They gathered round his perambulator
To feast on such a wonderful sight:
A newborn radiant, smiling
Kicking his legs in the air
Delighting the hearts of his admirers...
Innocence
So
Fair!

Decades passed.


He became a mass murderer.

She came
Into my life
Like a lucent star in the night
And
Sparkled in my eyes.
I
Thought
I was dreaming
But soon I was believing
She was real.
She
Touched my senses
Elevated my soul
She took me to Heaven
Imbued me with
LOVE!

Women
Have Many faults,
Men
Just TWO...

Nothing right they SAY
Nothing right they DO!

I
Respect
Everybody!
However,
I
Am no respector
Of
Persons.

They are talking about the end
End of the world
Armageddon
Destruction
Upon
Destruction----book of Revelations...
Antichrist!
I
Am  not Jesus,  who I wish I were.
I
Am not satan .
Then,
Who am I?
Simple!
You
Will
Need to prove
Yourself
To me...
And
The World!
Children
Are the key
Look
They
Live
Free...

You run on ahead, Full of life
Fresh as the flowers we pass,
I'm coming, i'm following
Slowed down by the weight of life...
You make me smile
Make me run with you
And
Before you know it,
I' m out of breath.

I sit and rest, watch you at play
My mind wanders to yesterday
When I was young and played in
The Sun...
Where's My age of innocence gone?

Your running
Toward me
Calling ' Dad!'
My arms are
Wide open, to catch you...
You
Make me smile.
Son, it's fun with you!
And
Before you know it...
You
Will be a Man.

I know what I'm thinking you don't
Agree.
It may not be right but it's right by me
At the moment it's how I feel, how I see...
Just me, right or wrong.

I am another Life, another Mind
Another throbbing heart
At this time.

You say listen, listen I do
I hear no words of wisdom
I' m hearing nothing new.
There was a time
It was everyone else
Now it's Me
Becoming Myself... Important or not.

I am another Life, another mind
Another throbbing heart
At this time.

Another life to be something
Another life to be nothing
Another life to  win or lose
Another life to laugh and cry
Another life to live, to die.
