Carl Jung Quote

If I Could Tell You

Time will say nothing but I told you so,
Time only knows the price we have to pay;
If I could tell you I would let you know.

If we should weep when clowns put on their show,
If we should stumble when musicians play,
Time will say nothing but I told you so.

There are no fortunes to be told, although,
Because I love you more than I can say,
If I could tell you I would let you know.

The winds must come from somewhere when they blow,
There must be reasons why the leaves decay;
Time will say nothing but I told you so.

Perhaps the roses really want to grow,
The vision seriously intends to stay;
If I could tell you I would let you know.

Suppose the lions all get up and go,
And all the brooks and soldiers run away;
Will Time say nothing but I told you so?
If I could tell you I would let you know.

W. H. Auden 

Who DO You Need To Remove?

No Weight Problem....Hot

He Died For You

I Know What You Mean

I Guess I Am Vintage.... :-)

Is It The End?

Beautiful

I.....What?

Start Being Nice...

Friday

School Days

School days, school days

where did the summer go

the beaches, festivals and summer love

time to get the backpacks ready

time to move on to the next grade

see old friends, meet new one

we all hate the first day, but love the last

no more sleeping late

now all we have is due dates

days of no work, now tons of homework

study, study study

all we dread is quizzes, but its good for the wizs

no late hangouts, no more all niter's

now we all worry about fighters

we all dream for summer to come

one by one the days go by

when is there a holiday

School day, school days

give me some school breaks

Open Letter

Misfits

There is too much, far too much
"Black on Black" crime,
So I can't help but ask,
Have you actually lost your mind?

Haven't we, as a people,
Endured enough sorrow and hate?
And haven't you yet learned,
That we, as a people must and should relate!

Was it not bad enough
The grief that others gave,
Or did you forget the cruelty and lies,
And the fact that we were slaves?

Did you also close your mind
To all that still stands against you,
So how could you even think to choose
Your Brothers and Sisters to kill and abuse?

Tell me, just when did you change,
Better yet, when did you lose your mind?
When did you stop caring for your people,
And forgot the art of being loving and kind?

Did you somehow forget the old saying,
"Together we shall stand"
You forgot too, that we are a proud people,
A proud people from the same homeland.

So remember you hurt us "all"
Even when you hurt or abuse just one,
Remember that is a Black man's daughter,
Or a Black Mother's son.

And tell me, what will you have to look forward to
When you have come up and aged in years,
For who will look after you when you are older
Now living alone and in fear?

Remember, one should seek to help, to teach,
To share in the spiritual growth of another,
For it is my strong belief,
This race can't be stretched much farther.

So please, rethink your way of life,
And return "Black" and to the natural way,
The ways of helping, caring, and teaching,
As it was done in our forefathers day.
