Love Finds a Way
When Valerie and I became smitten with each other, we were sitting at the school cafeteria table. I was eating the soy burgers she always called paste.
She said, “Are you a vegetarian?”
I said, ‘Yea’”
Valerie’s follow up floored me. “You know, soy impairs a man’s yang functioning thereby decreasing his sperm count and making him unable to give a girl a baby.”
“Is this typical high school lunchroom chat?”
Valerie replied, “We’re both eighteen and adults. I can tell you if I were your wife I wouldn’t fix those funky veggie...

To the Mothers
As apparent
As a parent
I cannot imagine the pain
Or the agony and despair a woman feels
I cannot think of the torment
A mother experiences
When her child is suddenly taken away
This is for those who have loved
From conception to birth
From early years into adolescence
Shaping and molding a young mind
A mother makes so many sacrifices
Raising her children
All the while society can be cruel
The world may portray an adult
As something else
But through the eyes of a mother -
A mother...
As a parent
I cannot imagine the pain
Or the agony and despair a woman feels
I cannot think of the torment

When her child is suddenly taken away
This is for those who have loved
From conception to birth

Shaping and molding a young mind

Raising her children

John please save me a seat
The enemies that they would have you fighting
start with other Americans here
For you must tow the line in November
or else we all we have too much to fear
But let's look at the merry-go ground they give us
more then the bare eye can tell
Institutions will still get richer
of this we should know really well
For when two billion is spent in advertising
that money doesn't go to you or me
But networks that are hardly diverse
maybe a token here and there to see
For it still is a struggle for a nonwhite
to get on the any screen...
