Aight, written by a Palestinian brother and read by an Iranian sister-:


Opportunity came to him not once but twice.
"It was not meant to be", he said, "but it would have been nice."
"I'm sure there'll be other chances that'll similarly entice...
me to get up from my chair and make that first move.
I got lots to do you see and much to prove-
but they're racist, they hate minorities, and I have beliefs in which they disapprove."

He had become so good at conspiracy theories and playing the blame game that he forgot to do his best , do the same thing, board the same train
that others got on to get to success lane.
While others were wild for knowledge out there, he had become tame.
While their moons waxed, his had begun to wane.
But what can he rightfully curse for this situation but to curse his own name?

When he was young he had an excuse for everything.
Why he was there when he shouldn't be or not there when he shoulda been. So he was born, lived, and died without anything.

And I don't discuss this as an Arab or a Muslim
but as a human being who notices things.
So I admonish myself like I admonish you-
you can't rely on others to invent what you need to make do.
We forgot that our job is not just to be consumers...
We need to produce things too.

We make a lot of these but we are too shy to put them out there for public viewing. Our friends just convinced us to get feedback.
