The new are intrguing
Anything new or any person new
Are readily accepted
In place of the established ones
Not that the new are superior
But they are intriguing..

There is nothing noble in being superior to some other person. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self.
Bad, yet superior
Disloyalty is evil
But still superior to infidelity
Ingratitude is bad
But still superior to betrayal
Meanness is low
But still superior to imprudence.
Revenge is cruel
But still superior to assault.

Put Me First
I accepted
that you did not put me first.
But you kept
putting me last. All the time.
Last
was the last place I wanted to be.
I once wanted
to be put first. By someone. Sometime.
I accepted that you
did not put me first.
But last
was a place, that I could not, bear to be.
Last was a place,
that ones true love, cannot placed be.
Ones true love,
is someone we run to, have to see.
I accepted that you did not
put me first.
But you
did not love me enough my love.
You neglected me,
rejected me, when me you did not see.
Therefore you
are going to lose my love.
Do not
forever try my sacrifice love.
Or else
I shall die, when I say goodbye, my love.

Justice is what is established; and thus all our established laws will necessarily be regarded as just without examination, since they are established.

A Person's Worth Is Invaluable
A person's worth,
Isn't in their ability...
To obtain worldly possessions.
Or in the quality of them.
Can that person nourish others,
With encouragement?
Can that person be a true friend...
When the time for being one,
Shows what kind of skin...
That person 'is'
And exposes from within.
Being able to spend cash,
And make a quick dash on trips...
Or do a name dropping of notables,
Doesn't mean a thing...
If a person is negligent,
To extend heartfelt feelings...
Not too many can express or mention.
A person's worth is invaluable,
When a genuineness appears...
To surface time and again.
And that is proven to be dependable,
Without a doubt or a need to question.
Can that person nourish others,
With encouragement that does not end?
A person's worth will unearth,
Who and what comes first...
Regardless of those impressions made,
Someday that will fade...
Long after established ties with others,
Have remained to stay!

Blushes are hindrance
Things you express in verses,
Cannot be stated in a letter.
Things you can tell in letters,
Cannot be uttered in person.
Person to person, we are
Wordless, shackled by blushes.

Not Belonging
i'm lost in a world where nobody understands me,
whether it who i am or who i'm becoming,
will i ever be accepted in this place we call life?
or will that all this ever be, a place called 'life'?
at times i wonder,
what the hell am i doing here?
people seem to keep me here,
but, is that really what i want?
to be on this earth?
unhappy and feeling like a slave?
because that what it feels like i became
just a person in this world that don't belong.

The truth suffers
He is mean and still superior to me
As I am greedy that he is not.
He is possessive and still superior,
As I am covetous that he is not.
He visits prostitutes and still superior,
As I have an eye for cuckolds.
But I am held higher than him.

Truths and lies
When truths reveal and prevail
Many heads will roll down,
Including the revealers.
The buried truths outnumber
The established lies.

Authority is not a quality one person ""has,"" in the sense that he has property or physical qualities. Authority refers to an interpersonal relation in which one person looks upon another as somebody superior to him.

Essence and Existence
Part readily the skin
and readily the pulp,
as readily the tongues
wild apples bore,
eviscerate the cores
and watermelon spit the pits
they cannot swallow.
Let this be done before
the tongues
wild lemons bore
find no cores.

Yes, soren, I agree
What this age needs is not genius
We had enough of them
We need an awakening
Of those who inorder to teach
Must first obey the dictates of death
We study again this
Intriguing machine
Of this person that I am
This individual this you
Never forgetting how God
Has helped us in the hours
Of our needs, the last wish
Everything is nothing but
For his honor and glory.
We speak what we do
We do what we believe

Savor Truth
Part readily the skin
and readily the pulp
and readily the tongues
wild apples bore,
eviscerate the cores
and watermelon spit
the pits they
cannot swallow.
Do this before
you let the tongues
wild lemons bore
find no cores
and you will
savor truth
unlike so many now
still gnawing

Give Me The Love
If I had a choice to be spanked,
Or smothered with love.
I would care less what went on next door.
Or what activity was the more popular!
Give me the love.
I will scream with delight from that!
Knowing that a delivery I accepted,
Was far more appreciated.
And a lesson I can share...
Will be more readily taught!

He who readily believes, will be readily disappointed.
I knew Scotty was going to win. At the beginning of the episode, I was like, 'Scotty, are you ready to win?'. I knew he was going to in my heart. I accepted it. I couldn't pick a more perfect person to get second place to. He's my best friend.

We worked on solving the problem of voice communications in a noisy military environment. We established military codes that are highly audible and invented selection tests for personnel who had a superior ability to recognize sound in a noisy background.

Who is superior?
I dress for my people and you, for yours
I sing for my people and you, for yours.
I walk with my people and you, with yours.
Who of us is superior? Assert.
