Two Poems: A Man"s Instinct (His Realism) and The Water Poem
For Women Only! A Man's Instinct (his Realism) Now why did I do that? I could taste it, I had to.
That's all I know about it.
I mean I never had no earthly reason to do what I did.
But I know this: what a man has to do, he has to do! Does that make sense? I can't explain it, but let me try.
We fight angrily, sometimes in a frenzy of agitation! I mean, men, we do! Over duty and desire, etcetera...
Instinct tells us to defend our honor.
If need be, threatening with our solar plexus, if you know what I mean.
What is it that compels us to defend? And sometimes to our very end! I tell you it is instinct! It can even over power love, if love is weak-; Example, take the bone away from the dog, see what happens! Pray the dog has sensibilities, first; very deep feelings for you, first! It is like taking a job away from a man, he'll fight like a dog, why? It's his bone! (and it is instinct: it has nothing to do with good or bad) Why? (I know I keep asking why, why...
) I repeat, what a man has to do, he has to do, even if he can't explain why...
That's called 'realism'...
No: 4568/ October 4, 2014 Note: Realism is used in this poem to imply: social conditions as they actually are, not what one would like them to be! Thus, idealization is abstract, or absent.
The Water Poem All life depends on food, and all food depends on water...
A thousand pounds of water will produce one pound of food! Ten-thousand pounds of water will produce one pound of meat! The average person drinks about two-thousand pounds of water a year- The average person eats about two-hundred pounds of vegetables and the same for meat, a year- Thus, it takes over twenty-two thousand pounds of water a year to keep a small man or woman, alive and moving...
Advice: Do your homework: a population depends on water, make You bookkeeping, equal to your water conservation; don't depend On others to do it for you; their results is always to their benefit...
No 4569/10-5-2014 Note: With all respect intended, alas, such an oversight of conservation of water, and water supply future availability, and political management: a good example is the present crisis in Porterville, California.
My Prayers go with them.
