Spelling



My daughter plays on the floor
with plastic letters,
red, blue & hard yellow,
learning how to spell,
spelling,
how to make spells.

I wonder how many women
denied themselves daughters,
closed themselves in rooms,
drew the curtains
so they could mainline words.

A child is not a poem,
a poem is not a child.
there is no either/or.
However.

I return to the story
of the woman caught in the war
& in labour, her thighs tied
together by the enemy
so she could not give birth.

Ancestress: the burning witch,
her mouth covered by leather
to strangle words.

A word after a word
after a word is power.

At the point where language falls away
from the hot bones, at the point
where the rock breaks open and darkness
flows out of it like blood, at
the melting point of granite
when the bones know
they are hollow & the word
splits & doubles & speaks
the truth & the body
itself becomes a mouth.

This is a metaphor.

How do you learn to spell?
Blood, sky & the sun,
your own name first,
your first naming, your first name,
your first word.




can you analyze this stanza

Ancestress: the burning witch,
her mouth covered by leather
to strangle words.

A word after a word
after a word is power.


Sitting here, things in my head,
Of many nasty things I've said,
How people come and go,
When it's time, we never know.

Thinking of those lost in the past,
Friendships are meant to last,
But when they die and laid to rest,
You know you have lost the best.

Done many things in my life,
Had nightmares, been in strife,
Had pain, aches,seen things so gross,
None hurt as much as loss.

So if you have a loved one you hold dear,
Hold them tight and hold them near,
Cos when it's time for them to leave,
That time is when you will grieve.

But when that time of grief subdues,
And you no longer feel the blues,
You start to think of all the wasted years,
And then you break down in tears.

You want your friend, mate, buddy back,
You want to fight but no one to attack,
You blame god, yourself, everyone,
You loved them like a sister, brother, daughter or son.

The time to tell them you love them is now,
And now is the time to make that vow,
Nasty words are easy to say,
Just "I love you" is needed today.

To all my Family and friends and people who I care for "I LOVE YOU ALL"


I need two topics to write about. I am going to be using these topics to write similes. The poem below is the form that our poem should be in.
Willow and Ginkgo by Eve Merriam

The willow is like an etching,
Fine-lined against the sky.
Then ginkgo is like a crude sketch,
Hardly worthy to be signed.

The willow’s music is like a soprano,
Delicate and thin.
The ginkgo’s tune is like a chorus
With everyone joining in.

The willow is sleek as a velvet-nosed calf,
The ginkgo is leathery as an old bull.
The willow’s branches are like silken thread;
The ginkgo’s like stubby rough wool.

The willow is like a nymph with streaming hair;
Wherever it grows, there is green and gold and fair.
The willow dips to the water,
Protected and precious, like the king’s favorite daughter.

The ginkgo forces its way through gray concrete;
Like a city child, it grows up in the street.
Thrust against the metal sky,
Somehow it survives and even thrives.

My eyes feast upon the willow,
But my heart goes to the ginkgo.

If anyone has suggestions that would be great.


The Love Dance

I am in the centre of a thousand clover gazes, the flourishing vein-
On a dark, star fish pressed leaf. An ivy infant in a world of moss.
I slam my heels beneath the lantern kindled roof, shuttered from the rain,
And pass my elbow to a coal stained hand, we dance in the symmetry of a ribboned cross.

Amongst so many merry hearts, we sail down the wooden path,
Fringed with curls of laughter and pairs of withered hands that birth this love song.
Clapping together beside the trill weaving of the whistle's nectar laugh,
Side stepping down the clamour of captivated lovers, twisting through the throng.

I have fallen into the lover's spectrum of emerald waters, the lily spray on opal hearts,
Cleansing us both in a fall of moon dappled lace, frayed with the spark of rose thread.
The sun pours honey down onto our sweet, young souls. Blessing us in the sky's roaring arts,
For the sky is the sea and the sea is the sky! Dance with me! Dance until dead!

With music to embrace our shamrock hearts, we will delve into the waters-
The crystal marine sheets of thickened brine, o'er parchment fingers, locked in white spray.
I am the swiftly sailing maiden, the young heart of seven sun caressed daughters,
In this jubilation of brilliance I shall honour my father, who blessed me on this day!

Joyous, joyous are we beneath the bruise of thunder on a rolling sky,
Beneath a dew paled, amber cut sunrise that grapples for us in her locket of awe.
From the wondrous flames of autumn canopy, to the rippling waters of July,
I fell swiftly into this dance of love, bounding over the oak cut floor.


The poem needs to be 10 lines, and the even lines should rhyme.... My daughter brought it home and I can't figure one out! HELP PLEASE!!! :) Thank you!


Hi everyone could someone please help me try to understand the significance of this poem.

Passengers

At the gate, I sit in a row of blue seats
with the possible company of my death,
this sprawling miscellany of people—
carry-on bags and paperbacks—

that could be gathered in a flash
into a band of pilgrims on the last open road.
Not that I think
if our plane crumpled into a mountain

we would all ascend together,
holding hands like a ring of skydivers,
into a sudden gasp of brightness,
or that there would be some common place

for us to reunite to jubilize the moment,
some spaceless, pillarless Greece
where we could, at the count of three,
toss our ashes into the sunny air.

It's just that the way that man has his briefcase
so carefully arranged,
the way that girl is cooling her tea,
and the flow of the comb that woman

passes through her daughter's hair ...
and when you consider the altitude,
the secret parts of the engines,
and all the hard water and the deep canyons below ...

well, I just think it would be good if one of us
maybe stood up and said a few words,
or, so as not to involve the police,
at least quietly wrote something down.

I was just wondering if someone could help me understand the significance of this poem, and help answer a few simple questions about it.

1. What does the detail about the passengers ascending together like skydivers signify? What is it's effect?

2. What is the significance of the image of the pillarless Greece? What does it bring to the essay, and to what extent is it literal/figurative?

3. What senses does the image about the girl cooing her tea and the flow of the comb bring? Why do you think the speaker describes these people?

Thanks so much for helping me make sense of the poem...


A really close friend of mine is pregnant, were both 15, im a lad, shes a lass, obviously....

I wrote her this poem to say well done, and, im just wondering what kind of impression it gives off, im not too sure: ???

Congratulations Jodie!

Upon your bump she’s sat.

A big thumbs up to Jodie,
For really coping well,
For going through some awful times,
We all know it was hell.

