BLACKMAN UNFOLDS
preservationman Jul 2023
A world of wonder, but no delight
Anguished with always under plight
Living life doesn’t come easy
Struggles that can become overbearing
Love that is not love at the other end
The unfamiliar blend
Trying to fit in as a Blackman is at end
When you try to explain
It becomes lies by response
True spoken words
Not heard
No one listens
Emotions break out
Even tears
Cries being from a Blackman
Thinking positive is not always an option
Staying away from negativity almost impossible
Possibly forming maybe, could be or never
As a Blackman being the center of attention
Transgression
A black man wonders will he be alive or dead
Thought to think on
Sometimes it’s hard to even get along
A fight here and misunderstanding there
Am I understood
I can’t control what I feel
It is a big deal
Is this what the Black man is about?
Racism at all angles
Is this the way the Black man is to live?
I wonder, truly wonder
No resolutions only conclusions
Drawing only from personal experiences
Having gone through instances
A Black man only understands
I am a Black man
I speak
The Black man knows
The world doesn’t understand, but won’t
I am expected to accept
But I won’t.

EMBRACING EXPRESSION
preservationman Jul 2016
Killings that need to end
A healing process that needs to begin
There must be an end to all this hate
We need to come together in communicate and relate
We must do this before it's too late
There is enough wars in the world
This should not be United States swirl
We must put a stop to hatred and guns
Families are losing love one’s
They are separated from being among
Lives matters to everyone
It can’t be a conclusion and lives are done
Race comes in all physical shades
Yet the message must be strongly enforced
But there must be understanding in steering the course
But how can hatred be tossed
People’s attitudes must make a change
Hatred cannot become the theory of rearrange
Attitudes must become positive and not torned down
A loving personality must be established all around
Guns should only be used when another gun in harm that involved
Yet the gun situation needs to be resolved
Now Capitol Hill, what are you waiting for
Conditions alarm, perhaps or
We need a strong cause and effect
But better yet
Police Training in handling their job won’t be enough
A strong dialog that should be tough
You can’t be bias in being on force
Investigation practices must be added to the course
We can’t have Police continuing city after city in being racial rough
A new frontier of Police respect may not be enough
Once again, all lives matter
But movement must be swift and not so much chatter
Nation to nation and across the globe
Let’s embrace the loving and get along message
Achieve in enhance being the togetherness approach
Lives matter, are you ready?

MY WALK WITH THE SHEPHERD
preservationman Oct 2014
The Lord and I talked on earth
Yes it seemed my life was transcending into a new birth
Yet we walked and talked
The Lord had encouragement for me
The things on this earth just let be
I am the Lord who sits high and looks below and I see
My heart was full of praise
It’s my testimony that would amaze
My candid look of Jesus face
This is something that I will never erase
That walk with thee
All this being his servant and being merciful to me
A Heavenly calm voice
The spiritual icon being the choice
The Savior who can make thunder roar
Oceans to behave
Make the earth shake
The wonders in behold
A stretched out hand
God’s power always at his command
Again those influencing words
I can tell you, I have heard
“One walk, one voice with faith to believe and an open heart to receive combined with the armory against the Devil to not be deceived”
My soul at the call of the Lord
Strength to withstand the evil of the sword
Powers from above
The flight like a white Dove
Divinity within salvation to think of.

FAITH EMBODIED
preservationman Jul 2019
In church on Sunday gone, one of the Ministers within the church preached a sermon with the theme, “WHERE IS YOUR FAITH?”
Look at the world in turmoil
People are living with not believing in Faith on this Earth soil\
How many people do you think don’t have Faith?
Too many to count huh
You would be counting into everlasting
Faith is a matter in having hope in believing
The blessings come when Faith is for you in receiving
But doubt seems to overshadow keeping people from reaching Faith altogether
Whether or not one believes in Faith, doubt only becomes temporary where Faith will take over
If you want hope, one must be open to believe
In order to overcome any struggle, one must believe there is assurance in overcoming
There is False Hope
This is where one thinks they can’t cope
But it is Faith that helps you cope and gives you hope
True Faith is moving through a storm and knowing you won’t be harmed
That is true Faith with the full garment of assurance
The full praise influence
Assurance you can count on through Faith
You are never alone
Yet Faith will always let itself be shown
The fulfillment being known
So try Faith when things get you down
Start believing and watch as Faith picks you up and praising being your sound.

