My Awesome Prayer
Sometimes I pray to be awesome
and I wait for that gift to come.
Open letter to J. Bieber redux
Just over a year ago I wrote an open letter to Justin Bieber. None of my posts garner much attention and usually are forgotten fairly quickly. As you can see, this one received one like (from a friend) on WordPress. I think it also received one or two likes on my Facebook page. All in all, it was not a well-received piece. But that’s okay, I’m used to that response.
However, as it sat high in the blogosphere, it actually received a couple of comments.
The first one from “Jared”:
Really how can I argue with such a well thought and literate statement such as this? As you can see, I couldn’t. Expecially when Jared so ably pointed out there is no harm in the consumptions of hamrless substances. There is no refuting such a insightful dispute.
Today I received yet another comment on this dormant post from smh:
So… this makes everything all right? Perhaps Mr. Bieber didn’t post the original status. If that’s the case it makes it even worse. That’s the persona he is giving off to people? That’s the example he’s setting? Whether he typed the words or someone typed it for him that is still the attitude he flagrantly exhibits. And that is my whole point exactly.
In the end, despite the two comments that this post received, I stand by my statement. Mr. Jared and Mr or Ms smh you have not convinced me otherwise. But thanks for stopping by!

Standing at the front door
looking in, looking in
remembering
what it feels like to be inside.
Randomly weird compliments
We were walking down the hallway together.
She works in a different department but I’ve seen her around the office. We smile politely and say hi to one another. You know, when you’re friendly to someone but you have no idea what his or her name is. We’ve all been there I think. That point of oh-dear-it’s-too-late-to-ask-your-name-because-you-think-I-already-know-it. In other words, an awkward phase.

Olympics 2014
I could have been an Olympian –
trust me, my efforts would be so bold –
but I’m not fast, fit, or flexible –
and I don’t really like the cold –
if it weren’t for those few details though –
you can be sure, I’d bring home the gold!

You’re Still a Nice Person Shower
So, I just celebrated my 40th birthday last August. Forty and not married. As if in, still single. Do you know what irks me the most about being single in my forties? The fact I never received one gathering devoted to me receiving presents. In other words, a shower.
The Call
Enoch received a call
and said, “I am but a lad,
I will fail,
I can’t do that.”
The Lord responded,
“Go forth and do.
Trust in me
and I will be with you.”
