When I say "BLACK LIVES MATTER".

When I say BLACK LIVE MATTER, this is what I mean;
Imagine me before a wild uncontrollable fire with a fire
Extinguisher in my hand, it is all I have to beat back the
Flames that threaten to devour me, so when I say,
BLACK LIVE MATTER, imagine me pointing that fire
Extinguisher at the very base of that fire and giving it my
All. BLACK LIVE MATTER is a strategy that directs all
Efforts and concentration on the very focal point of the wild fire. It gets
Straight to the core of the issue and gets the attention of our
Counterparts. But some will have you believe that
When I proclaim BLACK LIVES MATTER that I pin
Myself against you, to say that my life holds more meaning
Than yours. NO! NO! NO! This is the LIE! When I yell
BLACK LIVE MATTER, it is because I have to in dire this
Moment. I am strategically focusing my resources to
Ensure the optimal outcome, nothing short of that and
I risk losing my own life. I call to you then my dear
Counterparts in proclaiming, loud, clear and with fervour,

BLACK LIVES MATTER, that I may save my own.

Their expectations and my uncertainties

Image
            It is exactly a week since graduation, day after day I sit in solemn reflection. My parents, my self, my friends and the general society, all have expectations of me and what I should be doing with my life. Expectations big or small, it does not matter, I need to be moving. Frankly, I am getting fed up with the question; What are you going to do now? My uncertainty of the future greatly influence my response, most times I tell them what I can be sure of, that is at least I have the next year figured out.             I do have to confess I love this feeling of uncertainty, its like a high. That must be why I take a casual attitude to planning, I love to see events unfold without knowing exactly what will happen next. Uncertainty is not I bad thing. Yes, it can be scary and even tormenting, but it can also be very liberating. It opens a world of events and opportunities, anything, absolutely anything is possible. I a...

En Passant (On a Walk)

Sur mon parcours, j'ai appris une leçon. En toutes choses, il faut la modération. Sur mon parcours, j'ai rencontré très tôt la religion. Elle m'a appris la moralité : La différence entre, Le bon et le mauvais. Elle m'a fait comprendre Que, à cause d'elle, l'homme s'est mis en guerre, Il y a quelques milliers d'années. Tous cela pour Montrer qui la connaît le mieux. La vérité est que, Elle n'a jamais voulu que cela soit le cas. Je lui ai Dit au revoir, mais on a toujours gardé le contact. Plus tard, sur mon parcours, j'ai rencontré la Politique. Elle m'a dit qu'elle aussi, subit la méprise De l'homme. Elle explique, "Les gens mes traitent Comme le sport du foot. Les partis politiques sont Les équipes et les gens ont choisi leurs équipes. Soit UMP, soit PS, soit EELV... ils les portent Comme les maillots d'une équipe et ils ne changent Jamais, dit-elle, " Ils deviennent incapable d...