INTO THE NIGHT
preservationman Nov 2016
The clear darkness said it right
The twinkle of the stars that shine bright
A bright Full Moon being a destiny in life pursue
The wonders of my heart
My dreams that became a reality
Living is about taking responsibility
One can only see, but it takes analytical sight
Where there is darkness is followed by light
Where there are problems comes solutions from plight
The night that made me think
I am captioning the moment in ink
The night being more than a centerpiece fireplace
It’s time that never can be erased
Oh the joy in knowing
The plateau’s in life where one can reach
Destined in values
Virtues with there own individual hidden treasures
Elements all for good measure
The night I will absorb, but tomorrow life in meaning
A reason to live and conquests too achieve
Night like a temporary curtain, but outward in horizon being certain
I believe in me where others don’t
It’s the same people that won’t
I will persuade for all too see
Night is only my hour, but understanding at dawn will be my power.

THE STORY OF LIFE
preservationman Feb 2015
Months upon months as anticipation all kept in
The moment of birth that will begin
Eye’s open in seeing the world for the very first time
A baby testing lungs in a whine
Stages of life in parents teaching their babe
Then there’s a lesson of obedient called behave
Years will roll on and on
Each stage the babe becomes strong
Later it will be schooling
It will be the concepts within fundamentals learning tools
The teenage years in how to laugh and be cool
A time to explore and learn how too preserver
Your heart always being close and very near
Years continuing and rolling on
Finding place in society of where one belongs
Being inspired and with a foundation in being strong
Life is truly a moment too moment thing
The idea of living the life is letting it become a shining bling.

I STAND ON SOLID GROUND
preservationman Jul 2016
I am a black man who stands with pride and responsibility
I am the person who strides on family providing
My responsibility is to lead
Having understanding to proceed
Yet society has labeled me
It’s a message of don’t trust what you see
Society’s purpose that I have no right to speak
I dare not even tweet
However I have reason to live
I am more of a verb than an adjective
Society would rather delete me in subtract than be wise in multiply
But here’s why, it all started from history back
Slavery being part of the track
But Freedom to excel was the civil rights movement being a combat
Yet history seems to be revolving itself
A shade of another color doesn’t fit in the Crayola
The mission seems to state, “**** until Dead”
Some Police present lack of trust
Just shoot being a must
But justification has taken a negative turn
The focus of a minority feeling like a sandy Urn
Emotions being aggression
Respect a question not needing permission
Being a Black Man
I Stand Alone
But the multitudes of Life Matters in efforts in letting it be known
We need life that will be soothe into smooth
There is everything to prove
Change that must come
We must move forward from
Life is worth living until Heaven says it is up.

A BUS NUT DREAM
preservationman Jul 2018
My eyes felt ever so deep to sleep. They would open and close. Then suddenly, my eyes felt like a finale when a curtain comes down. Now I was into a deep sleep, and my dream was presented. A Greyhound Mack 1931 showed up and used its headlights being a spotlight on me. The Mack said, “You look like you could use a friend”. I know you are a “BUS NUT”, but you are about to be surrounded with buses upon buses being your friend, and we will give you the inspiration to go on like no end. Let me introduce you to the MCI Renaissance, the start of new bus technology, the MC6 Supercruiser known as the bus of tomorrow with destination to our hearts, the MC7 that would catch anyone’s interest. Then there’s the MC8, a bus nut would appreciate. The Prevost being a new arisen but what the manufacturer can create. Now that is only a few, but you will soon awake.

As you continue to explore buses of any kind you won’t ignore. So we the buses will always be your friend. In fact, it extends to the highways being no end. The exhaust is our force. But along with buses, you will start to acquaint the many fellowships with other bus enthusiast such as yourself. It will be exchanging thoughts full of ideas and opinions. This is your heart felt moment. So enjoy your day, but we as buses just wanted to continue to show you the way. Our encouragement to all bus nuts goes like this, “So buses on tire wheels, and we consider ourselves a moving reel, and yes there is a past, but is just time accelerating in fast. Buses it is, but vintage that will always be”. I woke up with continued bus passion.

