Big fro, small fro
All you see is a negro
Brown skin you call black
Thickness you call fat
A tragedy waiting to happen
All dark skin men must be bad
Intelligence great with grace that outshines
But my lips are too big, my nose too brown and wide
Like weeds trying to grow through cracks
You say I don’t belong, I need to go back
But there’s no back when this is home
Tears, sweat, blood, bone
Big fro, small fro
Trying to find the will to grow
When all you see is black and you called us negro.

~ Fired ~
— Ai Intrusion ~ Are you Next ~ Is Ai Evolution after your job? — Few workplaces haven't been affected. Ai is in supermarkets, at doctors' offices, and even monitoring farms. I just can't think of anything this machine is not getting into, can you? For instance: Education ~ Law and Tech jobs will one day have a major influence or be taken over by these inanimate machines, with accuracy and vigor. From mechanics' diagnoses to a wide variety of everyday jobs, including fast food workers, with this input having the ability to cut their unnecessary work hours. I'm certain all of us have been touched by this with our short stories and colorful headings, have you? Even comments are very questionable 'Non-Robot' insertions.

Time to change your life.
Is it even possible for you to change your life? A lot of people, more than there should be, are unhappy with their lives. But what are they doing about it? Usually nothing. People talk about how shitty their lives are and want change, but are they not taking the actions to change?
