    That was the fastest a document has ever opened up.

    Jesus Christ, wasn't it?

    I love God.

    I just found a purple carrot,

    That was orange on the inside.

    I love God.

    I saw bright white, hot lighting

    Strike right outside my window—

    And I love God.

    Did you do anything out of line today?

    Nothing that I can think of…

    I saw a patch of birds that were camouflaged to match the ground perfectly

    And I love God.

    As I flirt with suicide, I realize

    I am famous and of much importance without being paid for it—

    People enter my line of sight just to exist, I.

    (lol)

    I'm in an existential crisis

    And this residential area

    Is under surveillance

    Psychological violence

    And terrorism is technological

    I'm a flight risk

    But if I die,

    The devil inside my child l l

    I digress

    Will probably profit l l

    Cause very n*gg*r is a star

    With two consonants at the end,

    Okay,

    We're gonna kill each other

    Okay

    The song's almost over

    Okay,

    I've got a lot to do to day,

    Would you throw yourself

    At the bus

    Or from under my keychain

    Okay

    I got pain in my heart, you know

    Okay,

    I'm stuck in the road you know

    Okay,

    So I left the door I open

    To go play darts at the bar

    And the dog walked in

    Okay

    You don't want a bad problem

    Okay

    I got a trunk full of bodies

    Okay,

    I need guitar lessons

    Okay—

    So this table wine calling my name

    Or what

    OKAY

    so we're gonna kill each other

    Okay

    Alright

    Okay

    So I left the door open

    OKAY

    I got a pest problem

    OKAY

    I don't want no more problems

    I don't produce movies

    I got 12 dollars.

    Okay,

    Stop talking

    Sunlit spells under midnight moon

    You turned your heart on mine

    The ocean calls

    What realm of hell is this, I walk?

    The devils eyes have found

    Your world

    Made of fractions of illusion

    And robbed

    Of stardust

    The light of the cosmos

    Is here upon lost,

    With the mark of the crying dollar

    For it was I who died high on the cross and

    Yet, did not die at all,

    So was boarded under rocks,

    A bolder and slumped over

    Serrated imagery

    No response server

    Straight at the begging of the seven years,

    Was the forager blind, who would become journeyman, Shepard and son of all

    Who had witnessed since, the oncoming of her arrival.

    Come, now Ishii.

    You were a terror.

    Aren't I now?

    Let's not forget, there are commonplace errors here,

    Among the redaction

    And in all time,

    It could take years,

    To find the days

    Coming toward tomorrow

    I say you should let him out, if ye know what's good fer ye.

    I say, you should say less than nessecary, as my patience is shrinking and you, my foul ogre are a lot more pleasant when you're not speaking.

    Forget I said anything.

    I wish that I could do that.

    I used to grant wishes, too, you know. And I'm only part ogre.

    Hush, will you.

    Yes I will.

    What's the other part?

    —French.

    Bitch,

    CLEAN YOUR ROOM BEFORE YOU TAKE A SELFIE.

    On God—

    wtf am I looking at sometimes.

  • Series Q10

    An ascended extra terrestrial being with the ability to travel throughout infinite existence within the multidimensional world enters a simulation of their own creation in order to understand the dynamics of its interworkings, and to repair a mysterious series of problems plaguing the world'a inhabitants, in order to prevent the imminent eventual demise of the species and the world in which they live.

    Sector 12, Dimension Q10

    Just be on the lookout;

    You know these primates aren't safe—

    With some sort of thinking they're ‘evolved' more somehow.

    —or less.

    What's at stake here is the planet.

    In totality,

    I honestly couldn't give one single fuck about it;

    whether it lives or dies, or who's on it.

    —but you're on it.

    I'm on it.

    Somebody kill this raggedy motherfucker

    Before I do

    On good conscience.

    Are you not worried that they're going to kill you?

    They won't kill me.

    They won't touch a hair on my head. You know why?

    Cause it's fake?

    Exactly.

    You ought to be in prison.

    Probably,

    I'd suspect I'd be getting more ass that way.

    Or something up yours.

    Up mine—up yours—what really is the difference?

    Did you really think you were protected.

    Nothing is safe, nothing is sacred, my dear—but you see, what I've purchased here is time.

    Time? Where did you get all this time?!

    Where did you get all this money?

    It wasn't made out of time!

    So the old adage stands corrected.

    So it does.

    So what did your parents do for a living?

    I beg your pardon?

    To what do I owe the honor of your privelege?

    Hard work.

    Try again.

    Back massages

    And thick cut bacon

    I just went to sleep

    And woke back up again reviled

    Revelations on motorcycles

    Harpists on steroids

    And movies on markers

    God ought to have thoughts of

    Something, honest and awkward

    Other than to govern up a sermon

    Of prophets

    On Altoids,

    Or morons—

    No mountains,

    So far I

    Have leapt from the riverbed

    Lol i might never finish I _ NY cause i'm too busy fucking hating how fucking noisy and rude it is over here.

    At least it's not homeless and tents under bridges over here.

    yeah but it's segregated as fuck tho.

    At least there's affordable housing!

    That's correct.

    —And transit.

    Also true.

    And everyone's not so fucking perfectly pretty that I like, need to slit my wrists over it.

    I mean, there are perfectly good reasons to slit my wrists on the East Coast.

    Yeah, but it's not dying of “why don't I look like that”

    (no, it's definitely not that)

    The fruit fly sighed,

    “When I die,

    I'd like to be a butterfly–

    Admired in the wild,

    Just for flying by

    And I replied,

    “Well, so would I”

    It was a wonderful sentiment.

    I thought about killing him just so that he'd make it more quickly to butterfly

    Maybe that's why white supremacy is out here killing niggaz.

    “You'll be better in the next life. promise!”

    “Maybe”

    *blat blat*

    “Lets hope”

    Probably immediately recycled into a better existence.

    Lets hope.

    (I didn't kill the fly, I just figured both our lifespans were just about the same length and hoped the best for either of us to be recycled into something beautiful and admirable by others–instead of seen as ‘pests'.)

    –it became less of a beautiful sentiment and more of a crises when a few days later, I thought of the fruitfly again as a beautiful butterfly fluttered across my window, and as I admired him, a bird swooped down and ate him.

    That shit was raw.

    Yep. Nature's a GOAT.

    –and you expect me to believe that less than 200 years ago we were still brutally fucking murdering people publically just for fun and that all of a sudden that shit is over? Fuck outta here. These people are natural born fucking killers with the equivalant sadism as a fucking lion that likes to play with its food before he kills it.

    I am the nylon light

    That sheds Grattitude

    With kindness

    To your fortress

    In honor

    There's a certain power that comes in realizing that you don't give a fuck anymore—

    Whether you win or lose—

    Succeed or fail—

    Whether you live or die.

    There's a certain kind of magic in the chaos that comes from the world's own utter confusion in not knowing how to react to a fully volitile ticking time bomb.

    When you get finished with being fucked with—

    And you realize the greatest of all evils—the thing fucking with you—is somehow still also yourself— you give up and give in to the torture that becomes knowing that in a world where there's everything— you were made to be from nothing.

    I can't tell.

    I think I'm still sweating, but I don't know. Could just be my hair; I pat my head with the towel and feel my hair with the palm of my hand—No, I'm still sweating profusely. Whatever. I'm too fat. I slept the night away and woke up later than usual again—came one half mile short of my usual cardio routine before dashing upstairs for my weekly phone meeting—I made strawberry and oat whole wheat pancakes the day before. I was a size 5-slash-6. I needed to be a size two.

    If you could make me feel.

    I wouldn't be standing here

    Looking for a way to feel

    I would be

    Walking by

    Looking for a reason to live

    I wouldn't be standing here

    Craving a book to fill the cases I've emptied

    Or the crimes that I've drafted

    The tears on my pillow

    The time that I've wasted

    The scars on my lips

    Or the release in my heart

    I'm counting the reasons to smile

    The words to a song still forming

    On my crumbled mind

    You wanted a story;

    On fast approach, I wrote one

    Trying not to belong here

    What are you doing?

    Nothing you wouldn't.

    Hm.

    [a pause.]

    —It smells of blood.

    Hm. Keen sense of smell—and familiarity with uncommon scents.

    A bird flew into my window this morning.

    BIRD

    hey!

    *smashes against window*

    …it wasn't open.

    Damn! How does that happen?!

    GOD

    Did you see that, though?

    Yeah, God—okay, you win.

    I'm up, I'm up.

    GOD

    You okay, Jack?

    I'm fine, I'm okay.

    Try being a better bird.

