FIRST QUESTION
Is our existence an accident
Of evolution?
Or is it the
Creator's plan that the
Black man must live out
His destiny and overcome the
Curse he put upon himself
Through ignorance and disobedience
Of Divine Law?

BLACK HISTORY POEM PROJECT
HISTORY 101
History 101 should be read as
His story 101 and is based
On lies and misconceptions
That Black people were lead to
Believe as the truth that would
Set us all free one day
But it didn't
It couldn't
As a result we have
Witnessed truth crushed
To earth rising again

BACKSTABBBERS - THE O'JAYS
2/1 - Saturday 12:11 am
First time long time since I spoke to my ex this evening. We had a small family crisis that needed to be resolved or else it could have been blown out of proportion. Although I was nipping it in the bud it was good to hear from her because I got an angle of the incident which I didn't have before. Her commentary resolved the issue for me. It was like I thought but I couldn't prove my point without an eye witness. She was that. Basically we talked on that incident and my beef incident from the other day.
8:04 pm
First day of "Black History Month." It means different things to different people and it has a very special place in my heart.
Been around for a long while going back to when it was a week long. I go some special plan to honor our shining Black Kings and Queens by writing a poem a day for the month of February. I just got the idea and impulse earlier today and I will see where it goes. Hopefully some good stuff will come out of it.

BEAUTY'S ONLY SKIN-DEEP - The Temptations
1/31- Friday 7:45 am
My blood pressure is up, but I can't say it's because I've had heated words lately. Not a big deal. The issue is settled for now, as in all things.
If certain people decide they want to stay in isolation, cool. I'm not looking for anything. I'm settled-in with what's on my plate, and so it won't make me a difference.
As it has always been with me, I take all comers who can handle what I bring to the table: We can be close, or we can be far. It won't change what I'm doing. Of course, if you bringing something extra special, then I will be there for you in every way that I can.

MOVIE DAY
Lonewolf's Movie Review - Movies I watched on cable - 2013
"ALL THINGS FALL APART" Dir: Mario Van Peebles
With 50 Cent, Angela Bassett, and the director. A very poignant movie about a football player, super-star potential, Heisman Trophy candidate who finds out he has cancer, and now he has to adjust to a different way of living. Good story-line.
"JOHN Q" (1999) Dir: Nick Cassavetes
Somewhat believable story about a man (Denzel Washington) who takes over a hospital/ER room, in order to get a heart transplant operation for his son.
Memorable line: "I'm not gonna bury my son. My son's gonna bury me."
High point in the movie: When all his efforts have failed, John Q comes to the conclusion that if no heart donor was available, he would kill himself and donate HIS heart for his son. That scene was the story's "Black Moment."

THE COLDEST DAY OF MY LIFE - The Stylistics
I don't want beef with my baby girl. She grown now and bout to be on her own. She has to understand that I'm here for her; just follow my lead. I'm not tryna keep her tied to my apron strings...Yeh I got those, but she has to know when it's time to stop the foolishness.
What I mean is to let her peeps make the move in her direction. SHE'S THE PRIZE. That nigga not! SHE IS! When she realize who she really is, she will carry herself differently.
For now she got to learn on her own, and the way life goes, she has a lot of lessons to learn, and a long way to go before she catches on.
