PART FIVE---- NO LONGER...HOLD MY TONGUE

PART FIVE ---- NO LONGER…HOLD MY TONGUE

A few nights ago I was in a go-go bar in Thailand. While I was focusing on the stage performance a little, old, dried-up, wrinkled-faced, man came in and sat down right beside me. This man was so old he could have been Methuselah’s daddy. And ug-ly, he was so ugly that he would have to slip up on a glass to get a drink of water. (That’s a Moms Mabley joke just in case you’re too young to remember.)

Even though it is against the law to smoke in any entertainment venue in Thailand, the law is not enforced. Therefore, this little, old man immediately lit up a cigarette. He puffed and puffed and made sure he filled the air all around with smoke. I leaned over in the opposite direction to try to get a clean breath of air, and apparently, this made the little, old man mad. So he tuned, looked at me and blew a puff of smoke right in my face, and then he said, “Now what you gonna do about it?”

A rage of anger raced through me and I nearly lost control. I had my fist ready to punch this dude in the face, but somehow, something better took control. Sensible thoughts attempted to replace anger! And I’m really glad it did, because I was in a bar in a foreign country, and anytime you start a fight in a bar, it makes no difference who is to blame, you’re going to get thrown in jail. That’s just a custom in Thailand!

So I sat there a few minutes fuming, trying to consecrate on the performance, but that was just impossible. The human in me wanted to punch something, but in spite of all that anger, I calmly got up and walked out. I did however kick the concrete sidewalk outside the bar only to injure my toes!

I said all that to prove a point. I also am concerned about Donald Trump’s well-being. Inside Trump is a volcano that is filled with lies, deceits, corruption, and cover-ups. This volcano is just about ready to explode! When it does, the entire planet may be in danger.

Donald Trump is a liar and he seeks to cover-up his lies. I will provide only one example, out of many, as proof. The following is recorded on video and audio:

Reporter: “Mr. Trump, did you know about the $130,000 thousand dollar hush payment that was made to the porn star?”

Donald Trump: “No, I knew nothing about it.”

A few days later we saw a copy of the check that was signed by Donald Trump for $130,000, and of course, he had to know about it!

A couple of months later, Donald Trump appeared before a microphone in the Rose Garden and made the following statement:

“I don’t do cover-ups!”

No, income tax returns! ---- No business records! ----No unredacted Mueller Report! --- Cover up! ---- Cover up! --- Cover up!

Donald Trump thinks Americans are so dumb that they will believe his lies and many do. He is also saying to the non-supporters, “I have enough supporters who believe my lies to keep me in office.” And that is what pisses me off the most. In essence, he is saying exactly what the man in the bar said, “Now, what are you going do about it?”

Okay, I tell you, Donald Trump, what I’m going to do. First of all, I would like to punch you in the nose, but the better side of me says that is not the correct way to solve a problem. However, I do have a solution! I have a writer’s blog, and it is read by a few hundred people each week. The majority of those live outside the USA, and I am going to make sure that they know what a liar and a fraud Donald Trump really is. Plus, I am going to do everything possible to encourage Americans to vote against Donald Trump in 2020.

It is degrading to allow oneself to become a liar to defend the president or to defend the agenda of any political party. This has gone way too far! America is hurting and America’s reputation is hurting all around the world. It hurts me to know that I have friends, and relatives, that I love and respect, who believe Trump’s lies.

In my opinion, the best way to save America’s democracy is for American voters to give Donald Trump an astounding defeat in 2020! But remember these words Donald Trump will never go down easily!

AND WE CALLED HIM BROTHER MYERS

I have written a book that tells the story of a famous, country preacher during the years of my growing up experiences in Louisiana. The church was the center of social activities, and this particular young boy spent many hours attending church services. In this book I not only relate some of the popular sermons preached by Brother Myers, but I also give examples of some things that happened in the church that were comical. For example, there was one night, during a serious sermon, that a big, bug got entangled in the hair of one of the sisters. To a nine year old boy comical reactions followed. That same bug began to dip down into the hair of other ladies in the congregation. Many interpreted their reactions as spirit-filled moments, but others saw the bug and knew the real story.

