Saddened
I so loved his voice, and this is a sad day in the literary world. I think his honest candor about the life of men who chose certain lifestyles was exceptional. I came upon his book quite by accident then proceeded to read all of them in short time. I will miss His words and talent.

Times are hard
Times are hard
As I walk along my path of destiny
Tiny wrinkles and lines define what is seen
I cringe at the blasphemy of matrimony
Phony
The word some have committed to this beautiful bond
That creates Security
I shake my head
When I get out of bed
And place my palms
In an
Up turned position
As I beseech my Father
Another day
I walk among the living dead
Dead to the purpose of what
One has been created for
Therefore
NOTHING
Is what is produced
How can this be truth?

TALE OF THE WAYWARD REV-E-REND
Okay
This is how I will begin
Doing my daily thing
Reading poetry and
Making new lyrical
Friends
When all of a sudden
In the right corner of my eye
This is what I view
I see you
And it is I
You are trying to befriend
I am shocked and
Somewhat put out
A BISHOP IS TRYING TO
GIVE A SHOUT OUT
I cannot believe what
I am seeing
Got his collar on
In the main pic
How is he BP’ing
Now I don’t want to
Be disrespectful
So I ignore his hail
THIS ATTEMPT ALSO FAILED… Continue
