Men or boys?My 2 cents worth for Charlotte and whomever else wants to read it.More Like This
Maybe I am too into terminology but there are men, there are boys and then there are predators.
I am just short of 1/2 Native American and I was taught and believe that there is a specific path that one must walk to be considered a man. One of the big markers on that path is the ultimate respect for the life givers and mothers and grandmothers, WOMEN. If one cannot achieve this state of being then one is not a MAN one is still a boy and should be treated by all within the tribe as thus.

when writers cryAwake on strong, black coffee drinksMore Like This
Words on paper, liquid ink
Dreams of pen tips, future lies
Tragic stories, quotes of the wise
Nights have carved their dark, deep valleys
In the hollows of my eyes
For you see, my friend, when writers cry
There are no tears, their cheeks are dry
But ink dipped fingers, worn out wrists
Chewed up nails and bloody fists
You see, it's strange when writers cry
Their hearts are true, their words don’t lie
They mourn in silence for a few days
Of paper cuts and tear-less haze
Of coffee mugs and smoky paper
Liquid spills, and water vapor
Sorry dreams and wasted hours
Putrid smells and dying flowers
