Guns and more guns need to be put down Bullets should be replaced with education being the sound It’s time to become a success Yet it’s up to our young people to put that to the test Their testimony surrounding confess Everyone has capabilities to learn However, one must adapt to theories forming concepts Imagine having a college degree for all to see Having confident being your own decree The movement of action in making education what it should be A mind is a terrible thing to waste But the key is to make education your base Former President Barack Obama had the right idea, “You Can” But the new continued motto, “You shall Until” A young man at a United ***** College Fund Raiser said this vital point, “Blacker the college Sweeter the education” Education being the unity, but bring back to the community Determination in step out and explore Seeing one’s horizon but beyond the shore A college education is an opportunity being a chance Knowing the theories is how one will advance Higher Education means being one step ahead But the opposition wants minds to be misled Prove to yourself what education can do for you It’s a journey being a must to go through Achievers such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Medgar Evers, Dr. Maya Angelou and scores of others They instilled the passion in how to achieve, and determined education was what they were going to receive They were ready no matter what Fasten your educational seat belt as you will be taking off into Higher Learning Institutions in education beyond measure Education is, but hold tight to the learning saddle It might seem like a battle But the end rewards is succeed Slavery that was while be came destined for education now One word leads to a complete sentence One’s thoughts illustrates the understanding Adaptability of the concepts gained Long lasting knowledge is what will remain UNCF philosophy, “A mind is a terrible thing to waste” But the mind must be ready to spiral and absorb But education and knowledge work all accord.

Malakas ang bugso ng hangin Bunsod ng pangangailangan Bumubuhos ang ulan ng pananagutan Daluyong, sunud-sunod ang hagupit Mabuti pa ang kabuting mamunso Magkakambal lamang karaniwan kung sumibol Ngunit anong kalupitan mayroon ang kapalaran? Di na nga makaahon sa dagat ng kahirapan Ilulubog na naman ng alon ng kamalasan Bibilangin bang muli ang galos ng panghihinayang Tatapalan na lamang muli ang sugat ng puso Ng dahon ng ikmo ng kapaitan at binulungan ng orasyon ng sama ng loob Bigo pa rin sa paghihintay ng kayamanang mailap Litanya ng kabiguan:      Pagkawala ng mga ari-arian..........      Pagka-ilit ng lupa at tahanan..........      Pagkaulila sa magulang..........      Pagkasangla ng kinabukasan..........      Sakuna..........           Tila mga butil ng rosaryo           Walang hanggang pagtitiis Bukas darating ang maniningil – ng hinuhulugang 5-6 Nakasangla pa rin ang ATM sa ‘Lend Bank’ – di na matubos-tubos Tinawag na lahat ng santo at santang maaaring utangan Ng panustos na biyaya – GSIS Loan, ipanalangin mo po kami Provident Fund Loan, kaawaan mo po kami Kooperatibang Malapit, maawa ka sa amin Bumbay sa palengke, ipag-adya mo po kami Kubrador ng huweteng, patayain mo po kami Lotto, GrandLotto, MegaLotto, SuperLotto, UltraLotto,                     patamain mo po kami BIR, patawarin mo po kami Presyo ng langis, kahabagan mo po kami Lahat ng ito’y isinasamo namin Dahil lahat na yata ng kahirapa’y nasa AMEN.

