Pastrami and Why?

SUBWAY EAT FRESH!!!!!!

    Have you ever watched that subway commercial where the guys are working at the factory and fighting over the sandwich, and in the end the guy that wasn't fighting wound up with the sandwich? I'm sure the first time you watched it, you probably thought to yourself: 

"This commercial is funny"

or

"Oh, just another stupid commercial"

or

"Man, I'm hungry now"

I have had those thoughts as well, for many different commercials. But on my second time watching it when I actually paid attention to it, I noticed something unsettling. There was a clear racial scenario going on in the commercial. Almost as if Subway was predicting our near future.

Do you notice that during most of the commercial a black and white man were fighting each other for the sandwich, I mean they were going at. completely ignoring the work that they were supposed to be doing, and instead fighting over something so minuscule. Then at the end of the commercial some other guy gets the sub and he was busy working the whole time, it just fell into his lap. Now this man was of a different ethnicity, and not to be offensive or anything but to me he looked Hispanic.... 

Now take the time and ask yourself.. What exactly is this commercial trying to say. It could just be an honest commercial talking about how good the new pastrami sub is. 

OR!!!!.......

Maybe they are talking about the fight between the Black and White race, over things that in my opinion should be settled by now, but all the time they are fighting, the other minorities are busy reaping the rewards. 

There are plenty of other ways you can spin this commercial. That's just one of my ideas lol. I could be over thinking it but I like debating.

So if you have any questions comments or concerns, feel free to voice them!!!

Here is the link to see the commercial if you haven't already.

Good Vibes

Put the tape in.
We lay back.
Listen to the smooth tracks.
A young cat.

Bang, Bang,
Tap, Tap

We lay back. 
Relax....

He's like my fall breeze.
The type of weather for,
Infinity scarves and long sleeves.
Red, Yellow, and Orange leaves.

I listen as the song plays.
Dreaming of better days.
But with him that's all the time.

He speaks to my soul.
I close my eyes.
Lay back.
Let go.

I lose my self in him...

Time stops in his presence.
I am whole again.

Then...

The Tape Ends...

Untapped potential

I've known this girl for a while and I must say she is only getting better as an artist. Be on the look out for her work. Not only does she draw, but she is also an amazing poet. Be on the look out.

The Glass Window Affect

It was new for him and I
Or me and him?
Whatever, it doesn't matter how you say it
I mean its no big deal really.
Worrying about those little things
Always seemed so silly.

Crack*


Like I remember one time

I got mad when he told me to shut up,
So he bought me a teddy bear, gave me a kiss, and hug
So naturally I forgave him
I mean who wouldn't?
Plus he said he wouldn't do it again
I believed him,
I loved him.
He said he wouldn't do it again.
He promised...

Crack* Crack*


I should have probably walked away

I shouldn't stay.
I fell asleep one night
Missed his call
It was all innocent I promise!
I was just so tired from school and work
So I thought I'd make it up to him
He always liked it when I got cute
I went over to his place,
Opened the door , and fell straight to the floor
I forgave him
Plus!!!
Gurrrrrlllllllll!!!! He put a ring on it
Talk about the best apology of the year
I mean I do love him
I shouldn't have fallen asleep any way
It's no big deal, I bruise easily
Plus he promised he wouldn't do it again..
He promised...

Crack* Crack* Crack*


I was expecting his child..

My child
My joy
My hope
My new love
My new light
I was expecting...
I did all the right things
Read all the books
But one bad day for him was all that it took
Now  there's no more expectation
I'm left in the dark
There was no where to go
He promised...

Crack* Crack* Crack* Crack* Crack* Crack* Crack*


Go in to the bathroom

(I should have saw the signs)

Crack*


Lock the door

(I should have saw the signs)

Crack*


Turn the shower on

(I should have saw the signs)

Crack*


Fall to the floor

(I should have saw the signs)

Crack*


Bath is full, I slide in

No where to go...
(Too little to late, lost hope)

I will see my light on the other side

My last breath..
Goodbye

Shatter*
