POEM: No Shame

I've got no shame in my game
cause I know I'm not lame
and while my hair is not tamed
step in my way - you might get maimed
but seriously, I love my name
and I'm not driven by fame
but God knows why I came
so as I keeping burning my flame
Don't think I'm just the same
as I was back in the game
cause I don't live in a picture frame
and I don't play lil kids games

POEM: Top That

BOOM!
I clap
and tap
in rhythm
BANG!
can you hear
the band
as they
play the
sounds of life
CLANG!
as the cymbals
rang
I sang
then jammed
with the music
that never stops
you can't
top
that

Moving forward

It's pet peeves time again. What really riles me up? Anything stupidness does. However, I can't stay peeved for every foolish thing. I have one grey hair and I'm happy with it. I am not trying to get anymore right now!

It's all about learning from mistakes and moving on. As you read this post, you're probably thinking that the ribbon is being unraveled but it's not. You just have to learn to move on. Life is not that serious. It's short and you don't have to try to fit in with the popular crowd or follow the popular creed. Just do you and be happy with your choices. Try to make the best decisions and enjoy the simple things. Appreciate life and love yourself!

POEM: All I need

In my place
at my pace
in this little place
beside a small case
all I ask for is
Peace
a small release
no rice and peas
an unsigned lease
as I head to the east
all I need is
Peace

POEM: About Play

It's not everyday
that you have the most to say
but in some way
you just feel to play
instead of being gray
come what may
you'll have to pray
you have debts to pay
and you carry your tray
but be a ray
of sunshine or a bale of hay
let's sit on the Cay
picks whelks on the bay
and be happy like a Blue Jay

Where do you stand?

No one likes to fail or look bad. Most of us try our best to excel at everything we do. However, there are days when we don't feel like pushing forward and putting out our best. During these times, we have to pray for balance and still try our best. Sometimes, I am guilty of that too and it may make me insubordinate. I don't want to be a disloyal employee but sometimes when you feel that there is unfair treatment, you tend to react. We are all only human and will feel hurt, discomfort or ill-feelings.

No one is perfect and I for sure never try to be. I believe that people should use their best judgement and that we should try to comprimise and be good to each other. I get annoyed when I am asked to do things and do not get the credit. It's always someone else to look good even if they get a bigger salary. I get even more peeved when persons are supposed to be qualified and they can not carry out their duties. Therefore, others have to do the work for the incompetent.

These are the things we face but we just have to keep going. I want to stay simple me. I'm not looking for the biggest salary or position. I want respect for what I can do. I want the opportunity to excel and spearhead projects. I want a lot of things and I am putting myself in place to do what I need to do. A job is a small part of me because there is so much else in life to accomplish.

I may fail at some things and I may look bad once in a while but I will keep pushing. I know my experience and education so those who want others to do their work will eventually be found out. I know how to do mine!
