Macho Man Syndrome
Macho Man Sydrome

Women may have PMS,
But men have MMS
Macho Man Syndome

Not all men have this,
Plenty do and it makes life seem hard to exist
From Oil in Iraq
To Blood Diamond in Sierra Leone
Sooner or Later, Mother Earth will tell you
“Leave me the heck alone!”
Will you listen?
Of course not,
She'd have to glue your men together
Gray clouds with a dirty mist will make you surrender
When her eyes glaze at you

Sierra Leone - a Long Way Gone Book By Ishmael Baeh
South province where Mattru jong is located!
    
Intriguing issues as a young boy!
    
Escaped from drugs and the war!
   
Rebels – They don’t agree with the government and think    everyone is the enemy!
     
Ready to start over!
    
A lhaji close friend of Ishmael!
    
Lonely waking around by himself at the age of 12!
   
Evaluated but never understood!
  
One world with terrible memories!
    

Never being able to let go of  memories! 
           

Elated  at being with his uncle!...

Wars
Who gave you the letter of note . . .?
To fight a war in the name of GOD!
You ignorant fool!
How dare you?!

No such thing as a holy war
. . . Only sinful . . .
The devil’s hand.

Once cold steel:
Now warm fragments ripping at the skin
Oh God’s arts . . . destroyed
For what!?

How many more must die?
For the oil in the east . . .
For the gems of sierra-Leone
Or politics and greed . . .?

World leaders I spit in your face
For I bow to God
We have other wars to fight . . ....
