    war what is it good for
    the rumors of war
    the rumors of war and of hell
    but if we choose another way and say
    lets not war today
    instead lets be humble and find the Utopian day could be the 8th day who knows?
    strife
    i just believe it write not to store up old strife
    but let it go and let time heal
    heaven knows what we feel
    ask no revenge but love
    for only that thought comes from above
    for you don't know but yet you do
    to walk among those who hurt
    but now its over and done
    even in loosing you have won
    because all of us must seek the son
    in one way or another we see
    but paths we walk no matter how different
    someday we will all see a possibility
    loves children and be one
    forever to walk and know
    just where we were and where we go
    just where that is as yet i don't know

    EAT SMOKE ALCOHOL DRUGS: I CHOOSE TO WRITE by Sophialaurenea Y. Destine MATTHEW SHEPARD I don't personally know you, but I know you're God's creation; this is absolutely true. Homosexuality is difficult for most people to chew. Those people should get a clue. We all sin, too! It's commendable how you fought for rights that are gays' and lesbians' due. I'm heterosexual; I know you would accept me. Matthew, you wouldn't kill and hang me from a tree. If only they knew your true essence and could see, but they were too judgmental to let you be. The Creator mixed all of us in the same glue. It fracture my heart to lose a positive human be like you. Matthew, I wish the hatred would cease because it is making me so blue; but most importantly I wish we were friends. I would be loyal and true. I am sadden that www.iUniverse.com did so poorly on my book. I would really welcome THE READERS to read "EAT SMOKE ALCOHOL DRUGS: I CHOOSE TO WRITE. I am going through a legal dilemma of harrassment and life threatening situation from Mrs. Catherine Alvarez. I feel I most apologize to my neighbors and staff for being spiritual gifted. Mrs. Alvarez got everyone prejudging that I am insane, liar, etc, etc. She is bullying me because I refuse to speak to her. Catherine Alvarez told my most painful secrets. She got the rest of my neighbors to haze me so terribly. They called me "loser, Snitch, _itch, and so on. I followed the advice of staff and ignore her. I have nothing towards gays, transgenders, bisexuals. It's thier body. I am heterosexual. I am not attractive sexually to Mrs. Catherine Alvarez. I feel strongly she shouldn't force her feelings on me. She has ridicule me, slander my name and reputation. My mattress was slashed and I am in fear for my life. Why can't my neighbors see this situation is esculating? The manager blocked the restrainning order that was suppose to be serve to MS. Alvarez. Reads, I leave it in God's hand. I will remain positive.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
