Are You a Nine to Five Citizen?
The world is set up to have you working like a slave under companies as a nine to five citizen living check to check…However you still wonder why you are not getting anywhere in life still struggling and afraid to live out your dreams.. All these nine to five citizens are helping someone else live out their dream, (the company) you are working for is someone else’s dream and you are helping them stay financially stable. Life is meant for you to enjoy it and live happy, you only get one. So many people are settling and working to die, how about we live to die. Sacrifices have to be made to complete you and what you want to do. We are so brainwashed, working a nine to five to only live in an apartment paying 695 to 1500 for something that would never be our own. What we should be doing as the Chinese do is live in a hut together save our money to contribute to our business and pay for a house in full. Brainwashed by materialistic items, working to have 200 dollar jeans and 400 dollars weaves which is all cool to do but not when it’s controlling you. You’re not enjoying life to the fullest. Patience is a virtue, work on your venue your business and save all that money and you can have your start up money for a business or hell the whole thing but we are so blinded by the materialistic items that we don’t even notice we are settling and will always be a nine to five citizen. Beyoncé and Jay-z would not be rich if we were not using our hard earned money to support them, not hating but just think about it. Be smart, if you are going to work a nine to five save your money and don’t live within your means and the money you save could be put towards your dream, don’t be a nine to five citizen all your life. We are so afraid to be seen in Wal-Mart clothes and payless shoes we are stunting our own wealth and happiness, it has taken over our minds Wear the Wal-Mart clothing to help you save your money until you have attained the wealth to spend on those items. We might not be in chains anymore but we still are slaves to Society and in the mind. This book, this chain we are following not working together as one, under someone else’s finances, ha it’s amazing how we have been brainwashed and working a nine to five, paying for college to still work a nine to five, funny. Do you ever notice that most successful people or rich people never obtained a college degree but still made it and their dreams came true because they were aware of how life works? Hell some people reading this still won’t get it. What I’m trying to say is if you gone work a 9 to five use it your advantage to make your dream come true, don’t get a car note and an a really nice apartment, that’s the point to make you settle and become dependent on that nine to five. Also if you gone go to College go to College for something that’s toward your dream for example if you want to own your own business don’t go to school to be a nurse go to school to study business duh. Basically be patient don’t rush and think everything out before going to school and  Just please don’t be a nine to five citizen because I know I am not.

Images of u move across my mind
Like Ko thi dancers
Boldly elegant 
Much like the mahogany of ur eyes 
They send me into Juvenal pirouettes
Til I fall
Dizzy
Giggling
Free in the space mere thoughts of u provide
I spread my arms wide
Awaiting ur embrace
No matter how long it takes
For the melting of our sensibilities is timeless
The swaying of our hips together is a melody
In rhyming
We are the kick, ball, chain, step
Tap, tap, tapping away
As you partner with my heart
U surround me
So complete
I need nothing more than to
Open my heart
Soul
Eyes
And see the image of
U
To know
This…
This
Is
The dance of
Love
End Point

"The Fall" by: Nubian Star

The Fall
I usta be able to 
Pull it out 
on
Demand
But now
Now
I wait
Like an addict
Sick for my next hit of
Ink
Words
Stanzas 
Carefully places thoughts
Yes
I miss it 
Like clean air
Or grandma grown veggies
Homemade marmalade 
I miss seeing a poem in
EVERYTHING
Every thing I could imagine
Came thru my hands
Etched out the tips of my
Fingertips
Drip from the ball of my pen
Creating masterpieces placed 
Lovingly together by
Emotional structures
Standing on the accent of each stroke
Every BOLD crooked 
Printed cursive line
I’ve never written symphonies
But thru my pen
I have conducted 
The opera of life thru
Words
Played the sweetest harmonies 
That dance in front of your eyes 
My every experience 
Was held 
Majestically 
Between the spaces of 
Each
Word
My triumphs
Myself induced 
Defeats
My struggles
My ambitions 
Dreams
All stored 
Between the spaces
& The many pages
of countless
Notebooks
Journals
Napkins
Menus
Flyers
Scrolls
Parchment 
It was my religion
& I was the most devote 
Believer
Worshipping
Words
Holy scriptures 
Gifted to me by the Most High
Anointed Scribe
But I forsaken it
Took the blessings for granted
Selfishly
Pridefully
Sinfully
I fell
Broke my quill
Could no longer spill
Ink
On gilded pages
No longer serve
In the army of 
Writing soldiers 
Give away my mojo
For vanity
And now I suffer
Fiend
For words that once wore my
exclusively
Want the words to 
Love 
Me
Again
End Point
