Receding Generation

Definitions can be hallucinogenic. If "pro" means "in favor of", and "con" means "against/negative", why would we look up to CONgress for executive decisions? If "white" symbolizes purity and innocence, why is that race of people responsible for the enslavement and torture of millions? If "black" is symbolic of evil and darkness, why is that race of people classified as one of the most spiritual and religious? Logic and sense play hand in hand. Simple definitions causing distortion of judgment. No wonder these people knew not what drudge meant.  The man in the mirror couldn't be more disappointed in this generation. What have we become? We're offensive to respectable people, and we don't even care. We're insensitive to our generation, and we're not even aware. We're no longer spiritual; all superficial. We really think all of our belongings, money, and accolades will keep our spirits full? The cost of fast paced living is the exchange of the soul. He never wanted this for you, but in the end, his holy heart will grow cold. Do what you want, and silence your plea... when judgment day comes around, don't look up to me.

Slick Talk

Judging you? Only God can do that... I'm enthralled and appalled that you've even given me that much attention in your mind to care. I'm not saying that you're too good, I'm just saying that a diamond in the rough goes unrecognized for other sentiments and treasures... And I'm not trying to come off to strong, but the way you're looking at me, isn't exactly proving me wrong. Now the time it takes for us to play these games could be time better spent on more important endeavors. I know you're taught to distance yourself from strangers, but I'm introducing myself right now so you can kill those thoughts of uneasiness. Now if you're expecting to be concatenated with my wages then you can miss me with that devious cognition. I'll obtain this drink in your favor for now, but 'before you get more out of me, I need to get inside of you'. There's no admiration without reciprocation, and no elation without flirtation. I'm not trying to make you out to be an anatomical sales associate, but I have to be cautious. "Your mouth may water, your teeth may grit, but none of these finances you will get". - J. Berry

Late Night Thoughts

There are times when I despise those with no conscious. Is this the belligerence of my insolence, or the definition of my insecurities? To live with no sound judgment and not care... This can be astounding. To have no inner monologue and broadcast thoughts, feelings of hostility, and blunt sentiments to the collective. Love is the exception to my disposition. I just want things to be easy for you, but if I have to conform and be at ease for you, then I'll have to say 'be easy' to you. I wish it weren't this way. Intimate partnerships should never rewind; Better leave all stress behind because the mind will become entwined in thoughts from the hind that will lead to detrimental acts in their prime. You are the fruit of my ambition, and I'll definitely pray for us if you're not in tune with wishing. A true philosopher rests between his words. My mind is what you deserve; anything less is just absurd like a sentence with all verbs. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him"... As for your man, and those before him, it's easy to adore them until I come and you ignore them. I don't want to be your king; not trying to be your everything; just want to be he who inspires your dreams. - J. Berry

The Confused Note Write

Many people do not know a lot of things that I like to do; (not even close family and friends). I've always loved poetry. This is the first poem of many that I will release periodically:

I'm prioritizing. Many fathers are making marks in the world instead of making bonds in the homes. Many men love a woman until she's suffocating resulting in spiritual death that is abrupt. To challenge is to live life's full potential. The frivolous minded road to success is treacherous. I thank God for dexterous females. My significant other still to be found. Our title is absent. Living in the midst of the unknown yearning to achieve higher levels of euphoric efforts through one another. Silly it seems. I laugh at the face of uncertainty. What is the reason for this consternative humor? Even I know not the answer. The understanding is gone because the love and affection are gone. I'm elated that few can see where I stand on this. Others disregard me in spite. We all have an ego; but does that mean we're egotistic? I beg to differ on the thought, but that is of no importance. I wish to concatenate our past with our gradual development. If you don't know, then you won't grow; you don't reap what you don't sow; and if you follow slow, then I must go. Ani ohev otach... The language of Gods people. We all come from different settings, so whose to say we're all equal?
