Greyhound Bus Lines brought you and I together
You became Dad and I was your son
Yet speaking with you was always fun
The man called Donald Coffin, But Dad to me
He died in April at the age of 93
Dad taught me the theory of buses
He was the wisdom and I got the understanding
Dad will be missed, but always remembered
I have two Greyhound bus models I brought from Dad that’s a reminder for me to never forget
Rest now, but do walk around Heaven
I will one day join you
God Bless and Everlasting yours.

My Funeral is here and now
Your tears aren’t sincere
You are full of guilt
You really didn’t care when I was living
You are probably glad I departed
You are only at my Funeral just to see for yourself I am truly deceased
Friends and Family in pretend
My final chapter came to an end
Don’t look down at me in the coffin
There was no love for me on Earth when I was living
I am flyting in spirit like a Dove
Heaven is my new home
Peace and comfort to roam
Time moved on
I am where I belong
My days on Earth meant nothing
I gave my all on Earth
The world took my life for granted
It meant nothing
I am on Transcend mode
Forget me
You are not worthy
My enriched my beginning
My fulfillment complete
Tomorrow is my new day
I did my best
I am no longer among
My praise in God’s honor
Suffer for the living on Earth
You showed yourself and I proved myself
I am among the Believers
My baggage soul is packed and steady
I am on ready
My Heavenly room reserved
This is what I deserve
My moment came quick
I am at the highest

Society says in so many ways
Think positive, as this is what should really stay
Negativity will try to corrupt one’s mind
But just don’t concentrate on the sublime
Put in the idea in using resources that will help motivate
Be active and focused and add in participate and relate
Shield out inner feelings of hate
It is a known fact that thinking nutritious in order to control weight
Don’t debate with yourself
Go deep within your emotions that becomes the change of self
You shouldn’t be like everybody else
The theory of achieve is knowing you can achieve
The focus of receive is the appreciation of established accomplishments
Honor having dignity
Understanding and knowing how to fact reality
By all means, don’t pity yourself
But think of yourself being important like nobody else
The best voice for encouragement is the specific individual alone
I am trying to be a motivational speaker and the outline in letting it be known
Be upbeat like sticks to drums
Step into the sunshine from the shadows being among

You say let’s talk
But you surround me like a stalk
You said you want to the truth of who I am?
I have morals and integrity will continue to stay in my head
No I don’t love you, and won’t jump into bed
I am a Man of honesty
I have virtues through and through
Trust is my honor
Assumption comes from you

Lie after Lie
We never see truth eye to eye
The fact that truth is never told
There is always a withhold
Your lying is what keeps us apart
Now that is just a start
Every questionable thought being a coup
Misleading after misleading like an Alphabet soup
Let truth sat your free
Lying is your hidden trait from the truth
You cheated on the test
Yet you won’t even confess
You cheated on your wife
Now you are expecting advice
You have a hidden past
Your lying won’t continue to last
I need you to be truly honest
There is a witness
Your lying must stop
Nothing you say I believe
Every word that comes out of your mouth spells deceive
Your lying is your true perceive
Liar Liar Liar
One day your lying will cause you in the Justice fire

The Documentation represents the call
It was written many years ago
But there are followers adding although
They are the one’s who want to change
Make the Constitution a total rearrange
But now some Police are getting in the act with Justice of their own
It has become a world affair full blown

Writing with an affection
It might feel like an addiction
But it is truly a presentation
Adding to the heat
But writing with no retreat
Sit down and have a seat

Lips to lips in mine

Hot and humid is the night

A man having the looks and charm as a precious diamond
Don Wand is no simple salmon
He is a man of romance like a God
But so many woman thinks he is a pure dog
Don Wand’s eyes with one look could melt butter
He had the power with his every glance
Don Wand made the woman feel hot deep down
It was like a trap being bound
Don Wand’s kiss had the power to put woman in a trance
It was the hypothesis in his advance
Even the trees in the forest would bow as if Don Wand was a King
It was his demeanor being the thing
Don Wand knew words in how to persuade
It was Don Wand being Don Wand making it in the shade
A loving man that Heaven had made
A loving heart that beats with exhalt

