The days are still and mundane but yet,
My mind runs like a track star
One idea here and one thought there
Life makes us wonder why life is so unfair
The chocolate of my skin they call black
I guess that’s my colour,
I don’t think it’s an attack
I love my beautiful dark melanin,
It glistens in the sun that’s my skin
that’s my melanin
That’s my power,
Black
The colour of the hole my mind wanders in
The ideas running around
So many thoughts of different calibers
That’s my power
Black
My mind is analytic
But experiences so sympathetic
Black is what I’ve experienced
& love is what made me who I am
Happiness is my morning tea
& Mary Jane my nightly meditation
Notebooks filled with notes of my legacy
My plan, my work, my vision, my destiny
A planner, write it down and execute
That’s my power
Black
So many interests that need to be explored
& because of that hole in my mind
My routes will be secure
That’s my power
Black

Just Sixty Seconds
Oliver sat at a cold, grey steel-covered table. He knew he was next. The longer he sat here, the more confident he knew he wouldn’t make it. His hands were tied to the chair he was sitting on, pushed up against the steel table. A small camera in the corner of the ceiling with a tiny red flashing light was the only thing he was focused on. He felt sick to the stomach. He knew he didn’t have long.