A time to excel
Yet a moment that shall tell
The YES in thinking positive in making the effect
The YES, YESTERDAY, EDUCATION AND SUCCESS
It is you the individual of who will contest
Yesterday’s dream being in thought in where to start
Ready, set, go being education in the mark
Applying all the components of yesterday and education combined together
Everyone is not like another
Everyone also thinks differently from the other
Success comes to knowing you have achieved leading to this point
It is a matter in what steps you shall take
It is also the efforts you shall make
Tomorrow being the future bringing today
Yet is the YES that your lips should say
Thinking negative will not be ok
I am trying to motivate you and see education being your assessment
Out of the assessment comes commodity
All this surrounds reality
Yes you will accomplish
Yes you will establish
Yes you and only you are distinguished
You are the reason, and your thinking is the vision
You determine your own career division
The yes in you, and now see what you can do as you pursue.

MARRIAGE VOW LOVE

Togetherness of man and woman
The rings being the unity
Husband and Wife becoming their own community
Gathered together being the invited Guest that watch
Two flying Doves are overseeing the kiss in catch
The marriage being an honor of two
The vows of love they both must go through
Love in the eyes of the bliss kiss
Interlude within romance having its own accord
The entire wedding being carefully watched under the eyes of the Lord
Couples match to their own secrete beat
Jumping over the broom in making the entire marriage complete
The token of joy with the throwing of rice
The elegance of a wedding having an outstanding price
A wedding neither will forget
We won’t discuss or get into any regret
A marriage fit with a royal fest
Bliss and happiness in what two married couples will certainly confess.

BULLIED JOUR

Beat down, but still around
My school days
Kicked and punched
All at once
Wounds with scars
Called out many times not my name
Totally lame
Tormented
I was saw as weak
Being easy to defeat
I deserved to be picked on
People’s wishes
I tried to remain strong
I even tried to get along
The bullies weren’t going to have it
I had to fight to survive
It was all in my stride
Reasoning definitely didn’t work
It took all of my Faith to win
Suddenly the bullying came to an end
Overcame
Fulfilled
Destined
I proved unstoppable
Unbreakable

Devotion of a pioneer that stands at every bus mile
Vast bus collections being the Pioneers while
Multitudes upon solitudes that would take up an idle
Contributions throughout, but no longer among
Yet is it the inspiration of the spirit to look upon
A plague will be made being a privilege
Bus legacy being Donald Coffin’s heritage
A major nationwide bus company will dedicate a memory in the pioneers honor on one of their new buses
As the bus travels on regular scheduled runs, the pioneer’s dedication plague will be traveling being remembered as a bus preservationist that was done
The name Donald Coffin throughout
It will be what my Bus Dad achieved
The bus will be remember the devotion on the go
Mr. Coffin’s contributions were his movement in desire being the flow
A man with lots of knowledge and understanding having the know
Buses were Mr. Coffin’s heart
He was sincere in mind and spirit
A major nationwide bus company will illustrate his life through a permanent memorial
It will be at their corporate headquarters
So a man Donald Coffin always being on the move
Buses and more buses being a reminder to prove
Yet a sense of stand and reflect being relaxed on soothe
Greyhound will be travelling across country spreading the Donald Coffin name
Permanent reflection being the aim

TO ACT OR NOT TOO ACT
preservationman Mar 2015
I was acting from a Shakespeare line
My heart was expelling in dramatics combined
My deepest emotions pouring out
I cried that thundered into a big shout
My voice of who I am holds no fear
It’s a new horizon that I hold near
Consequence is not my designated state
It’s how my ideas and aspirations come together in relate
Anger can be sharp s a ****** knife
But understanding is to think before and not twice
But should my life really go on
I have bound in these struggles for so long
My mind tells me I must be strong
I feel like a missing puzzle and there is no place where I belong
Yet I see sunshine with beacons of my shadow in the middle
The clouds seem to offer me encouragement from Heaven’s ways
The advice coming from Heaven in live, and enjoy the Earth stay
Depart not as a timing being on the spot
The idea is too have confidence and give life a shot
My woes became choses of I can win
With that thought, the curtain came down and the play was a finale at the end.
preservationman May 2016
The thought of desire coming from within
A movement of steps in effort for one to begin
Determination rings out loud
A destiny with accomplishment to follow
But not let negativity make you hollow
Dignity with being proud of who you are
Honor with your establishments to look upon
Heavens guidance through direction
Heavens winds being an idea
Where does one go from here?
Anywhere that will spell preserver
Walk on, but without fear
A Heavenly voice encourages that God is always near
No need to stand in the shadows of the rear
You are the example of who shall achieve
You are the wonder that no one can deceive
Evil cannot touch
That might sound like much
But it’s the beauty of true success
However, only you will be able to confess
Your testimony being your experience
You have been given strong endurance
But always remember from where you were influenced
That walk seemingly a mile, but was preparation during while.

