What They Had Seen In That Gym
Some guys had nothing
to say after they saw her
slam on that bag hard.

Russian Hack of USA Gov't Agencies: WHAT DOES IT MEAN??!!
The discovery on Thursday (Dec.17,'20) that RUSSIA has hacked many of our Federal agencies is HUGE !!
Its a solid SIGN from God as to the time of RUSSIAN ATTACK upon the USA !!
I mean it points to the immediate future - some time within 2021 !!
I'm assuming that the Kremlin's goal was to tamper with our ability to launch our RETALIATORY nuclear arsenal (after a Russian "first strike").
If Russia hits us (our big cities), but we don't get to hit back (because our computers are sabotaged by this Russian hack of our gov't),
that means Russia does the "impossible" -...

How Blacks Played a KEY ROLE In The Abolition of Slavery
usually think it was all whites, and no blacks
(except for Union soldiers), that brought an end to slavery.
Not so. Blacks played a central role.
They did it in the person of Dred Scott.
His lawsuit went all the way to the Supreme Court.
Chief Justice Taney. totally ruled against Dred Scott having any rights whatsoever.
Taney struck down the 3 compromises that Congress had put together over the previous three decades.
Taney ruled that slaves are property, pure and simple.
And since property is legal everywhere,
owning slaves is legal...

The Bikers
She whispered that's a huge throbbing beast
yes, he replied; I call it my Harley Davidson
She smiles, can I help you polish it

Good Men Still Exist
Greatness in the form of a spiritual being
Outstanding conversation and wonderful company
Opens doors all the time
Dedicated to love and family
Making time for his lady
Exerting confidence and dominance
Never listening to nonsense
Staying focused on his dreams
Thankful for everything that comes his way
Illuminating positive vibes
Leader of the family
Lovable at all times
Extremely protective of who he loves
Xenodochial
Independent in every way
Stable enough to make sure all the bills can be paid ...

"WOMAN Is The Glory Of Man"
1st Corinthians. 11.7 says, "Woman is the glory of the Man. "
WHAT is Paul the apostle talking about??!!
Well, we know that Paul had been stoned to death in Lystra(Acts 14.19-20).
His disciples prayed over him, and he rose up.
So it was a "temporary death experience,"
now called a NDE, "near-death experience."
But if Paul was dead, "near-death" would be not good enuff !!
Anyway, Paul saw things in heaven that it wasn't lawful for him to talk about(2 Cor. 12.2-4).
Now this business about "Woman is the Glory of Man" may touch on THAT !!
Maybe in...

EXPERIENCE IS WISDOM
Surprised by my age
at 32 you know wise
with wisdom, there comes pain
still, I’m pouring out liquor for those slain
Turn your backs on those who did wrong
slamming doors in they face it ain’t right
even grown men are lost without love
doesn’t matter what he does or has done
Take a second pay attention maybe you’ll see the pain in your son
ask him questions “how’s your day” it could be as small as a quick hug
We ain’t born this way to become a monster we’re made
Like a child that’s taught hate, why push us away
so...

SENSITIVITY
he was too quiet
and prone
to tears
and his
daddy
knew what
hard truth
waited
and did
what he could
to toughen
the boy up
and
it wasn't mean
like his mama
said
but a heartfelt
kindness
as he was
only watching
out for the boy
because
a boy
has got to
shake things
off
and make things
work
and hold his own
and keep
whatever is
meek and
mild
and tender
tucked in tight
lest the world
see it
as...
and prone

He’s Fine
Distant eyes, far in thought -
Tense, awaiting echoes to form themselves into tangible feelings and words.
A face, becoming wrought
With confliction and acceptance; addiction and repulsion.
Once, twice, mouth opening; inner turmoil festering like an ugly sore.
Focused eyes, hiding thoughts -
Nonchalant, cohesive sentences charging to defence.
A face; filled with arrogance and pride, not so quiet fearlessness draping fearful eyes.
Thrice, open mouth felling questions with a smirk and simple words:
"I'm fine" ...
Tense, awaiting echoes to form themselves into tangible feelings and words.
A face, becoming wrought
With confliction and acceptance; addiction and repulsion.
Once, twice, mouth opening; inner turmoil festering like an ugly sore.
Focused eyes, hiding thoughts -
Nonchalant, cohesive sentences charging to defence.
A face; filled with arrogance and pride, not so quiet fearlessness draping fearful eyes.
Thrice, open mouth felling questions with a smirk and simple words:
"I'm fine" ...

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn (Day 6)
Where will you look to go?
What exactly will you do?
- Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn
- And I sure as hell won't go where you push me.
Seems to me that my life post-education
has mostly been
a string of un-supportive women;
oh their gender has bugger all to do with it,
Or does it?,
who just don't get me
And seem to treat me
more like a machine than man;
seeing me as simply something to fill a slot
and not caring about my feelings and dreams.
Well they can take their down-nose views
and expectations ...

LOVE
god knows
i'm tender in here
regardless of the shape
and length of my bones
despite
my fuck it
and goddamn
and how i learned to be
and walk
and talk
i am soft
inside
and delicate
and sometimes small enough
to fit in your pocket
nestled
in a bed of lint
swaddled and happy
and not pretending
though i pretend
for you
and us
and hide my tender truth
whilst i gather
our sustenance
i'm tender in here
regardless of the shape
and length of my bones
despite
my fuck it
and goddamn
and how i learned to be
and walk
and talk
i am soft
inside
and delicate

to fit in your pocket
