The Late John Challis
John Challis became a famous British actor and that's what he deserved.
He starred as Captain Peacock in the reboot of "Are You Being Served?"
It's sad to have to tell people that John has passed away.
He guest-starred in "Open All Hours" and "Play For Today".
He starred as an evil man named Scorby in an episode of "Doctor Who".
The title of that episode that John starred in is "The Seeds of Doom".
He guest-starred in anepisode of "Heartbeat".
He starred in "Only Fools and Horses" and "Coronation Street".

Independent Hastings
Beach residents of a different ilk
The council once tried to milk
To fill their coffers, and fill their bag
In protest the residents, hoisted the American flag
The council now, were somewhat irate
As the beach was now, an American state
The beach party revolted, against their persecution
In 1822, began their American revolution
The floundered galleons, were now upside down
Forming a part, of the America Ground
As the flag flew high, the banners' star spangle
It's shadow now cast, over the Trinity Triangle

Norm
A man has lost his life nearly 62 years after he was born.
We've lost an actor and comedian and his name was Norm.
I'm sorry to have to inform people that Norm MacDonald has passed away.
He died on September the 14th, he left this earth yesterday.
He starred in movies and was a cast member of "Saturday Night Live".
He was diagnosed with cancer nine years ago and he couldn't survive.
He was also a writer who wrote for the sitcom "Roseanne".
Millions will mourn the death of this very talented man.

Cowardly Terrorists
Cowardly terrorists caused many people a great deal of sorrow.
On September 11, 2001, 2,996 people would have no tomorrow.
Many people died because a few planes were hijacked.
Almost 3,000 people died and they won't be coming back.
At those innocent people's funerals, Many people showed respect by sending flowers.
All because those terrorists caused those planes to crash into the World Trade Towers.
Twenty years ago today, many had good reason to be afraid.
Time sure does fly, it doesn't seem like it has been two decades.

I lost
I often feel as if I am trying to remake the relationships I've lost.
I'm so desperate for the feeling of comfort provided by a world unchanging.
But my world has changed. The world often does that. Now that I am left alone and craving something to fill the lonely cavern inside, I rush to make friends. I push too fast, and when they don't react the way I decided, I pull so far away that I can't even remember their names. I crave the past, but the past can't be replicated. I often find myself daydreaming, wondering what these past years would've been like if I hadn't moved. If I was...

She thought that smoking
would make her look cool but that
was before she got cancer.

What The Month Of September Means
For
some of
us, the month
of September means raking
up the already fallen leaves.

Sometimes the sky
From perimeter fog where hills
wear their torc ornaments tightly swiftly woven
around the neck
my metal is gold
bronze
an ancient example
I have worn the face of many
ashen acrylics on skin
how does an eagle
deal with a Raven ?
How does starlight
deal with knowledge
of within
As it shines copper cobweb
Raphaelic angelic fine tapestry
red flowing river
my crown of scarlet hair
You who have come
to find the artistry
of freedom

Dear Old Black Man
Dear Old Black Man at what point will you admit where you have failed?
Where we all have failed to achieve the goals of our rememberable past.
These accomplishments that you hold so dear to your heart.
That dwells beneath the melanin that is protecting the legacy that you speak so highly of.
At what point do we bring up the abandonment?
The insecurities that has now plagued us, the disconnection of what once was then…that has now became our own demise now?
Where did you go?
At what point did you think that it was okay to walk away and return without...

Why I Thank God For Every Meal
I thank God for each and every meal that I eat. Before the year 2015, I never once thanked The Lord for a meal. But when I saw a man thanking God for his meals, I decided to start doing it as well. I have two important reasons why I thank God for every meal.
One, when God created people, he had to make us eat. That was the only way that it could work. We must eat in order to survive. But God didn't have to give us taste buds. He could've made us eat just for the sake of survival. God could've made it so that we can't taste. But he wanted eating to be a pleasurable experience. It...