I AM SOMEBODY
preservationman Jan 2015
I was brought up with dignity and pride
It is the biblical words spoken being my stride
No reason for me to duck and hide
I can continue to say, “I am Somebody”
A harsh voice wants me to respond without reason
But it is God that instills salvation for all seasons
Again I am somebody who does not take being last as a condition at the end
It is my life to continue too live
My experiences in share in multitudes of give
Many claimed they have walked who think they have been
But God has always been my reason clearly at the end
My question in thought to them was always on when?
I am somebody who has travelled far and observed
Yet today’s struggles my race in what people feel I deserved
My achievements are my talents in what I learned, but others who never tried
Keeping the faith is how I stride
Struggles suggest too let boundaries block
Yet God has his own timing being his own clock
But being somebody tells me not to stop
Encouragement tells me to keep reaching for the top
Freedom of expression and expelling of rights
This keeps me triumphant and not so uptight
Yet I must be merciful and polite
I am somebody where no one can make me change
Release the chains in what society wants to arrange
Let others continue to just complain
Because I am somebody I will remain
Aim to please is only to the Lord
A good faithful servant being the applaud
The one that made me somebody oh thank you Lord.

Excuses, don’t even try

It was added and I shall let it stick
A poetry moment and photo shoot

Yet our bus is moving on in bring America up close
American the beautiful is something to boost
However, our poetry bus will be crossing states coast to coast
This is a travelling poet who doesn’t think like most
Now as we wake up from our nap yond
We have tomorrow to look upon

This poetry bus is making the travelling swirl
Landscape distance being an amaze
The Heavenly one who created it deserves all the praise
Routes after routes

Cities that seem to just come to life
Standing tall and glisten
All one has to do is be silent and listen

Right now, I am thinking on my own tone
“Moving along on this bus, and writing my poetry with no fuss. If I was home, I would probably cuss, but I am relaxed and enjoying my ride. I am prepared to settle back in my reclining seat. This is my comfortable get away treat”
Well look to my eyes, we have arrived in Los Angeles, and I am glazing at the tall high rise
Those tall buildings are reaching the skies
The bus pulls into the gate at the terminal
Poetry took me far
I am at my destination, and it wasn’t a car

You have dreamed in bettering yourself
But always remember, you are not like everybody else

Once you have achieved your tasks, you will then be done
Being motivated is the ultimate word in keeping you charged
March like the Daracell battery rabbit in accomplishing more
Don’t stop, but continue to explore
The key being courage to open the door
Opportunity knocking, but don’t ignore
Be destined with a confirmed sure

POETRY LAUGHTER

It was a letter telling a word have you heard?
An alphabet letter is better and a word is not
What is this some sort of plot?
What makes you think an alphabet letter is better?
As a letter of the alphabet, I can form many words used in many sentences
But the word responded as there are other instances
Now as a word, alphabet letters can be reversed to form other words to highlight the sentences
You are making me feel I should jump into some alphabet soup
The word said, I am only making my point being a coup
Now we don’t have to justify who qualifies
We just need to see eye to eye
Why don’t we just collaborate?
Now that is something all readers would appreciate
A journey against what’s in the hidden mind
Alphabet letter and words all combined
As time changes, so does alphabet letters and words
Now to the reader, have you heard?
A letter and a word have teamed up
There is no need to compete
Letters and words are the poetry treat
It’s what’s thought of and can be written.

