okay kamala lost
think i will process it here
1st i was just stunned
stopped reading news
focused on my work
(which is both frstratinngn and satisfying)
wanted to quiit all superfluous activity
like this online game i play
pulled mi head into mmi shell
and licked mi wounds
but im kiinda recovering now
and starting to consider how
how to surive and evnn
finesse the next 4 years
assuming that there will be
another election in 4 years
it is not a given
we just dont know how far trump will ppuush ot
hard t set up a resistance whe you dont knoow
what you resisting
bonnie wass bummed, started talkinng about
canada, pportug, but as always i said im not
going anywhere, i dont foresee the hammer
fallling on mme, imm just bot important enuf
nd toko wiley a playa for basic hammers
but thats what all the latinos and the uncommitted
and the black trumpites,, et alll think too and i suspect
we are all in for a rude awkening
but we still got to wait tilll we see what he gon do
what he gon try to do, it looks llike a total wipe out
presidency, house, senate, courts they can do whatever
they please, nd lets not diiscount the maga militias
trump id coming for his enemies
jack smith liz cheney beware
he is going to weaponize justice the
miltary and intelligence - wow
he is going to betray our elllies and deliver
us into the clutches of our enemies
he is going to fiddle / play golf while we burn
and jd taliban vance surrounded by handmaids
dances on our smoldering pyres - wow
whoever woulda thought we would
have to live thru tiems like this
i wouldnt be suprised if we saw
the rise of hooded nightriders
already random blackfolk receving racists text
saying back too the cotton fields w/you
many of them children - we cant allow this
gon have to straighten up and fly right, yall
trump has unleashed repressed racism
andblackfolk gon need to take note
at least i wont have to put up w/blackfolk
begging for reparations, even the ;lamest
playa surely sees that blacks are no
longer in vogue, hopefully this will
help bring about mi holy people
a race of playas
and kamala, you run a good race girl, folk gotta
blame somembody so id withdraw, write your
story, dont ry to keep the spotlight
anf donnt take the attacks personal
recently did the memphite reading, well nov
last year where i told the memphis black
communty to brace themselves for this
condition, an annual memphite reading
at stax by rdocs traveling medicine show
this what we said: (FIND TEXT)
attend to the fundaments yall, got to
gound yorurself, high winds coming
i might have to do a substack
but i hate begging folk to readd mme
id rather just put the truth up here
annd folk come drink if they want
but blackfolk gon need soem guidance
to finesse the hammer soon upon us
those racists texts are indicative
of the 2nd reconstruction
the 1st one that followed the end of slavery and the
empowerment of blacks wit jim crow disenfranchisement
this one follows the obama years, (who appears to be a spent force
that scolding he gave was tonne deaf deaf, shoulda been
we gon need to address this yall, mounnt up)
i should try to do op ed for times or post
giving folk if not hope purpose, endurance
or at least clarity
blackfoolk and all humaiity will need
to survive the return of trump
i got to go, got a lot moore to say but i
got to get mi Work done, 7:11 am, the work
day is damn near gone, (niot really but it
benefits me too think s
ive made major if frustrating progress on novelconcept
wne. t in pulled out seed of the prophetic arc,,noow i got
to reqrite them so they fit new concept, him living in an
alternative holy memphis, the one he is trying
to conjure into being and the aarc of that boundary
fusion, or something, ii dont know
wht i do know is trying to write alll the nenw passages
it will require, him tryinng to be a destiny playa
wilkl be terrible passages and
thats whats stoppingn mme right now but i tell my
students, ignore the fact that they are terrible,
then finnd it difficult too take my own advice
okay im gone
o many books, so little time
got a lot more to say about the trump era
but i got even more to say about my vision
ie goot to clock my daily pages
mornings are strictly novel time, which mmeans
this post hhas cost me an hour maybe
that i will need to payback to novel
yesterday i made major progression on mi hanndpan
it frustrate me, im good but not good enuf yet
to be smmooth, but yesterday i was good enuf
9okay okay i was mushroom high) and took that
talking handpan to new heights - but i cant do
mi handpan less i get mi Work done
nasiclllyi think finessing trump
will mean letting him bring
america to its knees
it will be difficult to do so
the democrats like governing for
the people while the repubs
just like power snd consider
the gov their enemy, they will take moves
that are utter cruelty, and if bllackfolks tnik they
will be exempt they are sorely mistaken
samesame asians, arabs and latins et al
there will be quilsings like uncle thomas
nd colored magaites, there alwaays are
gunga dins ready to serve the raj but
the communities will be devested
and we have to ppreppare themm
to finesse the hammer
if we run for it who will defend
the marginal folk wo power to
defend themselves,
i got to go, ii got so
much work to do
im 74 years old and i can
hear the clock tickiing
so many books,
so little time
all my love
be safe
tick tock