I also tell the story of the yellow jacket that got caught up under the skirt of Miss Nellie on one particular Sunday morning church service. Once again many thought that Miss Nellie’s actions were spirit-filled, but others knew that a yellow jacket was of the stinging type. The most exciting story that I describe is when Sister Simmons shouted during the annual church revival. Regular church members had learned to dodge the bobby pins that flew like bullets through the church when she performed her famous “head jerk,” procedure.

At the end the book I retell the story of White Sunday. It is an emotional story about an African Americn lady who wanted nothing more than her children to learn about Jesus Christ. So she asked permission for her family to attend a white church and sit on the back row. The act of having to ask permission and being forced to sit on the bank row disturbs me even until this day. This reminds me of present day evangelical Christianity, when a gay man is refused membership to a white church. Or when church members refuse to sit by same-sex couples in church, or when a sign is posted on the church door that says, same-sex couples not welcome.

From the beginning of evangelical Christianity in America, very little real Christianity has been portrayed. It is hard to imagine Jesus denying anyone the privilege of listening to his sermons. I speak with disgust, because it still gets under my skin that as a child I was brainwashed to take part in such unchristian edicts.

Moving from my soap box, I hope that many of you will read and be blessed by the book entitled, AND WE CALLED HIM BROTHER MYERS. The book can be ordered from Amazon.com and is part of my religious series.

GOOD MORNING CLASS

The vast majority of the world’s population has spent time in a classroom. Some of that time was interesting but most of the time was boring, some of the time was informative but most was a waste of time. The book GOOD MORNING CLASS is interesting, informative, and at times, emotional. Teachers, parents, and students, can benefit from the information contained within this book.

Most adults have an interest in what goes on inside the classroom. Parents have special concerns that their children are being taught by qualified professional teachers. This book proves what can be accomplished when a professional steps inside a classroom. Professionalism is required for a teacher to create an interesting environment for learning in a classroom filled with thirty or more diverse students. A professional is also required in maintaining order and establishing an informative environment conducive for learning.

Substitute teachers have a more difficult task engaging students in something other than what students call “busy work.” GOOD MORNING CLASS is a story of one day in the life of a substitute teacher who was determined to employ students in some kind of constructive learning other than busy work. In so doing he faced rudeness, criticism, and slander, which he handled in a professional manner. In the end, he gained respect from most of the students and managed to maintain a learning environment.

IT'S NOT ME

IT’S NOT ME

Mirror, mirror, answer me,
who is this strange face that I see?
Could it be someone I don’t know,
a different person in a different show?

For Father Time has not stopped,
the hands have moved around the clock,
And now I look and can barely see
the strange face that stares back at me.

But when I look deep into those eyes,
I see the roads and remember the miles.
I see the paths that I have crossed,
and remember the friends who paid the cost.

I read the signs along the way
and heard the many voices say,
so fast the time, so fast the years,
over distance meadows, and rolling hills.

Sunsets, sunrises, I have seen,
many happy times were meant for me.
But death did knock on my front door,
and say to me, “Time is no more.”

The creepy crawlers in the night,
came and tried to take my life.
But I awoke and cried out loud,
“This white sheet is not my shroud!”

There are too many places I’ve never been
and too many faces I’ve never seen.
Great bodies of water I have crossed,
and in a land of needy there were coins to toss.

I’ve talked with the living and held hands with the
dead,
And listened to the spirits play games in my head.
I’ve spoken in languages I did not understand,
and made peace with myself, in a far away land.

I’ve seen people with hands out needing coins to eat,
and watched hunger devour that wasn’t so neat.
I’ve seen people made happy with so little it seemed,
and I’ve learned great lessons about material things.

So if Father Time should say to me,
a little more time I give to thee.
I will use that time preciously.

But if I’m walking my last mile,
I will walk proud and I’ll wear a smile.
“If it’s minutes, if it is hours, if it is days…
I don’t know.”
But one thing’s for certain I’ve enjoyed the show.
