UNSTRAP YOURSELF

I decided to take the plundge, and see what a blog could do to help me link a series of thoughts together and research a way into the growing necessity for truth. By adding Unstrapped to the blog culture, I hope to share a perspective that will lead us to question our attachments which create a desire to own that which we idolize. I also want to bring up political and social diconnectivity. What are the issues we face today that mould us into who we are ideologically? Can we review our outlook? Can we learn to perceive in other ways? Is it possible to live a complete and simple life, and give others the respect of individualism? Through spoken word, rhyme, art, simply you, and prose- I invite readers to contribute their own stories and experiences. Is the weight of the world and it's incongruances in your head? Are you feeling tied down to someone or something? Are you feeling devoid of a sense of independence? Are you free, and want to share the freedom virus? Can you let go of your attachments and join a truly unstrapped world? More importantly, can you be real and true to yourself? If we can express ourselves freely, we can help each other come to a place of ease. Use this blog as a peaceful sanctuary where you can find a place to clear your mind and discover a refreshing new way to live! Through your interest here, we can get together and make this happen! The point? Spread this around like FIYA! Wear it with a smile that melts the layers away from the strapped. Let's talk about things that don't connect!

THE UNTOUCHABLES

Wow- I've been slacking and wondering around like a just discoverd bat! Here's one from last year.

Descubriendo sentimientos sobre los duros de este mundo.
Estamos viviendo entre ducho y los que son perdidos.
Could we ever jostle a word around like slum
If the lost could be found at no cost
To some of those who own the ground-
And I’m astounded by this draconian action
by those with custodians who feel satisfaction
Day in and day out
And their lack of intact
Shuns the human life and without strife
They call it untouchable?
And am I the fool to think by this expression
I might save one more fit of depression
Belonging to a poor soul who’s life’s a consta-recession
Shit. Let’s start the procession
I’m a middle man and a means to an end-
And I stand ready to lend
my Untouchables a helping hand,
Cuz all they ever deserved was a piece of land,
To feel safe, unharmed,
By the inevitable- contraband.
Whether it’s the Favelas, Kamagasaki, Barrios, or Dharavi-
How could you not feel like you’re in the hot seat?
You throw them around like they’re the dice in a game of Yahtzee-
You got your full-house, you got your chance,
Roll the triple six- you may as well be a Nazi!
You stumble around with your promos and your prophecies
You buy your million dollar toy dogs and Untouchable brands like Louis Vuitton and Versace.
And oh my gosh, did I hit the hammer on the nail?
Did you just catch this slam crush parellel?
My brain hurts, can’t you tell?
It’s beginning to swell, but I can’t dwell
On a cultural clash, I have to keep my chin up- I’m Jennif”realz
Pick through the pieces of this double entendre,
Were at a tipping point-
we gotta look beyond
the clash and hone in on this double Untouchable-
Let’s crash the debutant party
and mash the lunch-ables with the munchables
And feast up a serious sunny bowl… of cherries.
Chew on this- I know it can be done
Don’t just say screw it cuz it’s too much of a conundrum.
We can place caviar and grits on the same plate,
We can learn to love to bits and alleviate
all that which we discriminate.
Cuz what it really all boils down to,
Is, we essentially come from the same place,
We were all born naked and with a blank slate-
And we were all born without the game face.
They taught us to divide and conquer, homogenize, and assimilate.
But don’t believe the hype!
There’s only one side of the fence gate
We really are all alike, we really are all touchable.
And like someone said- we don’t bite!
Descubriendo sentimientos sobre los duros de este mundo
Estamos vivendo entre duchos y los que son perdidos.
So cut the crap, let’s get found, let’s Untouchables unite, let’s all of us come around!
