The Days Without Guys - Day 204

I paused my marathon reading to post this blog.

To speculate about a race out there, that seem to think they're above all. Back when I didn't know better, I thought there were only 3 kinds of people out there, the white, the colored, and my kind. I never once fathomed the prejudice that circulates the air so thickly constant. But, now, I can see just how niave I was. To believe that we can truly all live in the same society. How cynical that sounds. But how can any of us ever amount to much when dated back thousands of years ago, the white men deemed us the inferiors? And, being the fool we all are, instead of fighting off the prejudice of one man about all, we followed his lead and fought against each other for the man that will betray us without a sweat. Unbelievably, we've been duped for so long, no one has much left in them to fight. And those that have just been exposed to this tragic, fight so diligently, that no one would notice how, in the end, it is the white man that controls the final verdict and decreed our useless arms flaying is just a little kid's tantrum for not being the center of the attention.

Why do we allow the white man to label us and rule us? Yes, I understand that though there are activists out there that are fighting for what's its worth, but instead of fighting their own battles, why do we not band together and fight the evil with a greater force than mere sticks and pebbles? We were all told that the others were the ones that didn't earned our respect, but how can we believe this, coming from a man that doesn't see further than the whites of our eyes? We're like little plastic soldiers, strategically placed on spots that the man valued we deserved to roam, and every time we desire to cross the barrier that set us apart from him, he denies us with the words of "That is the place your kind deserves", because we'll never be anything in his eyes other than his tools of power.

And to no vial, our violent struggle to free our legs from the platform goes unheard but just viewed as childish tantrums that can be summarized as lack of morality because we've been stripped of all our dignity by force. And I applaud the white man for his genius work. For instead of minding our tactics of speaking, he appeals to the emotions that we feel. He tells us that we're better than others. That we can rise, we just need to keep the others at bay, and he will help us. He will provide the tool to raise us. But in order for us to be granted his benevolence help, we have to commit our dedication to appeasing his needs and desires. To offer someone help with no credit to back him up, no one's the wiser than the man for we were too grateful to doubt any of his words, and so we throw ourselves to keep the man happy for showing us the opportunity that we worked hard for but wasn't born to reach out and grab what was tied too high above our heads.

My rants may seem as plain words that make no sense, but just think, how ironic it is that my words will go unheard today. Because we're constantly being repressed into a box that we were stuffed into without our consent. But, more the fool is us when we throw our freedom out the door when we bargained our souls to the devil by ignoring the signs of a world filled with hatred of anything that is fair and light. So why can't everyone open their eyes and see the huge mistake by digging their own graves when their lack of "morality" is just giving the white man another push to obstruct our peace? Maybe we love being blind, so that'll lessen our responsibilities so we can spend our time bawling like babies over the lack of toys we're not able to gain by being an under-achiever. The possibilities are plenty, but then again, being true to our nature, who will even care to look deep into any corner for the cure to the inequality of life?

Ah. This post today is so weird. I feel like I have much more to say, but my metaphorical mind is dead for the night. So back to my marathon, that is, until the crawfish is done brewing. LOL.