Although I’m really happy,
And chuffed to bits for you,
I must confess my slight dismay,
No more bum to watch, its true.

But me aside for few last verse,
I can’t say it enough,
Your daughter such an amazing thing,
Who’s mother stayed so tough.

Such a lucky girl she is to have,
A mum who’s just like you,
I know that she’ll love you forever,
A little like me too...

And be with her through all,
But hear me now when i offer this,
If you need any help at all.......

Now that i have your attenton... xD

Okay so this is my gentle poem for my religion class in school. INEED TO ACE THIS! is this good.?

Gentleness

Yet a rose, so peaceful,
as each raindrop hits the bright petal silently, so gentle.
As the sky,
with the big blue texture,
as white clouds move across our skies,
so very gentle.
As a fish would swim,
in our deep beautiful sea,
in our crystal waters,
it shimmers beautifuly,
so very gentle half of our world is.


I am writing a poem for English, but this stanza is giving me the shizz. I am writing a poem as a kindof spinoff to the rime of the ancient mariner. Please help

I didn't know at that time
That the dog I hit was famed.
The daughter of the Presidents dog
Was dead and unclaimed. “
___________________________
“Are you an escaped criminal?”
The man questioned softly.
“Oh no, just listen to what I say”
something something something that rhymes with softly
__________________________

“Roaring down the boulevard
Happy with what I had done,
Up a hill, down a hill
Towards the morning sun.

it is the middle stanza I need help with. You can change it how ever you need, It just needs to be 4 lines, 2 and 4 rhyming. It has to be about the guy telling the story being interrupted by the guy he is telling the story too, and he is asking if he escaped from jail. If you know the ancient mariner, it is the part where the wedding guest is asking the mariner if he is a ghost.

THANKS.


Shell Shock Venus, aborted at sea.
Her youthful uniform torn open and free.
Floating where the whirlpools swirl
Men came diving for her pearl.

They'd scour her surfaces,
She'd dredge up their deep.
In a chaotic universe, shallow and sweet.
And as the merman hurled
Woman went careening from the girl.

And no line of questioning
Could penetrate her nerve.
But something was tapping her reserve.

Ashes of innocence, splinters of dreams.
Her anger in residence, ripping the seams
And petrifying fast;
She anchored to that mast.

Through waves of ecstasy
They'd compromise
But something was lacking in her eyes...

Reptiles in water, a goddess in heat.
We dreamt of a daughter, Venus and me.
Floating where the whirlpools swirl
Men came diving for her pearl...


Mama and Daughter
By: Langston Hughes

Mama, please brush off my coat.
I’m going down the street

Where’re you going, daughter?

To see my sugar-sweet.

Who is your sugar, honey?
Turn around! Let me brush behind.

He is that young man, mama,
I can’t get off my mind.

Daughter once upon a time-
Let me brush the hem-
Your father, yes he was the one!
I felt like that about him.

But many a long year ago
He up and went his way-
I hope that wild young son-of-a-gun
Rots in hell today!

Mama he couldn’t be young still.

He was young yesterday
He was young when he- Turn around!
So I can brush you back, I say!

im doing a report and i need help.





I'm planning my daughter's first birthday, I'm starting early it's not until feb. Her name is Kalysta (ka-list-a) Lee and the theme is going to be precious princess. I desperately need help with the wording for an invitation poem..any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!


my daughter want to sing vallathol poems for a competition . please help me to download his poems(lyrics&audio)free.which poem is good for recitation


It's bedtime at the okay corral & I wrote this in a hurry. It is a rough, rough draft, so...


The drummer boy kept the beat
LEFT, right, LEFT, right
Along with the soldiers' marching feet
LEFT, right, LEFT, right
The sound was thunderous on the street
LEFT, right, LEFT, right
History again was about to repeat
LEFT, right, LEFT!

The army was marching down the street
To go to a war that no one could beat
And some of them going would not come back
And ones that did would be broken and cracked

And kiss the girls and make them cry
You're off to war and about to die
Salute the flag and hold it high
Kiss your mother and wave goodbye
LEFT, right, LEFT

They'll put you in a new body bag
Drape your coffin with a nice, new flag
Then send your medals to your Mom and Dad
To replace the son or daughter they had
LEFT, right, LEFT!
I am very patriotic and support the troops, but...

At least every two years, we'd
trek across country, always from
coast to coast....why the Navy did that,
I don't know, never did we move
to a state nearby.
In the backseat of the car with
two other siblings, we saw every
gas station, every Dairy Queen
and every field of corn in the country,
nice straight rows of corn,
look how straight those rows are,
my dad would say.
From point A to point B, we
never strayed, unless he took extra leave,
then we would make a beeline to
Traverse City, Michigan, to Long Lake
and a week in a rented cabin.
Hearts Delight was our favorite,
we always tried to get that one.
And, it was the one we got that summer
when my mom decided to return to us
after her affair with my best friend's father.
She didn't come back because she
no longer loved him, nor because
she realized she still loved my dad,
no, her lover of nine months had dumped her,
decided to return to his family, and she,
she had no where else to go, so,
she came back "for the children."
I'll never forget that day. I was only
eleven, it's been almost fifty years, but
I still see her walking up the path to us.
She had on black Capri's and a sleeveless
black knit shirt with six huge white buttons,
the size of silver dollars, down the front.
Being the youngest, I ran out to hug her.
Mom didn't like being touched, she never
was a hugger, something I always respected, but,
today, today I felt I'd be forgiven. I was so damn
glad to see my mom. For many reasons.
So, I ran right out there and threw my arms
around her frame. It was the coldest hug I'd ever
had, and since that day, I've only had one other
that cold, oddly enough, it was from
my own daughter.
But, that's another story.
All I felt were the bones in her back. Her arms were
so thin, they felt foreign to me. Where had my
mother gone? Was this all that was left of her?
That night, in "Hearts Delight," we put on
the record of "The King and I." My brother
was Yul Brynner and I, Debra Kerr, together we
waltzed to "Shall We Dance?" to entertain
the family. We hammed it up and mimicked
our characters, our performance worthy of
awards. Well, everyone thought so, but Mom.
She just sat, and stared, and occasionally cried.
We stayed a family to the very end, but never
returned to Long Lake. Our hearts lost any
delight.


moving on in th past!

got to go forward just wanna go back
teen years are supose to be the best but are the worst
a single father no longer alone
a daughter wishing to go back but to late in time
a mother thats gone and a girl who mises her life
memories hat canot be brought back
a girl that needs to move on but stays in th past


I wrote this some time ago, don't think I ever posted it, though:

IMPRESSIONS

You should have been a little less firm when you yelled and watched him turn away as you cried and fell asleep, only to wake to the telephone ringing. "This is the sheriff, your son has died, crashed into a tree while out for a ride." You remember the moments before his passing and now you realize what they mean by impressions are lasting. It's been 10 years since he's been gone, you finally realize, he's never coming home.

