mute

dont say things anymore
overlooked misunderstood
misheard not heard
fobbed off taken for puppy show
silence is golden
wont break it through speaking
talk too much anyway
is the critique i receive
so now use writing
let emotions blaze 
through a page
dont ask me to speak
we wont agree and thats peak
for you and me
have become a selective mute
only speak in certain circles
where dont have to watch my words

rehearse life's show
a theatre act so act well and choose the right script
the wrong writer will have you doing flips
spinning out 
wondering whats it about
speak mean write wit clout
drinking a dragon stout
yes im vulnerable
not untouchable omnipotent or omniscient
even though i see things
dont say things through words
let the ink speak

a bLack mAn tHing

story behind this, in a meeting i was informed that i have a 'Black Man 'Thing'' when i asked her to clarify what this 'Black Man Thing' is she struggled making vague references to Black Men in her life. Every interaction is a writing opportunity...

what exactly is 
a Black Man Thing
is it any different from a
white, asian, latino man thing
any different from a Black Woman Thing
please clarify what this Black Man Thing is
a chip on my shoulder
walk with a certain swagger
talk with a certain linga
touch fists dont shake hands
oh i see its the nuances
the isms
my professionalism called into question
oh i get it i dont show enough teeth
acceptable nigger syndrome
if i was a white chick presenting the same shit
what would you call it
im so pissed
no not defensive
enraged with rage blazing
hotter than the sun in me
about to combust internally
oh...i see thats that Black Man Thing....

systematic misinstruction

the travesty of educational philosophy
when kids are valued monetary
4g you tell me 
is each students worth
putting a price on kids heads
is that what schools about?
struggle empathically with
such a materialistic philosophy
from the core flawed fundamentally
detrimentally
then we raise kids who aren't
independent free thinkers or even think at all
dependent servants
public schools feed the machine
creates new age slaves
not taught to think
but to remember
whats the true role of an educator
to make kids intelligent regurgitators
higher education now becomes a class act
cos the proletariats cant access that

resolutions

no resolutions
resolutions are not solutions
made in haste then broken
aint setting no targets
none of that 
new year new me ish
no positive affirmations
i will however have great expectations
no promises unrealistic
keep things basic
read more watch less
listen more talk less