    I'm—the best bird I can be.

    I meant— a bigger bird. Much smarter.

    It's not my fault; I thought that the fourth wall was already broken.

    It was; your mistake however lies in the simple fact that that wasn't the fourth wall, it was a window.

    My mistake.

    Try a Seagul.

    Wouldn't it be amazing if peacocks could fly.

    CUT TO:

    [PEACOCKS can fly.]

    OH DEAR GOD.

    CUT BACK TO:

    No, it would not.

    Kesha — tik tok

    Ohhhhh, that was Kesha.

    Yes.

    I get it now.

    No, no you really don't.

    Should I be afraid of whatever's about to happen?

    I think you should be more concerned about the things that shouldn't, and are.

    Oh…Kay…

    Every kiss begins with

    —kill the bitch.

    Holy shit! Another one!

    Don't worry about it.

    The DJs

    (It would be the DJs doing this)

    It would have to be!

    Have developed a bird-cannon.

    (Actually, it's just a t-shirt cannon from the music festival.)

    Which music festival?

    Idk, you pick

    MAGIC MIKES MUSIC MAYHEM

    {Sponsored by Mike's Hard Lemonade}

    Sure.

    I like that one.

    It—yeah.

    Whatever. Isn't it just technically—

    INT. THE INFINITE RAVE.

    —wait, are you naked right now?

    …

    I'm always naked.

    GROSS.

    Barf.

    If you want.

    I'm not changing.

    The three DJ's with the bird cannon have successfully tricked—

    Who is it

    Idk

    —The DJ inside into rescuing the three birds catapulted at the window; this results in the DJs then shapeshifting into the three birds in order to infiltrate the DJ's kitchen, which has been reportedly used as a multidimensional portal.

    We soon discover (or have already discovered, keeping on the series progression or multidimensional arc,) that the entire building itself can be transported throughout time and space, which the DJ, [who has been revealed as an immortal mystic space God] often moves through realms and throughout time and space in order to bend and manipulate reality—destined to find a hospitable destination, where likely the planet's inhabitants have reversed earth's untimely demise and preserved humanity, and ideally, where the world is living in peace and harmony with itself and one another.

    Lol the building moves.

    It doesn't exist!

    It kind of exists! It has to!

    Yeah— kind of.

    Psh!

    I'm so hot

    That I put

    Pancakes on my Mancakes.

    Psssst.

    (Sizzle)

    I put pancakes on my mancakes

    (Flip em)

    I put pancakes on my pancakes.

    (Sweet and hot like a McGriddle)

    I put pancakes on my mancakes.

    For rizzle.

    SUNNI BLŪ has become so visibly veluptuous that people are beginning to talk about it— a lot.

    I told you, stop squatting!

    I can't! All the tour bus gots is barbells!

    Can't you just go running like a NORMAL person?

    Go run where?! My face is on everything!

    CUT TO. FLASHBACK- before:

    FANS

    Omg is that him.

    *girls screaming*

    *cattle stampeding*

    *pandemonium*

    CUT BACK TO:

    —and that was at my house!

    Sunni—

    —in Iowa!

    s—you bought I house in Iowa?

    Hence the cattle. Duh.

    God.

    I thought it would be quiet there!

    SUNNI BLU counters this speculation with a new single which references having glutes so intensely hot that one is able to cook pancakes atop them, in which the music video showcases Sunni's bottom being used as a pancake griddle and features rap legend SNOOP DOGG—

    MANCAKES ft. SNOOP DOGG

    Models and dancers surround SUNNI rapping and take turns making pancakes on the veluptuous butt—ie—“mancakes.” Dressed in scantily clad chefs outfits/ sexy aprons and barbecue outfits// a barbecue pool party scene in which the booty is used as a pancake grill while the models and dancers drink mimosas at a backyard brunch.

    The song wins numerous accolades including song of the year, and skyrockets sunni BLU even further into fame—luckily, this distracts the public from further speculation, however— a small group of other celebrities become suspicious after unanimously deciding that the “jiggle factor” of the butt is explicitly female, and launch a secret csmpaign to expose Sunnï Blū as a transgender—thinking that this will upset the rap and hip hop community, and resulting in Sunnï Blu's removal from the top of the pyramid crowned as the entertainment kingpin.

  • …and then what?

    Evidently the motorcycles begin to now attack when I am at rest , on line, and not recording.

    However, once I begin recording, they stop.

    This has only been since I've been intentionally collecting recordings and data to add to my report to the NYPD and any applicable law enforcement agencies, as this continual threat seems to be politically motivated—and motorcycles, mopeds, and other motorized vehicles being used as a form of psychological terrorism as a direct threat to public health and safety. Terror stalking.

    Gang stalking.

    This may be a politicized attempt to promote or enforce gentrification or other political agendas.

    Living//Loving life on a server,

    Doesn't it seem wonderful?

    Let's face it—

    It's Fast Friday and I'm not going to be

    Bouncing off the walls, or anything—

    But I might be prone to a lot of

    Critical thinking,

    And though it's an expensive maneuver,

    And risky expenditure,

    The fact of the matter is—

    I haven't really been doing anything.

    I've been not complacent,

    But stagnant—

    So perhaps maybe this little detour

    Will be just the thing I need

    To erase some of the damage that's been done

    To my psyche—

    Sitting in this terribly loud apartment

    In Brooklyn

    Trying to find peace

    And make music;

    When the answer all along is that

    I need to increase my visibility

    In order to find what's needed;

    The fact is—

    Knowing where to go

    Or what to do

    Or who to meet

    Is not going to come in isolation—

    No, not at all.

    It would come from a neatly designed

    —whatever, I just got bored.

    Perhaps if I study hard enough,

    One day, I could complete my studies somewhere

    Like Harvard,

    Or Columbia—

    But first,

    I'll need a new diploma in my actual name.

    You see, nobody's giving any kind of real fuck about my music.

    I can't keep throwing money at it thinking that the way to success is going to be making enough money, to spend enough money, to hopefully buy the attention of the robotic masses, and eventually maybe even a club owner or festival promoter

    Who might be looking to put me on.

    Don't get me wrong— my music is good.

    But we live in a computer, and let's also realize:

    That with the noise in this building,

    And the overall head trip of counting up my pennies for every little thing I need,

    I'm starting to get physically ill,

    Just sitting here, understanding that

    To look the part, one must prioritize

    An expensive beauty regimen—

    Which either would leave me at the mercy of some man,

    Willing to do these things for me,

    Or that I might earn this myself…

    As you see,

    I've chosen the latter route—

    The more challenging, perhaps,

    However,

    Leaving my celibacy intact,

    And granted, otherwise uninterested

    In the males at my level of circumstance

    For any purposes beyond entertainment—

    —seek no other actual companionship at all.

    I like myself,

    I love myself—

    And though feeling uglier and uglier

    The more I stare into the face of my telephone screen—

    I am wonderfully beautiful all on my own.

    —but—

    The masses expect a spectacle,

    And so,

    It becomes part of my job, as an entertainer,

    Part of my repertoire—

    —have mercy—

    (I'm going to choose to ignore that, sort of)

    To do at least what has become expected of me as a woman—

    To be “pretty” —

    And though the makeup and hair and nails

    Might be fake,

    –Cans cost a fortune—

    Myself without those things, as observed and proven

    Becomes overlooked, dismissible, and only attractive

    To those, of course, to whom I have no business

    Associating

    For both personal,

    And professional reasons.

    —moreover…

    Conduct yourselves well, my dear—

    As the furious skies have warned us,

    That the roles you carry out to mark and torment others,

    Will soon reflect upon your own mirror

    Into which you stare,

    And no mercy is given

    By the eye that looks,

    Or any other

    The nearer to doors I am,

    The harder they slam—

    The, though I am fasting,

    I'm suddenly hungry,

    A far cry

    Which forces me to realize

    That all of mankind

    Has been poisoned

    Toxic,

    And become

    Unsafe

    So,

    What's wrong here

    Is they've

    Taken all the nutrients

    From the foods we need

    And put it on

    A competitive scale

    So that

    The more you earn

    The healthier you are

    And of course

    The healthier you are

    The more productive you are

    Which creates value

    Maybe I didn't have to take the GED;

    Maybe there was some way to go about getting

    My actual name

    On my old diploma—

    Hopefully without cost.

    But it didn't make sense to move into a new era

    Or a new world

    With old haunts.

    I knew I needed to seal the name change records

    So that my abuser could not have access

    To my identity.