You never should have done what you did, but when she cried you were full of rage, you saw the blood and the ripped up blouse as she cried to you for help, you didn't know until the very last second it was his fault, and she was unprotected. You told her just before she left, don't gone too long, that you will not regret, but the fear in her eyes is what hurt you most as you stood there and told her to go, run away and it's your fault then the day came when she never came home.

We never realize how much we hurt those we love until it's too late, so take this time to love. Love your children with all your might never let them leave your sight, be overprotective don't be ashamed, you are a mother or a father just the same. Sometimes it's hard to make a good impression but remember all those who never get the impression, that they are loved and they are protected.

Don't let it be your son or daughter, don't let them feel neglected.

He was just a shy young man, didn't want to go to the party, but you forced him and as he left you didn't realize that it wasn't that kind of party.

You didn't know the hurt you caused as you drank and told her to go; she was too young; she did not understand what it meant to be in love with a man.

These are the things that hurt children most, parents who don't see the hurt that is caused most, not by a bully or an overbearing teacher, but by a mother or father with a cross to bear.

Thank you sara f and Christy. I have a keen mind for observing things, and although I am happy to say I have not experienced life such as what I wrote about, hearing about things like this just brings to mind things in me that I like to let out when I can.


My little darling came to me July 30th & recently passed on October 11 at 2mos.12days old. I am really in need of some beautiful quotes, poems, sayings or anything...about maybe the loss of a baby/child.. or about angels.. I love angels especially now that I know my daughter is one of them.


Can someone explain me what this "Song of the flower" meant? this is my grandma's favorite poem.. pls help mee!!!

I am a kind word uttered and repeated
By the voice of Nature;
I am a star fallen from the
Blue tent upon the green carpet.
I am the daughter of the elements
With whom Winter conceived;
To whom Spring gave birth; I was
Reared in the lap of Summer and I
Slept in the bed of Autumn.


At dawn I unite with the breeze
To announce the coming of light;
At eventide I join the birds
In bidding the light farewell.


The plains are decorated with
My beautiful colors, and the air
Is scented with my fragrance.


As I embrace Slumber the eyes of
Night watch over me, and as I
Awaken I stare at the sun, which is
The only eye of the day.


I drink dew for wine, and hearken to
The voices of the birds, and dance
To the rhythmic swaying of the grass.


I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.


But I look up high to see only the light,
And never look down to see my shadow.
This is wisdom which man must learn.


a park and a pond--
old grey haired man with sad hunch
and attractive thin Iranian looking daughter
with arm in a sling
have three dogs
and they play Frisbee.

dogs are frenetic and wild
barkin and yappin
with their tongues all a’flappin
as dogs sometimes do.

another family walks up now
gramma grampa mom and
her little daughter maybe three years
and they’re strollin by
probably doesn’t matter what
they’re saying
they’re havin a ball you can
see it in their faces.
little girl walks with a wobble
like on a fleshy pair of stilts
a fresh learned talent
not so graceful.

well one dog who is white
gets very excited, what with
the new prospective scent
thrown into the mix
and he races up to put a few
words in still barkin
still yappin
at a full mad dash
and what do you know
he bowls the baby girl right over!


I'm trying to write a thesis paper and im trying to include how she would write about her brother, i've already googled and searched and searched, but I can't find anything! I usually get answers like 'she only dedicated her work to her daughter or students' but I know she wrote a poem for her brother to come home safely... I just dont know which one.


I need a touching inspirational poem to a friend that lost 2 children......the poem will be for her and her daughter that is still alive and having a hard time dealing. This is for a memorial...thanks!

i'm not a parent... just my parents are crazy... they will put me on the streets


I need this paragraph checked for punctuation please. My 11 year old daughter has been out sick with the flu and homework has been sent home for her. She's a bit confused and I've never been good with Punctuation so could use some help, helping her. Thanks in advance!

While I was playing basketball I had a terrific idea for a poem. The first part would have the rhythm of dribbling and the second part would have the soaring grace of a great leap when the game was over. I dashed back to my locker. I grabbed my favorite pen with green ink and quickly wrote eight short lines. After I read the lines to myself I added two long lines. Then I read the poem to my friend Antoine. Antoine said I should submit my poem to the school newspaper, because it was so clever. Who knows maybe I’ll be a published author?


Like a pool of midnight water
everything is inky black
and for a while I'm no-one's daughter
and I'm never coming back.
All around me there is space so dark
that I can't see my hands
but the darkness doesn't scare me
No one has to understand
that I'm a goddess on a shining moon
a rod between my fingers
I cast out into velvet
and fish for stars; I want to linger
because it's peaceful here, and quiet
and my dreams are all my own.
The place where I can sleep and rest
is the place where I am home.
Thank you all who answered. I'm fifteen.*


Divorces
Do you remember the time at one
of your quiet restaurant lunches
when you were SURE-
I mean when your ears were just
as sure as your silversweet tongue
was sure that the soup was over salted
(because you always were
really sensitive really
tongue ears nose fingers almost
everything) and your father said
something that well wasn't, it just
wasn't well, you know-and
it was so funny you could have held
your breath for years waiting
to say something because you knew
like the soup WAS over salted
you knew he lied.
And all of the people laughed
even the brotherly foreign
maitre d'...
and then suddenly
you got scared because his eyes
didn't lie
and though you were
his beautiful well-behaved daughter

you were very, very far away and
could see.
Thank you for you input. That sounds very good, I was also thinking about how the writer may be trying to express that nothing is as it seems. I don't really know though, I have 1000 ideas but cannot seem to pull it all together with this poem. Who do you think the speaker is?? Her... or the mother perhaps??


Where would you place the correct pauses in this poem?
Im sorry if my english is not right, it's not my medium language.
so, where would you place the pauses(/) and (//) in this poem.

