No Time

Before he heads to the bus station to build and trap flies, my man D (Darius) drops a jewl that makes me laugh because its so true. We were snatching from the ethers downtown when a cat fresh out of jail comes to cry on our shoulders, well not on our shoulders but he did shed some real tears. He loves his woman and she loves him, but she is bi-polar and has a cyst on the brain and has had him on a roller coaster ride for the last year of the three they've been together. In jail and out of jail and back to jail again always because of her drama he says. Fucked up a job paying 1200 a week. Supporting her various habits through petty crime. Beating up men that she sends mixed signals to. Taking beatings from men she sends mixed signals to. "I just don't know what to do", he says. D just shrugs and says"leave the bitch". There's a big ass asteroid headed this way right now and aint no time for the bullshit."


Truer words have seldom been spoken. There is a big asteroid headed this way and if something doesn't happen, then we're all fittin to see whose been right or wrong. Streets made of gold, crystal cities, valhalla and endless war 70 veiled virgins and a case of viagra. whatever your idea of the afterlife is. I imagine that if one polled the nation you would see very few responses along the lines of "Oh yeah, I'm definitely going to the lake of fire" or "I'm pretty sure it's gonna be hell". No one really believes that because that would ruin the whole purpose of the threat of everlasting punishment. Hell would not be Hell if it was your destination. There is something wrong with a scenario in which a true believer sees hell coming. There are too many ways to get out of it. Too many last minute confessions of faith. Deathbed conversions .Last rites etc... Always an out. Always a trap door to escape the clutches of Justice.


If you are a true believer in a living God ( and I don't mean a regular church/temple/masjid attendee), then you have to believe that there is a payoff for not killing the lady in front of you at Harveys that brings 12 items to the 10 item express line or stealing for the helluvit, sleeping with your brothers wife etc... Why fight the instinct without the reward? Deeper Still, the payoff should be greater than pleasure/relief obtained from staying one's hand from sin. Otherwise "mere anarchy is loosed upon the world".


No Time is closing in on us. 2000 years ago John relayed the words of the Ancient of Days and they were "Surely I come quickly". Is he riding the Asteroid?
