Leaders Of Today

Where are the leaders of today?

Somewhere working two jobs and barely getting any sleep?

Working hard, studying in college only not to get a job when they graduate? 

Where are our leaders of today?

Behind bars for a simple mistake, freedom taken for trying to make a way?

What have we done with the leaders of today?

Killed them with our dirty looks or our sharp words?

Why have we not lifted up the community in prayer? Or lead the blind to be able to see?

Why have we given up hope, on those who barely have any?

What happened to us being the light? And letting it shine in this world?

Let’s pray for those who lead us today and reach to lose who’ll lead us tomorrow! 

We are the leaders of today!

Just What I'm Feeling At The Time

I haven't blogged in a while. Honestly, I don't know what to blog about. I been saving my poetry for the book and all of my other thoughts are getting dumped in my circle's texts or iMessages. Speaking of technology. Here we have the world at our fingertips, do you think this has affected the meaning of communication. Since when does a text message suffice for a true conversation? How can you get to understand someone and build a friendship through typing and not conversing? I think texting is great, I use it often, but it doesn't replace having a conversation. I'm old school, I love talking on the phone to my friends and going to visit them. Technology is not a base to build any relationship, platonic or romantic. However, good ol' interpersonal communication never fails. Have a great day and call someone. A simple phone call could truly enhance someone's day. 

Peace,
