So Many Laughs
“But will it be funny?” No one answered immediately. A producer named Alvin Smollet had asked the question. He was tallish even while seated. He was thirty-two.

Sure Hands
Whether it's the great slog, Or the trample over lands, Or the heat of the Devil Dog In the fight with sure hands…. Whether it's the gray fog

Bolster the Might
When planes did soar, And each made a devastating bite; The eyes of the world saw the open door; A bright day turned like night.

Exotic Vs ‘Foreign’
When it comes to cars, the top rappers know their brands. From Ferrari, to Lamborghini, to Rolls Royce, to Bentley, hip hop artists’ lyrics have been riddled with these names. What they fail to mention when describing these luxury and sports cars is some luxury and sports cars are made in the US. Also, they seem to use the word “foreigns” to refer to any expensive car; they make no distinction even between mass-produced and exotic vehicles.

Theoracism
Gadot and Myson walked to the escalators at Cooney Academy. The gleaming steel and polished mahogany reminded them of what their parents had partially paid for to keep this school going. They reached the C-suite where the Board met.

The Work I don’t have to do
The alarm, blaring the song, “The Hardest Button to Button” by the White Stripes, rockets me from my slumber. I brush my teeth, wash my face and hands, go to the medicine cabinet, retrieve my prescribed drugs, and verify them with my father. Then, it’s time to attack the Peleton bicycle with all vim and vigor.

Sure, Complete, and Whole
As a warrior, can any place you rest Be your home? A rock, or sand hole, Can they suffice, lest You give up your only soul?

Holy Gold
In a corner snuggled up against the cold, I find myself with a woolen sweater. In the house it begins to hold Me in the warmth that’s better.

There
It is in that soft and wet place That life has become so real. She lights a candle to illumine my face, And it’s how I ache to feel.

Kan’, Duh
The Christian overtones make this album the splendor and grandeur that it is. Just as America is not a white nation; though people lacking melanin predominate the nation. America is not a Christian nation; despite the number of Catholics, Protestants, and Non-denominational constituents that outnumber non-believers in the United States.

Theoracism
“So the dinner was that bad?” Myson asked, a grin curling up his face. “It was weird,” Gadot said. “Say less,” Myson laughed a bit.

Stripes and Bars to Stars. Top Story - September 2021.
In the hip hop genre, rappers often describe how they’ve earned stripes, and sometimes in the next breath say they’re five star generals. This is true, but only with conditions. Someone who transitions from the enlisted ranks to becoming an officer is known as a mustang, and it takes decades for officers to achieve general status.
