At times I've been known to share with anyone who'll listen
my belief on what people might say as they meet their fate
you know... perhaps a piano falling on their head
or the proverbial bus about to run them over
Yes, i've often thought that statistics should be kept
as they'd undoubtedly prove me right
my opinion is that in all probability
"Oh no" would probably come in a respectable second
while the more likely and less polite form "Oh sh*t"
would be the gold medal by a landslide

A Proven Fact
Miracle Man
4/19/2024
Politicians will lie,
to hold on to their power.
But in election years,
they’ve learned how to cower.
They couldn’t care less,
about the rank and file.
Though they’ll face a camera,
and flash you a smile.
They pass out some freebies,
and each other backbite.
Many have managed,
to overstay their invite.
Some admit they’ve never,
worked an actual job.
Most are slicker than Teflon,
on a glass door knob.
But all aren’t this way,
though I’m seeming to rush.
To paint all politicians,
with the same brush.
Democrat and Republican,
They can’t get along.
And when congress is convened,
it’s the next verse of song.

They call it a monster
Actually it is a gentleman
They call it a gentleman
Actually it is the boss
The call it the boss
Actually it is a soul
The scarcity of an individual,
The trembling of the feet
Leaves the spectators speechless
Honour the promise
The controlling of the heart beat
Leaves the body adjusted
Be proud of yourself
The arrival of the scarce individual,
They call it a monster
Actually it is intelligence
They call it intelligence
Actually it is modification
They call it a modification
Actually it is simplicity
The scarcity of an individual.

Molly maid in her stand for kids
Rattled the establishments cold line
2020 she said its wrong to mask
Young srudents in creative time
There is no science to prove its worth
Yet much to tell carbondioxide grinds.'
The waste of the lungs drawn back in
To damage health.' Every breath each time.'
And but a ploy, a gesture only.'
Caused division, and made kids lonely
Also lockdowns hit mental health
Drove down learning, it seemed so phony
Instead of causing mass immunity.'
Mad measures worked against all bodily
Continuity, to weaken en'mass was all it
Could ' and to achive better its known we
Should, seek exposure as millenia have proven
Balance elements and vitality against each ill
For sickness will come and they will go, our bodys
Are designed to compute; the very best defence.'
Why (didn't we know.?)

Before you condemn me, hear my side,
Don't be too quick to judge, before you decide.
I'm not a criminal, I'm not a thief,
Don't make me suffer for someone else's misbelief.
Prove me guilty before you judge me,
Don't make me a victim of society's decree.
I am not a scapegoat, I am not a prey,
Don't punish me for something someone else did and they got away.
I have a voice, I have a right,
To defend myself with all my might.
Don't assume the worst, don't presume,
Let's make the truth our only room.
I am innocent until proven guilty,
Don't let your biases make me a filly.
I deserve justice, I deserve respect,
Don't let your prejudice make me feel like a reject.
So, I plead with you, please listen to me,
Give me a chance, and you will see,
That I'm not what you assume, not what you hear,
Prove me guilty before you judge me, don't let your fear.

We can eye God with our eyes, of denial
we can feel God with our soul of belief
It is natural to sense God in all tiny things...
Impossible is not sight him
with so much presence....!
there is proof of blindness for such evidence
We proved his existence
not proving his inexistence... !

Not a child,
Not weak,
Hot and strong,
A syndicate is yet to happen.
Yearning to have a future,
Loving caring and in-no-cent,
Not mean,
But means good.
A girl,
So young - Very,
Wants to have it all,
She is tender, green and delicate,
Inwards, black - Dark,
Steps too fast for him.
A dark cloud forms,
Innocence hides danger,
Kindness turns wicked,
Goodwill turns evil,
Care becomes a flare,
Leaving the place Burning.
Blackmail!
Before he realised,
Blackmail!
Before things turn right,
Blackmail!
Innocence proven guilty as charged.
That's it,
The rule of law,
It runs the society.

The best things in life are saved for last,
It’s taken much heartbreak in my past,
For me to realize this,
Being with you is pure bliss,
I can hear a heartbeat coming from your chest,
I know you wont do me wrong,
You’re handsome and wise,
The most difficult combination to find,
You have a way with telling people what they need to hear,
And they actually listen to what you have to say,
You don’t believe me when I tell you that you’re amazing,
But I tell you anyway,
I know you believe that things do happen for a reason,
It’s proven to be true,
For every event and every heartbreak has leaded me to you.

Love don't cost a thing all I want is your heart
For I will not keep it in my pocket
But in a secret place for it is my lockbox
For your heart stays within my heart
Your heart is meant to be treasured like gold
Love isn't a toy so why play it like a game
Love is a four letter word with much more meaning when you give it back
For the action of love is of deeper power compared to when you say it
Save the word love until you actually mean it from your heart itself

I was the type of girl
Who never rejected guys
Until the horrid thing done to me
Someone I thought to trust
He Betrayed me
Left me on the floor to suffer deep pain
He stole my innocence
laughed while I yelled for him to stop
He punched me in the face
Told me not to tell anyone
If I did I would be dead
I laid there in silence
While I bled on the floor
I couldn't go home now
Locked up in his house
No one to see me
Days went by rapidly
The police searched everywhere
Finally they gave up
For I was never found

today it has been proven that our justice system does'nt represent justice. it just
fixes things the way they want things to be fixed. today a murderer was judged not
guilty and will soon walk free from the crime that they commited. they may have
escaped man but they still have to face God. they should have paid man. maybe it
was an accident with choloraform. but everything else she did added it up to
murder. today a jury assasinated justice just like james earl ray killed martin luther
king and just like lee harvey oswald killed john f. kennedy just like john wilkes booth
killed abraham lincoln and all i can say is et tu brute to our judicial system. i must
admit the defence did their jobs well but now they know they did it too well because
the eyes of true Justice will be apon them for their crimes. and so this is how the media planned on how to keep milking this cash cow indefinatly.

The dead are proven dead
So if waking in the night
You find them standing at your bed
Explain its passe so trite
For them to presume to appear that way
And completely irrational to ask you
To believe they have something to say
Tell them its redundant for them to
Arise like questions from the past
When in this day and age
We know analysis has cast
Olympian Gods into a cage
Of complexes from which appear
Any hero's unnatural rebirth
Projections of our childhood fear
They only SEEM to walk the earth
Haunting through the dreams we share
While dreams of dead men cease
Tell them phantoms are simply unaware
That Chronos swallowed Greece
They cannot stand and cannot speak
Their mouths are filled with grave
And flesh is strong -- spirit weak
Reason alone can save
Let faith in Science calm your fears
And come to your relief
Cover up your eyes and ears
And cling to your belief
