The Bull King

i once knew a bull from Dallas
who wanted to live in a palace
he tried everything
to be crowned king
and drink from a golden chalice

Unless the heart be good, it’s no great thing! I was watching, “O.J. Made in America” about O.J. Simpson. My parents grew up in Buffalo and he was my favorite athlete. I loved how he ran those touchdowns! He had the talent and the drive. But something in his heart wasn’t right. Never knew he left his wife and two kids for 18 year old Nicole. Nicely written Bull by the way ;)

Thank you Kim. Actions do speak louder than words. Sports and celebrity is alluring but our real heroes are our families who struggle every day to feed , clothe and love us. Sincerely, the kind words you have given me here are worth much more than a home run, touchdown or a line in a movie. You words have substance and real meaning.
