“A Chance Discovery”/ Poetry by A. Dacosta Brathway

A world I used to be a part of, I now despise/
As I view it with x-ray eyes…
The big slave convention in March
The slave masters watching their charge,
Go through the motions of the order
That lends itself to the broader

Scheme,
Perpetuating the nightmarish dream.

The gods manage from the headmaster’s chair,
The orderlies toting their cross to bear
For their supper.
On scholarship without the academics lends itself to no abrupt fix to a world with any future,
Sends the wandering slave into a drunken stupor
While the master lives, rich, on the plantation,
Preparing the next crop’s orientation.
Increased marching lines with no degree
Unprepared to be
A pillar of strength
When functioning from a deficit disorder
Which makes the problem that much broader.

There is no solution to Vertigo
Unless heavy doses of the prescribed medication are in full effect
Creating the effect of a free fall slow…
Disgraced face
When set to the pace
Of the master’s agenda.
The mindset of March in the psychological castration of a slave mentality gender.


On Inspiration

Who would have thought that
Taking a shit
Would inspire such wit
From an insane brain
As it spiraled down the drain?

Business Idea/ Observation by Al Brathway

BUSINESS IDEA

I got to thinking… I moved to New York City prior to (9/11) and was looking for a job. Things were looking good until those damn planes hit. My luck hit a snag on that fateful day. Then I got to thinking… I need to start my own business. But, what would I sell? A friend called me to tell me that she was in a car accident and her car was totaled. She went on to say that it was drivable but totaled. Well, it hit me like a bolt of lightening! “That’s it!” I yelled.
Oh… You want to know what I yelled? Well, I am the CEO of “TOTALED.” It’s a company I started that rents totaled but drivable cars to people who live in high crime areas! What do you think?

ED's Opinion Intro

ED's Op

Que pasa people? This is the intro to a new blog on line that will be voicing the views of an invisible man. No...no... It won't be anything vicious or mean spirited. It's just time for another opinion about how the world works. Okay, maybe not but it's gonna happen anyway so... God, there are so many things to express an opinion on, how will I find the time? That's real easy. Since I don't have a job, I'll have all the time in the world! (Maybe I don't have a job is because I AM invisible?) In any event, look out for Miscellaneous Turds! (I know... You don't like the name. But that's the beauty of living in America!)