A passenger cruise ship that left from San Juan, Puerto Rico
The ocean was calm and moving slow
The voyage with stops in the Caribbean
A journey to adventure
Eternity with a venture
Unknown to the passengers, there is danger in the air
Yet the Captain is unaware, and continues to preserver
Suddenly clear skies turned into a darkened shadow
The seas immediately became shallow
Blowing winds then followed
Passengers were watching candidly in what Meteorologist let be known
But what was next too be shown?
Mother nature and the seas with the ship being the connection
Immediately, the sea waves began to rise up
The ship would be waterlogged full like a drinking coffee cup
The waves were ever heading for the doomed ship
The ship was pacing back and forth and from side to side in a dip
The waves overpowered the entire ship
Angry seas at the command being God’s tip
Immediately the ship sank below
There were no survives, but no one really knows
Yet it was Davey Jones locker below
The seas were in control being the show
The ship nestled in a sea grave
The darkened clouds have disappeared, and the seas are calm in behave
Heavens watch and souls they crave.
Sometimes allowed to enter
Other times keep out
Closed tight
Unable to unlock
Human minds are like door knobs
Changeable with no reason
Uncertainty with no cause
Forced with a bitter heart
Life unforgiven and solid heart of no trust
Door **** situation in human circumstance
No easy turn
Through the turmoil of refusing understanding
Door **** tough
Sealed firm
Forbidden path
Won’t open
No key given
A mind with forget it
Door **** minds need open minds
When one’s heart is tight, there is no open
Locked forever only to be locked for life.

A story about a Wolf
He was the living proof
Teeth that would often bite
Caution in not taking light
Yet his breathing wasn’t a single puff
The Wolf would often fuss
You see, the Wolf lived all along in the forest
But he would never try to be honest
Every step the Wolf made was a consequence
It wasn’t time well spent
The Wolf often disturbed people
He didn’t have any friends
It all started from the very begin
His Mother and Father who left him in the woods
It has been since being his stood
A Wolf in trying to be wild
All this his whole life while
You remember the story of the Wolf who was trying to blow down the house
His puff wouldn’t even stop a mouse
The Three Pigs being his dig
He had no success
The Wolf won’t even confess
Maybe the Wolf should get a Lie Detection Test
Now that would be best
The Wolf was never sure of himself
But then again, he is no better than anybody else
Yet it is the Wolf that is alone
A story that someone should have known
A Wolf’s life couldn’t be full blown.

Many doubters said I wouldn’t be
But CUNY Medgar Evers College we shall see
I was educated in being a commodity
The lectures with theories of actual life reality
CUNY Medgar Evers College instilled “Precision”
Thinking strategy and reason all under my decision
I became a believer of myself
I don’t think like everybody else
CUNY Medgar Evers College saw my distant horizon
They saw my efforts of being successful being yonder
It makes all the doubters wonder
But it gives CUNY Medgar Evers College the honor
They have a familiar name with a distinguished face
It’s all rounded at a time of the Civil Rights race
It’s Medgar Evers College in taking its place
It’s my own honor in being educated that no one can erase
A trace of philosophy and being prepared
Business world, this is an achiever who is stating a knowledge mode, but establishing a voice in knowing I should be heard
Many thought I would never go through
Doubters tried all kinds of negativity they could do
CUNY Medgar Evers College helped me to ignore
Prosperity is much to explore

They showed me I am everything I was trained to be
I continue to be ready for all to see
But I want to remind all came from thee.