‘…. and now, here’s Rick with the latest Market news…’ ‘Val, trading was very brisk today, with a number of influences that set the market off to some defined trends and statements. Of course, the Human Virtue Exchange always seems to rely on the volatility that resides ‘between the ears’ as noted by the veteran brokers on the floor, but the sharp ranges of prices offered versus profit taking has set the bar very high in the relative value of Basic Human Virtue. Now to the numbers: Courage [WHOME], Patience [PP], and former market darling Perseverance [GULP], all varied widely today on news from Washington that their value was doomed to fall in the light of the expected growth of Persistence [IAM] which history has shown to be a marked drag on just about everything. Outside of the self –efficacy bazaar, old standbys Ambition [HVY], Curiosity [WDF], Industry [HAHA] and Temperance [BFD], continued their free fall into uncharted areas of cost and return. Some analysts feel these virtues could be a real bargain in the future despite their history of poor performance. Could a comeback not seen since collapse of the Protestant Hypocrisy Era be in the works? We’ll see as the lack of movement in the Kindness-Generosity-Forgiveness-Compassion Index [FARAWAY] leads many to believe that the end of Politeness [UPYRS], Un-pretentiousness [ME-ME], Self Control [NWAY] and Sportsmanship [LONGONE], may lead to a complete miss-understanding between casual market players and devotees to the cause. The ratios cannot lie. But without a doubt, today’s big winner was Self Respect [YUP] which jumped and amazing 40 points before active trading ceased at the bell. So people feel real good about themselves for reasons that cannot be explained by the Ego File Indicator alone; this causes this reporter to predict that Naval Gazing [MOM] remains a ‘Hot to Trot’ stock fund and the Vanity market is always a good bet.

First things first I'd like to apologise I'm sorry I'm not the good Indian girl I was bred to be I'm sorry I don't make round rotis I'm sorry that the tongue I use to speak punjabi is broken and hides in my mouth unused until desperately needed I'm sorry that I don't cook and clean efficiently enough to be wifey material Sorry that I love who I love and don't hate who I was told to Sorry that I can't follow gods blindly and not try to sneak back stage to see their shining gold adornments and blue body paints and multiple arms in full and bare glory and scandal I'm sorry that I'm actually not sorry for any of this I'm sorry that these are false and empty apologies I am unapologetically whole A human not just a race A female not a trust fund or business transaction I filter out the good parts of the culture I'm from and the ones I identify with I'll wear docs under my saari no apologies I'll grind on dancefloors and do the best Bhangra dance you'll ever see unashamedly Hareems and hoodies Bindies and pin up eyeliner Hedonism and head in the clouds My ambition is Ambedkar untouchable My drive is a salt march surging silently non violently through cities My hometown pride is built in concrete and rickshaw dust, Prejudice and Bollywood lust

THIRST FOR CONTINUED EDUCATION INTO KNOWLEDGE
Yet I Am Ready Watching the waves eat away the castles made of sand Staring at the way wind is churning at infrastructure       land like a big bad wolf who found the fear and lean foundation of a brick house I am ready for her hand I am all ready Traversing fields filled with fruitless wonders burning tundras rolling thunders A Man attempting to put out its grand made funeral pyre with nothing but a Jack and Jill bucket filled with reverse osmosis electrolyte infused hydrogen oxygen expired prayers I am Ready for no man land I have a radio already Listening to Nokia raven chirps and bubble bee gyrations. Evergreens whispers as wild blooms break concrete and asphalt and building plans giving smiles to homeless man and woman dreamers flowering in the night lights that were supposed to replace stars I am ready for the woods to takeover the hoods for bear feets to take over the streets for napkins to become extinct to write with my god-given red ink so that my being will dye into stone and dirt To leave my DNA on my mothers belly and hear her cry As she covers my mouth closes her eyes tearful from radioactive winds let her know that I loved her and hugged her every chance I could I am ready to give up me for we have not given back enough We have devoured the essence and forgotten how to seed and harvest   the nothing has become us which is why Earths flesh is colored rust like  blood mixed with scratching dust we have bruised the body and wonder if we can blame something someone else but US Every time the finger points the object of our deflection disappears Rearrange the letters she was trying to help us HEARt Rearrange the letters EARth is trying to make us Heart I'm trying to make us Ear These MTHFCKRS are among US. We have bred them with our love lust still unaware that they a fungus These MTHRFCKRS have become US they save a life to **** it from us. they manufacture fakes to stunt us These MTHRFCKRS have become US Ideas devoid of what we need to come up She must go now and rip it from us We must shed our blood just to fund us Cause these MTHRFCKRS have out done US

In Dragon-language
And when you give Give like the widow would Quietly and thoughtfully Wholeheartedly and consciously Like you know the value of costly The value of giving til you laughingly Really hurt in your fund for a holiday. And when you give Keep your other hand wondering If it's sufficiently Not knowing if it was slight of handedly Or open handedly So you're tempted into giving more Than you intended previously. And when you give Give hilariously Generously Be gutsy til angels agree On the degree To which you plunge The depths of your karki jeans And if in doubt Just focus on the tree And the costly sacrifice He willingly made For you and me. Give like the widow would - Like it's just between you and God And then you'll be free.

