Take one newborn, American male, And insert into Today’s world. Add seven years Of parental strife Summing to Divorce at age nine. Divide a house By removing one Natural father, Replacing with Step-father, ex-con. Separate the Broken pieces By 1000 miles. Subtract God. Add the opposite. Take away love And sense of worth. Again, add the Opposite. Multiply By four more Turbulent years And reckon the Outcome: 25 rounds 10 wounded 05 dead 10000 mourners 01 nation stunned The first lesson... ------------------ |

Regretable maths perhaps?? I can safely say if you keep writing like this, it'll always be chalenging and provoking to the reading. Bravo JC ------------------ The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there IS to celebrate. ~Isis~ (Daughter of Mystery) |

This is OUTSTANDING... I agree with Michael, why is everyone so surprised when you LAY IT OUT before them? Unfortunately, there are thousands more "lessons" waiting to be learned like this one... When will the TEACHERS of lessons like this learn?!?!? ------------------ Life is what you make of it... Not what you let it be |