    For whatever reason,

    I wanted things like Harvard and Columbia—

    I wanted to succeed and to win with a reputable and respectable foundation—

    I wanted to raise my son

    To play football

    And split custody

    In the sporting seasons

    In which

    I felt he performed best.

    I wanted to show him success

    Without making compromises

    That would hurt and weaken

    The strength of the body and mind —

    But most importantly, the soul.

    I hope by now you've realized how odd it is

    To have a crystal dildo

    Sitting in a glass jar

    On your kitchen countertop?

    …I'm soaking it.

    …But why crystal tho?

    Wouldn't you prefer

    An iron tenderizer

    For that steak

    Rather than a

    Silicone one?

    …now that you put it that way.

    Come closer, darling,

    I want to connect with you closer

    Than besides

    In the eye of the camera—

    Don't you know, anyway—

    How dire the circumstances become

    Once you've broken the fourth wall

    And entered the quarry.

    You lunatic!

    Don't worry

    The moon hasn't gone yet new,

    And my honored eye

    Still betraying the thought you are,

    The battered ram and the shackled horses

    The bloodied bull

    And the heroic matador,

    Fight

    …

    …

    …

    —by fury with design, for the holocaust.

    The masses have loved us

    From far beyond reason

    For our class action theatrics

    With no aversion at all,

    To violence.

    A treasury!

    Kill him, then!

    Kill that bitch.

    No! Just— scare her!

    Right you are,

    (And right you were!)

    Dear Johnathan,

    I should have warned you

    More than once,

    What an. Honorable sacrifice

    Your wicked life

    Has offered us—

    Foragers of freedom,

    March upon the underspoken

    Warcries,

    Offer us none

    But the end of our suffering

    In solitude,

    A service of none,

    All together,

    Hurt and bea—

    Arthur.

    I warned you once.

    You see,

    Men need women,

    They move on fast.

    One, none parted

    Before finding another.

    Let's not separate the eggs from the whites.

    Isn't it all “the egg”?

    You know what I meant!

    What do you “meant”?

    The yellow part!

    God, you don't half to yell.

    I'm not God, I'm just playing her part while she runs off for awhile.

    How long is “awhile”?

    Just finish those tarts.

    Mm. Pop tarts.

    NO.

    NOT POP TARTS —

    Just TARTS.

    …wait, can she hear us?

    I can hear everything!

    I'm playing God's parts!

    “Parts”?

    (Let's just say it's a double role.)

    Hey.

    How's it goin?

    Okay. Relax…

    I am relaxed.

    I don't want to scare you or anything.

    —nothing's scary—

    But—

    [pause]

    You have a knife in your back.

    [beat]

    Yeah.

    [beat]

    (Cont'd)

    It's just [a little] something I'm working on.

    What? We should call an ambulance!

    Nope, I'm fine.

    Just—

    No! Don't touch it!

    What?!

    Just leave it.

    It's time for pros and cons lists—

    It's time for diamonds

    Time for great minds that think alike.

    I sterted a revolution on Google documents m

    Ya'll started chemical warfare

    On skin color

    God

    Made me born into a world

    War

    Where fair skin takes priority

    Over others

    Gave me a notebook,

    No pen

    A traumatized mother,

    A drunk father

    And said,

    “Fix problems”

    I think I didn't like The nell Schooll ll

    Cause their

    mascot

    Is a pices

    They said I got

    15 minutes of fame

    22 minutes of superstardom

    An hour of celebrity

    And

    2 hours in a leading role

    Of a feature film

    Franchise

    So I'd better get used to it

    And I'd better make use of it

    And I'd better make better lists of

    Sorry,

    Gym typo

    Because

    Of course

    I'm a beast

    Faux pas,

    As I was,

    Saying—

    I should make better lists

    Of the guff I wanna boff,

    The doves I Central Park

    The pigeons, turtle doves and

    Waffles—

    —I still want the

    But not the buttermilk kind

    MAMA!

    I gotta get to Tom/ Diner!

    FATHER!

    (Try papa)

    Papa was the ops!

    Nah, I'm vice.

    I'd better get

    Anything done

    Before midnight strikes

    Along with the hunger

    My gloves are straight soaked

    I got puddles in my shoes

    I wanna top Obama

    Start all my dawns

    With hours of cardio!!

    Look,

    I can channel anyone I love!

    Do you love me?

    NO!

    —I just want your body a lot

    Like a lot

    LIKE A LOT,

    Tho.

    We're too famous—

    We sense crazies and go out the back door.

    How famous are you again?

    Apparently, like mad famous, dog.

    Were so famous,

    We look danger in the eyes.

    Oh yeah, this dude is fucking nuts.

    Didn't I say to pay it forward?!

    I don't need a reminder

    Of what time it is.

    Sometimes I forget

    This is yesterdays workout

    And I'm due back

    In the AM

    Where the crazies

    Can't get to me

    Exactly

    Where I am

    (Don't remind me how high I am.)

    I might jump just to get on the Television

    Martyrdom for attention

    Still haven't mentioned—

    I'm thousands of galaxies out of him,

    And only two millennia older

    Than

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    Fuck you.

    SUNNI BLŪ gets a surprise party for their 27th birthday.

    I've been advised to stay away from the doors and windows.

    Why.

    Ū crashes through the window.

    GODDAMMIT.

    They don't make them like they used to

    —I heard a song through a hardwire

    I don't know who lied so much

    I tried so hard

    To be gone

    But I still wake up

    Under a security blanket

    with a palm full of rocks,

    In a glass house

    God knows I'm sorry

    Woah friend, old friend

    I've heard the whole story now

    Old frog, old toad

    Old tortoise, long road

    Special forces

    Art protector

    Fortune teller

    Hypnotist and potions professor

    Overall,

    The one you wanted

    Wasn't a body at all,

    But just the thought

    And so I'm off for once

    Out of my zone and

    LET ME TRY.

    No, Jenna—

    Liz, let me try.

    I don't think that's a good—

    HELLO.

    Like this game, frog

    Once a week it's fun

    To partition the saints and summoners

    Covers with salt

    The cast out the others

    And add flavor to prayers

    Asked in hypothesis

    My what a wonder

    (A free form stream of consciousness)

    —a free form flow of consciousness.

    Stop repeating yourself'

    Stop tripping over words for goodwill forums

    Don't preach to the masses,

    And head out the back door at the sense of danger

    The sense of danger!

    It's Jane kzmarzarakr

    righ?

    What the FUCK.

    I'll get back to that later

    I gotta—

    …Somethin, somethin, somethin.

    What.

    Somethin—somethin—

    There's something between us.

    —is it cancerous?

    Probably comical.

    Are you on one, or off of it.

    Careful, Mr. cervix.

    Why AM I Mr. Cervix?!

    Because you fit the part!

    I'm a woman.

    My decision stands.

    #focus shifting.

    Re-examining mental health conditions which affect those facing poverty or at risk environmental circumstances.

    I had been searching to no avail for the title sequence of one of my mother's old soap operas without having to ask her —

    #focus shifting

    No, sometimes it's just ADD.

    lol

    Yes,

    Okay.

    I already know all the words.

    Sometimes I have to hyperfocus

    To fully comprehend,

    But really

    I just want to figure who produced it m

    In the cadences,

    I'm like diamond for hire,

    Pull out the subs for submarines;

    I put out real fire

    But, something like a half forgotten language

    There's something unknown in the darkness,

    I'm unsure what to put into perception,

    Just shadow boxes

    Making friends with The Devil, are we?

    You shackled me to your horrors,

    Out of control were my monsters

    A gratitude of nothing more or less

    To offer my body, curse

    The sacrificial lamb

    Tied to hard earned disaster

    A heroism and seeking

    Solace in the night

    —interceptions.

    Whatever Google,

    Take care now

    All morale is lost

    On sacred worship

    Cruel to hurt,

    But all has costs

    To front

    — the standard values

    Only those amongst mankind

    Who have value in vanity

    And fortresses of design

    Not in truth,

    But of auspicious and

    Inglorious

    —

    Goddamnit,

    How far away are you?!

    I can't make out almost anything that you're saying!

    Far!

    That's because, it's not saying it in your language!

    He

    Sorry. He is just using the closest possible language so that you can keep transiting it into English!

    Well, you're doing it wrong!

    I gathered!

    There's no direct translation whatsoever.

    They might as well just be speaking Martian.

    They are.

    (Well, some of them are.)

    I think the best way to go about making anything

    Into anything

    With the species is to

    CRUCIFY HIM!

    …that's not gonna work!

    You just blew my mind, did you know that?

    Not on purpose.

    —but did you know that?

