Oh Brother!

When I think of perfection
You’re the first thing I see
Because ever since I could recall
That’s what you’ve been to me
Instrumental in my growth
Even though I’m a bit older
Anytime I need to
I could lean on your shoulder
You’re the light shining brightly
On the darkest of days
And a phenomenal man
I wish more had your ways
I love that you’re [...]

My Life

My eyes are open
But I’m so blind
I think I know it all
With my closed mind
My pain is pleasure
My joy is pain
No psychotherapist
Can render me sane
Problem after problem
With no resolution
Will surely have me
In somebody’s institution
I need an escape
From my own self
For this state of depression
Has affected my health
I won’t take meds
Not because of my pride
But because [...]

The Mask

“The things we conceal under the mask will one day cause us to breakdown, for the mask only covers up the person you really are.” – Dan-Sean Mankind
This post is dedicated to some very good friends of mine. You know who you are… R.I.P Spark
I was once dependant upon this mask I used to wear to [...]

On This Day…

I have to thank God for those times he spared my life: The many times as a child when I contemplated suicide, the time in that hotel in Scranton when I damn near died high on E fused with liquor and weed, the time when I crashed the Pathfinder on black ice leaving Wilkes-Barre on [...]

A Man…

Should accept responsibility for his actions-Should set the example for those around him being a positive influence-Should never raise his hands to hurt a woman-Should cry when he feels the need to and know that crying doesn’t make you weak-Should do whatever he can to provide for himself and his family-Should never allow ego to [...]

Standing Still:Still Standing

For the past couple of months, I’ve been somewhat at a standstill. Many things were consuming my mind and taking a major toll on me. I was so out of the loop and I didn’t feel like myself. No ambition, no determination, no will and drive to work, eat or do the things I’ve grown [...]

2012 Olympics – HIP HOP Does It Again

With Hip Hop under attack for misogynistic lyrics and content, artists that seem to be “faking the funk” and a seemly lost generation of kids whose apathy only matches the amount of platinum teeth they have in their grillz or their success equaling how many BM’s or BD’s (Baby’s Mommas/Daddies) you got, [...]

Does EBT Card = Credit Card?

In the middle of war time and an economy that is going down the tubes, we at least have one shining light to hang on to. . .
Food Stamps are now accepted at your local gas stations – yes, you read correctly. Well, at least I know that food stamps are accepted at my local [...]

Side Bar: Text Messaging (SMS)

Text Messaging (SMS) is a Godsend and I’m very appreciative. In a time when people are becoming annoying to talk to (myself included) it’s best to have text messaging.
With so much to do and so little time to do it don’t waist my time with some idle chit chat and some fake salutation. Let’s just [...]
