A blind man cannot see

A blind man cannot see

A blind man cannot see what your race is
or the color of your skin, so I started thinking
that maybe we should all be blind so that we
can start to and try to understand where it
was all of this hate and resentment that we
have against each other had really started and
when it might end. We are all stuck living here
together on this rock that revolves around our
sun with one moon, we are all of one race on
this one planet it is called the human race, do
you all not wonder why it is we all cannot just
get along? I often wonder to myself since we
are all stuck here on this little planet, fighting,
hating, stealing, raping, hurting, killing one another,
why cannot we just stop it and instead all
have some fun. We have babies being born
around the earth everywhere each and every
single day, only filled with innocence and love
so why must we teach our children to hate and
violence? Why must they learn to kill off all
the white doves, we have wars and are fighting
everywhere over religion, land, greed, and skin,
we all need to stop for a few brief moments
and think about why. Because we were all
born of one God, one single race called the
human race, on one planet, called Earth when
it all first began.
A deaf man cannot hear all of the hate that we
spew so maybe we should all be deaf so that we
never knew what the words sounded like the
beginning with:

"I hate you, nigger, cracker, Queer, spick, faggot,
chink, beaner, stupid, fatso, dummy and more we
all look exactly the same from the inside out, we
all have one heart, two lungs, two eyes, two ears
and a mouth that we can shout and scream all
about peace and love with goodwill towards all
men, that is what we really need to talk about and
not the color of our skin, for colors belong to
are rainbows, crayons, skittles not skin where you
are from, oh I think that you are dumb or some man
made religion. Do me a favor go out into the streets
and scream it out loud,

We are all of one planet that
revolves around one sun that
only has one moon all together
part of one race that would
be the human race and all
citizens of this earth.

When I close my eyes

When I Close my Eyes I might not be able to change the world and I might not be able to change your mind I might not be able to make you love me but I can dream about It when I close  my eyes late at night when I am living somewhere in my mind for  that is where  I go every chance  When I want to escape All the violence and the hate a place where you and I walk hand and hand Down the peaceful streets At night after our date A place that is filled with laughter and tears drinking margaritas on the beach with you while we are dancing in the rain where I always smile and I forget all the pain a place where peace has won the war and race matter not any more where we can all now dance out in the streets rich or poor now all live next door to door a place where the sun shines every day and there are no dark clouds anymore where there are no chains that bind us all a...

It has been 10 years since I wrote my first book.

  "A story of one man's epic love for his son who is not of his blood." One day I was woken up by a dream I think it was really a nightmare I was alone or so I thought, I was seeing shadows and I kept hearing voices whispering in my ear so I started listening and writing it down, I still do that today. That was ten years ago and with those words, I wrote my first book., The Battle Lost: Ryder's Birth, It was a whopping fifty-two pages each a separate piece of poetry with extremely bad grammar, misspelled words, and no punctuation I had a good friend go through it when I got it back there were so many red marks I flashed back to high school. It has been on Amazon's top ten Epic Poetry (Free) in the Kindle Store for ten years. Ryder is now eleven years old and doing awesome it really was an epic battle physically, mentally, and emotionally fought in Parker County, Texas. DNA does not matter if you love that child enough and I Proved that. Actually, Attorney Bethel T...

Happily ever after amen.

Happily ever after amen.  Every now and then you will meet someone that makes your heart begin to pound so hard that it feels as if it will break through your chest or crack a few ribs at best, as you can hear  your blood flowing through  your veins like a mighty river fed by the rains of angry massive wintkrms to the sea also making it hard to breathe as you start to feel the heat coming from somewhere down deep in your soul smoldering until you see her beautiful face then your heated passion takes control igniting a raging fire the is now burning out of control as it feels like it is two hundred fifty degrees and your boiling from the inside, as tears fall from your eyes as their sheer beauty is so bright it leaves you feeling blind, and when they look up and smile at you the oh so real feeling of panic hits you right in the face as you freeze up talking nothing but gibberish losing all concept of speech and losing control of your knees falling to the ground as if you w...