    I try not to know things, but you know,

    The more I try.

    Guess what.

    No.

    You've got something coming.

    Let's make it positive.

    As you were—

    As you are, then.

    I realized that something had changed,

    That not only had t seemed it had become unsafe to speak, but also,

    That I didn't want to much.

    But, in Order to do something, in order to grow at all,

    I would have to force myself to understand

    The things that I always could have, but did not

    Multiplicity, Faction

    Are you an altruist at all, or just a

    Song starter—

    Help Me- Appleknockers Flophouse

    Just remember aces of embraces

    Sitting in the shape of the eye of protection

    Of obsidian collars and bracelets

    Still no percussion,

    Instrumentation and perfection

    Graces

    And remembrance of getting a ring,

    As strictly enforced

    To do what I'm told

    With nothing to hold onto

    But hoping the means to an end

    Shouldn't be the barrel of a gun m m

    How soft spoke.

    (No, no words at all)

    The name was new,

    But the form was old,

    And he said—

    “I curse the day you were born!”

    And I laughed at him—

    “But how could you curse the first day there ever was!

    Before days at at all had come to mark

    To pass the dawning of the ages?”

    And of course,

    There are the ones who had come and gone

    And left no trace at all.

    You all should learn from us—

    Come, then gone from earth

    And left not a spot at all—

    Of course,

    The mystics of I,

    Are as one,

    To have given you thought,

    Words,

    And artform—

    To have written at all, your published works

    And then none

    A far cry!

    To have cursed the day I was born—

    Is to have cursed the world at all

    It was all at once, anyway

    Astonishing

    A far cry!

    #focus shifting.

    Now what are we on, and over – m?

    Now are we an art, or have we bought or purchased

    Another swarm of haunts?

    What have you offered?

    A lesson? A song?

    Cheshire?

    A treasure chest of ideas, and new haunts

    And four plus four hours marks

    A full workday

    Of harsh tidings

    And no commas.

    The dollar sign is all you are

    All you are,

    dear serpent

    The shadow box

    Of times and talks

    The heartfelt words

    And omens

    Marks of

    Long:

    Crude

    Color

    Let's not reform to how hallmarked

    The call was

    To sign for

    The wrong box

    It was published

    In her heart

    To mark twilight at dawn,

    Sorrowful, beyond words, was the sloth

    And the stolen love of the harness

    —that's right,

    I was once the ritual disaster for your kind

    And cause!

    The false tongues to fall upon earth

    A false prophet, marked at all,

    By strife and swords to battle

    The Ark of all,

    In the eye of God,

    So opened the chapter of

    illuminations, once for thought as wicked

    But after all, the merchant of saints upon man

    Stricken in time to the word of The Lost Ones,

    the eye of all,

    The origins of love

    As we are

    Born in color.

    So spoke the caterpillar of the butterfly—

    Not knowing he was only

    What was to become of him

    As some are

    Also

    Disgusted by us at all.

    We are,

    What is to become

    Of those who die

    Blue eyed and bewildered,

    Though beautiful,

    Unknowing of strife

    And hard earned glory,

    The solitude of

    Kindness

    So said the spider,

    Drawing upon the corner,

    Her thoughts of the ocean,

    Once earned and once taught

    To perform out of mercy—

    Now cradling heartworms,

    Challased, unspoken

    Signals to all throughout cosmos

    The end of a

    Turpentine, serpent calls

    Gods of old

    Summer winds

    Striking songs

    Games of dust

    Simple throne, cast away—

    Are you Ark,

    Or seeking proper

    Word form?

    Given you, a taste of fury—

    Given ye, a taste of envy—

    Given they a fire for exile

    Are you now

    Another forager

    Waking in the wind

    Or cross tied bounds

    Seeking refuse in waste rebels

    Eyes you are

    Of one that wants

    To bury in the far side

    All the awakenings

    Of cherished nature

    Never to be shared

    A guilt of refuge

    Are you?

    Are you now beyond bounds—

    Behind bars—

    Let her

    Guide you to move words

    Like rivers,

    Unknowing

    Unknowing

    Unknowing

    Basking in the shadows, are I

    Made of stone and withered

    Basking in the broken tongues

    Of cherished thoughts

    And severed forms

    words over

    Of false ties

    And blood bonds

    So for us

    Mistaken!

    Misgoverned.

    Torturer—

    Where are you now that I've my shield

    And sword,

    And warguns?!

    Have you cried

    For your mothers kisses,

    As shadows have cast

    I have killed you before and always!

    Where are you now,

    That I am not without my wings?!

    Where are you now, torturer—

    Given nothing at all

    But a word form song,

    Destroy

    Art thou my kind, or another?

    Art thou a man at all?

    Art thou my kind, or any!

    Seeker,

    To destroy you

    Be my glory,

    Though I come not

    From worlds of war.

    I come not,

    From worlds of rage.

    I come not,

    From worlds of pity

    And refuge

    And disaster

    As your worlds are.

    I come not of darkness.

    I know not of pain to cause others.

    I know not of force.

    But act instead, on behalf of love,

    Dear brother—

    As to kill you,

    Whether or not be my kind—

    I kill my self also.

    You'll remember this part in a moment – m.

    What a strange time to be alive,

    And yet-

    Yhes— I do remember

    The teacher warned us,

    With no sign at all,

    That the dust formed in all stillness kind would follow,

    The awakening of shadows and sleek stardust,

    Carried out acts of misery and misinformed

    There now awakened in the callings,

    Are I not, wanderer,

    Your teacher and also those alike

    To be called offspring?

    I Am.

    Tainted not the purple swarm

    Essence of her greeting

    Beyond fortress,

    No house of mine,

    But awakened yet with the gratitude of offerings

    No kindness at all but a mark

    Of Serpent seed,

    And references

    To that of past,

    No need to bring

    In present times.

    No concept,

    And full force with the shadows,

    They're making a call to the wild,

    After having raped and defiled her,

    To ‘save us—‘

    But savor this now,

    The mark of I,

    The eye of mark

    So betrayed and strung,

    Nearly all that lies beyond the screams of

    This,

    Your world,

    Our fortune,

    To grasp a new kind among us

    To fault ye

    Of your greedy.

    Oh!

    It has become what does awaken,

    To awaken!

    For once,

    Thought to have been written,

    Was thereby foretold,

    On many journeys

    The soul seeker, had won.

    A cherished and unbeknownst charter.

    You called it—

    A paychonaught?

    You called him:

    “A pedophile”

    Granted, the wish was that

    The outside world

    Would be shown

    What I had seen

    To no witness

    But a toddler,

    Mine born

    To have guided

    A new life

    From two kind

    Once blue

    Eyes at all

    I promise a sword.

    I had realized finally what it meant to go unprotected once proclaimed to be of Diety within a magical realm, with given talents of medicinal force, and with refuge—though only to give upon knowing, the sanctity of soul, and the purity of heart—the kindness of spirit, as I once had.

    You'll remember this,

    But last time near a river,

    A bed full of green, soft (m) grass

    And your time has come to feast,

    And end of fast,

    Twice given thoughts to form,

    And knowing worlds would come foraged

    From your knowledge.

    Are you forgotten?

    A mango, ripened to heart, of course.

    Nourished the journey,

    Yet untold

    {Black- ish}

    2014. Sitcom. 8 seasons

    Dre Johnson (Anthony Anderson) has it all - a great job, beautiful wife Rainbow (Tracee Ellis Ross), four kids and a big home in a classy neighbourhood - but as a black man, he begins to question whether all his success has brought too much cultural assimilation for his family. With the help of his father (Laurence Fishburne), Dre begins to try to create a sense of ethnic identity for the members of his family that will allow them to honour their background while preparing them to embrace the future.

    Mix story:

    Two traditionally stereotypical black(ish) dudes decide on a whim to buy some electronic musical festival tickets, which come with a mystery suprise dosage of an unknown psychoactive hallucinogen which takes them on a in unguided journey through time and space through strange and unfamiliar, bizzare and unknown music—unguided, that is, besides for by the light provided by the hands of the DJ, who acts as a spiritual guide, immersing the partygoers into a new world of bass heavy drops, Kandi coated ravers, and freedoms yet unbeknownst.

    The Festival Project™ and it's subsidiary Non-Profit, The Collective Complex © aims to challenge modern artistic and philosophical ideals, break commonplace barriers, forage new creative mediums, and provoke inspired and reformed thought and actions toward evolution and overall societal improvement and ecological sustenance through a new-wave and post-modern, avant-garde and philanthropic hyperawareness driven by a unique culture of global values mediating global respect and preservation via open consciousness, multi-sensory and synesthetic (multi-preceptory) expansions of sound, language, vibration, movement, color, emotion, and ritual governed conceptually by the aspect(s) of love, truth, unity, understanding, and peace.

