I am just a throw a way person
continually attempting to prove
that I valuable... enough to be kept... to receive with sincerity
acknowledgment
of my worth as a person, as someone who deserves to be loved and appreciated ...for himself.
I refuse to be appreciated... merely for the material wealth
that I am perceived to produce, provide or possess.
I do not consider it appreciation to be loved
out of the perception...that I may be utilized
to satisfy your sick fantasies, mine, or both...concurrently.

I am a person.. a man
who feels and loves.
In spite of what any stereotypical
female, boss, or anyone else in society may wish to believe
out of their own... self-imposed, or society imposed ignorance,
I have the ability to experience, create, feel, and exhibit
compassion.

I was not created for the purpose of being a throw-a-way person.
So I won;t be!!!
I will not be... simply because
I actively refuse... to be!!!

The Problem with Butterflies



                                                       The problem with Butterflies
                                                    ***************************
                                                                                                                     BY: Keith H. Seymour

If I were to go back...and change the past,
I would likely “presently” change the future.
so If I went back to correct my mistakes,
and prevented myself
from
hurting...and being hurt by others,
would I be ignorant because of mistakes not learned from, or would learn from other mistakes
Maybe mistakes that.. are not as bad, or even worse..

Would I be more compassionate
and a better judge of character, or would I be hurt by... and hurt
a different set of people?
Remaining just as hurtful and vulnerable as I am now?

Is it safer to deal with the horrors of the past or to find a way to eliminate them?
So as to have the possibility of a better future without knowing...weather
our futures will be the equivalent of something
that is a comfortable coolness, a hotter hell, or a life that is just as complacent and tepid
as that current state of being?

These are problems owned by even the most beautiful butterfly.
That butterfly... flaps it's glorious wings
without knowing
the whether, wherefore, or why.