THE TAIL OF TWO AUTHORS
preservationman Jun 2016
One Author wrote of his own writings past
Another Author wrote his life as a thief
Two lives having extraordinary detail
All you have to is come with me in the trail
But before I begin, I want to inspire that there is no such thing as fail
It’s the determination to succeed and continuing inspiration in proceed
Joe who is the first Author, he wrote all about his life
He would often just sit and write sentences
But there was something in those sentences that had an impact
People would often read Joe’s sentences, and the readers would always say, “Your sentences seemed to attract”
Joe had never thought about being a writer until an Editor of a Magazine had a copy of what he wrote in the past, and suggested that he write a book
But the idea didn’t catch on right away in fact Joe had a puzzled look on his face
However Joe ventured out to see how writing his first book would sell
It became New York Times book list, and there’s your tell

Now Warren being another Author took a different approach
However, this is no joke
Warren was a thief in his past
But as he got older, his stealing didn’t last
Warren decided to write a book about being a thief and encourage young people that there is relief
He sat down and wrote every account of what being a thief was all about
But one reading of Warren’s story was nothing that any reader had to figure out
The whole point in putting stealing on alert
Warren wanted all readers to know that stealing is now a perk
Yet, Warren continued to write, but added being a Motivational Speaker
Two Authors having different lives
But with both outcomes and the word being strive.

WHISPERS BEYOND
preservationman Oct 2015
Mire voices echoing in my head
Am I dreaming instead?
Yet I feel I am being talked to
It’s every day living through and through
Yet I don’t seem to have still a clue
Perhaps a method of inspiration coming far away
It seemed so sudden even on this day
The whispers were telling me to appreciate
But as I walked I stopped in my tracks on hesitate
Yet whispers moved my footsteps to position of on
I had no idea as to where in life I belong
Yet it seemed the voices had the true answer
But of course I was in a prance
Whispers had my ears in being well toned
My destiny would be coming sometime soon
Whispers telling don’t worry what people say
You are thinking normal and you are ok
Tell me more I responded to the whispers
But the whispers responded, “I have already heard and captioned every meaningful word”.

Praises go up and the Blessings come down
The Savior’s inspiring voice and the Bible scriptures being Heaven’s sound
Life is an everyday battle, but the answer being the Lord in not having your nerves rattle
The battle being in how assured you believe in the Lord
Heaven’s open door for you too explore
As time gets nearer, there is no time too ignore
The Sun has joined in Heaven’s rays
Changes are being made in every way
There are many words that come to mind that I could say
However, these are my words on this day
“A new day that no one has ever seen, but it is the Holy Spirit that inspires in keeping all Unbeliever’s Soul’s clean. It is your first stop in
Accepting Christ as your personal Savior. It’s the joy, praises and new
Beginnings for one too savor”
There’s your Good News
With the Lord, you have nothing too lose
You have everything to gain, as it is the Lord that soothes.

Put that farewell vibe on hold
I am a performer and I am going to be bold
I have a story that needs to be told
The spotlight is what started me to enter
My Broadway performance will not be over until I sing
But just remember one thing
It might be a sour note I hit
I guess at some point my Broadway regards will be it
But for now, Broadway calls
I have established myself for all
I must answer
Now Broadway being the Great White Way
I feel the rhythm and the music sounds ok
But what direction do I take?
I might have made one mistake
The audience seems to applause
It’s there reason of course
I think will add the piano to my entertainment
As show business states, one must have total commitment
Just my luck, the piano cover will probably fall on my fingers
I could just see it now, the pain will continue to linger
I will do my best to entertain
But someone in the audience yelled, “That sour note singer can no longer remain”
Talk about Audience Rebellion taking aim
All I can do is to continue to perform and don’t complain
Broadway Eyes, please help me to be wise
At some point, I guess I will have to apologize
But Broadway has me all charged up and I am energized
Yet wait a moment, the Duracell bunny has stepped on the stage and I am totally surprised
He went on and on and all I can do was just yond
As for me, the orchestra even had their revenge
I guess this is my end to Broadway
Short as it was
I had no choice but to give my regards to Broadway
The curtain immediately came down
Later I was no where to be found
I simply got out of town.

I was on vacation in Los Angeles
So I decided to see the sights
It was Hollywood in Burbank, California
NBC-TV
The theme then, “Come home to NBC
That was in 1983
But I was far from home, but it didn’t matter because with NBC anywhere could be home
I toured the NBC Studios and saw Celebrities along the way
I saw BOB HOPE who was tall and met personally and direct, ANN JULIAN being another celebrity
But I also saw the NBC Los Angeles News Team
However, it wasn’t just NBC alone as it was the acting and effects that makes NBC being NBC
We took an adventure into outer space, but we survived being our own trace
We also analyzed the game show of the “Wheel of Fortune” behind the scenes
The Wheel is nothing more than thin paper but you don’t see that on Television
In fact, the camera camouflages so you wouldn’t see what we saw
The labels on the wheel are glued and not exactly straight
This was my NBC adventure
Seeing the Studio a total venture
So I came home to New York from NBC Bliss
I was determined, I surely didn’t miss.

