Beneath the Underdog: a modern mo better blues

By QING COLE

Ziu Davis is a painter who drives trucks and sells herb to make ends meet. Handsome and unimpressed, women find him intriguing, his gift and curse. This is the story about the path he chose and how straddling the fence too long will cause decisions to be made for you. It's about love, lust, money, family and power and where each sit on your totem pole of importance. The true essence of faith, following your heart and of course a little karma, Ziu is simply a multifaceted black man, making his way in Brooklyn. He's got Penelope, the hood's Barbie doll, as his daughter's mom with her slick ass but he holds her down for the obvious reasons. She's an aspiring dancer with Coco Chanel habits. Then, there's his ex, Zaida aka the one that got away, travelling the world with his number blocked for her own personal and obvious reasons. He's cool with her evolution and all, but she forgot to give him his heart back before she dipped. We'll just call her Moon. This story is about betrayal. What do you do when sex is being thrown at you all the fuckin time? Beautiful women. How do you measure your integrity? Clean versus dirty money or if there was even a difference between the two. I mean, is there a difference? When you had to choose between your money and your art, and with friends like Ali, Yori, and Paul who are making real money, big bank, fuck would you do? Part-time trucker, herbalist, painter and still ain't making it. Still ain't happy. Shit, this story is about God.