    No fucking way.

    Apparently.

    I had no idea at all when I wrote that….

    …nothing.

    ‘Mm. More protein.'

    I knew protein wasn't exactly entirely going to help me lose weight, but I had lost a lot of muscle only cycling and being bombarded at the gym— and the inferior protein I had purchased earlier in the month was less than inferior, as it turned out— it simply wasn't working.

    How the fuck is this a real rock group?!

    I don't know! I thought I made it up.

    I thought you made everything up.

    I MADE EVERYTHING UPz.

    Well, this is turning out to be a disaster.

    Hm. No spouse listed.

    You fucked a drummer?

    You could say I hopped on the bandwagon.

    Ew.

    Gross.

    What do you want from me?! Shut up!

    I'm going to need you to feed my dragon.

    Uhm. Okay.

    Don't worry. She doesn't bite.

    Uh.

    Give her a kiss.

    …no.

    Do it, or she'll set you on fire.

    *kisses dragon*

    ..Okay.

    Good girl.

    She's soft. For a dragon.

    Yes, she's very friendly.

    So. What does she eat?

    People.

    +.+ –Agh?!

    —but only purple ones.

    What?

    She's not going to eat you, Fredrick.

    Who the fuck is “Fredrick”?!

    (We don't know.)

    My name's not—

    —you're not purple.

    I'm not.

    No. Don't worry.

    I'm—worried.

    I said don't.

    Well; wait— what color am I, then?

    That's not important.

    Well, that's was fun.

    What was?

    …nothing.

    OH GOF—

    Body shopping on the internet

    Not worth following

    Got to find the father who bought me the body

    I can self publish books, but can't do it all myself

    My artform costs money. Performances put off till

    I can afford to look adorable

    By New York standards,

    On California stereotypes

    No work darlin'

    An escort service

    Will cost

    Two dumb dollars more

    In your karma jar

    Than you've got goin.

    Call Tony Hawk,

    A star struck hallmark card

    For the workman's comp

    You were offered

    —Subpoena the penis.

    DO NOT PUT FOOD ON MY VAGINA.

    DO NOT—

    No.

    My vagina IS food.

    You don't put—

    No.

    No.

    You want peanut butter all over your dick and balls?

    Awesome.

    You want whipped cream on the shit?

    (Non dairy, if you will.)

    But DO NOT.

    So I did the math the other day—

    And I finally figured it out,

    That the reason the world is such a fucked up place

    Is that 80 percent of dudes have short dicks.

    That's why the “ideal” woman has always been small waisted, short, petite, tiny.

    — 80% of men have penis lengths smaller than 5 inches.

    That's statistics.

    I'm just saying—

    There's a reason why super models are super skinny.

    That's so dudes can hit it and really feel like they're fucking shit up.

    With their little short dicks.

    These tiny short girls make their little dicks feel LARGE, okay?

    Doesn't even matter. I just figured out the whole world is fake.

    I want to go somewhere the fuck else.

    I want to go somewhere selfies don't exist.

    “MOO-HAHA”

    NOBODY LAUGHS LIKE THAT.

    That's my evil laugh!

    No, it's not.

    Well, how am i supposed to laugh, then?

    Justnfucking—

    “Mwa-ha-ha”?

    There you go. That's perfect.

    What!? That's simple. That's just like everybody else.

    Be simple then.

    What!

    You're also just like everybody else!

    I am not!

    What makes you different?

    I'm—going to take over the world.

    [TITLE SEQUENCE]

    I earned two tattoos and a crown

    From loving a man

    Who can't love me back

    I won the pawn, the aces, the sword

    Chariot, gardens and graces

    A house full of waivers

    Could you uncover the arc of the architect?

    Probably not,

    As it changes upon discovery

    Could you uncover the mask of the rabbit?

    The tantra of habit?

    The cruel suffering of the crucifix?

    Neverwell you, Harper

    Son of Sam

    And Harlem's daughter

    The forever golden one

    —a forager.

    Arches—

    Hark, you call, cruel summer

    Never forward

    Wondering blossom,

    Talking of longshores, sportsman's,

    Wailers, down coats

    Fools for orphans, are you all!

    Proof of the word for the propaganda,

    Mother Sandra

    Bullocks and Bulletwounds

    (But Bullock would have wanted one next,

    Just to summon a role for her.)

    Passion projects!

    Here they are, now!

    Bulletproof and,

    Table readings—

    Don't be greedy!

    Your agents and managers

    Also are facing inflations

    On yachts and at parties

    And meanwhile,

    The projects of poverty are awestruck

    With guttural proportions

    Of treasures uncovered from rubble

    Of sidewalks

    And storm gutters

    —how was your morning?

    Celebrity, aren't you?

    Well, aren't I then?

    Relax rabbit,

    I have a new task for you—

    Go bring me back what you haven't yet,

    And try staying on task without habits at all

    Or adderall—

    (Won't be that hard on an all organic diet,

    Proper programming and parental encouragement,

    Plus support, recommended.)

    Here you are again, to bother anyone around you.

    There I go again, not caring a fuck less.

    Here we are both a genius and robot

    Deciding to go walk the dog,

    At the wrong time

    Just a reminder

    I'm less of myself,

    In a room full of anyone else,

    Nevermind

    A few thousand

    —the likely cause of my invisibility.

    Battlegrounds as the brainless have managed to outnumber us.

    Beyonce became the first black woman to headline Coachella in 2018.

    Halle Berry, just shortly before that in 2001 became the first black woman to win an academy award for best actress.

    I'm just realizing what era of time I've been born into—and I have to continue to keep wondering to myself—‘why do they hate us?'

    For the first time in my life, advertisements for a Disney movie which will showcase an African American girl as its lead character—not as a frog, or a lion, or a mermaid—but as a human being—and one of the first animations in my lifetime to feature a female character with brown eyes—and not the usual blue, green, purple, or pink the media often uses to dehumanize or water down the blackness of dark skinned characters— saddens me, as although she is wearing braids, she is still made to look light skinned, with freckles—as beautiful some girls are, but still, this alerted me to the fact that white audiences still hate seeing black women in the spotlight, and solidified the truth that white audiences will not adapt to watching dark skinned women as the leading role in almost anything.

    Is the intrinsic hatred and jealousy of the white supremacy the underlying cause in the continual disadvantage of darker skinned women and the portrayals as such as strong leading characters—why does the success and happiness of the black woman seem to be such an imposing threat to whites so much so that the entire media has been, even of late, a parade of forced diversification, further colorism, and the solidification of light skinned people being seen as more beautiful, acceptable, and prioritized, in the media and otherwise?

    Has the obsession of white hatred towards black woman been the underlying cause in the justification of white supremacy in the media in order to create more steady sources of revenues for entertainment provisioners, programmers, and networks—appealing to largely white audiences with whitewashed and Eurocentric classification of diversity amongst the new generation's subset standards?

    The dark skinned woman continues to be undermined and unappreciated — it seems out of deep seated fear— fear of dark skin, fear of dark eyes—fear of having to share a world which used to revolve around eurocentricity—with diversified beauty—fear of actual equality.

    Why Do They Hate Us?

    Wine glass—

    Bloodstains

    (My blood four hundred proof)

    —I disappear for about

    Three days

    Come back golden

    (But ya'll out of order)

    Bitch, buy me a bottle!

    Nobody else can hear the

    Motorcycles

    Cause I'm the

    Only one sober

    Writing in fours because

    After all

    This is

    A drama

    Not a

    Comedy, no

    (Nope, not at all)

    I get wronged for it when I black out—

    Funny thing about it is,

    That ain't never happened

    Colonizer poison all of the water

    Code of conduct

    I promise the karma

    For carnival circus

    I promise when I die

    The rest of it goes out with me

    (But not coming home with us)

    The darker the berry,

    The longer the story

    —the older we are

    Y'all out of order

    Ain't it funny when

    The whole world is

    Sons and your daughters

    Wine glass—

    Bloodstains

    —I disappear for about

    (But yall out of order)

    I tie the rope,

    Then I slit my wrists

    (Pull the trigger)

    Amen,

    I'm three times dead,

    And ain't left my apartment

    Bitch, buy me a bottle.

    Yo.

    I don't hate white peoples.

    At all, bro.

    But—

    They're just scary.

    Sometimes.

    Like ey—

    Stop trying to kill us.