And when you give (remix)
Today's world is not as it seems, Cancer now comes in packs of twenty And our idea of food is a burger with twenty-percent meat, And NO-ONE cares or thinks for themself Ones worth is measured only in wealth The children are hungry, Our veterans ignored Hunger for money and lust for oil brought us war, Ukraine in "crisis" and MH370 missing, The C.I.A. funded Isis we just won't believe it, So put down the phone and open your eyes, Realize Real Eyes Real Lies It shouldn't take a genius to see this So I will not forgive, I'll NEVER forget, about 9/11 or Israel's daily blank check Because we fund their wars with Gaza and more We bomb the Mosques,hospitals and more We've been deceived,shammed,tricked and lied to, So ask yourself,who am I? Who are you? We're the awoken ones with SO much left to do Open your eyes and simply wake Wake the **** up for our children's sake Sometimes I just think about things, What will our children's future bring? Will there be one at all or won't it exist? Open your eyes Realize And think about it

The Grand Scheme of Things
You strip and scream in the pillow of your king size bed. Something about life being too hard or your girlfriend's unfaithfulness. Somoene's outside your door or maybe under the tree. They know what their future is and their prospects are bleak. 'I don't want to eat because I am so depressed. ' Well, how about handing over that food to someone who has been going hungry to bed. You are never thankful for what you have. Let's solve this without any animosity We all have days which are bad. I have seen the citylights I have seen the people cringe with the pain You and I know that this system is to be blamed. It's time that the government has shown their true face. Those schemes are probably gonna fail. Unclean water, improper waste disposal it's time we return back to our own morals. I don't mean to be abrasive but it's time we face it. The rich are getting richer watching poor men die You get the picture Divided by an imaginary line. Some charities are a scam '*Please help us fund the education of the kids affected by the floods. We have no proof where the money goes. Our logic is ****** ' Traffic lights changing colours Wait?  Did someone break that one again? That's a ****** No one knows where they are going as long as the cash is flowing So many around the world starve to death 'What the hell did you put in this lasagna? A rotten egg?' Your emotional security us important and so is your money. You can enjoy as many luxuries but remember to think of the less fortunate.

Society detests innocence Often shaking hands with ignorance Exchanging phone numbers with bliss. We hate it cause we’re jealous. So we send loaded words their way. Our mouths, like pistols shooting bullets full of hate. Someday we shall see the error of our ways. Until then, ****** We call him. He who has yet to be used, Or more so, use another for pleasure ****** and then leave a woman and a ****** on a Hotel’s bathroom floor, alone and broken. Square. We say To she who has never felt the itch. Needed so badly to scratch it and get her fix that she steal from her two month old daughters college fund so she can fly away and forget…. Try as we may, we never forget How it feels to fall from the sky. So, we know how to make a mockingbird cry. We know how to make a mockingbird cry. And we know how it feels to **** one

(how) To **** a Mockingbird
There is a vicar from Chelsea Who alas is not very wealthy Often he dines on communion wine And curried bat from the belfry He lights a lot of incense To hide his flatulence He gets a bit high Perhaps that is why His sermons never make sense --The vicar gets his knickers in a twist-- The old church roof had seen better days The pressing need was a serious fund-raise So the vicar abseiled down the tower As the village watched by the graves and flowers With a flurry his cassock flew up in the air Shocking pink he wore under there Flapping around it covered his face As he dangled there in embarrassed disgrace Someone called the fire brigade A turntable ladder came to his aid When at last they got him down Humbled and grateful he kissed the ground

