" I HAVE A DREAM " DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING

3/16/05 HELLO, AND PEACE TO ALL! I'D LIKE TO SHARE A LITTLE BIT OF ME WITH YOU AND WELCOME YOU TO MY WORLD AND HOPE YOU'RE INSPIRED SOMEHOW TO EXCEL AND GRAVITATE THE BEAUTY OF OTHER WORLDS POSITIVE AND UNKNOWN. THESE ARE SOME OF MY THOUGHTS AS POEMS, PARABLES AND SHORT STORIES. S.HOLMAN ALL COPYRIGHTS(C)2001-2005 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS WASHINGTON, D.C. 20559-6000 WWW.CROWNPUBLISHING.NETFIRMS.COM SELGYPCROWN@YAHOO.COM "BEAUTY" YOU WRITE A RIDICULOUS POEM, AND REALIZE IT NEEDS MENDING. YOU REPHRASE THE WORDING - AND CORRECT THE STORY-LINE, BUT CONCENTRATE NOT ON - THE NEED FOR PERFECTION, BUT LEARN THE BEAUTY - OF SELF-CRITICISM. "FEAR" YOU GO ON AN - INTERVIEW FOR A JOB. YOU GET OFF THE BUS; AND REALIZE YOU ARE - STILL SIX BLOCKS AWAY FROM YOUR DESTINATION. PERHAPS YOU WILL BE LATE. THE AD IN THE PAPER - IS ALREADY A WEEK OLD. OBVIOUSLY, THERE WILL - BE OTHERS VYING FOR THE POSITION. YET, YOU ARE SKILLED, AND DESERVE A CHANCE. IS IT WORTH THE - SIX BLOCK JOURNEY, OR WILL YOU BE - REJECTED FOR INCOMPETENCE? THE ANSWER LYS NOT - IN WHETHER YOU SUCCEED OUT OF FEAR, BUT WHETHER YOU SUCCEED OUT OF FAITH. "JEALOUSY" A RICH YOUNG MAN WHOSE HEALTHY, WISE AND - MAINTAINS A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY, CAREER AND LIVELIHOOD - BECOMES ILL ONE DAY. THE DOCTOR FINDS NO AILMENT. THE MAN IS NOT A HYPOCHONDRIAC. YET, HE IS DIAGNOSED - WITH A MENTAL DISORDER. YOU SEE, HIS NEIGHBOR - AN OLD POOR ILLITERATE PEASANT WHOSE EXTREME HAPPINESS - PROVOKES THIS PATIENT'S JEALOUSY. "RACISM" RACISM - LIKE A FILTHY ANNOYING FLY THAT FEEDS OFF OF ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING - FROM FECES TO THE GARBAGE IN THE GUTTER. "HATE" HATE - LIKE MAGGOTS SQUIRMING TIGHTLY TOGETHER - GROWING FAT OFF EACH OTHERS' BODY SCUM. "INCOMPETENCE" BEING PHYSICALLY DISABLED BY TWO BROKEN LEGS - BUT, NOT REALIZING THE POWER OF A FREE AND BOUNDLESS MIND. "LOVE" LIKE A FLOWER WELL BLOOMED, ADORED AND BEAUTIFUL - TO THE EYE; LIKE A FLOWER STILL BEAUTIFUL, AND WELL LOVED - AS IT SHRIVELS AND DIES. "FAME" YOU'VE REACHED THE SUMMIT PEAK OF - THE MOUNTAIN TOP. LOOKING DOWN - YOU HEAR THE ROAR OF THE CROWD BENEATH YOU - CHEERING FRANTICALLY FOR YOU. SUDDENLY, THERE'S A LANDSLIDE, YOU TRAIL THE SLOPES - TO THE FOOT OF THE MOUNTAIN. LOOKING UP - YOU HEAR THE ROAR OF THE CROWD ABOVE YOU - FADING GENTLY AS THE SILENCE ENGULFS YOU. "SUCCESS" CRUELTY - CAN PERMANENTLY SCAR. KINDNESS - CAN PERMANENTLY HEAL. "GOOD AGED WINE" 'TWAS THE DAY WE DIDN'T FIGHT, BITCH - OR TRY TO KILL EACH OTHER. - AND THE SHEETS WERE WET WITH OUR DESIRE. FIRE IN OUR EYES - AND THEN THE SILENCE. AND EVERY DROP, OR OUR LOVE WE DRANK - TO THE FULLEST, LIKE GOOD AGED WINE - EXCEPT OUR LOVE'S UNFILTERED, NON-BOTTLED. A CABERNET WE ADORE, LIKE PERHAPS HEITZ MARTHAS'VINEYARD - 1990 FOR SURE. I HOPE YOU'VE ENJOYED THESE LITTLE SMALL TESTIMONIES OF LIFE'S EXPERIENCES FROM MY BOOK TIME PASSAGES. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME AT SELGYPCROWN@YAHOO.COM - THANK YOU AND PEACE AND LOVE TO YOU ALL!
