"Wise men talk because they have something to say;
fools talk because they have to say something. Rev Run!"
there was a time
we live for strength and guidance
where your fellow man
protects
the love and support of
family and friends..
where your heart comes and mends ..
the hatred and brutality of men..turns it's face away from
looking
faithful and true...a child is born..
he grows to
become that faith and chritianity
of brothas and sistas
to love..
honor and trust..grow in wisdom..
togetherness above
all damage by sin...
the out in the world ..carries the germ..
a
sickness called ready ..
aim..firearms..a pistol ..loaded ..becomes
a life short of living...
while the penalties of killlin..
goes undone..
losing what was given ..
born in good health..leaves an obituary
without
a degree or diploma..
what's going on with this society..
how does one at 16..
wear the son of a human being...
once he hits
the streets..leaves home..
heads
out to school to learn discipline
and help himself as..
the rules..
becoming an adult..
never makes it 2 adulthood..
this is where
I am the truth..
again fighting the forces
of evil...
what carried me through..
like no other I claim as..pain and
heartache..
thinking I'm a friend..
with everyone I meet..again
I become
rescue..
saving myself from disbelief...
ignorance of
blind faith..sees
no defense to tolerate..
and then..
I THINK ABOUT LAST WEEK..
when I had to witness the eyes of my
first grand daughter..
Tatie..
leave to go to the funeral..
for a death that made no sense at all..
her classmate ..
a young man (13)..
was gunned down by a 16 year old rival..
the bad thing
about this
whole epitaph in process..
the trauma of my
grand daughters first ime in high school..
her girlfriend had just left
to go to Mc donalds..
where this same child ..treated her..
smiled coming
out the restaurant..
only to hug..
kiss him Goodbye..say..seeya tomorrow
turns and walks away..
then suddenly a gunshot ran out..
shes turns and
looks back..this smart..articulate young boy ..
who entered high scoll early
was gunned down ..
like a hunt for animal prey..I cried..
need to prtect my
granddaughter's sanity..
help us all...amen..CREATE...Sheila T Jordan...