Like the Molave

I.
Not yet, rizal, not yet. Sleep not in peace:
There are a thousand waters to be spanned;
There are a thousand mountains to be crossed;
There are a thousand crosses to be borne.
Our shoulders are not strong; our sinews are
Grown flaccid with dependence, smug with ease
Under another’s wing. Rest not in peace;
Not yet, Rizal, not yet. The land has need
Of young blood-and, what younger than your own,
Forever spilled in the great name of freedom,
Forever oblate on the altar of
The free? Not you alone, Rizal. O souls
And spirits of the martyred brave, arise!
Arise and scour the land! Shed once again
Your willing blood! Infuse the vibrant red
Into our thin anaemic veins; until
We pick up your Promethean tools and, strong,
Out of the depthless matrix of your of your faith
In us, and on the silent cliffs of freedom,
We carve for all time your marmoreal dream!
Until our people, seeing, are become
Like the molave, firm, resilent, staunch,
Rising on the hillside, unafraid,
Strong in its own fibre, yes, like the molave!

II.
The youth of the land is a proud and noble appellation,
The youth of the land is a panoramic poem,
The youth of the land is a book of paradoxes,
The youth of the land is a pat on one’s back,
The youth of the land is a huge canvas of spectral colors,
The youth of the land is an epic tragedy-comedy,
The youth of the land is a crashing symphony,
The youth of the land is a child grown old in tears,
The youth of the land is an old man laughing through a perpetual infancy;
A bastard child of a thousand dreams, masquerading and dancing,
The youth of the land.

III.
We, the Filipinos of today, are soft,
Easy-going, parasitic, frivolous,
Inconstant, indolent, inefficient.

Would you have me sugarcoat you?

I would be happier to shower praise upon
My countrymen…but let us be realists…
Let us strip ourselves

Youth of the land, you are a bitter pill to swallow.

This is a testament of the youth borne on the four pacific winds;
This is a parable of seed four ways sown in stone;
This is a chip not only on the President’s shoulder:
The nation of our fathers shivers with longing expectation.

Shall we, sons and daughters, brother youths of the land,
Walk up new and forever knock the flirting chip off?
Or will the nation of our fathers be forever and forever
Lighting candles in the wind?


I sit silently by an unknown river
Caressed by the perfect summer temperature
Watching my unreal daughter
Wildly dance among so many fireflies
In a purple dress
I am at rest.

And I might be on the back of butterfly wings
Morphing slowly like clouds
Drifting upon the solstice
Dissecting the machine of time
Finding out just how much is alive

I open my eyes wide
Consciously trying to take it all inside
But it took what was inside out
And I felt filled for the first time

I know my sailboat could easily run aground
But to forsake this I would never forget
I don’t doubt what I do is dangerous
But it slays the dragon of regret
And keeps me far from the valley of ignorance
These trips let me at rest
Wow, the ending is supposed to be "These trips keep me at rest" I'm not sure how that typo happened, my bad.


"nighean, nighean!"

she sits by
the wooden table
playing with
a spinning wheel,
which darts
across
the cobbled floor;
and then to her surprise
the door opens
and the fisherman
shouts "nighean, nighean!"
and the little girl
in her white cotton dress
smiles
and the sun begins
to rest upon the clouds above;
and from the harbour wall
we hear
the clamour of boats
and the cutting out of engines,
while
lobsters, sea trout and salmon
are iced in boxes
and left by the side of the pier.



nighean- Gaelic for daughter

actually i have not finished writing the song yet and i really want it to be a Ballad
but i just want to hear some opinions before i go on.........
I was inspired to write it by two things:
the story "khalil the Heretic" by Khalil Gibran
and the movie "Braveheart"



Behind that hill,
High into mountains
Or deep in sea
Will i ever find you

Across the land,
Around the globe,
Retrace the Echo
Thro' time and space

From the north
Comes the Cry
Rejoiced to hear
Your name again

So hear me, oh Daughter of Athens
Save me, oh Sister of Rome
Teach me, oh Bride of Jesus
Help me, oh Beloved of Mohammed

To be continued..............

(Finally i should signal that the last four verses are taken from the aforesaid story)

Thank you guys
High Harry: as i said this song was inspired by the Movie braveheart and if you ever watched it, surely you would get the idea.
for exemple:
By "From the north
Comes the Cry"
I am referring to William Wallace when he screamed Freedom at the end of the movie.
i hope you get it now
Mello1: what do you mean by "at this time when so many are angry at differences when they shouldn't be"
eleuth: you are Farsi aren't you?


A listening ear
A shoulder to cry on
Words of advice and comfort flow from her lips
She helps me
She loves me
She makes me feel good
She was the one who asked me to.


"There was such speed in her little body,
And such lightness in her footfall,
It is no wonder her brown study Astonishes us all

Her wars were bruited in our high window.
We looked among orchard trees and beyond
Where she took arms against her shadow,
Or harried unto the pond

The lazy geese, like a snow cloud
Dripping their snow on the green grass,
Tricking and stopping, sleepy and proud,
Who cried in goose, Alas,

For the tireless heart within the little
Lady with rod that made them rise
From their noon apple-dreams and scuttle
Goose-fashion under the skies!

But now go the bells, and we are ready,
In one house we are sternly stopped
To say we are vexed at her brown study,
Lying so primly propped. "

What kind of a house stops them from being angry? I don't really understand this part.


Life is like an ice cream
Enjoy it before it’s gone
Until it’s totally done with
Have fun from dusk to dawn

Life is like sour skittles
Sweet, sour, and bitter all inside
With tasteless and tasteful memories
Full of both hurt and pride

Life isn’t like a story
You won’t know the end till it’s done
There really is no guide book
On how to live for fun

Life’s sweet and fun and bitter
You’ll meet people fun and nice
You’ll also meet some people
Whose hearts are cold as ice

When you go out in the real world
Life can be a game to win
It can also be a drama
That will rise above the din

So even when you’re a child
Enjoy life to its best
Don’t bother getting so worried
Don’t waste time being stressed

Just have a lot of fun
And make your life worthwhile
And don’t be afraid to let people in
Always save for everyone a smile

That’s how to live life well
Good luck to you, I say
Enjoy life to its fullest
And do something special every day


I have my own angel
She may not look the part
But believe me, she’s amazing
She’s kind and very smart

If you ever saw my angel
You’d be unable to tell
She has no wings or halo
But she’s rescued me from hell

Every single morning
She made me feel so good
With a warm and ready smile
She helped as best she could

She was so supportive
She said I could come to her
If I ever needed anything
Or if I ever was unsure

She gave compliments with ease
In a kind and caring way
She gave me a reason
To continue on each day

My angel helped me so much
She’s done the world for me
She’s gave my life a reason
And I thank her gratefully

Trembling in fear
She looks into my eyes
Pleading in vain
I see through her disguise

But I cannot help her
I stay silent once more
I’m ashamed but do nothing
Life goes on as before

I turn my back on this child
Though I know she needs me
I try to ignore it
Though it’s so plain to see

But if something should happen
I know that I’ll regret
Turning aside like the others
And not doing my best

Life is so precious
Then why is it so tough?
No matter what I do
It’s never enough



Before anyone says anything, my daughter is fourteen and she's not depressed; she told me she was reading something and was just inspired to write.


