About Me

LIFE STORY (IN THE FORM OF A POEM) I remember when the walls used to sweat and freeze. When my grandma stood in line we were thankful for that block of cheese, a piece of loaf bread and 350 degrees...some know but most wasn't as lucky as me. In life we crept up...wasn't winning, but kept up. Any complaints were kept shut, because the projects were a step up. Remember mama crying in church? I understand, now as a man with childish thoughts in the sand. They used to tell her, "you ain't doing nothing, but raising an army for Uncle Sam" raising three kids off spam, pork and beans and ham sandwiches...I am...a product of living hard, excuse me a living God, fighting and beating odds...my momma didn't spare the rod. Now, all three kids in school, community college and moving past the undergrad and bachelors...my little brother has his masters. You reap what you sow, so I'm driving the tractor. You keep what you grow...surviving no longer a factor, but still...I remember when. MyGen Profile Generator

My Interests

Family, Friends, Acting, Poetry, Traveling,...to cut it short "everything that God has to offer

I'd like to meet:

Individuals with a thirst for a better life, regardless of current position. Individuals that know there is a time and a place for everything (and a right and a wrong way to go about it). Individuals with a humble spirit, but confident in their abilities. Individuals that respect themselves as well as others.
