nameless space

i have put this into sections. what i've observed, what i've experienced and what i think we/i need to do with the "nameless space" the sections are down to your interpretation

nameless space
can't name it
if you attempt to name it, 
it ceases to be it

we attempt to use things to fill it
only to receive temporary relief which leads to more grief
aim to numb pain self-medicating ways 

my mind strays, my mind sprays
touch base with endless waves
it's cold cain
numbed like cocaine
cause pain

existential angst
meaning 
meaninglessness
fearfully fearless
bottomless abyss

can't be filled with trinkets
do our utmost to avoid it
jab cross slip it
still can't elude it
can be forgotten its elusive 
far from exclusive
we all feel it

will, meaning and purpose fulfil it?
that's the million quid question

it causes internal conflict

do best to be aware of it
accept it
embrace it
befriend it
integrate and assimilate it
go into it and allow yourself to feel it

introspection

the noisiness of silence
causes internal violence
stuck in my own thoughts
a terrifying place filled with landmines
nah a beautiful place 
similar to paradise
nah an afro filled with headlice
a mind riddled with vermin
an intelligent cretin
aiding and abetting
journeying through crevices
battle self arch-nemesis
befriend myself make me my ally
bear witness to my alibi
don't follow the dichotomy
i'm whole holistically me
experience the subterranean depths
from the council estate of mind to the buddha mindstate
pessimistically optimystic
nah a realist
with surrealist thoughts

86,400

i watched a short video about having 86,400 deposited in our account everyday which we spend, whether we have invested it or not it's gone never to return. everyday we have 86,400 seconds how do we spend them, off the back of that i wrote this....

i'm invested in every morning with 86,400
which i spend daily
sometimes spent well quickly
and i gain returns other times
i've spent it frivolously flippantly
at times it drags
when i'm somewhere i don't wanna be
sometimes 86,400 aint enough for me
so i try and rob into tomorrows fees
only to realise i haven't robbed
i've made space
with the day's pace

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