My enemy attacks
He is ruthless as can be
He uses all his power
To bring down and destroy me

My enemy is heartless
He cares for no other
His unpredictable rages
Come one after another

My enemy is cunning
He knows how to get his way
He can convince anyone
To do what he may say

My enemy is a monster
He tries to control me
And sometimes I can’t help it
I give in and let him be

My enemy is evil
He causes me to sin
Yet sometimes the true enemy
Is the enemy within



Before anyone says anything, she's fourteen and she's not depressed; she just read something somewhere and was inspired.


She sleeps so uneasy
She’s lost her innocence
I reach out my hand to touch her
Her body is so tense

She starts and then wakes up
Her eyes are wide with fear
“Shh, baby, it’s just me,” I say,
“You’re safe and I am here.”

“What are you doing in my room?”
I can see she’s still upset
I have reminded her of things
That she’d rather forget

“You know I’d never hurt you.
You know you’re safe with me.
I’ll always protect you
From whatever it may be.”

I feel her relaxing
She looks up solemnly
“I know that I’m safe here.
I know you’ll protect me.

“I’ve been hurt and hurt again
I’ve been betrayed and used
But now my life is changing
And all this thanks to you.”



And before anyone says anything, it isn't about her; she was inspired by something she read.


We are having a poem contest at school. I think its the same as the speaking contest, whoever is best at speeching is chosen and those people challenge off to see who wins. Anyway i have a short one, or a very long one. I already know the Short one off by heart and its Wednesday that we go back to school, but i got my mums opinion and she likes the long one better. I geuss i do to, because it keeps people thinking. Here is the short one:
Ladies and Jellyspoons, hobos and tramps
crosseyed mosquitos and bow legged ants
I come before you
to stand behind you
and tell you something i no nothing about
Next thursday which is good friday
their will be a mothers meeting
for fathers only
wear your best clothes
if you havent any
come if you cant
if you can, stay at home
admission is free so
pay at the door
pull up a seat
and sit on the floor
it makes no difference where you sit,
the man in the gallery's sure to spit.

And heres the long one:

Many, many years ago
when I was twenty-three,
I got married to a widow
who was a pretty as could be.

This widow had a grown-up daughter
who had hair of red.
My father fell in love with her,
and soon the two were wed.

This made my dad my son-in-law
and change my very life.
My daughter was my mother,
for she was my father's wife.

To complicate the matters worse,
although it brought me joy,
I soon became the father
of a bouncing baby boy.

My little baby then became
a brother-in-law to dad.
And so became by uncle,
though it made me very sad.

For if he was my uncle,
then that also made him brother
To the widow's grown up daughter who,
of course, was my step-mother

Father's wife then had a son,
who kept them on the run.
And he became my grandson,
for he was my daughter's son.

My wife is now my mother's mother
and it makes me blue,
Because, although she is my wife,
she's my grandma too.

If my wife is my grandmother,
then I am her grandchild
And every time I think of it,
it simply drives me wild.

For now I have become
the strangest case you ever saw,
As the husband of my grandmother,
I am my own grandpa!

Bonus points (thumbs up) if you tell my who the author of the long one was?
And if you are wondering, we don't malke up the poems, they have to be written by real poets.

THANKYOU!!

I am your puppet
I must do as you say
You pull my strings
And I must obey

I am your china doll
You turn the key
And I dance to the music
For all to see

I am your pawn
In your own chess game
You take the credit
But I take the blame

I am your plaything
Until you get bored
Then what will my pain
Have been for?

I wish I could escape you
But the rope is tightly wound
I am lost inside myself
Will I ever be found?

I hide in the light
Yet no one sees me
You hold me captive
I will never be free
She's fourteen. She writes all the poems and posts them on my account. :P

Would it be OK for Don Imus to tell some jokes about Obama's kids and their nappy heads?


What's with the double-standard about vicious Liberal insults and over -the-top offensive " jokes " ?

Why is it that Wanda Sykes can get away with saying that she wishes Rush would have kidney failure and Dave Letterman can hurl dozens and dozens of insults and offensive comments about Sarah Palin's sex life & personal life and the sex lives & personal lives of her teenage daughters getting knocked up by Arod but NOBODY dares to say one word about the Obamessiah or anyone in the Obama family ?

Why did so many people call for Imus' firing after 1 offensive remark that he jokingly made but so few people are calling to fire Sykes or Letterman from their shows after dozens of offensive remarks they have made against Rush & the entire Palin family ?


yes the black community wanted him fired immediately and cbs did indeed fire him but letterman can bash palins daughter and nothing happens to him but an apology come on this country is racist indeed toward the white people how much are we gonna take


How is it that Don Imus, who was known for pushing the limits with some of his comments, was fired for making a jokingly racist remark against the Rutgers Women's basketball team, yet David Letterman doesn't even feel the need to apologize for joking about Sarah Palin's daughter being "knocked up" by Alex Rodriguez and should stay away from Elliot Spitzer?

Also, do you buy into the fact that Letterman claims to have been talking about Palin's older daughter and not her 14-year old?
And yes, Imus eventually found work again, but he STILL apologized, despite the fact that he had already lost his job.


Or doesn't he care about Lettermans remarks about Palins daughter ? Or does he not do that for white conservative women ? Thanks in advance for your answers. God bless.


Not one feminist group sticks up for Palin and her daughter. And rarely a liberal either....What gives?


In fact I would say Letterman's is worse because it was rehearsed, planned and scripted.

