he was born in the city
he had no home

he was on his own
he had no mamma

he had no friends

what was I to do

Can you picture this sad true story
a young child of 13
one without hope
no home sweet home
no happy memories
with only God to wish to
living on the streets

struggling to eat
struggling to sleep
trying to be a man
but still a trembling child inside

and all alone
I found this child name Derrick in the streets of my hometown. It was so sad no one would reach out to him, but I did, it hurt me so bad the way people treat this child. I manage to feed him and get him to a children's shelter. I hug him and said i will help and that I loved him and all he could do is cry and have a small sign of hope. Society is ******* to let this happen.
OK, let me seem to be the one "devil" not to honour,
A man is great enough to get the "universe's message" out,
More than 200,000,000 tune in every Sunday
To hear him, the great works fools fantasize about.

"Informing" people why they were born, what the powers are,
Tell us all about these three kings/wise men following a star,
"It's all mind candy, I tell you!" But then I'm silenced,
These people are at the top for being ignorant near and far.

They give us these messages, love each other, don't ****,
Then they bring the Saviorettes out, lambs off of battlefield,
And they bury them with gun in hand, Davy Crocket style,
There is some sort of irony in this, one that is in denial.

So I ask you why these people will spend millions,
Will fall upon their knees in front of a stupid T.V.
This farm slop, this pig wig god, in the endless billions,
To tell you what became of what you call "true history?"
I should be prompt in pointing out-I just don't like Southern "slop" religion, I've got no problem if you want to display your sacred beliefs in an educated, decent manner...NONE at ALL.
Walking in the garden,
I stepped onto the grass
Barefoot,
And revelled in the tingles
On the soles of my feet
That made me smile.

The grass was wet.
Absently, I sat myself down
And felt the grass in my hands...
'The grass is wet,' I thought,
'It feels nice, cool and peaceful,
But water doesn't catch fire...'


*Can the fire inside me burn in serenity?
Or will it burn out my peace
