I Am Not Only A Casualty, I

What I Leave Behind Has A Life Of Its Own.

What I Most Regretted Were My Silences. Of What Had I Ever Been Afraid?

I Want To Live The Rest Of My Life, However Long Or Short, With As Much Sweetness As I Can Decently Manage, Loving All The People I Love, And Doing As Much As I Can Of The Work I Still Have To Do.

But In A Crunch, When All Our Asses Are In The Sling, It Looks Like It Is Easier To Deal With The Samenesses. When We Deal With Sameness Only, We Develop Weapons That We Use Against Each Other When The Differences Become Apparent. And We Wipe Each Other Out - Black Men And Women Can Wipe Each Other Out - Far More Effectively Than Outsiders Do.

I Am On The Cusp Of Change And The Curve Is Shifting Fast.
