If you say you're a Patriot, Act like one.
Questioning mine is an untruthful one.
An untruthful pursuit.
I'm related to George Washington, damnit!
I drink coffee like I'm a coffee bean bandit!
Is that not your cup of tea?
Is that why you f--- with me?

Truth is my truest mental addiction.
Truth is truly my affliction.
Do you dislike me;
because I bless the Sun like Egyptians?
The Sun...which one?
I shoot with words; you need a gun.
I write with heart and do it for fun.

I try to stay right and righteous.
News speaking nothing but hate; it incites it.
It invites it.
I seek to create peace and unity.
I seek to provide words, usefully.
They seek my stopping, usually.

I love my country's people, and yours.
Systems remove equals, creates whores.
Industrialism and business philosophies.
What can I say.....it's Ignorance obviously.

you take the day
tahe you lost the person
you ever cared about
for that minute
you think it has
came to an ending
to your life
but if you think
about it
it's only the beging
of a new thing
that makes you
stronger than ever

At the end of the road
When I look back and gloat,
I see that nobody's beside me
And the world is looking funny.
At the top of the hill
I feel an insecure chill,
I know I hurt my old relations
Maddened with my cruel obsessions.

Now I feel an ecstasy!
My fantasy to conquer destiny:
It might be thrilling me
But its really killing me;
And even if I know it all
I cant stop my thirsty soul,
From truly making a hole
In my heart’s innocent wall.


Its not complete, but I’m still working on it. I'll be submitting the finished product on 23rd December, or maybe on Christmas Day.

looking for helpful criticism on this short poem, thank you.


3 am

its 3 am and I'm still here
I've got to find a way out somehow
but its taking for ever
thought I'd be gone by now

I see things in the shadows
hear things in the air
but when I try to reach out
theres nobody there

nobody to guide me
or wait by my side
but I hear a voice in the silence
that wont let me subside

thought I'd be gone by now
but the end's nowhere near
sometimes an hour can seem like a lifetime
its 3 am and I'm still here


L.A.T.

As above.

Who had control of the French civil service after the defeat of Napoleon? How comprehensive was the control of French public life?

How did it return to total French control?

What the hell happened to de-rail Pearse's vision?

An anglophone Eire was not an inevitability. What happened between Independence and WWII that sealed the fate of Irish?

It is cycle related phenomena, you can keep peddling for a long time and this can also help about global warming, because by this you would love less speed so ( no more interested in cars) no hurry, no worry. I know that someday I would die but I wish that the answer of my own question should live with internet for years and years to come, Q: Does God Exist? (This question loomed in my mind for years and years, finally got answer in 1992) Answer:Yes, 100% yes, alas man's wisdom, just nothing, i am waiting the time when man will make a computer processor as complex as human brain.

For sure there are some beautiful things in life, I'm not so jaded to believe it's all bad. But for every smile and happy life story, there are at least equivalent sad ones. For every safe journey, there's a bomb going off somewhere, for every healthy baby, there's a dude in some alley about to pull the trigger. The world is a big, big place and murder, corruption, unfairness, and greed happen every day along with the rest. My question is, is God responsible for all this, too? Did God make it so one person is born with a disability, while another is blissfully unafflicted? Is he the one who allows one guy to inherit a million bucks, and another to struggle all his life for a decent meal? Or is it some one else? something else?
And even if so, why would God allow that? Unless he wanted it? And then, why the heck would he want it if it didn't have to be that way?
I'm just .. really curious to see what you have to say about this.

its late. i had to make up another one. not as good as the first one......tell me what you think:
The time is moving slow and
I am waiting for something new
Each minute feels like an hour
And I don’t know what to do
I wait for a new fantasy to conquer
As the Sandman seems to be coming early
To sprinkle his golden sands over my eyes
The clock stops and
Slowly
Slowly
Slowly
I drift off,
Close my eyes
And start to dream in Technicolor

"Illegal Spying"

HEY KIDS!
Have you heard of illegal spying?
Did you say no?... you must be lying!
They want to see you laughing, crying...
If you speak certain ways of certain things
they'll probably want you to feel like dying.
and so-called Patriots Act this way?
Don't want me to ask "why?", about Iraq...
when every day we hear them counting bags
bags of bodies...human beings
don't act like I'm the only one seeing
don't act like I'm the only one freeing
freeing from chains
seeing with brains
we see insanity
powerful figures in vanity
don't get me wrong, some are o.k.
but things aren't!
Losing freedoms men and women die for
these are the things I cry for

"What Type Of Man Are You?"

You say you're a man and all,
you stand with your hands on balls.
Stay out late, never answer when your girl calls.
What type of man are you?

While I'm asking the question;
make you want to grab weapons?
What type of man are you?
Asking guns to do;
What your hands can do?
Pull it on me, shoot me, I'll die;
peace sign on my hands for you.
Do you get mad if I stand to you?
What type of man are you?

Are you the type of man,
if your woman talks loud you raise your hand?
Is that you? Do you call yourself a man?
Do you talk all day, call your woman a *****?
Gossiping fools need to look in the mirror.
A man? Is that what you're seeing?
What type of man are you being?
Are you worthy of the title?
The answer to that is vital.
Are you the type of man,
that looks at Truth and sees a rival?
If laying hands on a woman
is a man that's you...
you deserve a real man laying hands on you.
That's what 2pac meant calling men bitches.
