The untold story

I wrote this based on the information Paul VanDevelder spoke about. His book is, Savages and Scoundrels: The Untold Story of America’s Road to Empire through Indian Territory (Yale University Press, 2009). It was indeed an untold story about how it really happened, and what really went on with... Sign in to see full entry.

On the Esselen people

In my last term I took a fairly new course on our campus called Native American philsophy where we met once a week and we had Native American come to our classes and speak to us and we were to write a response(there were a number of options to choose from) due the next class, as well as reading that...

Limitless Dreams

I choose to dream because I live in it everyday I wake up starring in it Welcome to the other side of the rainbow because when tears flow, the rain glows an iridescent ink flow This never ending story rewrites itself everyday learning from experiences, so new paths are paved so that I get the most...

My philosophy

I got my degree in Philosophy…/He asked, she asked, they all asked…what are you going to do with that?/with this confused look on their faces I said…/when I was little, I wanted to be a professional athlete-- football or basketball I couldn’t make up my mind/in high school, thoughts of studying...

Voiceless

Mouth closed, my mind appears to leak out Thoughts mute a hoarse tongue and visions drought vague dreams wrestle with heavyweight realities and in reality, the light hides the obscurities who did this to me? imperfectly perfect, to perfect the rest of me but, I can not rest until you’re next to me...

2010

I'm thankful for all my bad and good experiences of 09 because I was able to learn about myself and grow. I'm becoming a better person everyday and it may have took some time to finally figure shit out but I did, and I'm going into this new year with more of an appreciation for life. No longer will...

Everywhere I look I'm cornered

Everywhere I look I’m cornered, so I’m posted like a stamp half the time… like two quarters/I can’t get away from ball it’s second nature, my home/and females naturally get in the way like new growth and my comb/ like a magnet I draw them in, staying within the lines I’m attracted… to your dome/so...

that type of power

I want that type of power that kisses hold/Like getting my attention when you wear Armani code/we’ve been on an amazing journey and I know it’s not time to go/in your search for inner peace take Robert Frost’s road/less traveled because people fear what they don’t know/scared to take chances because...

I embrace her

I embrace her so that she hears the rhythm of my heart singing/ the sound of comfort, strokes the parts of recently braided scalp like cold fingers/humming to the beats of uncertainties, I breathe her/the excess complication of our relationship needs a plication/and every confrontation worries me...

See I want to write you a song but not too long don’t get me wrong, it could go on forever… but I want to take it back like top hats and feathers your present ain’t half as beautiful as your past, so you live in it I appreciate every move you make because you been through it with every step I take,...