a bottle of scotch had bad dreams. bullets twitch, junk sick in 3 inch thick mustard **** toe nails clipped from yeti lay strewn about the **** stained corpse of a motel six dixie cup - root canal trophy, next to a black fez with scab tassel upended. down in it. belching apnea propaganda and belladonna waiting for curious george to find a shotgun and a yellow hat and a brick banana. blowflies inhale the rank damp of a fresh **** the odd dog whines like a clown in - a blender. [ the ] house wins with a marked card; jabbing fat fingers into acned rosacea bloated with sleep lack and mortgage back stab chasing twenty ****** with a hollow point pull from an acid flask while hailing a black cab. tinsel sutures stitch eyelids as a mercy shattered bone knit hand-grenade cozies old glory, at half mast half wasted fifty stars, no light dragging on the grounds of immunity to do a line of coke stock with a basset hounds' finesse. your taxes at work in columbia, hiding from a lost farm in Idaho your american dream turning tricks in shanghai for a counterfeit egga roll your meme, devoid like an ice cube tombstone your freedom, parking cars for italian escorts smoking skin flutes for ferraris and white teeth. your integrity, sold to a hedge fund for astroglide and a pez dispenser packed with prozac pressed by ' Jose the butcher' s abuela in a narco slum that ain't seen radio since cinder blocks had wings.

What if I were president? What party, what values would I hold? If I were president would I be humble, honest, and bold? When I talk about greater justice for immigrants, I'm a Democrat. When I speak out against abortion, I'm a Republican. When I talk about racism and racial inequality, I'm a Democrat. When I mention small, localized government, I'm a Republican. When I support the common good and solidarity, I'm a Democrat When I say the family should be strengthened, I'm a Republican. When I speak up against the death penalty, I'm a Democrat. When I refuse to fund contraception, I'm a Republican. So, where does this leave me? You have to pick right? Well in some ways I'm both, and in some ways neither. You see, if I pick Democrat I'm going against my Republican values And the same is true of my Democrat values if i decide Republican. If I were the president I'd work for peace, love, truth, understanding I would work to build bridges between the peoples and the nations Walls and fences do not, the best neighbors, make. I won't convince you with anything I say, but if I do my best to live and To reflect love, to give hope, to find joy maybe you'll want it too To lift up the lowly, help others help themselves, to forgive and to love That's some of what I hope to do. In truth, I'm a member of an institution that teaches that freedom is when a person no longer acts under the influence of someone else. An institution that encourages free will and free thought. An institution that doesn't fit inside a man-made box. This is being true to myself, this is who I am. I'm Catholic

I did my part, by staying in. So effective, bored. It’s a sacrifice. The soul is very passionate. The isolating, the flattening. Foraging coercion. For Immuno compromised persons! Stay in your homes. Prevent the increase in tombstones! Then pat yourself on the back. Knowing all the people you have saved! Staying in, flattening the curve again. Outcome, only time will tell. Feeling relieved I’m not the only one! And the stupidity will **** us all. Hoarding toilet paper from the aisles. But no one else can see. The effects this has on the elderly. Social distance, social distance, social distance. Social distance, social distance, social distance. Oh, there are arrogant ******** not taking this seriously. But there are others doing their part. The nurses and doctors have gone mad. With people taking all their masks. But when we cure it all, The faith will be restored, Who hopes we will be blessed? We could start over, Just cover your mouth when you cough! It’s that simple. Now there’s time to watch streaming platforms. Helpfulness, committed. To doing what I can. I’m not the only one. And the stupidity will **** us all. Hoarding toilet paper from the aisles. But no one else can see. The effects this has on the elderly. Social distance, social distance, social distance.

Social distance (slipknot psychosocial parody)
I did my part, by staying in. So effective, bored. It’s a sacrifice. The soul is very passionate. The isolating, the flattening. Foraging coercion. For Immuno compromised persons! Stay in your homes. Prevent the increase in tombstones! Then pat yourself on the back. Knowing all the people you have saved! Staying in, flattening the curve again. Outcome, only time will tell. Feeling relieved I’m not the only one! And the stupidity will **** us all. Hoarding toilet paper from the aisles. But no one else can see. The effects this has on the elderly. Social distance, social distance, social distance. Social distance, social distance, social distance. Oh, there are arrogant ******** not taking this seriously. But there are others doing their part. The nurses and doctors have gone mad. With people taking all their masks. But when we cure it all, The faith will be restored, Who hopes we will be blessed? We could start over, Just cover your mouth when you cough! It’s that simple. Now there’s time to watch streaming platforms. Helpfulness, committed. To doing what I can. I’m not the only one. And the stupidity will **** us all. Hoarding toilet paper from the aisles. But no one else can see. The effects this has on the elderly. Social distance, social distance, social distance.

