A Brief Philosophy: The Greatest Enemy of Equality - 2/7/11

"The greatest enemy of equality is money; as long as it exists, there will be those that parlay it, those that benefit from it, those that yearn for it, those that need it, and those that reject it. Economic differences beget economic disparities, which engender feelings of inequality. Simply put: as long as someone can have more money (power) than someone else, there will never be true equality."

A Freestyle Piece: Speak or Be Weak - 2/7/11

"Look at you: another American idle. Inundated by the tabloids, ensnared by American Idol. It's vital that you trigger your revival; the survival of your free thought has one great rival. The media is waging a war that you will not find on wikipedia. They seek to disarm your mind, to make you politically correct. Opinions then fall under their dominion, and passionate statements are checked. Speak or be weak."

A Quote: A Free-thinking Intelligent Woman - 2/7/11

"A free-thinking intelligent woman is amazing. She is a creation of unparalleled beauty. That is true physically, but is truly most appropriate in reference to her mind and soul. Her soul is a vast galaxy that contains the births of planets and the deaths of stars. Her mind a solar system containing the supernovae of ideas, the comets of fantasy, the meteors of judgment, the moons of desires, and the suns of truths."

A Freestyle Piece: Coulda-been - 2/7/11

"The possibilities tower like megalithic reminders; I'm mired in a canyon of coulda-been's, wishing Cupid would've been kinder. The finder of your heart will know treasures galore, but that's only if he can make it through the walls left by those who tried before. The more I think about how you closed the door that I opened to your heart, the more I'll wonder what could've resulted from some reciprocity on your part..."

A Freestyle Piece: Let's Do Better - 2/7/11

"She's heard it all before; bring something new. You could even step out of the box and say something true. Any eye can see sexy, any mouth can say fine; only a certain type of guy would speak on and appreciate her mind. If you don't believe me, go out and try it; call a woman beautiful and she won't buy it. We have to come harder and be more honest; expectations are low, let's get more on us."

A Freestyle Piece: If Love's A Crime - 2/7/11

"If love's a crime, then lock me up and throw away the key. You don't deserve punishment though, so stop being tough and go away with me. let's flee the naysayers and elude the saboteurs; leave all the day-slayers and the rampant lures. Let's indulge in our infraction with intimate intimations of illicit interaction. I broke the law when I fell for you, but I'll uphold the law I pledged when I said I'd care for you."

A Brief Philosophy: To Discover A Man's Limits - 2/7/11

"To discover a man's limits, speak the unvarnished truth to him. An angry response shows he's limited by his temper. A melancholy response shows he's limited by his emotions. A speechless or baffled response shows he's limited by his expectations. A response of denial shows he's limited by his inability to accept inconvenient truth. A calm response is one of acceptance, understanding that knowledge is limitless."
