The revolution will not be televised...Gil Scott Heron
Although I have a blog that was prepared to be posted today, my revolutionist ideologies will not be televised! I choose to read the blogs of every single person in my new found family to support your flow. Several new fam's posts have truly given me more appreciation of all of you.
I shudder to think what can be accomplished in the world of writing if we continue to draw inspiration from each other and support the creative flow in even this small community.
With the risk of sounding soft...I need everyone to keep up the good work so that I can draw from your strengths so that when you need it...I'm right there for you with your own reserves.
Enjoy, fam.

mark bey: I agree, their are some things I would like to do lik starting writing clubs.
If folks can record their work into an Mp3 I could post that and we could create some kind of online writers corner to support each other. Primarily short stories and essays I guess.
Anyway I thinking on it. Peace and good morning brother dc.
hey thanks ;) today is a GREAT DAY.. and like mr. mark here.. that would be great if ya'll put that together..
I mean I'm not a writer for a longshot.. *well as good asome others but I digress*.. but when I read works of others, it inspires me to pick up my pen and write in my journal :)
You too Bruh. You all up in it!
Blessings to you, DC! Bruh Heron is the man who inspired me to write waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day. That video was great, too! The animation was a nice touch.
OK, I did not know who Gil Scott-Heron was until recently. I am like why the hype. I saw him on youtube and def poetry. Maybe I have to warm up to it.
As I watched Def Poetry, I realized, I respect poets and there will be some who I will not get.
Hey y'all. thanks for stopping by. I'm out visiting all of your sites today. Reading and enjoying all of you.
I appreciate the visits and don't forget to watch SHR-Interjections before you leave the house(blog)...lol

I get him DC. I just don't feel all his poetry. Like my girl Maya Angelou. I love some of her poems, others I just sit there like what? LOL.
As a poet, I understand some will not get or like all I write. That's cool.

heyyyyy nikki...yea folks are getting together and making some noise preparing to take the literary world by storm.
Wait til the "mystery post" comes out in the next couple of weeks..everybody will know then.
"I shudder to think what can be accomplished in the world of writing if we continue to draw inspiration from each other and support the creative flow in even this small community."
you said it all right there and i'm finding that we are all slowly and surely coming together for a greater good.
this revolution, televised or not will happen.
See? And I was trying to leave my Dynasty out of it. You're not a glutton for punishment are you?
Believe it or not, I hope you all win tonight. A sweep would be bad for basketball, so tell your boy to man up...scratch that, the rest of them to man up!
lol...huh? whatcha talking about soj G?
welcome yet again blu. kick your feet up and enjoy yourself.
Nice post D!
While writing & poetry is something I do for fun & personal therapy...I draw my inspirations from poets like Heron (the brotha is deep), but there is also some serious talent right here in blog-world that I have found myself drawn to for inspiration as well.
Ya'll do that ish...I'll be right here supporting ya'll!
"At the risk of sounding soft"
??
My brother, if anything, this world needs MORE of a delicate touch in many matters.
You can sound "soft" all day long and your words will still be heavy to me.

Mannnn, Gil Scott is da TRUFF!!!! But then I've been a revolutionary since i was a young'un. LOL! That man is SOO far ahead of his time! Sadly, Shai - most people don't really get him....
Despite all that the world/media takes him thru - I LOVEEEEEEE GIL Scott Heron! Saw him LIVE several times - a true blessing! He's like JAZZ - u need to expose yourself even if u don't understand him - because they are keys to our FOUNDATION!!