You said you believe in me
But your eyes have a question I see
My gesture is my speech
It becomes no trust
I am being honest
But you lack confidence
What do I have to do to gain your trust?
I am not going to argue and fuss
I am sincere as I can be
But you keep questioning me
Doubt shouldn’t be on your mind
I bring peace
You should listen to me at least
I stated who I am and about
I am a person who believes in integrity
That is my reality
So commitment I stand on
That is how I have been getting along
But you still have doubt
That is something you will have to work out
Trust is my humanly soul
It wasn’t something that I was told
My trust being my confession
I guess this concludes my lesson

Storms of torment within
Emotions cry

Die and be forgotten
Defeat with no victory

Waves shifting here and there
Alone in the struggles
A sunset quickly that grows dark
No one knows the inner self but the person going through
Reality is real

Mystery of the unknown
Tomorrow’s virtue
Words holding true
Where does one stand?

The need to respond
The new day to look upon.

A miles walk to the country store
Blisters on my feet while my shoes relished in defeat
The blisters being my experience sore
A dirt road with all its galore
A farming town
A small house that centered being bound
A town with its own scenery ground
I worked on the farm in the very high hot sun
It wasn’t until sunset when we were done
Experience requiring endurance
A learning phase of influence
The farm animals to care
The grown food in prosperity to share
The true meaning of Deep South
An experience no northern major city can even mouth
It was the Hound bus that got me around
Homeward being New York City bound and arriving safe and sound
Farming I will never forget
Seeing a town in South Carolina leaving no regrets
It’s more of reflect and a lesson far more than elect.

It might be a suggestion

You think hard, and it becomes a mystery
You don’t understand what you truly want
You seem to play with your own words., but aren’t being heard

The book introduced a time to realize
One’s life at some point they should analyze
But to many Motivators, this is no surprise
The book emphasizes cope
Where there is cope, there is also inspiration of hope
There is anticipation in waiting and seeing
Assurance has its own term with the meaning in what it should be
It’s one’s look into what they should expect
Hope in establishing words in the four letters, “HELP, OPTION, PRINCIPLE AND EXCEL”
Hope has words within that give’s one the possibilities into direction
Consider the above sentence alone a lesson
Now those four words in hope are worth a mention
Let’s start with ‘HELP”
This I call the advice mode
Knowing that one is in devastation
But one also doesn’t want to end in destruction
Looking for answers having hope
Help in knowing what one needs
The steps in direction in how to proceed
Now let’s weigh in “OPTION”
What alternative’s does one have?
Will these alternatives be vital to one’s objectives?
The alternatives can be Direct Counseling, Education, Personal Self-Awareness and Faith
We now have reached “PRINCIPLES”
Having a purpose and reasoning from within
One controls the census of one’s decisions
It involves one’s thought being their own equation
Decisions and thoughts that add up
We are finally at “EXCEL”
Now that is self-explanatory
Having inspiration in movement to succeed
Later followed by continuation to proceed
But one must have hope throughout
This I have been talking about
Let me assurance you that there is hope
This is a requirement to believe
Knowing you have hope becomes a relieve
But because of Faith, this is the hope you will receive
Hope should be ongoing throughout daily life on days end
This is where the belief begins
But thank the book where hope was introduced
Always remember, hope is always for your good use.

Maybe a slave who was part of the plantation war

Physical portrait of the other

But God said there is a limit
Yet Death was determined to take to an undesired place
In my mind I tried to erase
But the moment seemed dark
It looked like Death was steadily making its mark
But Death was pushed out by a strong beacon of light
Death couldn’t see me because it had no sight
Intervention that was just too tight

Nothing stops a Heavenly heart

Yet I wonder when and how Death will find me
I will just have to wait and see

Situations occurring
No narration needed
How did America even get into serious situations?
Situations that have caused people to be murdered and even hospitalized
Throughout all this turmoil not even an apology
Guns in the hands with a purpose to ****
Missions with strategies to fulfill
The world often asks themselves in will they be next?
Sometimes wonder circulates as people even step out their doors

