I put up a new "song". Actually it's slam poetry.

Bradley Hathaway.
I think he's amazing.

----------------------------

Don't want my long hair
pretty green eyes with
No I do not have on mascara
Eyelashes
Skinny figure
Undersized T-shirt

Hip
Shake
Too
Much
when I walk

Confuse anybody...

I am a Manly Man!

Within this sissy frame
obviously rib laden chest
lies a heart
that beats

to the drum of a
Native American ritual dancing
wildness

It pumps an evercascading suppy of untamedness
that a herd of wild mustangs have yet to grasp.

If danger lurks about, I will seek it out.
If adventure abounds, there I will be found.
If a damsel be in distress

I will show her who is best.

I am a Manly Man!

Because I don't flush
and I leave the lid up.

I drive a nineteen
eighty-eight
Ford Pick-up truck.

Girls don't break up with me
I break up with them first!
(except the last time, it didn't really work out that way)

I don't shave the hair on my face
(because there really isn't any,
but when I can grow hair I won't shave it.)

Because beards are tough.
I fart
burp
spit
when I want

Not caring who is nearby

Disrespect my momma
and I will punch you in the eye!

I am a Manly Man!

Or am I?

I tell my guy friends that I love them.
And sometimes, I even hug them.
No I'm not gay.

I just love them.

When I watched Bambi
I cried.
When my mema gets mad
I still run and hide.

Like David I want to be a man after God's own heart.
I'm not there yet, but I'm past the start.

And when people talk
I try to listen
a spirit of compassion
That's my vision.
Surely I am a Manly Man
I want to be loved
and have love
and give Love.
(and not just that romantic kind either)

Although I am looking for that beauty
Not helpless
But wants to be rescued.
The Damsel in distress
Man
Woman
Myth
True.

I will fight for her.

Climb the highest tower for her

Love her.

Share with her.

Delight in her.

Be her warrior.

Her protector.

She will be my crown
and I will be hers.

My Masculinity will be passed down
and affirmed to my sons.

Each of my daughters will know they are lovely
and deserving of authentic romance.

Society tells me all day long

That I have defined manhood completely wrong.

But you ask any honest man and he will agree
You ask any honest woman and she too will see

That I am a Manly Man!

Abigail: Ahaha.... I feel like I have to sneeze all the time. I swear it's like... the best and worst feeling ever.
Michael A: ahaha. you're darling
Abigail: I feel like one of those girls in the movies that looks a mess and she's sitting on her couch eating icecream with a tee shirt and sweat pants on.
Michael A: aww
Michael A: I'm coming out for your senior prom and we are going ALL out, so that everyone stares at us when we walk in the door
Abigail: Ahahaha. Awwww
Abigail: That'd be pretty much amazing.
Abigail: I'm not really worried too much about a date. I know it really bothers everyone else... I mean I bothers me too... but I just planned on NOT having one... because no one will ask me. So better, to plan on it... then be dissappointed.
Abigail: If that made sense. I just figure that I've gone single all four years... what's one more?
Michael A: that is the stupidiest thing i've ever heard
Michael A: now I really wish I could go out there and be your date
Abigail: Ahahah what? It lookes un-stupid to me.
Michael A: well the boys in your school are jackasses
Abigail: Yes. I agree

Abigail: Michael don't let this ruin your night or day. Remember God loves you and if you stick with God you will have life abundantly.
Michael A: <3 you're wonderful

I love my friends.
The End.

Currently Listening On The Moon By Peter Cincotti see related

Why isn't there any TIME anymore?

I'm tired of saying no. No no no no no.
No I can't come to the beach with you.... I have to work.
No I can't come to your concert I have to work.
No, I can't bloody do anything because everyone knows that TIME=MONEY.
So why don't I have money?
I spend time like money.
Five minutes to talk to you: That will be one mood swing... and a venting session please.
Exact change only.
I don't have time for my best friends anymore and frankly they don't have much time for me either. I miss the old days.

I bought a wallet tonight.
I actually splurged and bought genuine leather.
Maybe if you're nice I'll show it to you.
That's something I can say YES to.

So a job oppotunity opened up a couple hours from me.
That means no parents and work work work at the beach.
Should I take it?

The End.

You should buy this CD below... I highly endorse it.

Currently Listening Room Noises By Eisley see related

It feels good to have all the pressure off my shoulders.
I'm in one of those moods to either scream obscenities or break down crying.
I don't know.
I think it's due in part to the music that I bought tonight.

Blindside- The Great Depression
FlyLeaf- Self-titled
Eisley- Room Noises

Flyleaf reminds me of Avril Lavine mixed with Amy Lee. It's pretty nifty and they have a lovely song about the Columbine shooting that touches my heart. Eisley has the uncanny resemblance to Leigh Nash in Sixpence None the Richer. It's a family of 5 siblings in one band. It's amazing. Blindside has once again put out another spectacular album. I actually passed up Family Force 5 for this CD. But all things considered, I have more than 3/4ths of the FF5 CD already.

I was going to wait to tell Trinity this... but I was reading through Hard Music Magazine and someone reviewed the recent Sardonyx  CD "Linear Progression". I thought it rather important because it's FREAKIN HARD MUSIC MAGAZINE!

'This Pennsylvania metal outfit has just rcorded probably it's most solid release with a 4-song EP of worship tunes. The low end has a great deal of beefiness to it, and Tom Delingers's power metal vocals are holding up quite well after all these years. In the vein of Keith Green this album is availibe for "whatever you can afford" to send.[lightshineministries.com]'

In case you didn't know, Trinny's Dad plays in that band. Hooray! I love 80's influenced metal. It makes me smile.

For once, I wasn't tired this morning after retiring to bed late last night. I started to get a migraine after working on my art sketches and took two Exedrine Migraine and went to bed. I got up this morning proptly at 6:30 to write and type up my Liberty essay. I sent the email this morning and they called later in the afternoon to affirm my acceptance. Big surprise there. Liberty accepts everyone. I thought that I had this all planned out... I was going to Roberts and then God is like... "Hey check out Liberty"... *grumble* WTH? I don't know... so here I am... we'll see what the final decision is. I CAN'T WAIT to recieve my big laundry bag and free oversized t-shirts. *rolls eyes here*

In light of all that... I think that I'm going to grab some chocolate and go to bed.

The End.

PS. I think that I'm addicted to this chapstick: Strawberry Banana Starburst LipSmacker

Cynical, just your way
You play the doubting Thomas
Feel the scars and wipe the stains

So you fight, and retreat
And talk yourself out of believing
in any peace that you can't see

Blind words you call
Blind words will fall

You're logical, you can't find
any reason to believe in love
you are blind

Crucify, and deny, pass the blame and burn the mission
Till dust remains and wash your hands

Blind words you call
Blind words will fall
