You Shouldn’t Give a Fuck #3 (The Final Revelation)

(from the Book of Human Revelations)

(The Final Revelation)

You know in life….you really just shouldn’t give a fuck what others think about you. The world is filled with best friends, fuck buddies, kinda friends, familes, not-so families, frenemies, enemies, and bitches. You never can please such a diverse group of bullshit expectations. Fuck it. So, let’s be real friends and as long as we are being real friends and either growing together to be brothers or becoming confident in becoming wives. Fuck it if it doesn’t work. You tried. The first person to move on is the winner though. Then you could just make your own family that is financially supportive but not emotionally supportive. Unless, it's meant to be. But you got to wait on fucking time. And we whether be destroyed by the the bullshit expectations than wait for the patience to lighten the burdens on our souls enough to fly off the earth into the universe for a better life.

Let That Fucker Burn (John Chenvert - Napoleonville, LA)

Let that fucker burn. Let the fire crackle like the whips once did— like bone meeting leather, like screams swallowed by the trees. Let the white columns crumble to ash. Not as tragedy— but as truth, unearthing itself from beneath generations of silence. Nottoway is not a mansion. It’s a mausoleum. A lie carved in stone to honor the hands that held the whip, not the backs that bore it. They called it the “White Castle.” A place of beauty. A place for weddings, for photo ops, for pretending that horror can be made elegant if the curtains match the guilt. But no paint can cover what happened there. Blood doesn’t wash out with white linens. And pain doesn’t forget just because you renamed it history. I’m not Black. And I won’t pretend to carry that weight. But I also won’t ignore it. My people—the Guanches—were taken too. Our language silenced. Our land stolen. Our names nearly erased. So yes, I know colonization. Yes, I know what it means to be disappeared.