Anguish runs through America’s minds
It’s not something sublime
Its reality being truth
Everyone says change must come
But change comes from within everyone who thinks differently in these dreadful
Circumstances
But the same scenario keeps continuing
Its people that must change in order for a change to be a reality
Change must rise in how people think and associate with others
The idea of hate must form togetherness in becoming relate
Right now, we are living in fate

There can’t be I don’t care attitude
Peace must have solitude

What the world needs is love being soothe
Calmness with no worry
Mistakes with sorry
The world can’t change itself as people make up the world
My Grandfather often spoke “IT TAKES ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE TO MAKE UP THE WORLD”
People must change their own narrative in their own justifications
In a world no human created, but why destroy a world that has lots to offer
Some people even think “****” is the way
But what is the cause of one’s negative thinking of others?
Whatever happened in the past let it be buried in the past

Is there encouragement with a preserver?

Dreams having dreams showing my own destiny
It’s anywhere being a city
Rising with no self-pity
Come to my mind and show me the way
Help not to wander and go astray
Dreams into dreaming
Sleep comfortably in peace
Be at ease
Dreams with dreams can only please

Nightmares that come to life
Directions needing advice
Through the subconscious mind no one expects
Be still as the dreams manifest
Unfold
The action straight out being bold
Wonders through the mysteries
The focus on your own history
Untold stories circulating through your mind
Almost near Death
Fear you hold dear
The Outer Limits of your own extremes
Standing along by a stream
Transcending possibilities
Face to Face with your realities
Still on pause
Dreams are the reason being your cause
The body responds
Yet no yond
You are trapped in your own cave
Disobedient as you didn’t behave
Troubled spirits within
Transcend
Take everything of your dream in
Still dreaming
Hoping
Intensifying
Dreams are waiting for your reaction
Dare to Dream the impossible
Extremes
Beyond
Arrived
Wake up
Dreamed upon
You are still among
Destiny the dreams expelled
Destined now
The dreams showed you how

Understand, Reflect and Respond
Stand up on principles
Respond on action
Movement
Turn injustice to equal justice
Dr. King fought hard and travelled far
Journey’s beyond
His dream to look upon
We must believe we can
Our hearts must transcend
Turn the pave of Racism into togetherness as one
Remember Dr. Kings struggles
Never tire
We must gain access
Prosecution unseen
Dr. King’s voice shouted anguished
The movement that was determined
His vision of Civil Rights
Dr. King is our inspiration
Our former President Obama words, “Yes we can and shall”
We must maintain our fight in always exercising our rights
The powers that be want all races to go back into time of then
The world needs to understand, we went forward, and can’t go back
Dr. King wasn’t about separation, but bringing all races together in harmony
The light seems to keep dimming, and we can’t let it diminish
Once in darkness, always in darkness
Washington seems to have closed its eyes
We the American people must realize
Stand up for the cause
We still have work to do that Dr. King couldn’t finish
He sits high and is looking down
What happened to the people I fought for
We must rule Racism out
It wasn’t easy for Dr. King and it won’t be easy again
It’s a purpose and demand
We are all one on America’s land
Like I said earlier, Dr. King’s message for us is UNDERSTAND, REFLECT and RESPOND
Don’t let Dr. King’s dream die out
We are his dream, and we must fulfill
Continue to prevail without fail
Follow Dr. King’s trail
It is more important than ever before
We can’t go backwards
Together, we need to overcome and shall be determined
Dr. King saw the dream
We must embrace his efforts
We need to see a better tomorrow
Reflect back, but only for the moment
We shall overcome, one day
Through God’s help, we will fulfill.
Steady beat
Orchestra plays
Trumpet sounds
A Soldier goes to war, but might not come back
Every sunrise and sunset
Every foot stepping march moving in courage
Every salute being an honor
Symbolic nature
Eye on individual military uniform
Thank you for your service
Echoes of War in sacrifice
The thought of devastation
Ashes that rise with a darkened shade
Front and center made by a Soldier
Purple Heart reminder
Commitment
Mission Control
The Soldier taking whole
The Battlefield
Point of circumstance
Situation at hand
Ammunition response
Music extending in the distance
A soldier’s life cut short in an instance
The aftermath
A final salute and departure
Every effort that was made
Fulfillment of service

