I don not know how to feel
My broken heart will never heal
It is bruised, broken and shattered
From the awful way you battered
It to pieces blow by blow
I wish you could only know
How you cut me painfully
You dug my heart out so deeply
With a sharp sarcastic tongue
Each new word you told me stung
How could you do this to me
I was being so friendly
Each day helping all I could
My heart trying to be good
All my friendship pouring out
Talking every day about
Any problems or troubles
Always be there on the double
When you called, no hesitation
Bringing so much inspiration
To a life that needed it
Till one day I felt like sh--
You just threw me to the curb
Acting weird and so absurd
Putting up a wall, you blocked
Me out-- I was stunned and shocked
At the way you looked and acted
Saying our friendship was retracted
To no longer come around
You stomped my heart in the ground
What made you do a reverse
I was there through the worst
Times-- pulling you through each one
Now your yelling we are done
I really do not want to go
When you hit me with a blow
Of anger, violence and hate
Your eyes are saying it's too late
Go away-- do not return
Your sad red eyes start to burn
With tears your starting to cry
Slamming the door on me -- WHY ????
What would cause you to end
The loyalness of a true friend
If there's one thing to remember as you travel life's highway
We're all made of the same stuff
Bones, skin, hair, and smashing good looks
Oops sorry, not everyone is blessed with good looks like this dude
Mummy and Daddy's genes combined
For an extraordinarily handsome specimen of male virility
Had to fight the girlies off with a big stick
I know, I know, shouldn't be complaining... right!!!
Some of us just have to endure these minor inconveniences
Hollywood movie stars have much the same “problems”
Have to admit, at first it was very flattering
But that soon wore off and it's now quite a nuisance
Having to sign autographs every time I step outside the door
Guess it's the price us over the top handsome folks have to pay
For the adulation of the adoring throngs
You may ask, “IS THIS GUY SMOKIN' UP?”
Sure sounds kinda whacked out to me, I must say!
Aww! But he's got such a sweet heart
Hang on, hang on, I'll soon be back to my humble self again
I'm sorry... it ain't easy being humble you know!
My tongue is planted firmly in my cheek!

How do you like it when it can happen to you?
A lot of times we go about our business
and think things such and such
can never happen to us
Such as losing a job, a family member
or some tragedies that can only happen
somewhere else
Not in my town
Not in my family
Are you sure about that?
Before you look on disdain at some other persons
Take a good look at yourself
Are you that fortunate?
Always free from burdens
from the travesty of life?
Be considerate will ya?
They may not be where you are at
as they may not have a choice
Things happened
- The cycles of life
- Good choices turned bad
Who knows?
They wouldn’t be where they are at
if they can help it
The looks you give today
may be what you will receive tomorrow
Give
Be kind
Lend a helping hand if you are able
Things will return tenfold to you
Sometimes don’t expect anything in return
The world is too big for you and me
And the problems are so vast
But it takes you and me and everyone
to fix it, to find solutions
It starts small and it will become big
It will not come overnight
But we will get a big chunk out of it
One thing at a time
Do what you can
Start where you are at
Change
Start with yourself
Ourselves
And go outward
That is how you change the world
Don’t talk
Just do
And see what God do
It's easy to set the goal, and even put the process in motion, but continuing to push forward through struggles and frustration can require a shove to help draw out that emotional leverage. ~ Leigh Wilson
Emotional happiness is a goal everyone would like to reach
but attaining that destination is not something anyone can teach.
The use of leverage is a viable solution to ignite the flames of fire,
ones to use as sparks to light the way to have the life we desire
There are several emotional concepts that I label after reflection
that can motivate us and others to live life without objection
Pride is usually thought of as a trait for which we shouldn't strive
but it can also prove to be a useful tool that can keep hope alive
for it can take a look at goals that were achieved or things done right.
A point worth making; it opens a window giving slivers of foresight
Joy is an emotion everyone feels when a goal is accomplished
Any lever can be used to amplify an advantage that can be wished
Something as simple as talking with others can make joy a reality
It's a resource to change a behavior or attitude; not a hyperbole
Hope allows us to have expectations of a life that we find fulfilling
But life often pushes back with frustrations that could use distilling
That's when we pivot, as a lever to make struggles less intimidating
By facing problems head on, seeking solutions, instead of placating
The fear factor dwells inside everyone when feeling uncertainty
or an immediate threat, but it can be levered with a bit of diversity,
a change in some areas of our lives where we experience less stress
The more advantages we can obtain, we'll feel threats much less
Anger is perhaps the biggest obstacle to having emotional well-being
but used as a leverage, it can be used as a key that allows the freeing
from threats that we experience, disrupting our sense of independency,
enabling us to feel self-compassion and toward others with clemency
Then there is the prospect of shame, used to encourage and persuade
ourselves and others to avoid an action or a decision, wrongly made
when we, or others might find out about a socially undesirable action.
Leveraging devices give gentle shoves that lead to emotional satisfaction.
