It is a very rainy and wet day in seattle washington as homeless men move about slowly from their dreary sleep to line up for breakfast at the union gospel mission in downtown seattle. all around them there are signs of poverty in the midst of the city. and as one individual person moves about his mind is on taking the life of somebody. he is desperate for a hit of crack cocaine. he needs money bad to buy some crack. and as he watches the crowd. he suddenly keeps his eye on one certain individual, he has no clue as to why he picked out this person. but he will assault this person as soon as he gets the chance. there are too many witnesses at this moment. so he will wait. and wait as long as it takes. the day grows on. as as the day grows on. this person seeks out his prey. he knows where this person sleeps at night. so there maybe a chance for his scheme to work. he prowls around downtown going from day center to day center, and soup kitchen to soup kitchen. waiting for the right moment to strike. and as the day wears on. Willie Leroy Jones a known crack addict is about committ the ultimate crime. having served six years in prison for auto theft, aggrevated assault and passing bad checks, jones has a new agenda in mind. strongarm robbery, he has to get high, his crack addiction is terribly overpowering and he has to have crack. he will even kill if he has too. John Walker a former construction worker, who lost his job due to his problem with alcohol, now living on the streets of seattle. Walker now gets disability due to a permanent leg in jury he recieved when he was ran over by a fifteen passenger van three years ago. Walker lives on the streets because his disability payments will not cover the full cost of a place to live. as the day turns to late night. John Walker will not go to the shelters, because of the many problems in shelters. but he also knows the streets are no safer but he takes his chances. as he heads down a busy street. and onward to his sleeping place.
a figure follows him, but at a long distance away. as John Walker appears somewhat intoxicated he almost loses his bearings on where he is going. suddenly another person calls over to him. as the two men talk, Willie Leroy Jones watches from a distance. suddenly the two men depart their ways. and John Walker is directed to his sleeping place. as John Walker nears his sleeping place he thinks he hears someone behind him. as John Walker turns around, Willie Leroy Jones ducks out of sight. John Walker continues on. he finally reaches his spot. and beds down to sleep. Willie Leroy Jones watches with much anticipation. as John Walker finally dozes off into a deep sleep, Willie Leroy Jones slowly and quietly approaches Walker and picks up a heavy object and with all the force possible strikes John Walker to head with at least several blows, with blood splattering everywhere. Jones now knows that John Walker is dead. Willie Leroy Jones goes through John Walkers pockets and pulls out well over eight hundred dollars in cash. Jones then rifles through John Walkers billfold and throws out Id cards and other stuff. Jones settles for the cash and takes off into the night. leaving John Walkers body for the buzzards.

The dream that made me wonder
I often ask myself if the life that I am living is real. is this a dream. are the people real people. I would ponder and think of many things. where am I, I am here, and where is here. in the middle of a burning desert. or on a street corner, in a theatre watching a play. where is here. what time is it, where am now. I am here. where is here. could it be that I am asleep. but my eyes are wide open. confusing as it maybe. I am here. again where is here. in the kitchen cooking dinner. or in miami standing on the beach. yes I am here. where is here you ask. ahh" yes in alaska in the yukon. or down under in australia dancing with a boxing kangaroo. I am here. tell me where is here.
Washington DC the year 3520
I am traveling along a lonely road where only a few cars and trucks frequent and as I am listening to the radio, I become very drowsey after many hours on the road, I suddenly doze off into a deep sleep and with out notice the vehicle which I am traveling in suddenly crashes into a ravine. I lay in a prone position for several hours when there suddenly appears a few emergency units from the DC general Hospital. I am placed on a stretcher, and taken to the emergency room at DC general Hospital, I am too confused at this moment to worry about the vehicle that I was In. as the ambulance is in route. I suddenly come around in a daze I ask the EMS personnel where am I. they respond by saying washington DC. I pass out again. when I awaken I am ordered to awaken by a voice that I am not familiar with. Mr Mallory" the voice calls out. Mr Mallory' the voice calls out to me again. at this time I suddenly come out of sleepy daze. I respond by saying' yes I am August Mallory' very good sir' now that you are awake' now that I have your attention. maybe now I can get some answers. Mr Mallory you were pulled from a 2007 jeep wrangler, that vehicle has been made in the last sixty years. Mr Mallory where have you been Living? in a cave. plus there was a 2007 license plate attached to the vehicle. Mr Mallory are you aware of year this is. I respond by saying yes' it's the year 2007. and to tell me otherwise is a straightout joke, and this is some kind of a joke right Doctor, this is the year 3520 Mr Mallory. I suddenly let out a loud roar of laughter. 3520 HA, HA, HA, what are you saying? 3520 HA,HA, HA, this is the best joke that I have ever heard, Damn you Mallory, you dare laugh at me. be prepared to speak with our administrator.