Duracell Bunny being full of energy
But today the Duracell Bunny narrating the surprises
It is the time and place
The Town of Easter land is where our story is the trace
It’s the citizens being Rabbits and eggs
Then we encounter Mr. Egghead
He is the Governor of Easter Land
Now every year the citizen folks of Cracken Town and Egg yokes have a challenge every year
You may want to step back and not be near
You could have egg on your face
Over in Cracken Town is where one crack deserves another
Each competitor is different than the other
Cracken Town Gang are determined to remain the reigning champion’s
But are they ready for a possible defeat?
I don’t want to make this story over easy
Perhaps even cheesy
So everything is set, and the atmosphere is in the air, the fragrance of spring
Yes including the Bee sting
So Cracken Town and the Egg Yokes are now in battle
Now hold on to your saddle
Oh no, the Egg Yokes is going to hit that too late, the horse rider
But the horse rider is ok
Wait a minute the horse rider is now in the battle as well
Do tell
Another fight indeed, but let me continue to narrate in proceed
I am only trying to do a good deed
I don’t know why I feel like I am in the town of OZ
Eggs thrown and cracks made
This is definitely an egg war
The Egg Yokes are playing, but Cracken Town folks are no joke
The score is Egg Yokes 8 and Cracken Town 10
So Cracken Town has an edge
Well Cracken Town scored another point
So Cracken Town remains the reigning champion once again
So Easter as they say, it’s Easter Land saying hooray
Happy Easter I say to you, let happiness continue to shine all through

The Earth sky draws dark
The torment of Thy
It was the Hour, Minute and moment Sacrifice
The Lord being beaten and torn
Being forced to wear thorns
The cross standing tall being set
Heavy Rain and Thunder adding to the effect
The flash of lightning being the words from Heaven
The sacrifice begins
Birth to end
Jesus praying and speaking words of gestures during his final hours hanging on the cross
His last words “It is Done”
The Lord’s mission was completed, but we still have a beginning to fulfill in the gospel
He rose from the grave redeeming our souls
King of Kings
Lord of Lords
Easter being the day of Revelation
We are the image of the Lord’s creation
The Savior is the Present, Tomorrow and Future
We are connected in Spirit and Truth
Blessed it is all who believe
Don’t let the Devil take over and deceive
Risen above all

Easter surrounded by colored Easter eggs and season dressing outfits
Then there’s the Easter egg hunt
Run and find being the fun
Yet throughout the day Easter is still not done
A time to attend church
But Easter is circled around the Resurrection rise
This shouldn’t be a surprise
It’s the Holy One who keeps us wise
It’s that look down
The Holy One being the one who doesn’t make a sound
He instill our Faith
Nourishes the Earth
Enriches our hearts
Helps us through struggles
The Holy One is all that and more
He is the one we should not ignore
He is everything that one should explore
He is everything that one should hope for
The Holy One is the comfort for our soul
Look up, watch and you will see the Behold.