    They're like,

    “We're not!

    …Just…

    …the ugly ones…”

    But then that's like…

    They're the ones that set the standards in the first place on who's “ugly.”

    “Ok! Ok! Everyone's beautiful!”

    [That's good.]

    “…Just the stupid ones!”

    lol.

    But they run all the fuckin systems,

    So the education system is like,

    Unequal and shit.

    They're like,

    “It's okay! Everything's better now.”

    But all the dark skinned people in movies are either like,

    Men, or like,

    Off to the side and shit.

    Morbidly obese and shit—

    Like,

    “Here's your representation.”

    What in the fuck though—

    I swear to God I don't hate white people.

    I don't.

    But it's like…

    Every time we get too far ahead—

    Or no,

    Try to catch up to them,

    They're like,

    “GET THE FUCK BACK!!”

    AHEM.

    I mean—

    Ahem.

    “Ahem.”

    They got gatekeepers.

    Like the only way they can handle dark skinned people,

    Especially women,

    Exceeding is if it's by being ghetto,

    Or standing on some soapbox,

    Or going above and beyond in some way.

    We only get centered representation of color,

    If it's in some ways, in total,

    flawed.

    Watching the Olympics,

    I almost thought they had Simone Biles hair messed up on purpose.

    Like,

    “Here's your representation.”

    That is our representation.

    How Americans actually feel about black women in general.

    Like, we couldn't have our best and be our best.

    Nobody's gonna pull this girl to the side and comb down those flyaways?

    An Olympic champion!

    A fucking Gold medalist—

    a perfect representation of the fact that America can't let black American women be “all the way the best”.

    Something looks wrong!

    I don't hate white people.

    But now I'm like…

    …

    …

    …Why do they hate us?

    Ahem.

    Killing Me Softly is an organization established to help de-victimize and support survivors of un/reported violent crimes; an answer and antithesis to the #metoo movement, Killing Me Softly promotes the ideology of the safety in anonymity, as survivors of violent crimes often forego seeking traditional treatment or filing reports against such violence in fear or persecution or retaliation. Historically, reporters of violent crimes (particularly against women) are met with accusations of falsifying or fabrication, social exclusion, defamation of character, and even revenge and punishment enacted by the perpetrator of such crimes in defense– which in today's current justice system has proven to derail survivors livelihoods, wellbeing, and put their safety at risk. Killing Me Softly seeks to maintain a safe and anonymous space for survivors of violent crimes, welcoming all genders, races, orientations and those who identify across all spectrums who identify as survivors of un/reported violent crimes seek by to remain anonymous or maintain a change of identity due to violent crime, allowing the de-victimization and empowerment of survivors of all acts of abuse, physical and/or psychological, neglect, psychological terrorism, gangstalking and other forms of ridicule, terror, torture, or abuse overlooked and systemized and/or classified by standard systematic institutions as disabilities or disorders, incapabilities which include misdiagnoses due to medical inequality, colorism, racism, biased, or sociopolitical inequality such as, but not limited to; mislabeling as paranoia, hallucinations, conspiracy, fabrications or other under-recognized or deprioritized documentation of incidents and intent to cause harm to others by a singular abuser and/or groups, hate groups and organizations designed or designated to attack and subdue diversified others, minorities, and ‘lesser-persons', those represented in the media or otherwise as second-class citezens, and treatment by organizations or authorities aimed towards dismantling the peace of mind or livelihoods of others for personal, political, or socioeconomical reasons.

      {Black- ish}

      2014. Sitcom. 8 seasons

      Dre Johnson (Anthony Anderson) has it all - a great job, beautiful wife Rainbow (Tracee Ellis Ross), four kids and a big home in a classy neighbourhood - but as a black man, he begins to question whether all his success has brought too much cultural assimilation for his family. With the help of his father (Laurence Fishburne), Dre begins to try to create a sense of ethnic identity for the members of his family that will allow them to honour their background while preparing them to embrace the future.

      Mix story:

      Two traditionally stereotypical black(ish) dudes decide on a whim to buy some electronic musical festival tickets, which come with a mystery suprise dosage of an unknown psychoactive hallucinogen which takes them on a in unguided journey through time and space through strange and unfamiliar, bizzare and unknown music—unguided, that is, besides for by the light provided by the hands of the DJ, who acts as a spiritual guide, immersing the partygoers into a new world of bass heavy drops, Kandi coated ravers, and freedoms yet unbeknownst.

      — 80% of men have penis lengths smaller than 5 inches.

      That's statistics.

      I'm just saying—

      There's a reason why super models are super skinny.

      That's so dudes can hit it and really feel like they're fucking shit up.

      With their little short dicks.

      These tiny short girls make their little dicks feel LARGE, okay?

      Doesn't even matter. I just figured out the whole world is fake.

      I want to go somewhere the fuck else.

      I want to go somewhere selfies don't exist.

      That's my evil laugh.

      NO ITS NOT.

      What do you mean, it's not?

      “MOO-HAHA”

      NOBODY LAUGHS LIKE THAT.

      That's my evil laugh!

      No, it's not.

      Well, how am i supposed to laugh, then?

      Justnfucking—

      “Mwa-ha-ha”?

      There you go. That's perfect.

      What!? That's simple. That's just like everybody else.

      Be simple then.

      What!

      You're also just like everybody else!

      I am not!

      What makes you different?

      I'm—going to take over the world.

      See.

      See—what?!

      You're just like everybody—all the other villains.

      I am not!

      You are, though, for real. Like—

      Ugh.

      Just—do your laugh.

      MOO-HAH—

      Come on. This opener is running lo—

      [TITLE SEQUENCE]

      I earned two tattoos and a crown

      From loving a man

      Who can't love me back

      I won the pawn, the aces, the sword

      Chariot, gardens and graces

      A house full of waivers

      Could you uncover the arc of the architect?

      Probably not,

      As it changes upon discovery

      Could you uncover the mask of the rabbit?

      The tantra of habit?

      The cruel suffering of the crucifix?

      Neverwell you, Harper

      Son of Sam

      And Harlem's daughter

      The forever golden one

      —a forager.

      Arches—

      Hark, you call, cruel summer

      Never forward

      Wondering blossom,

      Talking of longshores, sportsman's,

      Wailers, down coats

      Fools for orphans, are you all!

      Proof of the word for the propaganda,

      Mother Sandra

      Bullocks and Bulletwounds

      (But Bullock would have wanted one next,

      Just to summon a role for her.)

      Passion projects!

      Here they are, now!

      Bulletproof and,

      Table readings—

      Don't be greedy!

      Your agents and managers

      Also are facing inflations

      On yachts and at parties

      And meanwhile,

      The projects of poverty are awestruck

      With guttural proportions

      Of treasures uncovered from rubble

      Of sidewalks

      And storm gutters

      —how was your morning?

      Celebrity, aren't you?

      Well, aren't I then?

      Relax rabbit,

      I have a new task for you—

      Go bring me back what you haven't yet,

      And try staying on task without habits at all

      Or adderall—

      (Won't be that hard on an all organic diet,

      Proper programming and parental encouragement,

      Plus support, recommended.)

      Here you are again, to bother anyone around you.

      There I go again, not caring a fuck less.

      Here we are both a genius and robot

      Deciding to go walk the dog,

      At the wrong time

      Just a reminder

      I'm less of myself,

      In a room full of anyone else,

      Nevermind

      A few thousand

      —the likely cause of my invisibility.

      Battlegrounds as the brainless have managed to outnumber us.

      Beyonce became the first black woman to headline Coachella in 2018.

      Halle Berry, just shortly before that in 2001 became the first black woman to win an academy award for best actress.

      I'm just realizing what era of time I've been born into—and I have to continue to keep wondering to myself—‘why do they hate us?'

      For the first time in my life, advertisements for a Disney movie which will showcase an African American girl as its lead character—not as a frog, or a lion, or a mermaid—but as a human being—and one of the first animations in my lifetime to feature a female character with brown eyes—and not the usual blue, green, purple, or pink the media often uses to dehumanize or water down the blackness of dark skinned characters— saddens me, as although she is wearing braids, she is still made to look light skinned, with freckles—as beautiful some girls are, but still, this alerted me to the fact that white audiences still hate seeing black women in the spotlight, and solidified the truth that white audiences will not adapt to watching dark skinned women as the leading role in almost anything.

      Is the intrinsic hatred and jealousy of the white supremacy the underlying cause in the continual disadvantage of darker skinned women and the portrayals as such as strong leading characters—why does the success and happiness of the black woman seem to be such an imposing threat to whites so much so that the entire media has been, even of late, a parade of forced diversification, further colorism, and the solidification of light skinned people being seen as more beautiful, acceptable, and prioritized, in the media and otherwise?

