racism
Racism
Two men broke into a shop, one is white, the other is African, as we cannot say black because that is a racist slur
The pair was caught and sent before a magistrate. The white guy was sentenced to two years in jail. Being white, he was seen as privileged, although he was a poor working-class
The man referred to as an African got a lighter sentence mainly because he came from people who had suffered at the hands of whites. Those who administer the law failed to see how deeply racist they are against the black population

Do you believe in your faith
For sure in this life we all will go through somethings, that will be out of our own control, but it doesn't mean that, you give up on hope and stop ignoring the power of prayers. For sure it might be a crippling disease like cancer, or it maybe a broken heart filled with hurt and pain, or it could be a illness that affects you mentally and emotionally and physically. For it could be tears for a love one that have gone away. But regardless what ever you do don't stop believing in your faith and beliefs, for sure he will never leave you nor forsake you, as you are one of GOD ALMIGHTY CHILDREN....

the class thing
The class thing
I’m working class from the very beginning, my mother worked in a fish factory putting sardines
In the meantime, she went to work before me. My breakfast was standing in the kitchen, eating a slice of bread with margarine. if the school served breakfast, I ate there
I noticed early in life that those who spoke with educated voices got better treatment than we who spoke the street parlance
I tried to speak as the educated did, which made me tongue-tied and deeply shy, but it helped me to get an education of sorts
It was only after stumbling,...

Cyber truck
Cyber Truck
The tariff, we should not take it too seriously, it can be negotiated and reduced
Trump likes to make deals, so give him an offer and see how it pans out
Rember this in four years, a new administration
Might think of it as a bad idea and scrap it
The cyber truck is a failure, because it is not a truck the way we think a car should look. Nevertheless, I accept one even if damaged by fingermarks or scraped by idiotic left-wing housewives who are possibly sexually frustrated
Because, I think that the truck can be driven as
a normal car by...

narcissism and tariffs
Narcissism and Tariffs
On the TV, we see the chief narcissist in full flow, the showman of the year. Since I know very little about the economy, I shall refrain from making comments about tariffs, only a system of long-distance boxing. I know of words like solar plexus and upper cut, and not to hit below the belt, but also not to wear the belt too high over the navel; therefore, hitting the penguins on the Norfolk Islands with a hefty tariff is unlawful and below the belt, round one goes to the birds Likewise, as Joe Rogan says, sending a tattoo artist to a notorious jail abroad...

Super Man's Last Flight
The B-24s, the Liberators,
The Second World War’s incinerators,
They dropped bombs all over the Pacific,
They were key to winning the war,
Legendary amid the corps,
They created a hell on earth that was horrific.
But the service men called them “flying coffins”,
Odds of surviving these missions weren’t too great,
And of all the glories of the men who told their stories,
This is the account of Super Man’s crew and their fate…
Phil and Cuppernell piloted the plane,
Lambert in the tail, Nelson along for the ride,...

equines
Equines
One really ought to start with the beginning, only it goes so long back
That it is impossible to remember.
I remember being born, but that was just an interlude, cold and
Unpleasant and being kissed by strangers.
I like horses, but that has nothing to do with my inception.
But then, was anyone ever born,
we are just a part of a bigger
A broader picture where we but an unconscious number
But I do like horses and would have loved galloping across some
Grassland and jumping over brooks.
And now we have emboli fever, which is either...

Lasso the Sun
The rider rides
With rage and passion in his heart
Over golden hills and across the plains
Across the great breath of land
Through realms and domains
Ready
To capture the sun
His untamed spirit and will
Has no time for menial things
There is a flame to catch and a force wield
As he gallops into the distance
Willing to conquer the day
Ready
To seize the sun
He chases the fire in the sky
Without wings or propellors he flies
Hi horse racing against time
Leaving a plume of smoke and dust...
With rage and passion in his heart
Over golden hills and across the plains
Across the great breath of land
Through realms and domains
Ready
To capture the sun
His untamed spirit and will
Has no time for menial things
There is a flame to catch and a force wield
As he gallops into the distance
Willing to conquer the day
Ready
To seize the sun
He chases the fire in the sky
Without wings or propellors he flies
Hi horse racing against time
Leaving a plume of smoke and dust...

the women i our life
Women I our life
n the line
The cashier talks to another woman
They are both about forty
The age when women are the
Most handsome
And they know
So much more than before
cashier gets up and embrace
Embrace the other woman
I notice she has a nice bum
Turning her attention to me
I have wine and cheese
That is quickly done
I pay and see her eyes
She has a beautiful smile
I briefly fall in love
Women of forty are so beautiful
And old enough
To know that sex is more
So much more than ...

Cruelty is your middle name
Most people duck reality. Reality is a river with a fierce current. You can try & resist but the current won’t stop. It moves faster & stronger then you ever will. People give in. People have to many vices that blur their vision. Most people accept what it is and never go against the mainstream. Swim up the mainstream, go against what is the norm and what is being force fed to you. Living life this way takes perseverance and determination.
Society, civilization, language, just living day by day, people are tired. They don’t have the strength to make change. This is why so...
