The Man I Love
is not the all-American
macho, handsome, athletic,
rich hunk theyâre promoting.
My man is the one
with his morning coffee
pensively pondering a page -
clean, but maybe not shaven
gentleman, thinker, comic.
He can be a bit fat
or maybe too thin
homely perhaps
or drift with the wind.
But if his words rest like pillows
and he understands mine
if he knows what I mean
and when I get him, grins
then his car doesnât matter
his face can be scarred
he can have a few habits
and nights with the boys
because Iâve got what I want
and he knows it.

can explain. None I can think of ever do.
Many words come to mind. As there's so much more. But no words can express. And no tongue can tell. Just what
I see in you, or how I feel as well.
Just putting a little icing on the cake, and good luck.
They just want to be all up in your business, instead of getting
there own, and then again maybe they are jealous (smile)
"Maybe they just donât have any love in their lives" is great considering I'm more than averagely happily married and you're writing poems about watching couples have sex on frontseats and dating the Gilette Man.
Who had quite extraordinary girth
He lodged his fat wiener
Inside poor Dovina
And stretched her from Kildare to Perth!
No, wait, that's just some random assumption and about as groundless as your aboveposted comment.
blue?
He's still the man she love's
Obviously, I and my poem give more credit to a manâs character than his appearance.
I think Polynesians are mostly an attractive race. I suppose by your definition, that makes me racist.
racism n.
1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.
And NO, asserting that polynesians are mostly attractive does not make you racist. But if you had the INTEGRITY to admit that you find polynesians MORE ATTRACTIVE than other races that would indeed be a discrimination based on race, and therefore racist.
-=Dark_Angel=-,P.I.: I don't like Polynesians.
Dovina: Racist.
-=Dark_Angel=-,P.I.: I was being ironic.
Dovina: Oh. So was I.
Irony means the person perpetrating it knows some truth different from the one he's asserting (note: correct usage). You didn't, and still don't.
How can you say Black people become diverse in anything?
Do you think all Black people are the same?
As for as marriages go same races marriages don't work.
Companies and institutions become diverse when they employ
black people.Get real! most of our companies and institutions
are not run by Americans anyway.
Did Black people cause diversity in 911? They lost there lives.
Verizon to purchase MCI 7,000 people expected to lose there jobs
as a result.Them got damn Black people again with there diversity, diversity, They're just so damn diverse gawd bless'em!
1. They're black
2. They're diverse
And how dare you attempt to sully Verizon's good name? Having trawled through their website, it's clear that Verizon is by far the most DIVERSE organisation in the world, and that is something to be commended, not scorned. It is initiatives like Black History Month http://www22.verizon.com/ab... that put Verizon at the very summit of Mount Diversity. A place so diverse, so excellent, so black, that you will never ever be allowed to go there in your lifetime because you would pollute it with your lack of diversity and appalling spelling mastakes. Get with the times, al-naafiysh. All men were created diverse, but some are more diverse than others. Think about it. That's not a doublethink, unlike its "All men were created equal..." counterpart :(
His answer was, you can't single out just one race. like D.A. said."All men were created diverse, but some are more diverse than others. That's a true statement, which means Black, White, red, tan, and brown.
He also said, it's a shame that color makes a different's in God's world.
Why is it some people want to judge me, and not know the person inside?
Diverse has long left this world.
Ignorance has taken over.

So now you're thinking she's mixed with something. You're right
Indian. Her great great grandfather was from India, and only her and her brother took after him, don't be decieved by the color
of a persons skin.
What different's does it makes to you are her?
Does it have some kind of effect on both of your lives?
In order to fine the average diversity of Black and White, start
with your Bible, because Adam and Eve started out with divert in the garden of Eden, and read your Black and White history books, and research, because these things you can't average out on a computer.
I am not trying to be funny with you, but I've been hearing this for fifty years, and the only way the young people will ever fine
out the truth is research; If there is a truth.
On the other hand, you have people that only pray when something happens, and you have those that pray only to get there wishes fulfill, and never pray again until they need something else.
You can never research prayer. God says the flesh no not what it needs, therefore I listen to the soul.
The flesh may ask for many things, but few men ask for thy soul to be saved.
You don't have to explain nothing to no one.
What people think and say about you is none of your business.