SAVING TOMORROW
preservationman Feb 2016
Rise and shine
This is the day to live
Yesterday was a day in preparing living for tomorrow
The living being your hour glass
A time telling you to keep on living

Yet one’s heart can be troubled with despite
Counseling is a form of share
One’s emotion can start at sorrow
But let me illustrate a mural, I am standing high above on rocks overlooking the ocean
As I stand there, I have a notion
Whose lives can I save today?
What some of encouragement can I offer being living every step of the way?

Saving lives means understanding one’s self
You are not like everybody else
Suicide is not a stride
It’s being cowardly and an excuse to hide
There are many options that offer positive approaches to abide
It’s about being confident and assured
Its believing that was established by the Lord
Saving lives is a daily continuous effort
But one is never alone and living means you don’t have to bare it alone

I gave you a picture involving an ocean
Along with that ocean is comfort, but there will be times storms will arise
The horizon is the image for you to see the reason to live
Living is encouraging advice from give
When life seems like a struggle, take your eyes to the skies in finding hope
It’s the Heaven’s that helps us all to cope
Saving lives, but thinking of others
Making choices but follow wisdom
The sun rise being your wakeup call as it is the establishment of living for all
The thought of saving lives is saving tomorrow.

SLAUGHTER ME NOT
preservationman Feb 2017
Run away Bull
But in the tristate of New York
Yes, a Bull on its way to the Slaughter House that saw the chance to be on the run
The Bull was determined he wasn’t going to be out done
This run certainly wasn’t for fun
So the Bull decided he was going to enjoy the sweet moments of air and freedom
The Police tried to catch
It seemed more like fetch
But the Bull kept being on the move
The Bull had everything to prove
The Bull was thinking, “No Slaughter House for me”
Yet there were witnesses that did see
It was surprised by all
But the Bull was what the witnesses saw
I guess the bull missed his home farm
The Bull maybe was trying to go back
However, the Bull seemed to run around the block
The Police were planning to capture in being a plot
Well the Bull slowed down
He was tranquilized and felt to the ground
The Slaughter House waited, and the Bull was where he was supposed to arrive
Did the Bull survive long?
One only knows
But it all goes to show, Bulls can run.

Father I cry
My tears flow like a fountain
My heart continues to be weary
I need comfort to quite it my soul
I need God’s holy spirit to help me look up and see behold
A son loss in a struggle of despair
Yet you are the Savior that no one can compare
I pray deep
I need your mercy in keep
Your spirit tells me through darkness there is a light
This light is in remembrance in helping you overcome your plight
Trust in the above
Jesus the almighty to think of
A scar being a mire cut
I know it doesn’t sound like much
But God delivers and he does comfort

A sunrise with a darkened heart
A triggered shot with a hushed voice
Acceleration of life with tomorrow having no meaning
Another soul to sleep
The Devil’s demise in attempt to keep
God’s eye in wonder
Heavenly soul gone yonder
A young life cut short from the score
A question of justice in needing to explore
A time to pray
A nation in turmoil not feeling ok
The question being when will the volence end?
Tears on what will tomorrow be?
An uncertain pause of wait and see

Life we question in what it seems
However, it is the praying hands given to above
Once again it is Heaven that we think of
Endure in the goodness
I am the witness
To sleep is only a victory on a new tomorrow
A sunrise will return
Everyday living being an urn
God can and will
But continue to think on God still
God will comfort in your distress
But believing in faith your own personal test
Everlasting, fulfillment and joy as the final word
An ending sermon in have you heard
Peace unto you
The praises that is due
Walk in stride as you take God’s word to abide
My lips in one last kiss
Heaven’s doors open wide and remembering the hour in your stride.

