From the author of: The Family In The Car A Revelation The Lord Is Not Your Husband Lord yes, Lover no Coming Spring, 2009!

Existing

Existing Noises, curses, poverty all around There’s hardly a moment when there is no sound. Sad faces, stagnation, ambitions low. Nothing is fast, it all seems so slow.

You Alone

You Alone You wish to move that block of stone, to make an opening, to pave a way. You steadily push it before you. Sometimes you tire. But somehow, within, you find the strength to push. Your walk is like beach sand.

Caged

Caged Freedom to dwell wherever I tread Not confined to locations with boundaries Zoning, districts, busing Unleash me so I can roam free To see mountains and rivers and trees of all sorts To open up and breathe in fresh air Somewhere where the sky is not blocked but in plain view Uncage me so I can go FREE.

A Blank Sheet

A Blank Sheet They enter blameless into this world, like a blank sheet of paper. New, fresh, clean, spotless, Just waiting to be written on, Who will be the first to write? Will it be Ms. Incest, Mr. and Mrs. Poverty, Madam Rape to name a few? Or, maybe Sir Death will sign in before the others do.

How Do You Really Feel?

How Do You Really Feel? Good morning. How are you? I’m fine. How are you? Are you always fine when you say those words? Or are you being repetitious in your everyday greetings. If you stop to say how you really feel, Your morning greetings might turn into evening goodnights.

When Night Falls

When Night Falls When night falls, do you have a place to lay your head? Or do you search for a cubby hole or a card board box to crawl into? Maybe you’re blessed enough to have relatives or friends, Or maybe you’re not. While it is day, it’s okay You can walk the streets or seek shelter in a mall or restaurant. But when night falls, It’s natural to find a place to lie. While others are going into their abodes and shutting the doors, You seek a safe, warm, refuge just to lay your head. Copy… Continue

The Heart That Keeps On Beating

THE HEART THAT KEEPS ON BEATING It has the most important job. Wounded yet it never skips a beat. There is no gluing or stitching involved, it just continues to work, as if oblivious to attacks. It’s a wonder and many are in awe of it. It’s the pumper of life. Sometimes it’s carelessly handled and is crushed easily. Many are not conscious of its fragileness. It is the holder of emotions and takes a direct hit when trampled upon. Shattered, broken and cracked in many places, however never gi… Continue

Worry

WORRY Worry is to feel or express great care and anxiety, to fret. To worry is to have something constantly on the mind and agonizing over it. It can give a sick feeling. It can also be expressed through speech and action. The mind is agitated and there are complaints, there is impatience and irritability. In other words, there is no peace. Sometimes worry can consume hours, days even weeks out of your life. You try to throw it off, but it clings like static. It clings like a tick on an unsusp… Continue

JUST A FOUR LETTER WORD

Just a four letter word with powerful meaning Something to hang onto when there is no rope left Nothing tangible, nothing you can touch Yet we cling to it, some for dear life REALLY! HOPE, the little four letter word It has kept many holding on to it, When there was no reason to trust its magic, Nor its ability to keep them from falling Can’t imagine the multitude of folk who depend on its ability to deliver What would it be like without HOPE?

NPR's All Thing's Considered

Director Jason Reitman Finds His Feet 'Up In The Air'

Director Jason Reitman may be young, but he comes from Hollywood stock — his dad is Ghostbusters creator Ivan Reitman — and he has already directed two well-received feature films, Juno and Thank You For Smoking. His latest is Up in the Air, starring George Clooney. Reitman says it's his first really mature work as a moviemaker.

Tiger Woods Withdraws From Tournament

Tiger Woods withdrew Monday from his own golf tournament following injuries he sustained in a car crash near his home in Florida. Rumors have swirled about the crash and Woods' personal life since Friday's incident. In a statement, golf's No. 1 player said the crash was his fault, but did not elaborate.

Examining Obama's Afghan Speech

President Obama outlines his strategy for Afghanistan at a speech at West Point on Tuesday. Obama will likely face a skeptical audience; support for the war is in decline. Ambassador Wendy Sherman, special adviser to President Clinton, and Michael Gerson, chief speechwriter to President George W. Bush, offer their insight.

In Seattle, Search Continues For Shooting Suspect

Police are searching a Seattle neighborhood Monday for the suspect in the shooting deaths of four police officers from a Tacoma, Wash., suburb. Earlier, a SWAT team stormed a house in the area where Maurice Clemmons was thought to be hiding, but he had already escaped.

U.S. Warns Lenders On Mortgage Foreclosures

The Obama administration said Monday it is stepping up pressure on the banking industry to prevent foreclosures. The Treasury Department says it could levy fines on companies that aren't doing enough. The move is an attempt to push the banks to do a better job of implementing the administration's plan to lower payments for homeowners who are in trouble.

Listeners Recall First Time On The Internet

In the occasional series to mark the 40th anniversary of the Internet, listeners share stories about their first e-mail, Web page and instant message. One listener recalls her first foray into a chat room, another remembers her seventh grade computer class, and a third relives connecting to the Internet from Papua New Guinea.

Iran Defies West With Plans For New Nuclear Sites

Iran says its decision to build 10 more uranium-enrichment plants is a direct response to an IAEA resolution criticizing Iran for secret nuclear activities. Iran may not have the capacity to carry out the plan, but its announcement has prompted talk of new sanctions.

Investors Skittish Amid Dubai Debt Crisis

Troubles in the emirate of Dubai are making investors nervous around the world. A government-run financial conglomerate wants a time-out on debt payments, stirring fears of another bubble tied to risky bets on real estate. Dubai has invested in huge luxury projects at home and abroad.

Senate Weighs Health Care Overhaul

The Senate began debate Monday on the Democrats' plan to overhaul the nation's health care system. The measure faces an uphill battle, however, because of a dispute over abortion coverage and a government-run insurance option.

Bloomberg News Reporter Remembered

Bloomberg News reporter Mark Pittman died last week at age 52. Although he was not well-known outside Bloomberg, Pittman was a legend inside it.
