    "A Thousand AND ONE Faces!"

    iAm,

    The government AIDS, belligerence in the blood of a slave,
    The child in Haiti that could only watch while others were saved -
    from the rubble then cradled, cuddled and praised
    ...The guttural quake havin' devoured all that stood in its way.
    I'm the dream that crumbled away along with the place,
    She rhapsodicly called home before its summit was razed...
    The punishin' gaze of the sun that broke the camel's back,
    Lifeless hand of Charles de Menezes as it holds his haversack.
    The lowly camera flash blamed when Diana was murdered.
    Change of name to Windsor at unrest the Royal Family was German...
    I planned the diversion, I'm the bullet the force and the gun
    The outpouring of blood that deprived Afeni Shakur of her son.
    The warden in Scum...
    As brutalised by the system inside as the prisoners.
    The attempts to silence his wisdom and Litvinenko's defiant resilience...
    those who die of attrition, the west's reluctance to stop 'em from starvin'
    - Both Robert Mugabe and every last one of his army.
    I'm the shot of Bacardi that pushed Andrew Curwell over the edge,
    The scalpel probin' the death of Heath Ledger before his global success...
    I'm opium fresh from the poppy fields of Afghanistan,
    And those who made heroes of the Mujahiddin, now fearing the Taliban -
    concealed within Pakistani borders plotting at will...
    The corpse of Madeline McCann rotting in filth on top of a hill.
    The hospital bill to fight superbugs their cleaners created,
    syringe that gleamed with the painless resolve Harold Shipman metered to patients.
    I'm the Indonesian faces the tsunami had wiped out,
    A thousand eyes blinking in unison ..
    and I'm watching you right now.

    --------

    very political, great vocab, deep and touching rhymes. Fantastic stuff. Keep it up. Be proud of your talent, cos it's for real. And you touch on a lot of subjects, plus you keep the flow in check.

    This was sick. I love the usage of your multi's as well as the content & concept. Your imagery & vocab was flawless also. You did your thing on this piece, very raw. Keep dropping the heat fam.

    I planned the diversion, I'm the bullet the force and the gun
    The outpouring of blood that deprived Afeni Shakur of her son.
    The warden in Scum...
    As brutalised by the system inside as the prisoners.
    The attempts to silence his wisdom and Litvinenko's defiant resilience...
    Raw.

    Re: "A Thousand AND ONE Faces!"

    My favorite aspect, and the best in my opinion, is the knowledge that this piece just displays. All of those historical events are really... historical, but you can easily relate to 'em if you know what it's talking about.

    Now, that's a hell of a way to start this off. I felt the last line would be better without the "havin'", but to each his own.

    Have your ears ever turned red because you've seen or heard or tasted something incredible? Yeah, mine turned red when I read the last bar. Crazy stuff.
