A Woman Will Talk About You
By Brooklen Borne
I was sitting in a restaurant, when I over heard a conversation between these two ladies in a booth behind me. I wasn’t eaves dropping, they were talking loud enough and didn’t care who heard what they were saying. One of the ladies was telling the other how pissed off she was about her intimate date with some guy she had the night before. I know if I was the guy she was talking about, I would stay in seclusion for… Continue

A DYING BREED
A Dying Breed
By Brooklen Borne
As I look around during my travels here in the states and abroad, I noticed a dying breed or shall I say an endangered species. We as a people have become so use to not seeing the endangered, that we find our self watching in amazement; when we do see one. Society has changed so much that kids are not taught about the endangered species, because if they were, there wouldn’t be a world epidemic.
This rear breed has been mentally hunted… Continue

A DEDICATION

I stood before you naked with both hands slightly away from my sides, palms facing forward toward you. I could see the sorrow in your eyes when you looked at me. I had a frown upon my forehead and what should have been clear liquid coming from my eyes were replaced by tears of blood.
You reached out for me but drew your hands back each and every time you saw my body jerked. You walked around to my rear and noticed objects sticking… Continue

44 BLACK
44 BLACK
By Brooklen Borne
For eight long years, these United States and the world has been turned upside down and inside out, by one family and their personal quest without regards to the citizens who elected them to the highest office in the land of the free world. Their names are 41 and 43. Forty-one became greedy and took his citizens to war against a man and his country in a foreign land for the sake of black gold.

"It’s Crunch Time!”, This is a new children’s book by Marie Brewer.

It discusses acceptable behavior, honesty, good self-image, respect for females and animals, appreciation for teachers/school, choosing good friends. The book also talks about resisting gangs, guns, drugs, violence, alcohol and bad influences. Let's attack the behavior, not the boy.
