Father's Day

My father & I have few similarities... We're both born in May... We both listen to ALL types of music... We both love sports... We both are nerds when it comes to anything to do with comics (books, movies, etc.)... What separates us is what almost destroyed our relationship... Growing up as the eldest of two, my father always held me responsible for (what I felt anyway, lol) everything. Although I didn't agree with his methods or philosophies sometimes, I can't help but say that he helped me. Being that 9 of any 10 friends that I had at any point in my life didn't really have their father in their lives, I had no choice but to be grateful for the fact that regardless of our disagreements: My Father Is Here... Though I felt things were unfair for me, that I missed out on things, that I didn't have the relationship with him I wanted, I kept thinking: My Father Is Here... We're in a world now where Father's Day isn't a holiday to pay homage to men taking care of their children. It's a reminder of how life doesn't work how you want it... A reminder of why people live the life they live or don't... A reminder of struggle, pain, and anguish... A reminder of knowing that people don't have their father in their lives... It's funny how downplayed Father's Day is really... Think about it: When people shout out Father's Day (wherever it might be) it's more common to see comments like: "Happy Father's Day to the REAL fathers" "Happy Father's Day to my mother for being more than a father"... You also see common phrases like: "biological dad" & "sperm donor"... You don't see Mother's Day having comments such as these... You don't see "Happy Mother's Day to my father for being a better mother than that lady that gave birth to me"... Something's gotta change... I think my "Pop Diggity" had it right... He was there... He's the prime influence, model, example of a father that the world should follow.... Maybe then Father's Day wouldn't be so negative... It would get the credit it deserves... With all that said... I love & appreciate my father not just for all the things I've learned from him and not just because he helped mold me & my brother into men... But simply because he was there... And he's still here... Being a Father

Love ya Pop

Happy Father's Day to you and every other Father that's "there"

Superman. Out

May 22nd: Selfish

The first day after a new year for me I realized things have been/going to/need to change... Yet, I couldn't figure out why they haven't changed by now... I've come up with some questions: So what happens when a superhero, that's so bent on saving everybody else, can't seem to save or do anything for himself? Is it really possible for a superhero to be selfish? Can the world really be mad at him for taking some time away from saving them in order to better his own life? Is it fair?

I have no answers to these questions lol... But they inspired me to post this poem... Enjoy

Superman. Out

Unselfish

Not really sure if it’s a problem
But I have
No concern for me
No time or turn to console me
I’m Selfless

There are other people
In distress
Why put myself before them?
Why bless I when my
Loved ones cry?
I’m selfless

Unfocused on my priorities
My people’s problems
Won’t prosper
Under my authority
I’m selfless

So kind to those
Except my own mind
To the point that I’ll
Let you whip my behind
Then bite my own tongue
And save the time, energy, and pain
Wasted from unleashing the wrath
Of a young black man’s heart scorned
I was born
Not to stand between me and you
And be torn
But to stand at your side
And remove then maneuver
Your thorns
Sacrificially into my existence
This is what makes me selfless

I love the people in my world more
Than I love my self… less
So with that being said
Who’s the one really in distress?
Who’s gonna save the man with ‘S’ on his chest?
Better yet final question
Why, oh why, can’t Superman be more selfish?

May 21st: S.O.T.D.

Yes, it's 2 posts for the same day. (It's my birthday and my blog fight me! lol) This song is dedicated to anyone that shares in the same joy that I do on this day. (Happy Birthday Megan!!! http://feliciaellureverna.wordpress.com) It just so happens that one of those people that share the same birthday as me is the artist with Superman's Song of The Day today... Enjoy! and Rest In Peace B.I.G.

May 21st: Birth of a Superhero

Then:
This day 24 years ago, an alien was born from a woman and man... When I say "alien" I mean someone who is so different from the rest of the world he can't possibly be... human. But he resembles one; complete with human eyes, nose, arms, legs, mouth, and oversized (to say the least) ears, hands and feet... Scrutinized through middle school, tortured in high school, reborn in college, he is now a Superhero... Always trying desperately to help someone in need... So selfless the one word he's immune to is selfish... His heart is bigger than the damage of his punches to the souls of his enemies... He's accomplished, seen, and endured so much in 24 years of life and is still willing to want more... Only with the next 24 years, he'll be a little more selfish with himself... (Superman has dreams 2, ya know) So with all this being said I would like to thank God & my parents for the gift of life... and the ability to sustain it (with their help of course) for now 24 years today. Also, my family & closest friends (you know who you are) thank you for being here... Thank you for accepting me for the silly goofy selfless sensitive crazy nut of a superhero that I at least think i am... I love yall... and thank yall

Now:

"Hippo Birdies Tuz Meeez!"
Translation: Happy Birthday To Me!!
