A Day Of Freedom
Today is a day of freedom,
Today is a day of martyrdom,
Freedom from time and space,
Martyrdom of life and breath.
Oh mortal, when will you pull through?
When will you fall out of negativity?
Oh mortal, when will kindness brew?
When will you turn to progressivity?
Today is a day of freedom,
Today is a day of martyrdom,
Freedom from time and space,
Martyrdom of life and breath.
Oh mortal, when will you pray to be free?
When will you shine like the Sun?
Oh mortal, when will God's destiny you lead?
When will you turn to the Infinite One?
Today is a day of freedom,
Today is a day of martyrdom,
Freedom from time and space,
Martyrdom of life and breath.

Sonnet: On Holy Matrimony
When man, woman join in Matrimony,
And take their vow to live their life on earth,
As husband, wife, in Lord’s name, not money:
Blessed are they both and those who brought them forth.
True marriage is when God solemnizes
The union of the opposite sexes,
For bringing forth children without vices,
Thro’ sacred, heterosexual nexus!
When persons of the same sex associate,
It is a sinful union alone;
They may express their love, not procreate-
How can they call it marriage, on their own?
Homosexuality’s sin in eyes of God;
Attracting Almighty God’s awful rod!

Be hard at men.
A man of commonsense
Will not value a woman
The less for her reluctance,
At his instant advance
Or for no acceptance
Without a scrutiny,
For a matrimony;
Contrarily she being, he’ll hold
Her weak in commonsense
And low in estimate,
As, having but one cast
For her Life, she shall cast
That Life away at once,
And make matrimony
Mere a mockery
Like that she leapt in the dark.
Women, be hard at men.

Mind in Sex is Supreme
Union of mind, not followed
By union of body,
Still sustains pleasure.
Union of body, not accompanied
by union of mind
Gives instant pleasure.
Orgasm exists as
Bodies and minds together fuse.

As much as I value an union of all the states, I would not admit the southern states into the union, unless they agreed to the discontinuance of this disgraceful trade, because it would bring weakness and not strength to the union.

All the martyrs in the history of the world are not sufficient to establish the correctness of an opinion. Martyrdom, as a rule, establishes the sincerity of the martyr, — never the correctness of his thought. Things are true or false in themselves. Truth cannot be affected by opinions; it cannot be changed, established, or affected by martyrdom. An error cannot be believed sincerely enough to make it a truth.

It has no enforceable standards to stop a union from conspiring with employers to keep another stronger union out or from negotiating contracts with lower pay and standards that members of another union have spent a lifetime establishing.

It's like there was the Union, and then there's the Union Management. In some of the strikes that I covered when I saw the strike starting to break, wasn't necessarily when Management was giving in, more so than when the strikers were at odds with the Union Management.

Marriage In God’s Eyes
A wife, by God, was given to me, bound together by God at the start,
In the union of Holy Matrimony, separated never, till death do we part.
In marriage, ordered by God above, brought together to become one,
Led by The Spirit and God’s Love; being held together by God’s Son.
A mate from God, for me to cleave; a partner from Him for all my life,
Placed by my side, never to leave, my dear friend indeed, is my wife.
A helper always to be by my side; in ups and downs, through all time.
A relationship never to be denied, for I am my wife’s and she is mine.
Marriage has been instituted for all, through The Creator’s own decree,
Decreed by God before man’s fall, as the means for building a family.
For the man shall leave his family, and a woman shall leave her home,
And then together the two shall be, through God a family of their own.
Marriage, was God’s first institution, for the caring of God’s very own,
As this was The Lord’s resolution, so man would not have to be alone.
Man and woman formally knit together, through a Decree of The Lord,
Bound as couple by God forever; one union that is not to be ignored.
In each marriage, that is bound by God, in each and every walk of life.
He shall lead you with staff and rod, when together you lean on Christ.
For as The Lord and our Creator, God knows just how lives can mesh,
And with Jesus as your sustainer, you’ll be certain to remain one flesh.

The reality is that no one can be forced to join a union against their will, and a union cannot take action against those who decide not to join their union.

Rose Of Martyrdom
Is there anyone here
for whom it's wholly clear
which way he wants to stay
come to light, come on: appear.
All the searchers around
look what they have found:hard life
still blind they don't hear, the sound
Rose of martyrdom a mighty storm against boredom
no deadlock each step
a thorn to the rose of martyrdom.
At the end of the game
you've been failing insane
you feel it was not real
tears have just one name.
There's no cure,
no cure for death don't wanna live to regret.
It makes no sense after all
nobody can catch the fall
no rain will wash up the pain
'till we get the call.

Matrimony
Well, Im saving this dress for my wedding day
Momma wouldnt have it any other way
She says when she married, her waist was twenty three
I guess Ill never wear it anyway
I dont believe I care to marry
Though I cannot explain exactly why
It somehow seems to me that matrimony is misery
Simply a faster way to die
Im saving all my money for my wedding day
You know my momma wouldnt have it any other way
She says when she married, she didnt have a dime
But I guess Ill spend that money some other way
Because I dont believe I care to marry
Though I cannot explain exactly why
It somehow seems to me that matrimony is misery
Simply a faster way to die
Well, Im saving my best thing for my wedding day
Because my poppa wouldnt have it any other way
He says if I lose it early, Ill have thrown my life away
But I swear Ill use my cherry my own way
I dont believe I care to marry
Though I cannot explain exactly why
It somehow seems to me that matrimony is misery
Simply a faster way to die.

Martyr’s Crown
knowing and accepting
is everything
faith to pray to try
to face tyranny
overcome all that will
oppose oppress us
victory is promised won
knowing martyrdom
that though we may fall
upon our witness sacrifice
will be born divine courage
upon which others may stand
testimonies witness endures
suffering tortured death
Christian witness
offering up life for truth
Saint Stephen
whose name means crown
suffering martyrdom crowned
sanctification of God’s name

A Man
I am a man as a man I've been told
Bacon is brought to the house in this mold
Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord
Years I have groveled repentance ignored
And I have been blamed
And I have repented
I'm working my way toward our union mended
I am man who has grown from a son
Been crucified by enraged women
I am son who was raised by such men
I'm often reminded of the fools I'm among
And I have been shamed
And I have relented
I'm working my way toward our union mended
And I have been shamed
And I have repented
I'm working my way toward our union mended
we don't fare well with endless reprimands
we don't do well with a life served as a sentence
this won't work well if you're hell bent on your offence
I am a man who understands your resistance
I am a man who still does what he can
to dispel our archaic reputation
I am a man who has heard all he can
cuz I don't fare well with endless punishment
Cuz I have been blamed and I have repented
I'm working my way toward our union mended
And we have been blamed and we have repented
I'm working my way toward our union mended
