A Simple Story About a Man, a Rocket and Going to the Moon

There was once a man who wanted to build a rocket and travel to the moon. He was ridiculed for the idea because he was neither a rocket scientist nor did he have the funds to build a rocket. The man, understanding the truth in the ridicule tried to engage rocket scientists and investors alike but they too balked at the idea and showed something even worst; disinterest. Seeing there was no way around it the man decided he had to get his PhD.

After achieving that first goal the man realised he still lacked funding and now owed a debt for his years of educational pursuit. So, he proceeded to try every way he knew how to raise the “money” he needed. When asked what he was doing the man always responded by saying, “Nothing important.” Remembering the ridicule of previous years he thought it best to continue his … Continue reading

Opinions

Everyone has an opinion or perspective. Through my life I’ve been judged by the clothes I wear, the way I show affection even by the way I express myself. Either my clothes were too nice for the occasion or not nice enough. Either they were cheap or too expensive. Either I was showing off or I was dressing like a bum. I’ve heard that the way I show affection or even simple emotion is too brash or it’s too much. On the other hand I’ve heard that it’s not enough or it needs more emphasis because it’s too subtle. I’ve had people be offended by the way I express myself. They say it’s too crude or it’s too rigid during confrontations. Then I’ve had people say it’s too soft and leans too much towards leniency in situations of conflict.

There will always be something missing from someone or a group … Continue reading

So Lost

It’s crazy how you’re so lost
Dying from the outside in
Self absorbed nymphomaniac
Who thinks she’s a woman

It’s crazy how you’re so lost
Thinking you know so much
‘Cause you have a little vision
Black girl
Wannabe white girl
Searching for herself in everyone

It’s crazy how you’re so lost
Who are you looking at
Lying on your back
Do you think he actually cares
Your pussy doesn’t matter
In the grand scheme of things

It’s crazy how you’re so lost
Talking about being empowered
Your leg spread across the map
I was like you but then I grew
Built myself and changed

It’s crazy how you’re so lost
Saying I’m not normal or black
When I use my brain
Not my ass
To gain success and assets

It’s crazy that you can’t see you’re lost
So
Tell me how smart can you be
If all you understand … Continue reading

Loved Once

I write for myself
And my loved ones
Sometimes
Even the people I loved once
Because a famous guy once said
Better to love and lose
Than to never love once
I loved once
Lost twice
They weren’t pros
So I don’t see cons
We couldn’t get along
Because of the tips that they be on
Told me it was too hard
Sometimes they had to ease on
So let me stop
Before I get too deep
Get my sleaze on
Keep your sleeves on
Because if I imprint
It’s a leave on
And because I said it like that
You wouldn’t believe that
I loved once
But if I tell you about her
And the way she looked in light lace
Just out of the shower
Smile on her bright face
The way she rushed to my arms
To cover the wide space
You’d realise that I’m not loveless… Continue reading

Just Once

I write for myself
And my loved ones
Sometimes
Even the people I loved once
Even when it’s a thank you
To the people who showed love
Even if it was just once
Because all it takes
Is just once
Especially if you do it
For one of my loved ones
Even if it was just once
Thank you
Because when there were dark clouds
You made a brighter day
Gave me a reason
To smile and say
May
Be
The future’s not so far away
Lifted the burden
Or made it light as hay
I’m grateful
Is what I’m trying to say
For the love you showed
I won’t forget it
Even if t was just once
As far as I’m concerned
You’re one of the just ones
And you’ve made the world a better place
Because the love that you showed
If I’m not able to return it… Continue reading
