In the end
Our poets and prophets
Meet their end
Not ours;
We all only leave here
What we each brought.
The names remain nameless
Like all words,
That only symbolized what we cannot say
SOME ARE TOO FAT, SOME TOO SKINNY,
WHILE SOME DONT HAVE ANY
Some are just too fat
Some are too skinny
While other dont have anything to eat
They can eat and never get enough
They wont eat any, I do not know why?
But they starve too death.
Do they eat because it is just there?
Do they not eat because it leaves a bad taste in their mouths?
How can you let a child starve to death?
We war for oil; we warred for gold and diamonds
We warred for peace and democracy
We will never war for them to eat!
If there is a war worth fighting for then,
It got to be for them.
Who would not fight for the children?
If there are so many bombs and bullets then,
None fell or were shot for the children who had nothing
That is why they throw up their food to stay skinny
That is why they are eating everything in sight
The body knows whats right:
The mind cannot decide it.
If you had a dollar you would give it for them to eat.
So why cannot the government decide if they should give them your dollars?
And just debate about it as if you cannot decide.
We can understand and explain the red tape like it is a history lesson
BUT we have to learn that lesson before it eats us ALL alive.

TO BILL GATES
(For Wanda)
I heard that you are a fifty-fiver.
I see where all my money went-
So much that you emptied the pot.
So I know what I don't got
But I could have been you
You could have been me,
Somewhat-
I like what I didn't do
And you made it through.
It's more than they see in you.
I know about you!
But even more important,
I see more about me
That my path I did keep.
You would have been my all and all,
When, the bottom fell through.
Why I am and am not you?
Take your places,
On youre mark
(Stay in your lanes)
Set and go!
OUR MIND'S HEARTS
Mental illness is not just an illness of the mind
But it is of the hearts.
Too many people are broken-hearted
By social, economic, and humanitarian problems
That we see, realizing that
In our heart we know
It could be rectified
There being more common sense and compassion.
Not being socially and politically influenced by
The ignorance,
Lacking the knowledge and the understanding for each other;
We refused to give in to the status quo of what our (normal)
Sanity is.
Taught and designed to serve for the greater good.
We as people must remain open with ever our deepest
Conviction to what is only real.
Because were not the Nazis wrong?
Is not the slave owner wrong?
And this world was never flat.
The heart and soul of civilization must be selective.
A view from all angles-
Even the insanities, are not wrong!
Just least tolerated!
1 in five Americans may have a mental illness during life.
You do not have to do what the voices say, (Please do not! You may not know that person!)
But know, you can question and always remember why they were there?
-In our mind's heart.
ITS BEEN A WHILE
You know that we all grow muscles,
Eventually!
It is like, we come of age.
Nothing and no one stays like that.
But there remains
The same obstacles: myself and other people.
I have grown to know that it becomes
More other people and less myself
Because I can always guise myself,
Less I know the others.
It is a bitter pill to swallow
That I WILL NEVER BE RIGHT!
Those others know,
While they do not!
I know if I am right or not!
Is this the illness or
Do we care more about power than being right?
Do we have rights?
Some times fools are cruel!
Is it more what you look like?
Than, what you look at?
Or do we just keep
Spinning the same one wheel?
Has our life gone anywhere?
Is it just the donut?
Maybe it is backwards we go,
Then up is not the other down,
What way is go?
Since the world isnt flat
Has it grown bigger?
Caught up in my madness
I can go on forever....
Until you are not me
I am this animal first.
Before, I am a man
(That is all science has learned).
I humble myself
Before those who are humbler.
Returning home I have a feast!
Life is this lowly thing.
The more I have, the less I need
The greed makes me have more
And the needy still need
There is only one world!
If we can split the atom
Then we can make two worlds?
Make three, four new realities?
It is possible-
If a fool is wrong once
He need not test the water again!
He is going to be foolish!
I easily lose compassion for him,
Because he cries for equality,
But being foolish
He can only count to one.
Home is where the heart is.
It is not the same as being outside.
So, you best cover yourself up!
MY THOUGHTS ON 9/11
I knew it!
I was afraid to say it
But I knew something very
Basic was wrong with the USA
Really!
This is what I (really) felt on that day.
I asked myself
Not what they had done against my country (I saw that!)
But what the hell had my country had done against them?
Then, there was Enron and all the rest.
I then said, This is what happened!
This is what my country did to those people to make them hate me so much!!
We are told in the media that we
Are okay with the rest of the world
But this is not the truth! They hate me!
If the likes of Enron and the rest are our ambassadors
Here and abroad.
If they are cheating strong beautiful American
People out of there life saving (in America)
I do not want to know how a foreigner (in a foreign land)
Is treated by these people of good will?
We have a justice system to protect us from big business.
(Though it may seem not to be in our favor some times)
Imagine what chance a beautiful black African baby with AIDS has.
Maybe, Jihad IS GOD being God, which only he can do!
Just as only he can save us all,
/>
Only HE can send a destruction and defiance
As horrible as what I saw on 9/11!
There is only one God, you see!
WORDS
Take the English name Adam and how he was called the first man
Then there is the atom which is the building block of matter
Matter is just stuff that became important all of a sudden (It mattered!)
Take the word prophet, a special person
And the word profits, the extra money you make after you pay for everything.
Sometimes a prophet is the one who is an extra special person without worldly cares
That risk being unimportant or it all
For things bigger than self!
Insanity over saneness-
Simply over complexity-
Easy burdens over the heavy-weights of the world
And even sometimes life over death.
To maximize your profits in business you also must take risks
(Money is as money does, tough!)
Take the word: Poet
It simply means in any language
A poor idiot