Also since his show is not aired live CBS had an opportunity to edit the disgusting statutory rape joke concerning Palin's 14 year old daughter and A-rod - so why didn't they?
I agree with the statement that A-rod was also a victim in this sick joke, - I hope he makes a statement repudiating this entire sick joke.


Where are the feminists over a much worse joke about Palin's 14 yr old daughter and over Palins looks as being "sl.tly stewardess"?? Why isn't Letterman getting fired?

Double standard? Hypocrisy?


Do you think David Letterman should be held accountable for his comments about Sarah Palin's daughter just like Don Imus was over the NAPPY HEADED HO'S comment I sure do whats good for one should be good for all oh I guess because letterman is a liberal he shouldn't be held accountable! Just like Obama and th rest!


for what he's been saying about Sarah Palins' daughter, after all the liberals calling for Don Imus to be fired? Imus, at least apologized and the people he insulted were willing public figures. Sarah Palins daughter didn't ask for publicity she was just telling people to learn from her mistakes. Oberman is the biggest scumbag I've ever seen in my life.
he's always lying and taking things out of context.








Let me ask you pointedly, do you think he should be fired?

SEN. BARACK OBAMA (D-IL), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: I don‘t think MSNBC should be carrying the kinds of hateful remarks that Imus uttered the other day. And he has a track record of making those kinds of remarks.

Look, I‘ve got two daughters who are African-American, gorgeous, tall, and I hope that at some point, are interested enough in sports that they get athletic scholarships. And my wife and I every day are reinforcing our love for them and how special they are.

I don‘t want them to be getting a bunch of information that somehow they‘re less than anybody else. And I don‘t think MSNBC should want to promote that kind of language.

GREGORY: So he should be off the air, off MSNBC and off CBS, off the air completely in your judgment?

OBAMA: Ultimately, you guys are going to have to make that view. He would not be working for me.

Note that his two daughters attended Wrights sermons
Yeah it should be asked again and again until people wake up
Yeah it should be asked again and again until people wake up
To Kung Fu:
Obama’s campaign announced that the minister, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., had left its spiritual advisory committee after videotapes of his sermons again ignited fierce debate in news accounts and political blogs.

Obama did not clarify whether Wright volunteered to leave his African American Religious Leadership Committee, a loose group of supporters associated with the campaign, or whether the campaign asked him to leave


Yet takes the daughters to a church which spits racist poison?
Mary mou go on You Tube you will find it there, I just watched several clips on Imus and Obama!


This is Obama demanding for NBC to fire Don Imus for his racist remarks against the women's Rutgers basketball team .

“There’s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude,” Obama told ABC News in an April 11 interview.

“He didn’t just cross the line,” Obama raged then. “He fed into some of the worst stereotypes that my two young daughters are having to deal with today in America.

Obama has downplayed Wright for Wright's insensitive remarks, saying he has done good work with the poor and AIDS victims. Yet Obama did not afford the same respect to Imus, who has devoted considerable energy to helping children with cancer, wounded war veterans, and others

I guess Imus just had the wrong skin color at the time


Obama is the ultimate hypocrite

I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus," Obama told ABC News in a story dated April 11, 2007, "but I would also say that there's nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude."

"He didn't just cross the line," Obama said. "He fed into some of the worst stereotypes that my two young daughters are having to deal with today in America. The notions that as young African-American women – who I hope will be athletes – that that somehow makes them less beautiful or less important. It was a degrading comment. It's one that I'm not interested in supporting."
He should of fired Wright, he offended many ethnic groups.
jas, he admitted today he sat through wrights hate speeches





I think that the world has lost any sense of toughness. Everyone is sooo overly sensitive that speech is constantly being hindered and everyone is a victim. I know a woman who's daughter was "acquaintance raped" years ago and she now is on disability and attending community college on taxpayer dollars because she suffers from "second hand post traumatic stress disorder". Don Imus gets fired because he's stupid and made a derogatory comment! Al Sharpeton gets involved and the victim game gets started all over again. Why can't people just toughen up and roll with the punches once in awhile? What would the people who lived through the great depression say when people bitch about gaining too much weight and blame it on McDonalds? Am I alone in this belief that people need to just f-u-c-k-i-n-g deal with it?!


Here is the timeline of events that have passed since I was last on, based on my selective memory:

Nancy Pelosi went to Siria to try to show up the administration and show what a communist she really is.

Don Imus was kicked off his MSNBC and radio show after he called the Rutgers female basketball team nappy headed ho's and A-hole Sharpton served him up as an example of genuine racism even though Imus is an equal opportunity insulter,

Cho Sung Hui (or however you pronounce that dirtbag' name) went on a killing spree at Va.Tech because he was a social outcast.

Alec Baldwin's recorded message to his daughter was discovered by mass media and he was greatly chastised for it.

Finally, Michael Vick was in the news last night after it was discovered that one of his homes is being used for dog-fighting. And to think I was a Michael Vick fan, and not just for his athletic ability...

I'll try to not miss all the fun next time.


Is it more palatable to keep Baldwin around because he has a more high profile show than Imus? Two weeks ago Don Imus used racial terms on an anonymous basketball team, Alec Baldwin called HIS OWN DAUGHTER A PIG! Is it right that he gets a walk because he can only deal with his ex wife by beating up on his daughter on the phone?


Who's comments were worse, Alec Baldwin's to his own young daughter, or Don Imus' to adult women he didn't even know? Support your opinion.


Alec is funny on 30 rock but I must say that the comments made to his daughter is verbal child abuse and should be dealt with harshly by NBC. Imus made an ill mannered tastless racist joke/comment but at least he did not completly berate his his 11 year old child just because she didn't pick up the phone. Alec Balwin is a sorry excuse for a human. Lets see if NBC has the guts to can this idiot
People get fired/suspended at work for things they do in thier private life all the time. Pac man jones was just suspended by the nfl for a year for just basicly being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Alec is in the public eye and fair or not what he does in his private life that gets out in the public makes an impact and he should be held responsible for his actions. He represents NBC and they have the right and the duty to repremand him for giving himself and the network a black eye.


Now is the time to hold all the rappers and hip hop artists accountable for their mysoginist lyrics and videos. If you don't want the young girls to grow up bent over shaking their hindparts and being called bi*ch and ho, that is our daughters, our neices, our granddaughters, neighbors, our son's girfriends, daughters in law, then boycott these artists. And this is not about race, Imus showed us that all women are being demeaned by this music.

