Who remembers that thick black skillet?
Almost worse than a hammer.
Heavy duty but reliable.

Unlike, these pots and pans that burn easier today.
That black skillet stood out in various ways.

Everybody, but you.
We sit, we listen, and we judge.
Yes, we do.
I'm only telling the truth.

The leader of the flock gives their opinion on political this and that.
Yes, they crying loudly under the attack.

But hide behind those infamous words?
You should never put your mouth upon leaders of the church.

But just because they speak?
That doesn't mean, we all agree.
Sure, some nod their heads.

But it doesn't mean, they are on board.

We listen.
We sit.
We judge.
Except, we are aware of those famous words judge not if you can't be judged.

The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice.
Well, what about the cherry?
Not everybody t like strawberry.

Some, like blueberry for their meals.
Some like various fruits to seal the deal.
So personal choice depends on the source.

Love, we see it.
We, who seeks it?
Would like to enjoy it.

But, are you qualified?
Love takes effort to make it a purpose.
So, are you qualified to be in love?

We know folks on the job not qualified for that position.
More likely got it through a close connection.

Then, there you skilled with love thrills.
Only seeking something or someone real.

But the question remains?
Are you qualified?

You, ask, who I love?
I say you.
Very proud too.

You, ask to state the truth.
I say you.
Very proud too.

The beam of love still shines within my eyes.
And not once will I ever apologize.

Oh, you said I should leave you because of your sickness.
But our vows said for better or worse.
I'm forever your glue.
Besides, I'm stuck on you.

Don't use the movies to try to make yourself, the perfect man?
Eventually, you come to the realization, they only playing apart.

And in facts and truth, even your perfect man will have faults.

Too many of you want a Gere or Denzel type.
Like, you comprehend everything nice about their lives.

A perfect man falls under the word image.
Then don't most of us?
Presenting a pretense to those, we are trying to win to love.
