Round and round he walked, and so learned a very valuable thing: that no emotion is the final one.”

Stands upright,
Caught for an instant
In the pitching chime
Of dead day,
The hush cries, freedom!

Of tomorrow's potential.

When time is still,
A shrill gasp of passion unspent,
A sour taste
Of bent magic
In a god's tragic
World.”

Yet when I think back to this time, I remember very little. Perhaps this is the mind's way of protecting us from events that are so devastating we would otherwise lose all reason. The same way a lizard, if its body is threatened, will drop its tail, providing a distraction to the predator in order with its life. And grief, for anyone who has ever experienced it, is exactly like a predator. It steals first your happiness, and then- if you allow it everything else.”

“The migrant chain that connected Africa to America was seemingly endless, however, and its length was due primarily to the market. Africans made to ‘buy more’ Africans were thus compelled to be the agents of their own exploitation by an economic system that consumed the very lives of slaves. At stake for Africans was whether an American generation of African lineage would emerge and, more important still, also whether that generation could sustain itself by the fruit of its social networks, rather than by its labor, as bought and sold on the market.”
