    Well eva since i was of voting age and recieved ma lil american flag w/ waraaq that said i was a citizen i've been voting (datz once..lol)

    p.s Fully aware of the constraint wit sharciga n' citizenship n' all dat otha good stuff..but this question is addressed to the voting population amongst us in the U.S. of A...

    Surely nothing short of delightful....I'm not finished but i know this books keeps getting better and better especially for those who have lived away from home for some time...

     

    AnyHow if u did not know....the novelist himself is visiting the Twin Cities for a short time!....he'll be reading from his new novel Links at the places indicated below...(attached is a lil intro provided by Charlie Sugnet of the English Department at the University of Minnesota-TC)

    HOpe to see u all there... smile.gif

     

     

    Somali novelist Nuruddin Farah will be in the Twin Cities on April 20 and 21 to read from his newly published novel, LINKS. The novel is narrated by a Somali who has been living in New York and returns to Mogadishu not long after the "Black Hawk Down" incident to pay respects at his mother's grave, and to to help find a charismatic young girl who has been kidnapped. LINKS has all the page-turning interest of previous Farah political thrillers such as his SWEET AND SOUR MILK, and has much of current relevance to tell us about how it feels to be occupied by American troops. Farah was awarded the prestigious Neustadt Prize in 1998 for his first trilogy of novels on dictatorship andfor the second trilogy called "Blood in the Sun" (including MAPS, in my opinion one of the two or three best African novels ever). He has also published a nonfiction book on the Somali diaspora, YESTERDAY . . . .TOMORROW.

     

    Dates and times of his appearances are pasted below.

    my eyes were teary for a moment in time

    i'm looking at my sisters and brothers on the front lines

    bones showing from no food on their chest

    eyes weary from endless worries n' no rest

    they lyin' on the streets wit no one to protest

    no one to attest

    i ask My Savior Allah is this a test?

    How do we pass tho?

    How do we get an A+ and make it a past ago?

    It Seems so

    We all driving cars wit bad gas (mentality)to go

    We all lay low

    Got thingz to do

    n' Gotta make dat Doe..

    Gotta become Millionaires n' not on da ABC show

    When they ask me "where r u from?

    the thought of my lawless, rubbish land, hits me like a low blow

    I wanna let them know

    but not before

    i say "neva been there before"

    "or maybe since a long time ago"

     

    the shame i hide

    tears me from the inside out

    So i throw aside

    sweep it unda carpet

    n' neva let it reside

    in my mind

    cuz i know

    it'd hurt me inside

    if not dampen my pride

    no choice

    but to become like Jekyl n' Hide

    constantly flip-Floppin between personalities

    neva let'em collide

    So I let otha folkz worry about Somalia....

     

    We all blind-folded when it comes to Somalia

    a lost cause when it comes to Somalia

    Savages at it again when it comes to Somalia

    Human rights at its worst when it comes to Somalia

    Qabiil is AIDS when it comes to Somalia

    eva felt like u were no one

    eva felt like u were the millionth one

    to walk this earth, and unda sun

    not knowing where ur headed or were u've begun

    wat makes u different

    and makes u unique

    is the souls u meet

    and knowledge u seek

    wat if u don't meet

    wat if u can't seek

    wat if ur kept in a container

    n' not allowed to leak

    wat if u can't speak

    wat kinda life would dat be

    u fake all the time

    pleasin every kind

    when in the inside

    u really dyin'

    ignorin' denyin'

    till u fall apart

    pieces are scattered

    ur soul n' heart

    the pieces that matter

    who'll find it

    who'll pick'em up

    who'll put'em togetha

    or mess'em up

    ladies we set it up

    fellas don't F'it up

    feelings u protray

    y couldn't u delay

    did it had to be today

    on Valentinez Day~

    Well, honestly itz one thing to say wat seems rite n' wat society deems to be the rite response to these typa questionz..BUT...imma do wat bro Darman asked of all of us to do n' dat is to be "real"

     

    Now, truthfully, looks 4 me..personally.... do matter...n' this isn't somethin' i always knew about ma self...no!..unfortunately it took a couple of broken hearts (includin' mine..gotta be real)to learn dat about my self....

    n' when i say looks do matter ...don't all label me shallow...cuz otha thangz that were said above do also matta 4 me ( i.e personality)

    itz just that i don't think dat uh...one should mask his/her feelingz or even ignore the way they really feel about dat individualin order to hold truth to the old sayin' "Itz watz on the inside dat counts"...
