Sanitation
I wasn't always sane.
Watching tv
And listening to "adults" turned me this way.
How childish I used to be,
Playing with creativity.
But those ideas only belie
The futility of asking why
When conformity
Is the strongest way
To build my CV and resume.

This man, ? No, Man
The road to humanity is strewn with thorns, spikes, with shards of bloody resistance,on
our chest we must creep to get to its heart, to which the roads are even paved with stark rejection,
merciless actions, irresponsible objections, and denial of the clear facts,,mindset fallacy and foremost false pretense..
And to the soul, the road is much more hard to follow, it passes over mountains
of patience, and across oceans of spontaneity, sail counter the flow of the actual
current,.......turn the hours back to original initiation..the soul is the...

"Black Boss"
Welcome to my new economy!
Hiring all races and ethnicities!
All Asians are welcomed as well as Jewish and Indians, Spanish, Italian and Mexican,even Saudi Arabian, Pakistani even African! Etc....
For all those with black pride, black activists who refuse to show support as a team and try push aside the vibes!!
Instead of being a monolithic people, moving as equals, with a code of conduct of respect to discern and disect!!
As a group and a team, with team power moving forward as a culture!
With a sharp eye 👁 to see 👀...

C'Mon, Give It Up...
I've sure given up on giving stuff up
like all my goodies I'm supposed to quit
so New Years Resolutions can just get stuffed,
And I'll grow old and fat, stewed in my cups,
because giving up things can be the pits
I've sure given up on giving stuff up...
Like scoffing chocs, dribbling beer as I sup,
or hoarding tat as if I've sticky mits
so New Years Resolutions can just get stuffed,
Or ranting at the neighbour's cheeky pups, ...
like all my goodies I'm supposed to quit

The Underlying Importance Of Everyday Things
I learned a long time ago
That there is no greatness
In having things
And yet, some things
Are entirely necessary
For ones survival
It's the underlying importance
Of everyday things
It's a truth of life
That seldom do people
Get everything they want
I have become content
In knowing life
Is better off that way
And that what's meant for me
Is sure to come my way
I now know
That writing and helping others
Are both necessary to
Fulfill the longings
Of my soul ...
That there is no greatness
In having things
And yet, some things
Are entirely necessary
For ones survival
It's the underlying importance
Of everyday things
It's a truth of life
That seldom do people
Get everything they want
I have become content
In knowing life
Is better off that way
And that what's meant for me
Is sure to come my way
I now know
That writing and helping others
Are both necessary to
Fulfill the longings
Of my soul ...

"Canoeing the Mountains"
They say that “the church” today
is like the Lewis & Clark expedition –
charting new territory,
exploring the ashes & ruins of Christendom,
finding a new route to the Great Commission…
it’s supposed to be inspiring.
Problem is, we’re not explorers at heart;
there’s not enough curiosity
and we never volunteered for this journey.
We thought we had already arrived.
Knew our map inside & out;
so convinced of its righteousness
we just slapped it onto the turtle’s back
without stopping to look
at the beauty of...

Tim's Surprise For Robin
After seeing that they were in
the bedroom and alone, Robin
had her eyes put in a blindfold
by her best friend Tim before he
led her in a room that could be
used as a party room by old
friends and took the blindfold off for
her to hear the pals she knows roar
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY" which was so bold.