I'm starting with 50 cent, lil john and Snoop Dogg. Even though I like some of their songs, I am sick and tired of the denigration of women. So I am the first. I will not buy their CDs and I will not listen to radio stations that play them. Who is with me?



BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT!
Yes I did decide to do this after Oprah. Why? Because I was so frustrated about this and felt I couldn't do anything. Now that Oprah, the most watched show on tv has come out against this, I think we have a chance of making a real change. I know I will not be the only one. And yes, we should boycott the corporations as well, but It is the rappers saying those lyrics, nobody put a gun to their heads and they have mothers and daughters and a community to answer to.
Maybe they will still make money, but guess what, they are sensitive to their fans opinions. I think they are especially sensitive to being critisized by the African American community. I saw Russel Simmons, probably a billionare looking like he wanted to cry. That tells you something.


For all of you out there (mostly White people) who want to claim that Imus' firring was an "injustice," that he was made a scapegoat, and that he was only doing "what rappers do;" check this story out..

DJ Fired Over X-Rated Racial Slurs

NEW YORK -- Hip-hop disc jockey Star, half the radio duo that hosts the syndicated "Star & Buc Wild Morning Show," was fired Wednesday over racial and sexual remarks he made about a rival's wife and 4-year-old daughter.

Star, whose real name is Troi Torain, worked for Clear Channel Radio's Power 105.1 FM before losing his job when his on-air comments about DJ Envy and his family drew protests from a City Council member and other elected officials.

Clear Channel, the nation's largest radio station owner, said it found his statements "wholly unacceptable."

"As of late this afternoon, he is no longer with Power 105.1 or Clear Channel Radio.

Hmm?


my personal opinion is yes. I think what he said was wrong, I wouldn't want that said about my mom,sisters,or daughter. but this is america and we as americans black,white,red,brown, etc. have the right of free speech, and also the freedom of choice. if you don't like what he says don't listen to him. people say things that are racist, sexiest, and politcally incorrect everyday. iv'e watched the chappelle show many times and laughed out loud, same with south park. i also listen to all types of music and heard lyrics that are uncalled for, but i had the opportunity to change the channel. the girls admitted they had never seen the show so how did they know what he said? sharpton and jackson never even met with the girls but took up their cause. i am curious to see what music was in the girls cd collection. the only reason imus was fired was his influence. he was a threat to a political agenda and a thorn in the side of politicians.


I think so...calling those girls that kind of stuff..if they were my daughter I would want to smack the teeth out of his mouth...


Frankly, I don't agree with Imus on most issues, but in my view, people are taking this comment he made way too far. Why isn't anyone scolding the rappers for their foul language, and personal attacks? Also, women's basketball team is acting pathetic in my opinion. I mean, come on! They seem to be giving this man way too much power over them. In my opinion, everyone needs to, as my daughter would say, "GET OVER IT!" What say you all?
Excuse me java, but I do read the news, and the fact that the women's basketball team made an issue of it all was a shame. Most were saying they were, "crushed", "devastated". Come on!!
I'll be 41 next month, and my mother is Native American. Racist? Not hardly.
Are any of you whom disagree with me going to address the rappers, and their outrageous rhetoric?!
John O- Not at all. I know my daughter isn't any of those things, and I have the maturity to rise above it, and so does she. It's nothing to me.
Soulsflow, I don't agree with Paris Hilton's behavior, or lifestyle, but that's not the point. Paris Hilton does get called down frequently by the media. She's often called a "brainless bimbo", "a slut..." I guess it's you that doesn't pay attention to things. Give me a break! You're right, those women have accomplished a lot, and I'm sure it wasn't easy, but yet, they're letting this old man have power over them. Pathetic.
TerryO, aren't rappers always degrading women, calling them "bitches, and ho's"? Yes, indeed they are. Why aren't you outraged at that? This women shouldn't be offended, because indeed, they're NOT "nappy-headed ho's". I think blacks should get over it, whites, women should get over it, and everybody else!
lokisuit, please. My mother is Native American, and has told us nightmare stories about how she was treated as a kid. She got over it, and lets no one get her down. I think maybe you should join the Black Panthers.
Misguide, I agree with you. EVERYONE should be held to the same standards. As for the women basketball team, I still think it's a shame that these women let this man have so much power over them, and made it verbally known. Thanks for the intelligent response with no personal attacks.
ProudAmerican, thanks for the response, and I think you've made an excellent point!
Excellent point, Shawna!
=^..^=IrieGirl=^..^= , The rappers have a powerful voice that reaches millions. Yes, they should be held to the very same standard as Imus was held to, and for you not to think so makes you a hypocrite, with all due respect.


You'd be feeling ok with that, would you?
What a bunch of liars.
If this guy spoke of your family this wayon national radio, you'd "blow it off"??
What kind of parents are you?


This was a trajedy in the lives of these girls. They did nothing and were attacked. I'm black, if these were white girls, I would have felt terrible. I'm a father of a daughter, I would have been beside myself. I know there are many who are racist and care less in here about minorities, less alone blacks. Okay. What about the human part of you? What do you think about the paint to these girls, that Imus has caused? Or, are they just monkeys as some in here have called me. God Bless


With all the talk about Imus we have lost the beginning that there was a girls basketball game that went on. Forget the score and who won, it just became an arena for some politicians to settle another score. Sharpton should be ashamed of himself, what has he done for college sports? And his daughter dissing Imus that he was not sincere, who made her the sincerity police--her father?


If I name my daughter,
Nappy Ho
I'm racist. But if I name her
Shake Yo Ass You Nappy Ass Ho
Then it's all good.
Right?


What would you say to her about Don Imus comments ? What kind of action would you want taken ??


Don imus? Al Sharpton ?

Our attention has been diverted from the War.

Nice to see that the fact that our best men and woman who are green and blue first , Then white ,black and brown.

Have taken a back seat to the yellow.

oh by the way people at any give time there at least 24 different anti american organization who are more than willing
to unleash mass death and distruction on our sons and daughters mother fathers and sister whether they are black brown or white red or tan.

If your are a white Suprimist and want to be a martyr for your cause go fight over seas they pose the greatest threat to the aryan nation.