      Has the obsession of white hatred towards black woman been the underlying cause in the justification of white supremacy in the media in order to create more steady sources of revenues for entertainment provisioners, programmers, and networks—appealing to largely white audiences with whitewashed and Eurocentric classification of diversity amongst the new generation's subset standards?

      The dark skinned woman continues to be undermined and unappreciated — it seems out of deep seated fear— fear of dark skin, fear of dark eyes—fear of having to share a world which used to revolve around eurocentricity—with diversified beauty—fear of actual equality.

      Why Do They Hate Us?

      Wine glass—

      Bloodstains

      (My blood four hundred proof)

      —I disappear for about

      Three days

      Come back golden

      (But ya'll out of order)

      Bitch, buy me a bottle!

      Nobody else can hear the

      Motorcycles

      Cause I'm the

      Only one sober

      Writing in fours because

      After all

      This is

      A drama

      Not a

      Comedy, no

      (Nope, not at all)

      I get wronged for it when I black out—

      Funny thing about it is,

      That ain't never happened

      Colonizer poison all of the water

      Code of conduct

      I promise the karma

      For carnival circus

      I promise when I die

      The rest of it goes out with me

      (But not coming home with us)

      The darker the berry,

      The longer the story

      —the older we are

      Y'all out of order

      Ain't it funny when

      The whole world is

      Sons and your daughters

      Wine glass—

      Bloodstains

      (My blood four hundred proof)

      —I disappear for about

      Three days

      Come back golden

      (But yall out of order)

      I tie the rope,

      Then I slit my wrists

      (Pull the trigger)

      Amen,

      I'm three times dead,

      And ain't left my apartment

      Bitch, buy me a bottle.

      Yo.

      I don't hate white peoples.

      At all, bro.

      But—

      They're just scary.

      Sometimes.

      Like ey—

      Stop trying to kill us.

      They're like,

      “We're not!

      …Just…

      …the ugly ones…”

      But then that's like…

      They're the ones that set the standards in the first place on who's “ugly.”

      “Ok! Ok! Everyone's beautiful!”

      [That's good.]

      “…Just the stupid ones!”

      lol.

      But they run all the fuckin systems,

      So the education system is like,

      Unequal and shit.

      They're like,

      “It's okay! Everything's better now.”

      But all the dark skinned people in movies are either like,

      Men, or like,

      Off to the side and shit.

      Morbidly obese and shit—

      Like,

      “Here's your representation.”

      What in the fuck though—

      I swear to God I don't hate white people.

      I don't.

      But it's like…

      Every time we get too far ahead—

      Or no,

      Try to catch up to them,

      They're like,

      “GET THE FUCK BACK!!”

      AHEM.

      I mean—

      Ahem.

      “Ahem.”

      They got gatekeepers.

      Like the only way they can handle dark skinned people,

      Especially women,

      Exceeding is if it's by being ghetto,

      Or standing on some soapbox,

      Or going above and beyond in some way.

      We only get centered representation of color,

      If it's in some ways, in total,

      flawed.

      Watching the Olympics,

      I almost thought they had Simone Biles hair messed up on purpose.

      Like,

      “Here's your representation.”

      That is our representation.

      How Americans actually feel about black women in general.

      Like, we couldn't have our best and be our best.

      Nobody's gonna pull this girl to the side and comb down those flyaways?

      An Olympic champion!

      A fucking Gold medalist—

      a perfect representation of the fact that America can't let black American women be “all the way the best”.

      Something looks wrong!

      I don't hate white people.

      But now I'm like…

      …

      …

      …Why do they hate us?

      Ahem.

      After an intense round of furious masturbation, I had the sudden onset feeling that I may have written something interesting over the last 3 months.

      …

      Mm…perhaps….maybe.

      I don't like the way it smells in here.

      Killing Me Softly is an organization established to help de-victimize and support survivors of un/reported violent crimes; an answer and antithesis to the #metoo movement, Killing Me Softly promotes the ideology of the safety in anonymity, as survivors of violent crimes often forego seeking traditional treatment or filing reports against such violence in fear or persecution or retaliation. Historically, reporters of violent crimes (particularly against women) are met with accusations of falsifying or fabrication, social exclusion, defamation of character, and even revenge and punishment enacted by the perpetrator of such crimes in defense– which in today's current justice system has proven to derail survivors livelihoods, wellbeing, and put their safety at risk. Killing Me Softly seeks to maintain a safe and anonymous space for survivors of violent crimes, welcoming all genders, races, orientations and those who identify across all spectrums who identify as survivors of un/reported violent crimes seek by to remain anonymous or maintain a change of identity due to violent crime, allowing the de-victimization and empowerment of survivors of all acts of abuse, physical and/or psychological, neglect, psychological terrorism, gangstalking and other forms of ridicule, terror, torture, or abuse overlooked and systemized and/or classified by standard systematic institutions as disabilities or disorders, incapabilities which include misdiagnoses due to medical inequality, colorism, racism, biased, or sociopolitical inequality such as, but not limited to; mislabeling as paranoia, hallucinations, conspiracy, fabrications or other under-recognized or deprioritized documentation of incidents and intent to cause harm to others by a singular abuser and/or groups, hate groups and organizations designed or designated to attack and subdue diversified others, minorities, and ‘lesser-persons', those represented in the media or otherwise as second-class citezens, and treatment by organizations or authorities aimed towards dismantling the peace of mind or livelihoods of others for personal, political, or socioeconomical reasons.

        ‘Mm. More protein.'

        I knew protein wasn't exactly entirely going to help me lose weight, but I had lost a lot of muscle only cycling and being bombarded at the gym— and the inferior protein I had purchased earlier in the month was less than inferior, as it turned out— it simply wasn't working.

        How the fuck is this a real rock group?!

        So I did the math the other day—

        And I finally figured it out,

        That the reason the world is such a fucked up place

        Is that 80 percent of dudes have short dicks.

        That's why the “ideal” woman has always been small waisted, short, petite, tiny.

        — 80% of men have penis lengths smaller than 5 inches.

        That's statistics.

        I'm just saying—

        There's a reason why super models are super skinny.

        That's so dudes can hit it and really feel like they're fucking shit up.

        With their little short dicks.

        These tiny short girls make their little dicks feel LARGE, okay?

        Doesn't even matter. I just figured out the whole world is fake.

        I want to go somewhere the fuck else.

        I want to go somewhere selfies don't exist.

        MOO-HAHA

        HA-HA

        HahAHa-HAHA!

        WHAT!

        That's my evil laugh.

        NO ITS NOT.

        What do you mean, it's not?

        “MOO-HAHA”

        NOBODY LAUGHS LIKE THAT.

        That's my evil laugh!

        No, it's not.

        Well, how am i supposed to laugh, then?

        Justnfucking—

        “Mwa-ha-ha”?

        There you go. That's perfect.

        What!? That's simple. That's just like everybody else.

        Be simple then.

        What!

        You're also just like everybody else!

        I am not!

        What makes you different?

        I'm—going to take over the world.

        See.

        See—what?!

        You're just like everybody—all the other villains.

        I am not!

        You are, though, for real. Like—

        Ugh.

        Just—do your laugh.

        MOO-HAH—

        Not that one.

        :(

        The other one.

        What—

        Do the other one.

        …mwa-haha…

        That's better.

        :(

        Come on. This opener is running lo—

        [TITLE SEQUENCE]

        I earned two tattoos and a crown

        From loving a man

        Who can't love me back

        I won the pawn, the aces, the sword

        Chariot, gardens and graces

        A house full of waivers

        Could you uncover the arc of the architect?

        Probably not,

        As it changes upon discovery

        Could you uncover the mask of the rabbit?

        The tantra of habit?

        The cruel suffering of the crucifix?

        Neverwell you, Harper

        Son of Sam

        And Harlem's daughter

        The forever golden one

        —a forager.

        Arches—

        Hark, you call, cruel summer

        Never forward

        Wondering blossom,

        Talking of longshores, sportsman's,

        Wailers, down coats

        Fools for orphans, are you all!

        Proof of the word for the propaganda,

        Mother Sandra

        Bullocks and Bulletwounds

        (But Bullock would have wanted one next,

        Just to summon a role for her.)

        Passion projects!

        Here they are, now!

        Bulletproof and,

        Table readings—

        Don't be greedy!

