time soul speaks: when writing poetry and having people give it recognition, emceeing, singing, and watching vh1 soul and they play like 6 of my favorite videos in a row =)... discovering a dope new artist that hasn't been aired all over the wack ass radio (recently: vivian green/heather headly/k-o6).. when i met talib and he was the most down to earth person in the world (he's a libbra heheh) when someone/something inspires me... deejayiing....breakdancing...the cat with the dreds ripping the drums passionately engaged in his art....dred locks and blowouts...watching jill scott perform from front row...huggies....snapping a shot of musiq singing the song "love" with his hands stretched out...when someone understands me... intertwined with intimacy...feelin beautiful and feminine in a bath...talkin bout the Illiminati and the new world order(conspiracy theory YAH!)...seeing common sense teach cats at his concert to love themselves...

"Claimin' omnipotent positions, makes me question individual meridians.. what lingers inside simplified minds? Why does confidence lose sight and take flight to designate towards heavenly heights, my fingertips liquify the surface... ripplin' through my personal deviated splurges, ways of certian wordin'.. befriending amongst the cushion that supports the curves, bending..
I am ashamed on the ways i glance towards the skies to shape my imaginary only to escape, in search for sheer enamels that coat me, invisible.. yet protectin' the openings.. envisionin' fate.. i faint... in a twisted...spiraled... casted slow motion dreams of pastures green penetrate my flesh sensating burning coals, within the folds,,, unexpressed.. im froze in corrosion... flowing amoungst the rest.. lightlessness resting in the mesh.. breaths are gasps from past carry along.. remained was the same position.. i am posing for catalogs"

Poetic Pseudonymn: Sadiq Ali
Favorite new nickname: Sideshow Bob (Given to me by my girlfriend. Don't ask.)
Orgin: Chicago, IL
Current Residence: Bellevue, WA (East of Seattle)

I've been writing poems and short stories ever since I was a Senior in high school, 12-13 years ago. I initially started writing to impress my 1st girlfriend. I wrote loveletters to compensate for my shyness and struggle to communicate verbally.

I've never published anything or participated in any spoken word contests because I never thought that I was good enough. I grew up idolizing MC's like A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, and Gang Star, but I never realisticly thought I could wreck a mic, so I never even tried out of fear of embarassing myself. I use to destroy my work 5 minutes after writing it.

I've been posting on OkayPlayer for almost 4 months. I'm always impressed by the level of talent on this site.

I would visit OKP from time to time but didn't join until September of last year. Even then I would lurk around but didn't start posting on the freestyle board until January of this year. I don't really post that much but trust that I read a lot of the joints on here. Which reminds me, much thanks to delrica for her poetry lessons. I'm loving the triolet. I hold OKP close to the heart because I've learned some valuable lessons here ranging from "how to write" to "how to love". Ain't that right Lik? (Kisses him softly on the cheek) Most see this as just a board but I get more out of it. Ya'll are appreciated to the fullest. Even you Nick, with your stanking ass. (LOL!)

My real name is Moshe Gidon ben Yaakov Isser. I go by the emcee name of Jumanji, alias Mo Sense. I came to OKP shortly after 9/11 with the login moshe. I remember because I first started posting in Activist. Eventually I decided to start posting in Freestyle and I was kinda wack (lol). But with the positive input of people like syllabicdivinity and alexathens I improved a lot. Since then I've been inspired a lot by cats like scroofays, Lucky187, Axis, BarTek, Witching Hours Noon, gsquared, hunuh, blakyukon, and everyone else who I've bigged up over the years.

sometimes men of color disappear into the beauty of the light, especially toward day's end. it's like the clouds tak on color & get down on the ground & talk to you, or the stars jump in some black man's body & shine all over you.

born and bred in south bend, IN....living under the shadow of the golden dome

i don't post very often anymore due to lack of time.....these past five months have been a big change in life. I'm the primary caretaker of my mother who recently suffered from a brain aneurysm, working nights as a bartender, fulltime college student by day, and trying to maintain some semblence of a social life.

this board has always shown me love and several people here have been amazingly supportive during my mother's situation. make friends here people, those people who are just words on a screen to you, are mostly very cool peeps....get to know them!

I first posted here in 2000 and, continued for a little time then... Well I'd come check the posts on occasion but I didn't post until 4/22, when I found out Nina Simone Passed, just to show a little appreciation.

Didn't have much to offer for a while but, things change...

Keep inspiring!

One Love.

"Thanks to Bush & Co., America is hated the world over as never before. Deficits are exploding, unemployment remains high, the stock market is still in the tank and interest rates are poised to take off. The country is headed to hell in a handbasket from so many directions one can barely keep track. And yet the increasingly Foxified media tell a story only of heroism: of the US military, of the American people and of the President of the United States, who has so far managed to avoid service to either one." ~Eric Alterman
