The bow cannot always stand bent, nor can human frailty subsist without some lawful recreation.

Frailty
With age advancing,
Is it harder to climb up?
Is it easier to get fatigue?
Is there weight loss?
You are in the grip of frailty.
Frailty has a link to testosterone.
Mind, the supply depletes
When you divert yourself
From love, romance and sex.

Hell Bent For Leather
Seek him here, seek him on the highway
Never knowing when hell appear
All await, engines ticking over
Hear the roar as they sense the fear
Wheels! a glint of steel and a flash of light!
Screams! from a streak of fire as he strikes!
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Black as night, faster than a shadowcrimson flare from a raging sun
An exhibition, of sheer precision
Yet no one knows from where he comes
Fools! self destruct cannot take that crown
Dreams! crash one by one to the ground
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Theres many who tried to prove that theyre faster
But they didnt last and they died as they tried
Theres many who tried to prove that theyre faster
But they didnt last and they died as they tried
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Hell bent, hell bent for leather

I think everybody has a bent, and the key is to follow that bent. So much human wastage comes from people who are doing things with their lives that they really aren't happy with.

Madseason - Bent
==================
(4:16)
If I fall along the way
pick me up and dust me off.
and if I get too tired to make it
be my breath so I can walk
If I need some other love
give me more than I can stand
and when my smile gets old and faded
wait around I'll smile again
shouldn't be so complicated
just hold me and then
just hold me again
can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
get put back together
you're breaking me in
and this is how we will end
with you and me bent
If I couldn't sleep could you sleep
could you paint me better off
could you sympathize with my needs
I know you think I need a lot
I started out clean but I'm jaded
just phoning it in
just breaking the skin
can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
get put back together
you're breaking me in
and this is how we will end
with you and me bent
start bending me
It's never enough
I feel all your pieces
start bending me
Keep bending me until I'm completely broken in
shouldn't be so complicated
just touch me and then
just touch me again
can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
get put back together
you're breaking me in
and this is how we will end
with you and me bent

We have seen that in this country in the last few years, particularly on Wall Street, with the rise of the old human frailty of greed. This occurs when people begin to serve only their own needs to the detriment of everyone else.

The creation and the recreation
Desire across sex is sex.
The sexual desire is the peak.
The sexual pleasure is the strongest.
Sex is the trunk giving out branches:
Love, lust, interest, wit, awareness,
Curiosity, venture, poise, renown,
Sacrifice, empathy, recreation,
Without sex, one is purposeless.
We condemn sex, craving secretly..
Sex is creation and recreation.

The outdoors, the beautiful environment, both in fresh and salt water. And the thing that concerns me is the amount of kids that stand on street corners, or go into pinball parlours, and call it recreation.
Although I do wrong, I do not the wrongs that I am charged with doing; the wrong that I do is through the frailty of human nature, like other men. No man lives without fault.

When Laws Are A Crime Against Humanity
Is it always lawful to follow every letter of the law?
Is it ever lawful to deliberately break a nation's law?
What if laws themselves are a crime against humanity?
Some say may my country ever be right but my country
right or wrong this sentiment will accept support tyranny.
I the Carl Schurz version do advocate firmly resolutely
'My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept right;
and if wrong, to be set right.' Is a moral conscience fight.
To slaves who tremble fearfully obey unjust laws
I say many famous past so called great civilizations;
passed laws making it legal to own fellow human beings
live stock to be bought sold beaten killed at whim of owners;
to aid free slaves help in any way was against grim cruel laws
to be caught in such attempts meant torture death sentences;
yet the right of all human beings to religious personal freedoms is
a sacred indelible right great civilizations uphold high principles.

What actions are the most excellent? Those, certainly, which most powerfully appeal to the great primary human affections: to those
elementary feelings which subsist permanently in the race, and which are independent of time. These feelings are permanent and the same; that which interests them is permanent and the same also.

Who Made Hell?
Who made hell
God has made the earth an other heaven
Beautiful land, mountain, rivers and ocean
Wonderful creatures, plants, birds, animals,
Day and night, air; to subsist lot of materials.
He created human, to protect this heaven,
Then why human is perturbing his creation?
Why he is making weapon, gun and canon?
Why creating hatred and killing the human?
To show power, forces others to succumb,
To fill own desire make few of them numb,
For own pleaser causes others to suffer,
For own richness he grabs wealth of others?
To answer the profound question, can you tell
It was a heaven, who made the earth hell?

To Be Just Human
i have no wish but just to be human
to be before you and we talk and then
i say something that is wrong
and then you all laugh and i too laugh
the way you laugh at me and then i tell you
thanks, i am just like you, my brothers and sisters,
i ask an apology for my frailty.

ThE BelOveD LanD...
Ohh Palestine
You will never be alone
Your people are fighting for your free will
And that is undeniably shone
Your truth and your pain
Has stood enough
Your tears and your bane
Has made us tough
To stand for your independence
And to stand for your pride
And all we want you to know
Is that we are for eternity on your side
We intentionally forbid your grief
Thus we work hard to be
The people you intend us to subsist
The ones that will set you free
We pray for your loved ones there
We pray every single day
That God will help them reside
With no pain and despair all the way
May your freedom and liberty
Assemble in every person’s hand
And at last live with autonomy
In your devoted and beloved land.

Today... 'The Express Image of the Person of God
We see the Fathers Glory in the face of Christ
Express image of His Being in flesh disguised
In Him we see the Fullness of the Godhead dwell
We're made complete in Jesus our Emmanuel
On the mount He shone in glorious deity
Shining through His physical human frailty
None can comprehend such a great wonder as this
Beyond question the mystery of godliness
The mighty and infinite God with man has dwelt
The limitations of human existence felt
He came to earth to suffer for our sins and die
But is now seated with the Majesty on high
(see also the additional information in the Poet's notes box below)
The humorous man recognizes that absolute purity, absolute justice, absolute logic and perfection are beyond human achievement and that men have been able to live happily for thousands of years in a state of genial frailty.
