
we who have lived it
remain, to give this
to reveal and heal sickness
to be an example, a living gift

“When the people lead
the leaders they will have to follow
and all their lies and their alibies
they will have to swallow
and it’s you that has the authority
for the one who is right
is the majority”
-Ben Harper (People Lead)
“Rockets, moon shots,
spend it on the have nots”
-Marvin Gaye(Inner City Blues)
hearing
following
envisioning
a greater calling
spatial
Solar whispering
earth, air, and sea
allowing star systems
perceiving, sensing
to lead
it is within
the noise
of the void
a new language
is poised
to create a firmament
of enlightenment
i always try to
be at
the beat
go out
to come back
to be at
the beat
when things
seem bleak
i know where to
be at
to be saved
by the
beat
this noise
is needed
to breathe –
it is of the omni-everything
from which all
are conceived
Creation has placed you
where you were meant to be
what remains
is your responsibility
to dare
bathe in the noise
experiencing the baptism
of the void

“Throughout the centuries
there were men
who took first steps
down new roads
armed with nothing
but their own vision”
-Ayn Rand
“Maggie was a buk and gain
Following the hookin’ game
Boo-lah rooka hook and chain
Maggie’s eyes could cook a man”
-Redbone
“In any compromise between good and evil, it is only evil that can profit.”
-Ayn Rand
dreaming
is the spontaneous realm
of a spiritual
communication system
visions
are the blurred lines between
the harsh realities
and the enlightened dreams
you can never
escape crisis
if you continue to follow
the same destructive vices –
building the same
genocidal/autogenocidal devices
human-buzzards
are always searching for corpses
dreamtime is subconscious meditation
Spiritual-vision elevation
a metaphysical guidance system
ever offering pathways through desolation
with transcendental wisdom
you can always thread the needle
to separate the wise from the foolish of freedom
and know the difference between pimps and real people

“Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.”
-Romans 13:8
“Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none. Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumour shall be upon rumour; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.”
Ezekiel 7:25-26
it seems
the more we need to heal,
the more sicknesses
we create and reveal
every human
has an evolutionary responsibility
to transcend who we are compartmentally
and connect to that which came before
we came into existence tribally
become
the introspective One
and you will find true healing and balance
when you are done
return to that rapport
between your Self and Creation –
that Sacred Oneness
before duality and union
everyone is a god-connect –
a medium and mystic
if you go beyond your mortal teachings
giving the cosmos divine respect
to explore
your own vision in the void
will reveal the core
of your god and lord
the ancient and future
is beyond position and place
time and distance mean nothing
through infinite, expansive space
karmic energy
knows no bounds of reality
