" Fallen Humanity / The Awakening ( * chapter 2 excerpt only pt. 2 ) "

Under the tutelage of N'aim, Drew was exposed to masses of information ranging from theological to historical even economical theories were among his many lessons. Now Drew held an un-wavering devotion to GOD and his people of African descent.
When the time had come for Drew to be transferred from maximum custody to a medium custody prison N'aim made Drew give a solemn promise that he would never give up trying to awaken his people to the harsh reality that they had not as of yet reached the mountain top. Drew made the promise whole heartedly.

" Fallen Humanity / The Awakening ( * chapter 2 excerpt only pt.1 ) "

Drew wasn't comfortable about the business deal he'd made with Whitey and it was pushing him off his square. Leaning over to open his worn leather briefcase he pulled out the manila folder given him by Whitey.
The plan seemed fool proof. No matter how many times he went over it, the plan still made logical sense. The best part of all was the fact that the only thing required of him was to be himself and speak to the masses what he himself felt was indeed true.
Drew didn't try to fool himself into believing what Whitey and Seth would be doing was right but, he consoled his nagging conscience with time tested cliche`s. At the moment, " the end justifies the means ", was holding strong against all other arguments.
Turning a couple of pages in the folder Drew closed it with a long sigh of doubt.
Looking over his desk he took a hold of his Qu`ran and placed it on top of the folder and it's dreaded plans.
Drew smiled to himself as he traced the gold lettering with his finger. Remembering as if it was yesterday when he had been given the book. He shook his head with a broad grin.
N'aim Akbar El had been Drew's un-official mentor while doing his time in prison. At twenty, Drew saw himself as a die hard thug and didn't subscribe to anything nor anyone except live fast and die hard yet N'aim had changed all of that.
It was him who opened Drews' eyes to a world in which he was still child living in a mans body and a warriors world.

A NEW ERA IN TIME

I looked deep into the futures eyes as they smiled back at me
My heart rejoiced as my mind cried out in anguish
My heart said to my mind,
" Why must you be so disturbed? Is not the very sight of the future enough to
lift any burden and destroy any yoke that you may have? "
My mind replied through clenched teeth and suppressed rage
" If the future knows nothing of the past and can not see the REALITIES of
the present then they ( the future ) are nothing more than wasted time. "