And if you are black an want to combat injustice Al qaeda will make lynching look like the easy way out if they start chopping off heads for offensives such as walking the street without wearing your vale


Yesterday, I was watching Sharpton on the Glenn Beck Show. Glen Beck asked him if he was upset that these girls were called hos.

Sharpton went on to say that yes, when you have a daughter who EXCELs it is upsetting to hear them called a ho.

Glen Beck said well even if you have a daughter who doesn't excel it is upsetting. It was a brief exchange but the light bulb went off in my head.

My theory is that in the black community, or in our society as a whole, but especially in the black community ie. rappers, comedians, that it is okay to call normal women hos but never someone who excels.

That just strikes me as so wrong but the logic fits in my mind. It angers me that the so-called black leaders won't say anything against rap music but they want Don Imus fired.

Am I off base or on to something? Please let me know.
Thank you.


What about refering to these WOMEN athletes who are also studing to be doctors and lawyers as ho's? Are there any women who are outraged by this? Playing an aggressive male dominated sport makes you a HO? Having tattoos makes you a HO? Are there any MEN out there that will stand up for your moms, daughters and sisters reguardless of color against this behavoir? What he said was wrong and to use an excuse like rappers do it was a poor shifting of blame and shoes me he's realy NOT sorry. (And no I do not condone rappers doing it either) If someone spits on you and you spit back you become just as guilty. And as far as the free speech thing, in the 20's-60's there was a free speech sign that said "WHITES ONLY".


This country's hypocritic soul is in BAD need of an enima. No doubt what crawled out of Imus's mouth was uncalled for, but my god, how we DO love to play the "victim". Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are the LAST people on the planet to be casting the first stones at another for making for racist remarks. I would also ask America how many times a day terms like "nappy-headed", or "ho" are used by blacks as compared to whites? Be honest. It's high time ALL of us get over our selectively hypersensitive selves. Let's not forget that a half a world away, human beings are tearing apart other human beings in the name of RELIGION, and our own sons and daughters of ALL races are forced into the middle of this holocaust by a monkey-puppet spokesface of a greedy, evil cabal.

peace
How so, American?


Would Pelosi be excused because she wore a scarf?
Rutgers has no responsibility either? They are not in cosmetology school after all.
BTW thank god my daughter stopped playing basket ball.
It's all Imus's fault. Is it?
Is it all Imus's fault-------or are we.....?
All of US - white, black, purple....

I was browsing at a gun store and came across the Cobra Big Bore .38 Derringer. I've always been curious about Derringers, but does anyone that has used one have an opinion? I would only want it for concealed carry, and I realize it won't be the most accurate gun with the super short barrel, but what about quality? Any opinions are appreciated!

I feel stupid for leaving quiet riot and alice in chains, but twisted sister only had one big hit so they weren't on here. Dang I feel stupid! Oh well... and also, Pantera is on there.
Oh man! I coulda sworn I put REM on here! Dang! I'll revise this thing, though.


I'm the sound designer for a production of Assassins by Steven Sondheim. In the show are the 9 different guns that were used to attempt or successfully assassinate a president.

The guns are as follows:
- .44 caliber Derringer (John Wilkes Booth)
- Mannlicher-Carcano bolt action rifle (Lee Harvey Oswald)
- .32 caliber Iver-Johnson "Safety Automatic" hammerless revolver (Leon Czolgosz)
- .22 caliber Rohm RG-14 revolver (John Warnock Hinckley Jr.)
- .44 Webley British Bulldog revolver (Charles Julius Guiteau)
- .32 caliber Smith & Wesson hammerless pistol, 5 shot (Giuseppe Zangara)
- .22 snube nose caliber revolver, don't know the manufacturer (Samuel Byck)
- .45 Colt semi-automatic, this one i can get fairly easy (Lynette Alice "Squeaky" Fromme)
- .38 caliber revolver Smith & Wesson, 5 shot nickle plated with 4" in. barrel (Sara Jane Moore)

Now i know i most likely will not be able to get that specific with the SFX, but any help to get close is appreciated.

I have an FIE D38 .38 Cal. Derringer, in which the lower barrel will not detonate the round. I have replaced the hammer selector to no avail. Now, this may have been a mistake but, but I switched the firing pins to see what would happen. Still the lower barrel would not detonate, I know these are not great pistols but when I bought it, it did work fine. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.


my wife wants a pocket derringer for protection. i have found a pawn shop that sells them new in box . all calibers are the same price. i realize that the larger calibers would be painful on the hands but she needs something that would still do the job. also with only a 2.25" barrel most of the needed muzzle velocity is never obtained, therefore ballistic charts are pretty worthless when considering this. looking for the best knock down power with minimal hand shock whats the best choice? there are so many loads to choose from in each caliber this only adds to my confusion. the choices are .22L.R. / .22 MAG / .32 CAL. / 38 SPECIAL, .380 A.C.P. / 9 MM. i am leaning towards the 9 mm or 38 special. the 38 might have too much kick though. the 9 mm would be very economical and with the right load could have the most power but i want others opinions. when answering keep in mind that she has her mind dead set on a double barrel- hammer style derringer, NO AUTOMATICS! dont say Kel Tec P-32
folks, they do not have the .45 L.C./.410 it is not available! please choose from the calibers given.
the .45L.C./.410 would be best but it is not available


Below is a list of some of the artists/bands on my iTunes so that you can have an idea of what I like. As you can tell, my taste is very diverse. But please keep in mind when making suggestions that I have thousands upon thousands of CDs and albums and that these artists are just a few compared to the rest...thanks!

I just purchased a model 360 scandium .357 for concealed carry and wondered what other owners thought of this awesome little gun. i'm going to shoot target with .38 +p and run .357 mags with concealed carry. i've actually shot derringers with .357 so it's not that crazy to run that round in the 360. also concerning frame strength and reliability -s&w has guaranteed me that this gun will stand up to .357 mag rounds as long as you can take it and then some. also i put a hogue monogrip installed before i even took it home. trigger pull feels great even out of the box.. any ideas on holsters -i like the synthetic variety -shoulder carry and possibly other carry. any input well appreciated-thanx.


I am a big fan of music. I also like a fairly wide variety. Though, I'm not really into the newer mainstream stuff. I despise rap (no offense meant) and the rock which is labeled "emo" (again, no offense meant). Here is a list of the musicians on my iTunes library. However, this list doesn't even compare to the bands/artists in my CD collection. But, if there is a band or artist that you think I may not have and think I would like, please say so! Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!
