I am a Storyteller, first and foremost. This is my blog for poetry, prose, stories, excerpts of my novels and videos. Life poetry, prophetic poetry, poetry for all genres. I think you'll find yourself here if you read long enough.
ODE TO WOMEN ENTWINED AROUND AN APPLE TREE SATAN SAID TO EVE: "WOULDST THOU LIKE AN APPLE FROM MY GOLDEN APPLE TREE?" AND EVER SINCE THE APPLE WOMANKIND HAS BEEN BLAMED FOR ALL CALAMITIES AND EVERY KIND OF SIN. WHENEVER WE MAKE SMALL MISTAKES IT'S TAKEN AS AN OMEN MEN ALL SHAKE THEIR HEADS AND SAY "NOW, THAT'S JUST LIKE A WOMAN." AND MEN BELIEVE THAT WE CONCEIVE CHILDREN JUST BY WISHING 'CAUSE THEY ALL SAY THAT MEN HAD RATHER BE OFF SOMEWHERE FISHING. HURRICANES AND SHIPS AND STORMS ARE CALLED BY FEMALE NAMES BECAUSE WE ARE SO WILD, THEY SAY AND DIFFICULT TO TAME. EVERY TIME YOU STUMBLE ON A DRUNKARD BY THE WAY HE'LL TELL YOU 'TWAS A WOMAN THAT TURNED HIM OUT THAT WAY. WOMEN MAKE MEN DRINK, THEY SAY AND GAMBLE, STEAL AND DIE WOMEN BREAK THEIR HEARTS OF GOLD AND NEVER EVEN SIGH. WHEN A BAD BOY GOES TO PRISON WITH ALL HIS CRIMINAL BROTHERS HE'S SURE TO SAY WHEN ASKED IN PITY "IT STARTED WITH MY MOTHER." POOR WOMANKIND HAS BEEN THROUGH MUCH SINCE EVE PUT US IN PRISON BUT AT LEAST SHE HAD THE GUMPTION TO MAKE THE FIRST DECISION. THE FEMALE IS THE STRONGER SEX AND I PROVE MY STATEMENT'S WORTH: IF MEN WERE MEANT TO BEAR THE CHILDREN THERE'D BE NO LIFE ON EARTH! WHAT WOULD MEN DO WITHOUT WOMEN THOUGH THEY DISDAIN US WITH SCORN DO NOT THEY REALIZE WE ARE ROSES AND THEY ARE ONLY THORNS? OF COURSE, WE NEED OUR COUNTERPARTS DON'T MISUNDERSTAND THIS SONG AND WE'LL COMFORT, LOVE AND KEEP THEM (TILL SOMETHING BETTER COMES ALONG.)