HEALTH CLUB WAKE

Your body is telling you its time to train
Your mind is hesitating that your body should remain
This is your introduction in making your before in training that you should explore
A venture in your body becoming the new you
This has been something past due
When temptation set in
This is where exercising becomes the motion to begin
Tell the flab to get out
Slim and trim is what I am talking about
Exercise means eat right and not be uptight
Free weights for added strength
Pain and gain at every length
Remember to get your Doctor’s advice
Concentration, you will be strong as a vice
Who says it’s too late to exercise?
Whoever said that surely wasn’t wise
Exercise opens your mind to a new blend
Exercise also helps you to bend
Exercise is what keeps you alert
Nature’s way in being a perk
The health club is only a place to get your exercise on
Repetitions, intensity and sweat is where you belong
The health club is what you might need
Your sore muscles are telling you the need to proceed
Our health club producing proven results
It is every body composition that will be felt
You must understand exactly what body part you want to train
The rest will be a goal leading to aim
Weights in strength, and determination throughout the length.

DARKNESS SUDDENLY CAME
preservationman Jul 2017
Everyone going their everyday daily task
Normal activities having all varying vast
Some were at work
While others were at home or outdoors
Suddenly darkness came and it seemed time came to a halt
A city in pitch black
Rush hour was all in the smack
Some people were stuck in elevators
Firemen was summoned to various locations in getting people out
Subway and railroad trains stuck in their tracks
Electricity was totally shut down
There was no circuit power that could be found
Thousands upon thousands stranded without any means to get around
The only thing that was available was people’s own wit
But through it all people came together and embraced one another
Yet troubles seem to bring people closer
Darkness it was
The length being uncertain
A moment all being  the same shade
Let it be in what all creatures were made.

A dark and thunderous night
Howling in the distance
Mourns within an instance
It was creatures from everywhere
Yet the eerie night in beware
Traces of blood could be found along the streets
Innocent victims loss into defeat
Suddenly across the street a hand extends from the ground
A deceased unrest was making a rebound
As the deceased walks it is the voice of a troubled sound
The earth was cursed
The rising dead being a new birth
Night of watch and observe
The creatures have taken control of the earth
A moment too late
Tomorrow being a new date
Happy Halloween being the slate.

A Heavenly Hand

As the winds blew
It is God giving the world a cue
The Harlow shade
It was heavenly made
The thunder of attention
The lightening along with the mention
God’s message to the world
I am here in heaven looking high and low
Pray and be sincere and never let go
I am the Lord that can take away fear
Always keep me near
The assurance of one’s faith
The outcome of one’s spirit
God’s reward in giving of merit
Walk with me
Let your light shine for all too see
All this comes from thee
Be encouraged within the say
Keep every day holy I say unto you unto this day.

CAPTAIN EGO
preservationman Sep 2019
Don’t let the name fool you
But let me school you
Captain Ego wasn’t a courageous man
For starters, he is afraid of water
As far as steering a ship
Captain Ego really needs an encouraging tip
But do it quick before the ship takes a dip
Captain Ego seems to have a chip on his shoulder in thinking he is all that
It goes beyond fact
But what he really needs is a rude awakening being a smack
Even the crew knew what Captain Ego was about
It seemed every commotion always turned into a bout
Captain Ego would order the crew being a command, but sounded more like a demand
If Captain Ego doesn’t get his act together, he could very well be fed to the sharks
Mark my word
Now I hope you heard
Yet Captain Ego’s name being a description that doesn’t seem to match
But put Captain Chicken now that would be a catch
He certainly isn’t truth
However, Captain Ego has been that way since his youth
But the seas seem to be in charge
That means, Captain Ego isn’t large
He doesn’t have any sea legs
For calm seas, Captain Ego always begs
The sea being awake and Captain Ego stuck in a yawn
He doesn’t deserve a ship to be steering upon.

A QUESTION OF VIRTUES
preservationman Jul 2016
People labeled me what they thought
The image of me in what the world had me to be
It wasn’t a talk to find out
It was a play of my mind in being a bout
I was called a **** and ******
My voice was a very shy low
I was considered beyond average and my being below
I wasn’t what they thought
But how would I have convinced?
When the world has questions
What answer do you truly give?
I am beyond a verb and don’t consider myself an adjective
I began to challenge myself
This was strictly only for one self
The process didn’t require anybody else
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Why do I feel inadequate like a fall?
But the mirror advised to remain strong and stand tall
The world wants you to feel insufficient and stall
But you must be above all
A story from above, you were created being Heaven’s call
It was your inner heart in what I saw
Because of your given heart, I will encourage you in not to fall
Step out and hold you head up and act tall
Your life is destined for greatness
You are the man being the witness
Your paths are ready for you
Walk straight and continue to pursue.