I loved you once, loved you twice and went on to love thrice,
My water love is now frozen into a pillar of clear ice;
And through it I see the horizon that stretches in your soul,
I sail on loving you.
And I arrive this destination to love you.
And again I have to go to another destination to love you.
I look into your eyes and I see thousands of love destinations waiting
I am troubled because I don’t know how I may love you.
For my loving is not truly loving you,
But trying to love you through loving you.
Loving you like there is nothing better to do to you,
As a comet trying to fly to the end of your universe.
And though I try make sure to find you
You make it seem like a dream when you smile.
how long
it been a while
yes a long while
for how long will the old still exist in today
this old bitter life in the thirdworld
may be you and i can change them
is new year again
everyone with dreams again
everyone in need of change again
hope this year it comes
how long
i have been away for a while
somany have change but not humanity
i see same this long while
i hope in this year it will change
it been so long this problems everywhere
so this new year i hope change can have a chance
how long
it been too long
this challenges of our every day circle life
some say this year will be better
some say they see more challenges ahaed
some say this year is not for the poor
some say this year will be better for africa
despite all
happiness , peace, goodhealth
i see they forgot
how long
weak up
stand up
shake off all negativity
is a new day
rise up as the sun
for not too long
the bad must be good again
happy new year
to everyone

Batteries for this,
Batteries for that,
Batteries that are for him,
Batteries that are for her.
Batteries that are charged,
Batteries that can be re-charged
Batteries that can no longer be charged.
Batteries that are flat,
Batteries that are thin,
Batteries that are fat,
Batteries that are round.
Batteries that are never used,
Batteries that are over-used.
Batteries that are more efficient,
but a different shape or size,
that means that tools that were once favorites,
now help the waste pile to grow.
Batteries that are only for brand related tools,
to increase the brand revenue.
Batteries that cost lives,
Batteries that save lives,
Batteries that can cause fires
Batteries that can be used in things to fight fires.
Batteries that are going to recycling,
Batteries that are going to be a recycling issue,
Batteries that are for toys that are never played with,
Batteries that are worth more than the toys.
Batteries that are attached to broken cords,
Batteries for instruments that play by themselves,
Batteries for computers,
Batteries for commuters who prefer not to converse with others,
And miss seeing the beauty that is all around them.
Batteries for clocks and watches.
Oh my kingdom for an hold fashioned watch,
That winds up instead of down,
That will keep perfect time,
Until I am no longer around,
Without the need to charge batteries to my account,
With interest charges that continue to mount.
Only then will my faith in the human race,
To consult for a better result,
For my view to become more positive than negative.
You are remarkable.
It shows in all your ways.
You're kind and you're considerate.
You brighten someone's days.
You think about important things.
You're careful with your thoughts.
Not shallow, vain or idle,
You're special just because,
You deeply care for others.
You're wise and try to help.
You offer help and hope to folks.
Not pre-occupied with self.
You don't bad mouth your neighbor,
Don't let problems hold you back.
You believe in possibilities.
You never turn your back,
On anything unfinished.
Folks like you are few.
You make good things happen,
Just by being you.
What if, at the end of this poem,
Were all of the answers you have sought;
The solution to all your problems,
Providing clarity to all you’ve thought?
What if, in this poem’s very last verse,
Was wisdom so profound,
It simplified the universe?
What if, in the stanzas you find below,
Was information providing you
Everything you want to know?
What if, all of this were true? …
Then reading this poem no further,
Would be my advice to you.
Answers shouldn’t be handed us;
Wisdom so easily gained;
Riddles shouldn’t be solved,
Without some learning and some pain.
So search for your own answers;
Seek information from living life;
Let experience provide you wisdom,
Don’t rely on tales from some ole wives.
Now you’ve come to the end of this poem,
And no answers did you find,
But I hope that by reaching the end
You have a clearer mind.
He seemed frustrated
His grasp of learning
traditional wrestling
and what is called new
-age wrestling and
Modern style. He approached
Both his gimmick and style
as his personality. He saw
Himself as a grappler with all
The advantages. Those with
height, weight,agility, power and
speaking ability. Seemed to
Out shine him.But he always
managed to get through obstacles
without problems. When he was
gifted with a World championship
Opportunity, used basic manuvering
and skill to achieve his goals.World
Heavyweight champion are the last
words he heard, when a man rushed
the ring and " Chopin Cussgrinned"
( Oreintal sleeper) to the mat, he said
he didn't see him at all.
They wanted me to change my style
and the way I approached bouts. I
Remember coming to the locker room
and one of the undercard Grapplers
looking at me and saying " oh it's you"
I thought these men as satan's trying
to make me loose my composture.
This know named buster, used a taped
Brass knuckle and left me semiconscious
In the locker room. I had to forfeit my
Title from a officials decision when I
Couldn't answer the ring announcers
request to be in the ring. They held the
title up for nine days, giving both me and
the number one contender co- ownership.
I won but that jerk got the best of me.
And until I hired a manager I never even
Knew his name!
