N Perfection Barber Shop 2 Term Dream modified

Poetry Performed at Busboy & Poet and the Perfection Barbershop in Centreville VA this was me trying to get over my fear of public speaking in front of a crowd of people I knew and didn’t know

Let me know what you thought of it.

Yo Listen Up

Yo Listen Up

Riding in the car with me and my son, going to have fun, listening to the WPGC, as Flexx & Rane are honoring Dr. Martin Luther King by taking out time to discuss why the death rate in PG County is so high.

 As people are calling in, to our chagrin, this guy called to talk about robbing and taking people out, killing them at will, just so he could chill.

Now that was Real!!!

Then Reverend Al Sharpton called in and Rane asked about being a snitch and he explained the Difference,

That being sick of the violence against, is not a snitch, it’s one another tired of us hurting our sisters and brothers, people calling in with their opinions, blaming our government & how Black’s people could never be equal because of our mind set & that’s that.

I would like to remind all kinds, that attitude is not blind, it is all in the mind & how you spend your time.

Going to jail & trying to get bailed or sleeping in casket & going to hell or learning a new skill, that does not include drug deals.

So why do we have to Die, ask my son 2 I?

Because some are to lazy to try and once they do something wrong or make a mistake in others eyes it’s like kissing your dreams good bye, so it’s easier to take a life,  now your on the phone crying to your friend, sister, mother or wife,

Asking her to write and wait while you do life.

Is this what Dr King mean about his dream?  Na,

I don’t think even he was aware, that we would be our biggest scare and continue to hurt ourselves.

Where is that brotherly Luv like we used to have, like when we  see one another and give each other hugs, all we do now is judge, all of us.

Money & Power can change you within the hour, especially if you have been burnt before, thinking you can’t take no more.

All of these different clicks, kids thinking it's cool to pick, how much more sh!t,  Congress and the Senate tearing each other apart, after the Arizona  shooting, now they have a heart.  Going nowhere, telling us life isn’t fair, but when another person is robbed, shot or killed how are they different from the Hill.

If we spent more time trying to stimulate minds, I bet we would fine, Creativity in all kinds

Like drinking wine, without crying or having a ball without blaming it on the alcohol

The possibilities would be endless, if we could get pass the regrets like racial slurs from Rednecks & KKKs and stop Beating up Gays & Respect people ways.

 You don’t have to like it, nor do you have to care, but until then how are we supposed to get there?

Dr King said it all, by showing us How Peace takes the Biggest Balls and getting up when you fall.

It’s Your Call MoPoiDC

2 Term Dream

I had a dream, that our President  Barack Obama served 2 Terms as it seem,

I mean with everything that is happening.  As he restores the damages caused by the good ole’ boys,

 the ones who started wars, who made us sick with this Anthrax,

I’ll give you a hint, and some of them are independences.

 Who are they anyway? A group of people that look for reasons to sway depending on what's popular today.  

How many of you were saved by the decisions our Prez made?

 Bank & Automobile bell-out, No doubt, Hearth care is what it’s all about as some of you are saying “Hush your mouth”

Stimulus Package and Unemployment benefits, yea, big government what’s next?

Pass a bill for this oil spill, all that money set aside at their free will. Get real!!! & feel the zeal, of more troops coming and not being killed in the battle field!!!

& hey what about our Veterans and their day.  As we celebrate to demonstrate, how we appreciate the time they gave and since this is better then the old Vietnam ways,  I guess it make it ok.

No wonder we can’t get anywhere, listening to this propaganda scare, no jobs here. 

Don’t blame that man; I President is doing all he can. 

 But how quickly we forget, after he saved us from - What’s this?

Instead of giving our Prez a pound, we turn around and clown, with all of this stuff coming out of our mouths Taxes and compromising pouts, forgetting what this is all about.  

How are we supposed to regain our clouts to other in the world if we show doubt? Instead of ways of working it out.  Aren’t you sick of this fuss & stuff especially when we have a President we trust? Yeaaa, we have a uniter amongst us.

 Let’s keep in mind, that this may be the only time that we will find a Black man running this country in his prime, get off your behind & give our Prez more time. 

This mess was not created over night, plus we have President who is not afraid to fight, for Peace and Equality and doing what’s right. 

Even if it means being Prez for 1 night. &

For all of you old heads, like my man JJ (from Good times) said, That’s dyn-no-mite
