3am Chicken + Columbus Quesadilla

Cold 3am chicken over stainless steel sink.

Columbus quesadilla.

You take the stuffing.

I'll mash the potato.

You say tomato,

Or take one more step and I'll blow your fucking brains out!

“And that's where ketchup was started by your old Papy Joe.”

He taught the Indians to slave.

And the young girls, ta’ hoe.

Just seed one more aisle,

Just cut Pa one more rail.

There's Charlies arriving.

It's a labor half sale!

We thank all the men who made this country great!

They fondle each other and call it debate.

With statues erect all the way 'cross the land. There is one thing now, we all understand.

That Chris was a do-er.

A real boy's man!

And she is liar.

(Yes, that sounds like a plan!)

So wonder bread, mayonnaise with sliced cheese and fold.

We stand men before women.

And dumb Trumps the bold. Harlem, NYC.

A Shake In The Matter.

Have you ever had the thought, ‘If I were white, how different my experience would be. How much more opportunity I would’ve had. How much less stress and anxiety I might experience. How much more attention and validation I might’ve received. How much more money I might have made. How much more acceptance I might’ve felt. How much more ease with which I might’ve moved through the world without fear?’ Imagine that, an existence not governed by fear. And how not once would I have had to think about any of it. Because it would’ve just been there. Been a part of the truth. The air. There would be no space to move through because of the intrinsic ownership granted in the space in which I was, simply because I am. No guessing. No adjusting. Just fully taking up whole space wherever I went. So maybe this idea of white fragility, white questioning, white discomfort, white supremacy is actually good for all of us to experience and see. To have the switch flipped. For everyone to get even just a...

Happiness

April 08, 2011 Happiness Page 102 " We come to know happiness, joy and freedom. " Basic Text, p. 91 If someone stopped you on the street today and asked if you were happy, what would you say? "Well, gee, let's see... I have a place to live, food in the refrigerator, a job, my car is running... Well, yes, I guess I'm happy," you might respond. These are outward examples of things that many of us have traditionally associated with happiness. We often forget, however, that happiness is a choice; no one can make us happy. Happiness is what we find in our involvement with Narcotics Anonymous. The happiness we derive from a life focused on service to the addict who still suffers is great indeed. When we place service to others ahead of our own desires, we find that we take the focus off ourselves. As a result, we live a more contented, harmonious life. In being of service to others, we find our own needs more than fulfilled. Happiness. What is it, re...