Well let’s peek into the kitchen of Lucy and Ethel to see the baking of this 7 Layer Cake
On cue in take
Ricky is having a party in his home regarding his 10th Anniversary in managing the Night Club called “A little bit of Cuba”
He wanted something fancy
Did he say fancy?
There’s no telling what Lucy has baked into that cake
Lucy and Ethel are busy baking away
But somehow that cake is going to cause people to make a quick getaway
Now remember, this is not the Pillsbury bake off, but should say “Revenge with back off”
At this point, you are allowed to cough
The cake is in the pan and ready for the oven
As the cake is baking, Lucy and Ethel are entertaining the guest
This is not at any one’s request
While Lucy talks about Hollywood and show business, do you smell something burning?
Luc y shouts, “My cake!”
But was it too late?
Lucy and Ethel rushed to the oven
The cake was half burned and didn’t rise
Why am I not surprised?
Meanwhile, what is Lucy and Ethel going too serve for dessert?
Lucy says, “I have a plan”
Let’s open a can of fruit cocktail and add it inside the burned cake
But Ethel stats with, “How will the guest respond?”
Lucy proclaims, “Who cares, they can’t know the cake was burned
Well the dessert will be served
Think on eat at your own risk being observed
As Lucy and Ethel serve the cake, suddenly one of the guest get sick from eating the cake
Lucy of course starts to cry
Yet the baking that cake was a good try
Eat at your own risk said I.

I saw an ad “Eat like royalty”
Food that will overpower your stomach
Your waist will spread out
The mirror will show you what I am talking about
The sight of so much food
Imagine all the dessert and everything else that would include
Clothes that will never fit again
It would be more take out and wish on being thin
Your dreams in what it was originally like then
Exercise would be in total order
You would be sweating until the weight came off
It would be work than any cough
The idea of sticking the finger of royalty out
The riches of wealth in what I am talking about
Food for thought then after stomach relief of sought.

Disturbed
It was what was said
It wasn’t how or when
It surrounded that moment
I knew I was insulted being a put down
There was no encouragement
I am a ship out in the ocean in never reaching the shore
My mind on me
Let the sunrise carry me to new journey’s
Explore what my heart deserves
Turn days into moments
My virtues have meanings
They were walked on and blown away
Felt like I didn’t belong
Wrong place always at the wrong time
Standing on the shore with so much uncertainty
Doubt set in
My assurance had no endurance
But no more
I see a better life
Full of promise
True honest
I always knew who I was
It was expressed so
No although
I am a person of prosperity
My reality
Negativity voices have loss
I am the force that rules
Can’t and won’t stop
My journey has begun
There’s no end
Horizon beyond

Walking back through time
Life into eternity came to a dreadful end
It was destruction 20 years earlier then
Our lives were changed
9/11 being remembered shall remain
Terrorist thought they had won
But the United States will never be outdone
Ashes upon Ashes
Dust upon Dust
We rose in accomplishment being victory
Commitment in honor to all the Loss
We came together united being a force
We honor all the Loss
Their lives forever in our hearts
Life can be only a second and moment in time

Heaven watched
Souls descended
The Loss voices telling us to continue to strive
Don’t let defeat take control
Stand tall, strong and be bold
This is the 9/11 story ever told
Tomorrow seemed like a yesterday
But 20 years was captured as a moment in our lives
Possibility surfaced as a reality
Our hearts were united as one
We wondered if we ever build and overcome again
Tears upon tears among families in their Loss
But the U.S. conquered and saw that the ashes of darkness wasn’t going to stop the U.S. in seeing the guiding light
Heaven led us
Faith was the hope
Today, it is our daily cope
We are never alone
The Lord knows all our names well
We are all witnesses of 9/11 to tell
The Loss Spirits are looking down on us in pride that we are still standing
It took might and determination
Their spirits are our courage
Their strength being nourish
Their life our beginning
We will always remember and never forget
There will always be a question of regret
Have no fear
God is always near
Echoed souls want us to continue to preserver
Their spirits are alive in all of us
We are their legacy
We are their dreams of commitment
Our determination being a destination
It is for us to continue to live until our tasks are complete
Continue to stand on U.S. Solid Ground
Imagine the echoed voices having a sound
Live, stand and always reflect
Live with a purpose, and make it personal for a reason
Relish tomorrow being a day
Stand and be strong each and every way