College dreamers, trust fund seams broken down like veins after repetitive prods. Drinking days are alliteration accented because two dollar drinks deserve denotation. A hangover that brings clarity is irony; a sad realization made after a night of excess. A drop of vulnerability and personal accountability is desperation, and preference at this point is permissible, yet premature. Face buried, between the sheets, wrapped in legs and lust, books thrown against a wall. Classes are dropped faster than broken furniture and one night stands. And **** the taste. We're all chasing that last sip that brings a confidence to think rhythmically.

Don't Think About It
When I was younger, I wanted to be an artist. I aspired to be someone who made a difference, like Picaso or Vincent Van Gogh. Someone who was remembered. So like every little kid who has a dream, I pursued it. Saving up all the allowence I earned In just 3 weeks I had a total of $12.80. Enough to fund the dream of a child. I realized, I loved drawing. From the minute I picked up my $2.50 pencil, I knew my dream was going to come true; Even if it started with doodles... of flowers and stick people. So eventually I grew up and I gave up that dream of being an artist that makes a difference. I gave up, because I couldn't master drawing the perfect person. I couldn't draw how the persons eyes shinned when they saw the love of their life, I couldn't capture the beauty in the young girls smile as she ran through the field of daisys towards her father, who was coming home from war. I realized that you can't capture the beauty and the memories that someone holds with a dream and a $2.50 pencil. drawing // a.s.

what do you do when the person you hate the most is yourself? what am I to do when all my thoughts revolve around you, where do I sign up to get self help? I miss the way you would do your curly hair. I regret the fact that we never went to the fair. I miss that black shirt you have with that little pizza slice on it, you were my form of anesthesia, now everyday feels like **** I miss it. What we had, looking back, it wasn't all that bad. I miss that time of day, sunset, where I would forget all of my heart's regrets and watch you stare at the sun we did the dumbest things just for fun. you shined brighter than the lighter that lit those cigarettes you hated so much, no matter how often you inadvertently hurt me, I can't hold a grudge, you are the one who can truly judge. take me to court, decide if I get to go free living so sadly, or incarcerate me and my inner demons, can the state fund my treatment? trick question, the cure is a secret. it's not a drug, pill, or form of escape, it was that girl I could never make feel safe. she was the princess in the tower, but the dragon guarding it had too much power. he whispered my worst fears into my ears, my mind went blank, and that's when I sank into this hole called depression being sad? I'm so good at that, I'd call it my profession. I'll be the first to admit I am very weak, I have no right to speak. I'll just sing my hate at the stars, let it drift off into space. maybe the gods above will pity my mortality, think about my well being more than she does. who is she? everything I've ever wanted, giver her back to me. P L E A S E ... ?

Pick a cause, any cause, and slap your receipt on your bumper. Everyone is doing it. Everyone needs something to be passionate about. What's your disease? Not a one of us has it but **** if we don't act like it. Walk it off. Blame federal taxes. Blame the government. Why not your cause? Why not your ailment? Cus' you know Johnny is going to die if we don't do something, and Susie's just runnin' outta time. Buy a teddy bear to show you give a **** Donate that extra quarter. It all piles up somewhere. But who, I mean who ever bothered to cure anything? A million lab coats are workin' on your answer. Just give em' a sec, this stuff takes time. In the mean time throw another buck in like your the only one. Like this is the only problem left. Like Santa only cares about breast cancer or the church only cares about Alzheimers. It's got one of their own you know. Uncle Jim's got cancer of the liver, where's his save the children fund? Timmy's got cerebral palsy. Sara's got Aspergers. Randy has the Typhoid. Pick a brand any brand and show you give a **** Like the only one who gives a **** about the only thing that matters. Forget them, what about me? What about my issue? What about my family? Does the take a penny leave a penny in the seven eleven make you feel important? Good. Look here, buy this pin. 10% goes to Katrina victims
