A Real Man

A real man never cries but endures! When pains of the world rain upon him he endures! When the sky is dark and horrific moments come, he endures! Even on the edges of the deep dark deadly death, he endures! Not even the reckless trembling rifles of the wars shall make him cry! Nor the big bad blood sucking bats shall frighten him to cry. He is the saviour of his of his own territory and No other man shall rule his land on his presence, never! He is a god of his temple and a King in his royalty. Tell me not about the weak pathetic man, Who cries to death when impediments comes, Whose knees quiver and rumple when the worst come Who sold their manhood cheap with a piece of cake! Man is no man that cries without enduring, For endurance is what differentiates boys from man And boys shall not stay in the same territory with man.
