Honoring Black Ancestors : Could All These Hurricanes Be The Breath of Our Ancestors?

$$RICH$$ said:
After the latest wave of Hurricanes that have hit southern lands
and the massive destruction of New Orleans taken lives of many
black people can the facts be that this is the breath of our Ancestors ????

This make me look deeper i say not for why would they return in spirit
of the winds to destroy it's own , it may sound to be real but truely a
man made mindful myth or is it that when they blow in the path of the
middle passage of slave ship sail it hit the grounds where 400 years back
the white man tamed and it aim to reveal it's great power to land of man
from the the helm of the motherland sea ???

Let's not get it twisted , but are canes the breath of our slaved tamed Ancestors !

i was thinking on this for days so i had to retrack this post and bring it back up.
good looking out, brother rich! most timely, remindful and thought provoking. yeah, using those prevailing winds/currents to get this "work force" over here could have pissed somebody off, eh?

there is only one planet and everything there is interconnected! what goes around, comes around. and how many other "ancient wisdoms" and such have come down in one form or another?

and, then, there is sek's point: just shy of one year since this was written?!! kinda spooky. or did rich just keep this post in his mind so that he could bring it up at a most opportune time to "creep us out" a bit? :lol: <cue twilight zone theme>

three days from it's one year anniversary!! just goes to show; humans do know!! great swing of that Axe!

("enslaved", ok; "tamed"?? i don't think so!! some, maybe, kinda; there're a lot that wouldn't be!! unfortunately, those prolly didn't have many descendants, tho, eh? <ugh> rats, i guess i gotta retract this statement, then, hunh? ^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H)

I must say that I respect your position here. I'm a very practical person myself. I don't believe in myths and mumbo jumbo. Which makes me have to explain how peculiar this is for me.

I had never thought of the possibility of anything like this before. As a writer I always try to be as pragmatic as possible because I want to be perceived as credible. I've written literally hundreds of poems, essays and two books to date. I have always had to craft, shape, mold and sculpt my poetry. It usually takes me days, sometimes weeks or months to complete a poem. But this "Breath of My Ancestors" was different.

A brother sent me an email with the suggestion that these hurricanes might be more than just weather phenomenon. It peaked my interest to the point where I researched and verified the specifics. After I found that all these things were true. I was absolutely flabbergasted! I could not get the idea out of my mind.

The next morning I woke up at 5:AM and the poem came out of me word for word as if I was possessed. I have not changed a syllable.

It was the weirdest experience that I can ever recall. I guess the whole point I want to impress upon you here is that of all the poems I've ever written, this is the only one that was "channeled." Yes, I said channeled cause that's the only explanation I have. I did not consciously write this piece. It just came through me.

Again, I'm not a nut...but that is just how it happened.
and by such an avenue does all "wisdom" and "knowledge" originate!! exactly that "channel"!! just straight up "out of the blue" ... or from that "Hidden Sun"!

well, adding more strangeness to the thought: how much of the Afrakan "settlement" in those regions is the result of a conscious decision by Afrakans to leave Afraka on missions of exploration, and how much is the result of escaping from a place that they may not have been meant to get to yet? are these great^nth decendents indigenous to the region? maybe it's a "message" to get up out of there/here and seek their/our own house? aside: isn't jamaica like right in the middle of this path somewhere? how much destruction and death do they suffer from this weather? (i don't follow the news, nor have i looked into the paths of this "inclement weather" enough to place it on a mental map .. or even the physical one over there.)

True... but if they were really out for vengenance they would kill the whites and then their 'children' wouldn't have to worry about relocating.

I agree it's eerie that this thread was created long before Hurricane Katrina came, but as of yet I have not seen a 'supernatural' explanation that makes sense to what seems logical. This doesn't mean that I cannot ponder the possibility of human spirits having an influence on the natural processes of earth... I just can't swallow the 'death and destruction-will-make-you-stronger-' philosophy.
 
Deepvoice that's everlasting true this why i say it's a deep mindful look
with so much corruption maybe or could it be our Ancestors coming , calling
as many from poverty this massa struggling land call A-mer-i-kan surely it
takes the pathway of the slave ships and twist rumble and roar from sea to land
but it's a myth and greater study need to make me a full believer , but hummm!
can it be the breath of our own from the past??
