A Very Serious Poem

My mom hung this poem up on our refrigerator. I didn’t read it till a few months ago. But, this poem needs to be read by every women. If you want, you can send it to anyone you want. I recommend it.

~I got flowers today. It wasn’t my birthday or any other special day.

We had our first argument last night,

And he said a lot of cruel things that really hurt me.

I know he was sorry and didn’t mean the things he said

Because he sent me flowers today

I got flowers today. It wasn’t our anniversary or any other special day.

Last night, he threw me into the wall and started to choke me.

It seemed like a nightmare.

It couldn’t believe it was real.

I woke up this morning sore and bruised all over.

I know he must be sorry.

Because he sent me flowers today.

I got flowers today, and it wasn’t Mother’s day or any other special day.

Last night, he beat me again. And it was much worse then all the other times.

If I leave him, what will I do? How will I take care of my kids? What about money?

I’m afraid of him and scared to leave.

But I know he must be sorry.

Because he send me flowers today.

I got flowers today. Today was a special day.

It was the day of my funeral.

Last night, he finally killed me.

He beat me to death.

If only I had gathered enough courage to leave him,

I would not have gotten flowers today.~

Strong words!

 

Words a Guy Should Live By

Ladies and Gentleman, The Man Song...

 

He's the Man .... He's the Man.

I don't take no crud from anybody else, but you.

I wear the pants around here, when I finish with your laundry.

Cause I'm a guy you don't wanna fight, when I say jump you say "Yeah Right!"

I'm the man in this house, until you get home.

He's the Man .... He's the Man.

What I say goes around here, right out the window.

And I don't wanna hear a lot of whining, so I'll shut up.

The sooner you learn who's boss around here, the sooner you can give me my orders dear.

Cause I'm Head Honcho around here, but it's all in my head.

He's the Man .... He's the Man.

And I can have sex anytime, that you want .

Cause I'm a Man who has needs, but they're not that important.

And don't expect any flowers from me, cause if I'm not mistaken you prefer jewelry.

I'm the King in my Castle, when you're not around.

He's the Man .... He's the Man.

And I'll drink and watch sports, whenever I wanna get in trouble.

And I'll come home when I'm good and ready, to sleep on the couch.

Cause a Man's gotta do what a Man's gotta do, and I'm gonna do what you tell me to.

Because I'm Top Dog around here, but I've been neutered ....

He's the Man .... He's the Man.

YOU THE MAN!!!

 

My Favorite Poem

 

The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner

~From my mother’s sleep I fell into the state

And I hunched in it’s belly till my wet fur froze

Six miles from earth lost in my dream of life

I awoke to black flak and the nightmare fighters

When I died, they washed me out of the turret with a hose~

 

It’s a gruesome poem, but at the same time amazing. I don’t know why I like it so much. I guess because I understand it. If you want me to explain it to you, email me at coneflower24@hotmail.com