From the very start, it was what schools to chose
There were so many schools you became confused
You were looking for schools that would meet your academic agenda
Beginning from the start and graduation achieved
But it was hard, but you sacrificed
Yet you asked if education was worth it, and the answer is yes
Look at you now you are in your Cap and Gown
Tomorrow arrived being your present day
Today is what I call “DEGREE DAY”
It took persuasion and certainly a lot of praying
Heaven’s wonder and education going yonder
But you proved to yourself that you can achieve
You are the witness to that
This is nothing to sneeze at
As you walk out of the educational institution doors being not for the last time, but always keep education in mine
As you go out always remember to come back
Whether it be education continuing or just encourage students
But you are the mission that education does happen
Success seems far off
Yet it’s closer than you think
Now education has pushed you in the career moving forward  mode
Decisions upon Decisions
What career should I chose?
Where your talent lies you shouldn’t be confused
It will be challenging and discouraging
Yet with your ability to present
It will be your educational institution that you shall represent
You are prepared to step out
You know the concepts from theories that everyone will be talking about
Apply and do your very best
Success will be your testimony in confess
However, except nothing for less
Your educational institution achieved and you are their Scholar
There are no goodbyes, but a commodity of excellence being an everlasting good try.

Guns and more guns need to be put down
Bullets should be replaced with education being the sound
It’s time to become a success
Yet it’s up to our young people to put that to the test
Their testimony surrounding confess
Everyone has capabilities to learn
However, one must adapt to theories forming concepts
Imagine having a college degree for all to see
Having confident being your own decree
The movement of action in making education what it should be
A mind is a terrible thing to waste
But the key is to make education your base
Former President Barack Obama had the right idea, “You Can”
But the new continued motto, “You shall Until”
A young man at a United ***** College Fund Raiser said this vital point, “Blacker the college Sweeter the education”
Education being the unity, but bring back to the community
Determination in step out and explore
Seeing one’s horizon but beyond the shore
A college education is an opportunity being a chance
Knowing the theories is how one will advance
Higher Education means being one step ahead
But the opposition wants minds to be misled
Prove to yourself what education can do for you
It’s a journey being a must to go through
Achievers such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Medgar Evers, Dr. Maya Angelou and scores of others
They instilled the passion in how to achieve, and determined education was what they were going to receive
They were ready no matter what
Fasten your educational seat belt as you will be taking off into Higher Learning Institutions in education beyond measure
Education is, but hold tight to the learning saddle
It might seem like a battle
But the end rewards is succeed
Slavery that was while be came destined for education now
One word leads to a complete sentence
One’s thoughts illustrates the understanding
Adaptability of the concepts gained
Long lasting knowledge is what will remain
UNCF philosophy, “A mind is a terrible thing to waste”
But the mind must be ready to spiral and absorb
But education and knowledge work all accord.

Eenie Meenie miney Moe
But you don’t really know
It’s up too me to narrate being the show
Life having it’s down and with an although
A man being in total despair
Having no direction beyond his own compare
A man loss with no directional finder
It’s a case of being confused
But at some point in the man’s life he was used
However, the man used other people in his lifetime
Some might consider him like everybody else
Yet the man is of human nature

Now help me in giving this man some sort of insight
But it must be inspiration in getting him out of his plight
Right now he is in a dark tunnel needing light
Trust in above
It’s Heaven too think of
Inspiration that comes from a total high
Your question needs no answer as of why
Just give heaven a try

As I narrate further, the man was once married, but he also cheated on his wife
Now for that, he deserves no advice
The man and his Wife would often argue and Shout
Curse words after another I am talking about
So his Wife told him to pack his bags and whatever belongings he could carry went with him on the pavement which became his home
But now he is alone
Well maybe not totally alone in the sense of physical presence

The man’s loss base with family and friends
However, the question is, will the Man’s life ever mend
No, we are not at the end
So what words of encouragement do you think I should give other than what I said already
Prayer is priority
Life is the reality
Look to the skies with a Man ever so wise
Within life, there is always a surprise
It will be a turnaround with a new sunrise
Tomorrow is understanding with a suppose too be
So look up Man, and you shall see.
