"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...

a Prophets Lament
A bat of an eyelid
A drop of a hat
Mankinds existence
Has been relatively brief
Mankinds influence
Has been beyond belief
And brought much grief
Mere ripples in the seas of time
How come then, so sublime?
This new millennium beckons
With futuristic contemplations
Of mass poverty, and starvation
Nuclear war, and over populations
Reality looks grim
Mankinds chance now look slim
But what hope, or chance?
Evergreen possibilities
With limited perception
As nightmares become a reality
There is little...
A drop of a hat
Mankinds existence
Has been relatively brief
Mankinds influence
Has been beyond belief
And brought much grief
Mere ripples in the seas of time
How come then, so sublime?
This new millennium beckons
With futuristic contemplations
Of mass poverty, and starvation
Nuclear war, and over populations
Reality looks grim
Mankinds chance now look slim
But what hope, or chance?
Evergreen possibilities
With limited perception
As nightmares become a reality
There is little...

ManIQ Woman
A scientist, in future years to come
Invents a pill, for one's intelligence to enhance
A pill of many powers, sold at a pricey sum
To those of lesser intelligence, willing to take a chance
The first to take this pill
To improve his IQ fast
Leaves happily, after paying his bill
Now twice as clever at last!
The next client, makes his way in
Wishing to improve his IQ by ten
The scientist states it is no problem, nor a sin
Simply pop the pill into your mouth, and you'll be the brainiest of men!
Shortly, a third man...

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...

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 how i learned to be

Hands
Hands
Five fingers
A palm
A story
Hands... they touch, they feel.
To me they have sex appeal.
First connections.
Lasting impressions.
Fulfilling sensations.
Multiple uses,
No excuses
Purposefully Executes it.
Full of nerves,
Ready to receive and deliver.
Thoughtfully pressing
Softly at first,
Unless told otherwise.
Attractive in the simplest form.
Tangle-able beauty.
Feminine or manly,
Give them to me candidly. ...

man-dingo
a raw treatise to masculinity
woman thing
ribbed from man
not without tears
not without fears
not without being vexed
not without being sexed
not without weakness
not without strength
not without transgression
not without remission
not without death
not without life
not without his X
ever asking Y
