1.
Who sees the roles that we play on each other
Who knows how to be their own way
Who seldom reviews how it used to get done
Who plays the role of the fool.
2.
I have my family to protect
With my fortune and
My soul to protect
With my beliefs, but what if,
Someone were to come up to me
And ask about my neighbor
Across the street.
3.
Are we inside a religious ideology
battle of the minds, will, and spirits
Or, are we simply receiving our just
rewards from God for being
For being the type of society that
merits His displeasures. Do, we think
as a group of Sunday School
Christians, we can stand up
To those who are determined to
actually die for their beliefs, or do
We think as modern Christians that
our way of life is not at stake.
4.
Bring me down to your level
If you will and explain it to me
As though I were not as smart as you,
Because in so doing, you will
Teach yourself how to be.
5.
My eyes are fixed upon a goal that
Was written down for me long ago,
But, what if I fail in my attempts
To be all that I can be and need
To ask for a little forgiveness.
6.
Desires reach into my subconscious
Pushing or pulling me into a direction
Where I am not sure that I want to be,
But, one that I nonetheless find extremely
Interesting because it is one never to be
fully attained by me, as it is only a game.
7.
What are my goals for the future
Other than to survive my job…
Do I want to accomplish something
great or wonderful that will live on after-
wards, or do I just want to provide for she
who has decided to be with me through
the ups and downs of my ending career.
8.
I am not the one who will get to the top of the ladder
In this world of corporate American politics, as I do
not seem to have the killer, lying instincts of those
who have actually come before me in their pursuits
to control this life instead of the for which they will die.
9.
It is difficult not to dislike
The lady with whom I live
As her thoughts drift only
To those with whom she
Does not have to live.
10.
If it were not for all the errands that
She is willing to do and those big
Breasts of hers, I am not sure how
Much I would want to share my life
With someone so selfish towards me
That she daily seems to really be.
11.
My life with you has been challenging
And the more it seems that I convey my
Worries that you will find another, the
More you withdraw your love for me
Making me wonder even more about
You finding another man more suitable
12.
You have no respect for me or so it seems, yet,
you also seem to want me in your life; So, I
wonder if it is just to control me with Your will
and persistence until you get exactly what it is
that you want and, I just happen to be in the
wrong place at the right time in your life for what
you needed, and that love has nothing to do with it.
13.
There is no one in the tunnel
No one minding the store
No one tending to the mental
Events for who I am today.
14.
Will we have peace in my lifetime
Or is peace an illusion…
And, what is the essence of peace
So that we will know it when it arrives…
Is it peace on earth, good will towards
all men or an ending of all wars and an
Acceptance of all peoples regardless of
Lifestyles, politics, or religious ideologies.
15.
Are you sexual in nature
Do you have what it takes to
Do whatever it is that I want to do,
Or are you molded in your
Beliefs to respond to that
Which is normal and true?
16.
All of my years seem to collide with
Each other in this stage and age in my life,
and I am left without aany understandings
or beliefs as to what truth as we want to
know it today, really means to us.
17.
What is the Kingdom of God, is a recent question
that has been asked of me, and I am not sure how
To answer that question even if I knew the answer…
Is it an actual place, or simply a state of mind, or
is it where the spirit, our essence, goes once all life
And blood has been drained out of our bodies?
Can we have this Kingdom while we are alive?
Does this Kingdom live inside each and every one
Of us, but we just don't know how to access it?
18.
Can you tell me how I should really
Live my life, or will you tell me how
You think I should really live my life,
Because I want you to know I know.
19.
Are you willing to
Claim my thoughts as your own or
Do you have your own?
20.
Do you struggle with the truth as I have done
all my life or do you simply accept what others
may tell you as the truth that they think or
believe should be your truth?
Do you understand the nature of thought and
how one should formulate one's own beliefs
is one is to be truly free to accept or reject
the nature of God's Will on Earth?
21.
Where does it say that I have to live
My life as you would want me to;
Where does it say that I can only be
Like you if I am to stay with you, and
If this was your nature, why did you
Not tell me at the very beginning?
22.
I can see that you believe that my
Life, desires, wants, and needs,
Should subordinate themselves to
Whatever it is that you want, simply
Because you think that it should.
23.
Can you not love me
If I do not live my life
As you want me to.
24.
You do not take the time to notice me
As you once noticed me when we were
First together and you were trying to
Steal me away from my wife, my dear.
25.
Am I the only one who really cares
About the future of this country, or,
Are there others, who want to protect
Our way of life, not just for now, but
Our children, their children and all
Of the generations that will follow.
26.
What is wrong with Lesbian/Gay
Couples other than what we think
is stated in the Bible…
And, is it against these unions
because they are wrong or simply
because they negate the
perpetuation of the human race.
27.
It is ironic in a way that those
Who are violently against something
Somehow easily change their minds
When the something that they
Are against happens to them.
28.
God has made it possible for me
To be who I am today and seems
To be carefully orchestrating the
Direction that I take presently.
29.
Do your thoughts coincide with mine or do they
Mingle somewhere else in space and time…
Do they see the future or are they still trying to
Predict and explain the past as they think it should be
Based upon their interpretation of what God wants.
30.
I look towards you to be my source of inspiration
I look towards you to be my guiding light
I look towards you to be my strength of will
I look towards you to guide me to my rebirth.
31.
Why do you bestow your
grace upon me when there
are others more deserving?
I am not worth the time
even though I am trying,
so open the door to them
and allow them to move
into your light.
32.
My life has almost lived out its usefulness
At least in my first career attempt and
My retirement should offer me my second
Attempt that will lay the foundation and
Prepare me for my life after death.
33.
Truth is in the eye of the beholder
Or in the soundness of reality, as
Long as what we perceive as reality
Is all that we think it is and not
Simply another illusion through
Which we all must eventually pass.
34.
Is today the day where half the month
Has passed beneath our view and grasp
And now we must hurry forth if we are
To put purpose into the second half.
35.
Can you give me back
What I gave to you a
Few years back, or do
You think my love was
Yours to keep forever.
36.
In the task ahead, our purpose can only be
Offset by the progress that we are making
Not by the failures that we have discarded.
