My powerlessness forces me to be humble. Yet, when I recognize who I really am in the scheme of things, I become enlightened. Suddenly I have access to all the power there is. I am a black man presently incarcerated in form, minus fact. I’m not so sure I readily give in to the idea of being lonely as this ad suggests. Being lonely is such an incomplete definition of my present state because the feelings and thoughts connected with loneliness aren’t positive. I can’t relate the word to being a part of my vibe or present state of being. I’m more comfortable with the idea that I have a desire to reach out to people outside of my immediate environment. The world I live in can seem to close in and make my existence small, limited, and hopeless which is everything I’m not, nor trying to be. My view of the present is the opportunity that it is; a time to correct myself and make better moves for the overall good of my life. While engaged in this process I develop inner qualities and strength to take with me to the next level in a forward movement regardless of circumstances. So, I seek interactions with people who are like me, in mind and spirit. People who are willing to explore the experience of communication using the vehicle of a pen to break through barriers and images that separate based on opinions and preconceived notions of surface truth that won’t allow people to keep it real and travel upon waves of ideas and thoughts, rolling with the ebb and flow of life tides to arrive at the shore of a new sunrise, born out of a necessity for an exchange.