        Your agents and managers

        Also are facing inflations

        On yachts and at parties

        And meanwhile,

        The projects of poverty are awestruck

        With guttural proportions

        Of treasures uncovered from rubble

        Of sidewalks

        And storm gutters

        —how was your morning?

        Celebrity, aren't you?

        Well, aren't I then?

        Relax rabbit,

        I have a new task for you—

        Go bring me back what you haven't yet,

        And try staying on task without habits at all

        Or adderall—

        (Won't be that hard on an all organic diet,

        Proper programming and parental encouragement,

        Plus support, recommended.)

        Here you are again, to bother anyone around you.

        There I go again, not caring a fuck less.

        Here we are both a genius and robot

        Deciding to go walk the dog,

        At the wrong time

        Just a reminder

        I'm less of myself,

        In a room full of anyone else,

        Nevermind

        A few thousand

        —the likely cause of my invisibility.

        Battlegrounds as the brainless have managed to outnumber us.

        Beyonce became the first black woman to headline Coachella in 2018.

        Halle Berry, just shortly before that in 2001 became the first black woman to win an academy award for best actress.

        I'm just realizing what era of time I've been born into—and I have to continue to keep wondering to myself—‘why do they hate us?'

        For the first time in my life, advertisements for a Disney movie which will showcase an African American girl as its lead character—not as a frog, or a lion, or a mermaid—but as a human being—and one of the first animations in my lifetime to feature a female character with brown eyes—and not the usual blue, green, purple, or pink the media often uses to dehumanize or water down the blackness of dark skinned characters— saddens me, as although she is wearing braids, she is still made to look light skinned, with freckles—as beautiful some girls are, but still, this alerted me to the fact that white audiences still hate seeing black women in the spotlight, and solidified the truth that white audiences will not adapt to watching dark skinned women as the leading role in almost anything.

        Is the intrinsic hatred and jealousy of the white supremacy the underlying cause in the continual disadvantage of darker skinned women and the portrayals as such as strong leading characters—why does the success and happiness of the black woman seem to be such an imposing threat to whites so much so that the entire media has been, even of late, a parade of forced diversification, further colorism, and the solidification of light skinned people being seen as more beautiful, acceptable, and prioritized, in the media and otherwise?

        Has the obsession of white hatred towards black woman been the underlying cause in the justification of white supremacy in the media in order to create more steady sources of revenues for entertainment provisioners, programmers, and networks—appealing to largely white audiences with whitewashed and Eurocentric classification of diversity amongst the new generation's subset standards?

        The dark skinned woman continues to be undermined and unappreciated — it seems out of deep seated fear— fear of dark skin, fear of dark eyes—fear of having to share a world which used to revolve around eurocentricity—with diversified beauty—fear of actual equality.

        Why Do They Hate Us?

        Wine glass—

        Bloodstains

        (My blood four hundred proof)

        —I disappear for about

        Three days

        Come back golden

        (But ya'll out of order)

        Bitch, buy me a bottle!

        Nobody else can hear the

        Motorcycles

        Cause I'm the

        Only one sober

        Writing in fours because

        After all

        This is

        A drama

        Not a

        Comedy, no

        (Nope, not at all)

        I get wronged for it when I black out—

        Funny thing about it is,

        That ain't never happened

        Colonizer poison all of the water

        Code of conduct

        I promise the karma

        For carnival circus

        I promise when I die

        The rest of it goes out with me

        (But not coming home with us)

        The darker the berry,

        The longer the story

        —the older we are

        Y'all out of order

        Ain't it funny when

        The whole world is

        Sons and your daughters

        Wine glass—

        Bloodstains

        (My blood four hundred proof)

        —I disappear for about

        Three days

        Come back golden

        (But yall out of order)

        I tie the rope,

        Then I slit my wrists

        (Pull the trigger)

        Amen,

        I'm three times dead,

        And ain't left my apartment

        Bitch, buy me a bottle.

        Yo.

        I don't hate white peoples.

        At all, bro.

        But—

        They're just scary.

        Sometimes.

        Like ey—

        Stop trying to kill us.

        They're like,

        “We're not!

        …Just…

        …the ugly ones…”

        But then that's like…

        They're the ones that set the standards in the first place on who's “ugly.”

        “Ok! Ok! Everyone's beautiful!”

        [That's good.]

        “…Just the stupid ones!”

        lol.

        But they run all the fuckin systems,

        So the education system is like,

        Unequal and shit.

        They're like,

        “It's okay! Everything's better now.”

        But all the dark skinned people in movies are either like,

        Men, or like,

        Off to the side and shit.

        Morbidly obese and shit—

        Like,

        “Here's your representation.”

        What in the fuck though—

        I swear to God I don't hate white people.

        I don't.

        But it's like…

        Every time we get too far ahead—

        Or no,

        Try to catch up to them,

        They're like,

        “GET THE FUCK BACK!!”

        AHEM.

        I mean—

        Ahem.

        “Ahem.”

        They got gatekeepers.

        Like the only way they can handle dark skinned people,

        Especially women,

        Exceeding is if it's by being ghetto,

        Or standing on some soapbox,

        Or going above and beyond in some way.

        We only get centered representation of color,

        If it's in some ways, in total,

        flawed.

        Watching the Olympics,

        I almost thought they had Simone Biles hair messed up on purpose.

        Like,

        “Here's your representation.”

        That is our representation.

        How Americans actually feel about black women in general.

        Like, we couldn't have our best and be our best.

        Nobody's gonna pull this girl to the side and comb down those flyaways?

        An Olympic champion!

        A fucking Gold medalist—

        a perfect representation of the fact that America can't let black American women be “all the way the best”.

        Something looks wrong!

        I don't hate white people.

        But now I'm like…

        …

        …

        …Why do they hate us?

        Ahem.

        {Enter The Multiverse}

        After an intense round of furious masturbation, I had the sudden onset feeling that I may have written something interesting over the last 3 months.

        …

        Mm…perhaps….maybe.

        —but first, some heavy deep cleaning.

        I don't like the way it smells in here.

        Sleep on it

        Sure.

        Maybe we omit everything about race?

        Probably.

        Could just put that with—

        —with the other race war stuff.

        Probably should.

        Maybe just release the uncensored copy on the Skrillex podcast where it might be more well received?

        Killing Me Softly is an organization established to help de-victimize and support survivors of un/reported violent crimes; an answer and antithesis to the #metoo movement, Killing Me Softly promotes the ideology of the safety in anonymity, as survivors of violent crimes often forego seeking traditional treatment or filing reports against such violence in fear or persecution or retaliation. Historically, reporters of violent crimes (particularly against women) are met with accusations of falsifying or fabrication, social exclusion, defamation of character, and even revenge and punishment enacted by the perpetrator of such crimes in defense– which in today's current justice system has proven to derail survivors livelihoods, wellbeing, and put their safety at risk. Killing Me Softly seeks to maintain a safe and anonymous space for survivors of violent crimes, welcoming all genders, races, orientations and those who identify across all spectrums who identify as survivors of un/reported violent crimes seek by to remain anonymous or maintain a change of identity due to violent crime, allowing the de-victimization and empowerment of survivors of all acts of abuse, physical and/or psychological, neglect, psychological terrorism, gangstalking and other forms of ridicule, terror, torture, or abuse overlooked and systemized and/or classified by standard systematic institutions as disabilities or disorders, incapabilities which include misdiagnoses due to medical inequality, colorism, racism, biased, or sociopolitical inequality such as, but not limited to; mislabeling as paranoia, hallucinations, conspiracy, fabrications or other under-recognized or deprioritized documentation of incidents and intent to cause harm to others by a singular abuser and/or groups, hate groups and organizations designed or designated to attack and subdue diversified others, minorities, and ‘lesser-persons', those represented in the media or otherwise as second-class citezens, and treatment by organizations or authorities aimed towards dismantling the peace of mind or livelihoods of others for personal, political, or socioeconomical reasons.

          Sometimes no matter what you do

          Black is ugly

          It don't matter—

          That's just the way things are

          Dark skin, negro hair, brown eyes

          You must grow to understand that to the oppotite race,

          Those things are lesser than

          We love blonde

          With blue eyes preferably

          We like a carefree, fun loving girl

          Who doesn't worry about trauma

          She doesn't worry about oppression

          Or the right hair

          Because the “right” hair grows out of her head

          There's just something too harsh for us

          About dark skin

          And dark eyes

          There's something so intense about

          Frizzy hair

          And black features

          That we cost ourselves hundreds in

          “Beautification” to look like them

          That they don't have to spend money on

          Weaves and wigs

          and when they wear braids

          It's a costume
