2012...

So many people are making this end-of-the-world thing so negative. The end of the world can be so positive. I like to look on the bright side of world destructive and find the silver linings of the planet disappearing. Below are a few things I think give the end of the world some modest appeal.

1. Oprah will be as broke as the rest of us. When the world goes away the OWN network goes bankrupt because its equipment and network are gone and Oprah goes back to wearing her casting clothes from the Color Purple.

2. no repayment of student loans. A lot of people worry about going into default and the consequences from the gov't, but rest assured once the world ends you can sleep easier not worrying about the Dept. of Education.

3. Willow Smith and Cymphonique will be ushers. They won't be allowed to sing solos in Heaven's choir nor live off their parent's success. Just white gloves and silence for these two.

4. Your baby's mothers can no longer fight you or each other. No more awkward holiday moments or lies about why it took you so long to pick up your son. All is peace in the end of the world.

5. Your kids will no longer ask you 400 questions a minute. They can ask the librarian in Heaven's (or hell cuz some of these youngins have made a real case for hell placement) library
and they can find out where baby's use to come from or why Daddy use to wear Mommy's clothes.

6. No tax audits. You won't have to scour the neighborhood for random unused SS#s or find an accountant that can cook the books for a modest fee. Taxation will be over and April deadlines will fade away.

7. Obama will not be president. I know a lot people will be relieved at this, but once the world ends Obama will not be in the White House. and fortunately Fox News wont be broadcasting so we don't have to watch the celebration and listen to the commentary once Obama is not president.

8. If you raised hell on earth, once the world ends you will continue to raise hell. Just literally this time. you will be raising the buildings in hell in a Lucifer brick masonry apprenticeship. It will be extremely hot, but as a hell-raiser you are used to adversity, good luck.

9. Cam Newton's payments will stop once the world ends. Some people are upset about these payments but once the world ends Cam and Minister Newton will have to find financial aid elsewhere.

10. The McRib will never come back. A processed remains of some animal pressed to look like the ribs of a porcupine will cease to exist. McDonald's will never be able to defrost this stuff every 6 mos & sell it as a consumer good. That is enough to root for the end of the world.

Gifts are Given...

Of course it felt like Monday. The chaos that normally ensues when you hit the jobsite was obvious today. Things were not going well. Things were late…jobs were not being done properly, but I pressed on as the minutes turned into hours. The stress of the morning was oppressive. The stress of the afternoon was even more stifling. But count it all joy. Normally the end of the week is smooth sailing. But normal is a cruel friend that only seems to show up when you don’t need him. I had to take a moment to just breathe and relax. In that moment God gave me a reminder – this job, this life, your assets are His gifts. God has allowed me to be in this position during this season and He is controlling this job. He gave it to me and in His wisdom He can take it away. It’s easy to stress or become frustrated over things that you think you control. But when you realize that you are where you are not because of your intelligence or hardwork or strength or resolve, then the picture becomes...

Ready for War...

The battle rages, from zero to infinite ages The blood drips, tasteless, and without fragrance The stench is foul, so flagrant, as I gaze in amazement The days when stars were a’blazing and Geico’s cavemen Saints blend in, defensive to sin, so they’re offensive to men Soul food’s not made in the kitchen my friend Visit with Him then ask for deliverance then Strap on the armor….you’re on a mission to win Dissent will come then as the demons are gathered And spring from the stronghold…but none of that matters I’ll take the Spirit and leave them all tattered Smashed into fine matter and leave their bones scattered Tell them stay off my lawn, equipped with Bibles and brawn Praising God with old songs and daring hellhounds to come Lucifer threw down his gauntlet, I’m dressed exclusive in blessings Satan made it to the playoffs…but heaven wins the series in seven Always testing, never resting, my God equipped me for stress And gave me resolve to keep living until He lessens my breath I’m imp...

Unknown to Many...

Cold breezes blow boldly, low feelings of losses No passion, no action, serene scenery glosses Tossed by swirling emotions, lonesome in this life Pretend strife is not visible like a bridegroom & no wife Because the standard is this, a man stands beside the Pit Can’t deny the riff as words of love die on my lips Tried & I tripped, fell over, but never in love’s shadow Tragic, no warm magic surrounded & I lost the battle Dazzled in my own light, not seeing the radiance of One So I traveled alone, not knowing I was only a torch to the Sun Deplored to run and falter, halted but I refrained to see Sought the other half of my soul, but she never came to me Remaining free, but true freedom lies in long hair locks That shimmer with womanhood and who holds a box In her bosom, for me and our union shall never part She will walk beside me and cherish my heart. As the silence from the keyboard dies miserably, Heather Headley croons “In My Mind” as though her soul had dined with ...
