Shittily did he speak to the lady And did deserve a rebuke at the least. Perhaps a slap on the chop Would have served betterTo curb such base indiscipline.Most high among the prioritiesOf civil human socializationIs the control of the bastard tongueWhen it goes out from under the ruleOf a parental spirit of decency.Let children […]

Bowie Wrestling! Class of 2019 Thanks for the medal! And the “pic” with coach Phillips! (Yeah, I give it a stare Sitting in my living room chair. Thoughts drifting to the past, Those days on the grapplers’ mat.) You know it’s the sport coming down Way before basketball was around.It’s the sport of Jesus and […]

Bowie Wrestling Hall of Fame Class of 2019, Bringing back memories. Thanks for your work so grand! Got that medal hanging on my shelf.Like some curious elf,I look at it from my chairGiving it a smile with a stare.The sport sharpens the soul;Can’t blame some other fool.It’s the sport of the Book.Open it up and give […]

Matt is to Matthew What John is to Johann, So be cool and casual When dealing with a name;Don’t concern yourself with fame.That will come if it is dueDespite anything you may do.Let your name be made by your deedsNot the pursuit of your egoist needs.It’s His name you must liftLest you get caught in […]

“Is your new guru smarter than your father?” one might ask, To which the child might say, “Indeed he is.” “And does he love the truth as well as he?” To which the child might reply, “Indeed!” “Then by what standard will you judge a proposition? Have you a means of coming to some decision? […]

The nation belongs “under God.” So when it is obscured by the fog And its glory is sullied and paled, Its righteous ones scorned and jailed, Ours is to call it back to its origin: A people “indivisible” and “under God”!Maintain the truth for the next generation;You have children inheriting your nation.What will it be […]

Thinking of that time when we are up there with the Lord. He is with a body but we are not! We are, indeed, happy to be with Him, But we are missing that glorified body that He has! We lack nothing and yet we want to be like HimIn EVERY way and still wait there […]

Oh, the beach! Where pure is the air And the family is there! The ocean cleans our bodies (And serves as our potty). Kids are rolling in water and sandAnd we are our own band.We may get a little burned,But long ago we learnedThat the fun was worth it all.Then it’s back home ’til fallAnd […]
