#157 Hanging on the Line

Technology has moved on

At an alarming rate

Things we could only dream of

Are now available on a plate

With phones that predict what you are going to say

With apps you can monitor

When last you saw your friend

Is this the begin

Or is this the end

Of the simpler life

Do we all have to get on board

Or just be left behind

With a phone

With no minutes

Just hanging on the line

Prostate Cancer within the Black Community

I believe there is a link between Prostate Cancer and the types of jobs Black men do.

I have named it a cushy number as there are so much unemployment at the moment.  Having  a job just any job is considered good fortune

#159 A Cushy Number

He is banned from the office

So he is forced to drive

Drive and drop

Drive and drop

Navigating the city roads

He is efficient and slick

Drop and drive

Drop and drive

Drop and die

They say it is a cushy number

As he sits on his tushy

Stuck in traffic

Cannot park there

Come into reception

No further please

No your place no your sation

Drop and drive

Drop and drive

Drop and die

All this sitting around

Causes problem for any man

The statistics speak for themselve

Our black men

Are risking their health

As they chase the bills

To increase their wealth

Before long a cancer is born

Before long a cancer is formed

A trip to a clinic where you wait and wait

Encounter racist and their hate

Sit and wait in line

Not sure how long it will take

Have you not got the time

Come back another time

By time you come back it is too late

We are now talking about advanced prostates

How did this happen?

Is this a plan ? there is a pattern

How are we going to populate this planet

If our men are dropping like flies

I am not making this up

This is not lies

This is the situation

Amongst our guys

Superior Hair Quality

Right now I am wearing my hair in a afro.  I love the way it looks all unruly and when I touch it , it is soft, strong and thick.  It is in a healthy condition.  I have relaxed my hair in the past, or I should I say try and kill it by drying it out and drowning it in chemicals.   Anyhow it has forgiven me and recovered.  To the next experiment. Afro hair is so versatile I am certain there is not  style out there that cant be achieved.

I have noticed when I have my hair in  an Afro the general concess is that someone wants to touch it.  Now I regard my hair as being personal and private.  The area about your head is vital when it comes to channelling positive energy.

#160 My Nappy Hair

My hair is described as nappy

This makes me happy

It is also unruly

And cannot be tamed

Like the woman within

My independent brain

My hair is superior

Which naturally means other hair is inferiria

It is versatile

It can be combed in any style

It can be slicked back

If that’s where you think it is at

My hair doesn’t lay flat

If I locks it

It will climb happily down my back

My hair is happiest in afro

That’s what is unique you know  

In the 70’s it was symbolic and right

My hair stands upright

Like it’s an antenna

Ready for a fight

Tracking for the next satellite

I remember the tears

As a child

Wanting to wear my hair wild

To avoid the comb which I would fear

Now I am in control

I comb it without tears

I recall sitting down

At my mothers feet

This time spent together

I now regard as a treat

Time spent alone;

With my mother my hair

And that wretched comb