later that day' I am greeted by the administrator. Hello Mr Mallory. I am Dr willkie, so tell me about your self. maybe you can tell me what's going on doctor. how is it that I am driving along a highway in the year 2007, suddenly I fall sleep behind the wheel and I wake up in the year 3520. I am not crazy. somebody is playing games with me. and I don't like it. Mr mallory, Mr Mallory, I understand how confusing it may seem to you. first you are in the year 2007 and suddenly you wake up in the the year 3520. very understandable Mr Mallory. after several days and hours I make a break for it. taking an ems as an escape vehicle. I am chased through fog and rain and the police are in pursuit of me. I lead authorities on a desperate chase through the city. I crash the ems vehicle and take off running. while on the run through busy streets and back alley ways. I am suddenly overcome with smoke ans pollution and I passout from fumes. when I awaken a DC police officer is standing over me in my vehicle. he helps me out of the jeep. I am back in the year 2007. after assuring them that all is well with me the police leave. I look around for a few moments trying to figure out if what happened did or was this only a dream.

I see you lady lorraine
I see you lady lorraine as I sell street sense on my corner, as you approach me with trustful calm. you are always smiling with a peace about you. I cannot explain it but you are always at peace with yourself. could this be that you have no fear of my situation or my condition in society. I have read your poems. i have seen your work. tell me lady lorraine where have thou gaineth such ability. as I once wrote my stories in street sense I told my life from the depths of my heart, I do thank you lady lorraine for your encouragement. for it was you who gaveth me the inner strength to continue on. at night as I went to my sleeping place I could still hear the voices and the crowds of passersby, I must reach deep down to the bottom of my soul to pull myself up from the murk and clay and claim my own personal victory"" for I rise lady lorraine, I rise, I rise to tell the world I will not be defeated, I rise to reveal muscular arms and shake them to the heavens and shout out that I will survive this day, and no one will bring me down. I see you lady lorraine I sense your confidence in me. for you I rise, I rise for you do believe in my struggle. I rise again, and again. the world knocks me down one day, but I rise again the next day, for people cannot figure out how and why I keep coming back, for I am not a quitter. and I rise. for fifty years I have continued to rise. I see you lady lorraine, you trust my faith, you trust my judgement, I see you lady lorraine and for you I rise'
The Insane Game in the political realm
In the city where politics are abound. Washington DC, is a place there is all sorts of attitudes and personalities. as one who was once involved in the homeless circle I saw many things including the insanity of so called normal people. I experienced the fear of the homeless. I saw the homeless mistreat one one another. I saw the rage and the constant hate towards one another. for the nations capitol, there are many things yet to be desired. having spent nine years in the nations capitol. I had witnessed many things. including threats made against me. this is part of the problem with mental illness of many of the homeless. many times they feel their habitat is being invaded. and so they react in a violent nature. but I have non homeless people react in a violent way on the road. road rage has been the biggest problem with people on the road in washington DC.
I often come to DC to take care of business, being the businessman that I am now. I have to deal with aloit of issues.
and it is not an easy thing to deal with when you are trying to keep peace with an extremely hostile Individual.
but in today's society everything is taken personally, attitudes are very constant amongst african americans, no matter how positive we try to be towards one another there is always that one Individual who will cop an attitude over nothing. a complete jackass I call them. at one time, there was unity within the african american community, it all fell apart when the bill of rights was signed and then the drugs started coming in to poor neighborhoods. ever since then the black community has gone straight to hell, but that's the way it is, and as this story defines the Insane game in the political realm
