My Relations, can't you see we are all still living in a Babylon way? We are well into the year 2011, and yes, there have been some remarkable achievments through our growth process as a Human Race. We learned to, "Walk up-right, make fire, learn to talk, and we learned to wipe our ass", are way up on there on my list.
With the inclusion of Darwinism/For be real-ism's into the relgions and governments of this Planet Earth. What expression or word is it - what the hell word is it, I can't find it, but in my mind it looks something like this; Progress + greed = Self-distruction. Self-Annihilation. I am a Native of the South Eastern United States. Have lived here in Florida most of my days on Earth Mother. On my father's side of the family we are five generations deep here in Florida. On my mother's side of family, we go back generations before The Civil War deep. We walked and lived the Cherokee life...
...and what is it on our radio's, e-mail, televisions and the press that would tell us and lead us to believe it is okay to be a waste full folk? What is it we see as the co-inhabitants of this globe, our Earth Mother, that makes it ALRIGHT to pollute and strip away layer after layer of OUR Earth Mother? Are we here simply to observe the continuation of the rape and destuction of the very Earth we walk. We take breathe and drink of her water's...as we drank the milk from our Mother's breast. We would not approve pollution of our birth mom, yet even as we read these words together we spoil our water ways and dump much more than a few million gallons of oil into our oceans. We all know this.
Some folks even celebrate the sinking of boats and ships into our Gulf of Mexico and our Atlantic Ocean. "Artifical Reefs", this rubbish is named. Bull Fuckin' Shit! If there were no reefs there before, maybe there wasn't supposed to be a huge piece of rubbish-fake-ass-reef there to begin with. What?
We're all too busy to notice the dariry farms that were so large you could see further than the eye to see...
...are just about gone. As a Floridian, I remember seeing these places...forest and orange groove for as far as the eye could imagine to see.
This Babylon way continues to perpetuate the Jim Crow code of decades gone by. Won't Relations just join me and say YES Mario, I see it too! So many of use must speak "OUT"...
...to ensure we do more than wish somebody would say something! Could've said something. Should've said something? This Babylon way...
...the oppression and the suppression of many folk still remain and remain overlooked. As in Seek and Hide. We all know it's going on. I know I do! Right here at home, I pray for Kinfolk in the Smokie's, to Relations in Africa, Jamaica, Cuba,...the Congo, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Botswana, Serbia, Kentucky, Tennessee...
...our fellow counrtymen here in The South. We pass a blind eye and a deaf ear to the peoples who are our brothers and sisters here. As a Group of Many Kindred, we permit nations to ethnic cleanse and permit the genocide of millions. We as an educated and well traveled population see what it is WE are doing to our Earth Mother and Our Fellow Man. Until The-Bald-Head-Tallahassee, places ink to paper...until Him in Washington D.C., just does it...
...it's all yackity-yack-yack. Mark this treaty paper please, Cheif?
Until something is said - until something is done it is "WE", still living in the Babylon way.
