Heard Them Laughing; But Nothing Was Funny! (Part Eight)

 Coming through on this Saturday, usually a day of relaxation but we're putting work in  plus the science dropped is appropriate for any time frame!

This is what it do, holla at me if you know the deal but I heard some laughing when nothing was funny, playing some kind of mind game?

Especially those chilling in that comfort zone that was more like an infinite plateau.

Chilling out, laughing but nothing was funny; sheltering in place like the pandemic period or like its an underground bunker for when it all explodes? 

I was chilling out for a minute or two myself but my intuition was heightened by the strong winds caused by the storms; change on the horizon? 

Heard some laughing but nothing was funny, they were geeked up saying change was going to come like Sam Cooke! some thrilled by the prospects or maybe lovelorn?

Being built or torn down per the debatable circumstance concept introduced by Brotha O earlier?

Bad cards are dealt by these gamblers out for a fast buck aka corporations with their greedflation as prices go up; now like the Isley Brothers we've got work to do!

Heard some laughing but nothing was funny!  now practicing Escapism like that James Brown joint; once upon a dream?  they're intoxicated by drowsy kisses!

Oh what a night like the Dells! oh what a dream! sky high / intoxicated by those wet kisses!

Now awake, damn! the spells wore off and it was a rude awakening, one misses those episodes!

Heard some laughing but nothing was funny; reality? its hitting different, full of cruel / loathsome modes.

We Still Have A Different Vision (Part Nine)

 Coming through, reflecting on this Flashback Friday realizing some things never change; we still have a different vision!

Acting like we knew, it’s a blessing to be here on this Fabulous Friday; change will still come per Sam Cooke, the old school Baptist preacher up in Louisville said just keep living..

..plus govern ourselves accordingly when change does occur; it’s a Friday morning as I type this but night terrors? expected per the infinite darkness..

..from those waiting in it with their different vision / different version of reality; who’s fair with us? per the Flashback Friday reference Brotha O already mentioned the whole game is shady, a lot of skeletons in closets, bodies buried and other secrets!

Blame it on more than Halloween or even it's playlist, even though it’s the season for this and that folly. The vibe? observed the scene it’s all game! due to post pandemic economics with inflation and other factors it’s not jolly more like melancholy.

The vibe? after we observed the scene we’re ready to roll we’re on our way! a different vision is used as a fuel.

The vibe? we had to stay humble per the Main Ingredients everybody will play the fool..

..sometimes; Don’t Rush The Process was the word from Kaidi Tatham! I kept writing, told this concept you became my poetry as soon as I wrote it..
..on the loose leaf with the blue ink pen representing a different vision, loose with my belief? verbatim, my mind was quoted. Free thinker, way way out there but not like Kanye West, write a diary or love letters? either. This dude uses blinkers when I swerved with this different vision, the weightless freedom has my mind out in the ether.
