The Battlefield

Brothers and sisters, there's a war going on.  The ranks are gathered together and the lines are drawn. The plans are laid out, neatly, upon the table, waiting to be implemented.  The trumpet has sounded and the drum major has started beating out his crazy rhythms.

The "grunts" stand at the ready, tightly clutching their weapons, down in dirty, unclean trenches. The perverse smell of death and utter destruction mantles the outer reaches of this negative meeting place.

A tiny light bulb flickers, off and on, as if in anticipation of the devastation that is to follow.  Smoke rises from the ground. A voice cries out in the darkness, it's timbre filled with despair.  Mars sits on his pale horse, smiling with glee. All is NOT all right.

Where is this hellish scene taking place, you ask? Why, it's as close to you as your own independent thoughts.

This battle that I have described, in great detail, is right now taking place....IN YOUR MIND!

Pavlov, the scientist, proved centuries ago that the mind could be conditioned and manipulated if the right conditions were met.  The mind is controlled by certain impulses or reflexes that effect our every movement, physical or cerebral.  In the hands of the wrong someone, these impulses can be made to be thrown off track and when that happens, chaos ensues.

This government has continually practiced mind-control on it's citizens to keep them in their place. This is the truth.  In order for the New World Order to come into being, certain requirements MUST be met.  Independent  thought must be destroyed, Family values, morals and religious worship must
cease, sexual promiscuity must come to the forefront--destabilizing healthy relationships and marriage, a person must become psychologically unable to fight back against the system. This, and other modes of imperfect behavior like these, will lead to all our down fall.

My teacher taught me that everyone has a "right" orbit that they MUST follow--just like the celestial bodies.  Man must be MAN. Woman must be WOMAN and so on.  When the right alignment of our personal orbits are thrown off....worlds can collide.

You just don't "feel right." People start to get into "each other's business." You're always surrounded by negative "drama" of some sort.  Evil thoughts invade the mind. Depression formulates.  You can't function in a healthy relationship. Men try to be women, and women, visa verse.  This not to attack any one's personal life style.....just an analysis of a problem that effects us all or some of us.

Blak people, especially, have problems stemming from slavery, continued mis-education and negative traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation. WE, as a people, are out of our ORBIT.  WE are doing what must be done in order to control us.

Our minds have been tampered with, as proven by the document by Willie Lynch.  The will of blak folk were broken, long ago.  A man is not born a slave--no one is.  He must be "conditioned" to accept slavery as his way of  life.  Our  generation is just suffering from the residual effects of all the
dirty work inflicted by this government yesterday, today and tomorrow--if it has it's chance.

If you train a child to accept negative images of itself...it will exist NEGATIVELY--it knows no other way.  It will always look up to a child that is taught to look at itself in a superior manner and will become subordinate to that so-called higher "life-form."

A certain bourgeois friend of mine, when I was expressing my thoughts on blak issues, told me I was "out of my mind". I smiled at him and responded, "I'm not out of MY mind. I'm in my RIGHT mind. I'm out of this system's mind!"--or whatever "mind-set" it had, earmarked, for a blak man in this
country.

An Uncle Tom or Aunt Jemima is only a blak person who is mind controlled by this system.  It could be for personal or professional gain...doesn't matter, this individual has been sold, bought and paid for by white supremacy.  A casualty in the war for your mind.

The mind controls the actions and reactions of the individual.  When someone else holds the strings you become a puppet, dancing, in time, to the beat.

So, blak folk must gain control of their own, natural, way of thinking.  This will then translate into our own actions and this will translate into a better way of life for blak folk, in general.

Free your minds of ALL negative influences.  Think positive about the good things in your lives. Meditate on the best solutions to bring about determined changes. Seek the advice of others that care about you...they may have the answers you need.  Think twice--react once.  Educate yourself to the things you need to elevate your lifestyle.  Teach your children the generations of your family---ask the older persons, so, YOU can learn this yourself.  Mentor a youth in need of a role model. Be slow to violence and fast on your thoughts.

"As a man thinks...so is he."  The answers are all in your mind.

And when the sun sets on the battlefield....may you and yours stand victorious until time becomes just a foolish notion.

God bless you all