The many legacies I got
Your words that were spoke
A wakeup call being no joke
Utterance with tolerance
Life will have many turnstiles
But always use understanding during while
A detour might seem like a step back
But true vision is what will keep you on track
What matters most?
You have legacies and that is something to boost

While others doubt
You have something that you can shout
You are a commodity scheduled for preserver
Don’t ever let negativity come near
Knowledge is about bringing out abilities
Education is knowing one’s self
Don’t do like everybody else

Leadership is chosen responders
Knowing how, but not as a follower
Take the when and move to fast forward in can

You are your own award
You have been given the destiny sword
Determination to try and having no fear with a question of why
Life may not be everything you thought
Your legacies have prepared you long into tomorrow

Think of it like this, you are a challenger, but already know how not to be defeated
When negativity says no, put your abilities into illustrate and show yes
You are your conquest and always continue to stride in being your best
You are the test and the only one that can confess
This is just the beginning
Wisdom is your everlasting inning
The more you strive, the more you will continue accomplish
The legacy from all established in me
You are our testimony for all to see.

THE SCRIPT
preservationman Mar 2016
The written word of someone’s life performed on stage
The dialog you will be amazed
The story of a young boy who was bullied and who wanted to commit suicide
But the inner emotion from within in being reside
My life is in shambles
I grew up to only be beat up
People thought I was gay
At least that was discussions way
Word got out from here to there astray
Discussions remained strong
I tried as I may to get along

My Parents even thought so as well
It wasn’t hard as I could tell
But that is not the whole story
I often get strange stares
Yet it wasn’t really crystal clear
I was called names beyond my own
I am you have heard of and they are known

I feel I am not worthy to live
I want to take my life and never again think twice
How should I commit suicide?
Take pills, hang myself or stab myself with a knife into my heart
My life has no meaning
I have no creed to proceed
People want me dead for what they think I have become
Their focus is next to none
I don’t even have my Parents to look upon

My tomorrow has become today
Perhaps I will be better off dead
Then I will never have to hear instead being misled
My eyes are beginning to close, and darkness being the overcast
That second came quick
I am no more.

“I am well pleased with a job well done”
Preaching surrounds the man
All about Faith follows Evangelist Graham caravan
Evangelist Graham died at 99
But he doesn’t want the family and the world to wine
Evangelist Graham wants the world to remember him for his caravan
This was a promise between him and the Lord made
His life is truly complete
The thought of salvation in repeat being neat
Heaven descended and Evangelist was risen up
Evangelist Graham preached even while he was old
His words of atonement having a behold
The miracles he experienced and seen
The Lord was looking down waiting for the world to come clean
Faith will always have an open door
This is for the world in having a sincere heart to explore
Evangelist Graham was truly a man of God
The Lord was well pleased
But now Evangelist Graham can now feel at ease
He doesn’t want anyone to weep
He is in Heaven where his soul shall keep
Evangelist Graham was humble being one of God’s Ambassadors preaching to the world like a Flock of sheep
He says, “I leave you now”
But always remember the enrichment of Christ in wow
I will be walking around and praising in Heaven
Honor the praise with the opportunity being a blessing
But remember world, the bible still teaches a lesson
So people of the world, don’t moan for me
My spotlight came and my message was heard for all to see
Bless it being my ongoing words
Evangelist Graham would say, “Thank you world for letting me be heard”
You will always be in my heart
Yet pray world and don’t stop
Salvation remains, and is what keeps you the Mountain Top
This is Evangelist Graham in not saying Goodbye, but until we meet again
Blessings until you
Heaven I have arrived
My preaching’s continue to strive
My tomorrow came today
But I was blessed every step of the way.

AFTERWHILE
preservationman Feb 2015
The story of salvation
Putting faith into activation
Yet it means truly understanding
But my Grandmother often said, “We will understand after while”
So salvation is a learning style
Being taught all during while
Bible scriptures becoming novel pages
The words feeling like video’s in action being seen
Understanding was finally becoming knowledge
Heaven’s gift being a privilege
Wisdom with honor and glory
Like my Grandmother said, “By and By” being the story
Faith in believing while applying the try
While being during
While in observing while enduring
While deep in the soul while influencing
Yet it was a matter of strengthening belief
The Heavenly flow being the relief
The wonder of understanding
Heaven’s cloud of thought in look above
It’s all Christian education to think of.
