He stands on the stage with muscles tensed and mind relaxed.  His ability to perceive anything at once is employed.  And there are twins in the hall, a frog in the toilet, and nowhere (out of sight) is the aphrodisiac named Lenny.  A common misconception is the conception of any order at all, and everything you want to exist now, or ever existed, a priori: this is the meat-muscle, the excreting weener, of Cain.
"Nowhere, man," states the deaf mute with essence, "must have a musk, a muse."  An Algonquin replied, "Stay away from that horrifying ontology."
The man on the stage is at the same time becoming less inquisitive, more unconcerned and fallow, and now he watches their amusement from off-stage!
Now, those poor, poor people on the balcony--watching him, recording every minute--they do not cow him, for he watches them as an aside only, for the figure on the stage rises, mimicking an immense marble statue.  His spine stretches, as the calls of his own voice call out, in his own voice emit, for the figure on the stage, especially when he calls, little or no recognition.  The only voice, obviously, is this unrecognizable, willful voice that once belonged to him.  Although it cannot be, it can.  Although it is not possible (that it is not), it is.  His personal translation beckons concern.
With all his initial reactions lost, no longer won, no longer controlled, he is, by those very two filters, totally unmediated.  But steadfast guile and limitless misery become his (one-two) weapons.  The elations, employed at last year's performance, are absent.  Crying, he becomes, just as defeated as a whim.  But his legs move around, and he jives and jives and jives, like a crazy set of legs, as if almost no technique is being spared.  Tonight.  Tonight he is earning his pay.  Pray.  Prey.  Tonight!  But only a willful moneymaker, a master of his control, in this reality, earns him his pay.
"Sing!  Sing!  Sing!  Sing!  For I'm praying you!" screams an old man in the orchestra pit, "For I'm paying you with my best!  Tonight!  In all ways, I am yours!"
The dancing marble man looks up.  He looks at the world.  And from the smoke, a seed believes its lofty purpose lost, in a mournful message, in a reluctant admission to that unforeseen realm, of communiqué.

When I was young, I was born with a silver spoon
The paper airplanes were dollar bills, doubloons were stars and moons
And my father wore a velvet glove on his iron fist
The eggshells I walked would crumble like chalk; I had no complaints- they were diamond encrusted
But times have changed, the moneymaker's deranged, the silver spoon's tarnished and rusted
It dissolved into sand in my work-callousless hand
And moths feast on the fund I was trusted.
I've learned I can never count on anything.

Every teacher, producer, moneymaker.

They fly by with their huge signs and loud prints.

Everything is a constant cramming in

REMEMBER THIS!!

BUY THIS!!

DON'T BUY THAT!! THIS IS BETTER!!

DON'T FORGET TO STUDY FOR THE TEST!!


No one shuts up,

or burns down those signs.


Maybe someday things will get better,

But they won't.

One day our eyes will burn out

our ears blow.


And maybe then we'll have some peace.

We, as women, are told to be a certain thing

We are told to do this
To not do this
To get in the kitchen
And make you a sandwich

Pushed to have the figure of a goddess
Or, close to a Victoria Secret model
Without being able to work out
Because that would take time from house chores

Molded to have perfect manners
And never speak, unless spoken to
Always say "Yes" and "Please"
To not have thoughts of your own
Spend your time at home,
But have the knowledge of a scholar

Demanded to get married
Before you even finish college
And have children just as quick

As men,
We are told to bear all responsibilities
Expected to be the moneymaker
And have a job where you go each day

You are the protector
Used as a shield
And then discarded just as easily

Made to have a Calvin Klein body
With matching biceps
When you have different,
They look at you as if you are strange
Another species

Forced to think and act one way
To match the norms
Think about *** and *****
Or which party you'll be going to next

Now tell me,
Who truly has it harder?

Say ****.
Images of a man instantly appear to the mind.
Say side-chick and many see it as a lover on the side.

Still, she is a MISTRESS.
So why use term side-chick like its some lesser trait?

She is pimping him because she got the tools required to do it.
Many women played the pimping game to get ahead.
Even use it as leverage now.

**** need employees to operate firmly in profits.
Which makes many wonders why many women in the game give him the money?
You the one working at the labor stress relief.

Then there's the Body pleaser that taken very well of by the females seeking joy behind the spouse back.
Being **** to satisfy his moneymaker.

Take heed, what in the news today?
Will be in the news in the future.

Many pimping their way through colleges.

Employ yourself.
Be independent of the uttermost.
Don't not upon a man to be the moneymaker.
Because it makes you a slave to this man.

He dictates your ways.
He controls your days.
Get not these words wrong.
Some love being the homemaker of the home.

It's not about you or him being King or Queen.
Cause an empty throne means not a single thing.

Many ladies in this male control situation have been violated.
And never reported it.
Some been abused by the male control fool.

Be not a slave to a man by being simply a housewife.
Sure some hold onto those old golden ways and not all of them were good things.

You find the arguments you had a few days before.
It makes you turn totally different when you seeking money for a few things.
You turn on your charm and affection more to play the romantic thrill game.
But if you have your own money the power control changes a few steps.

And many probably enjoy the help.
