MLK GREATEST QUOTES (my reaction from quotes)

*“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

This quote states that a man is not a true man in an easy predicament but proves his manhood when a difficult obstacle is approached. Martin Luther King isn't famous for reacting for no reason. He shows his true power when the toughest presents of injustice comes along. Anybody can act like "the man" or "a man" when things are easy and going as planned but how do you approach or handle a hard situation?

*“In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”  

Many people believe their enemies actions are more important than their "friends" lack of reaction. The quote is explaining that at the end of the day and conclusion of the obstacle it is not what your enemies called you or did to you, it matters how much your friends helped you through it. Martin Luther King stood for whats right even been hit and spat on. While the majority of his "friends" referring to other black people mainly did nothing and stood in silence. Does the ignorance of your enemies mean more then your friends lack of support throughout it all?

*“Whatever your life's work is, do it well. A man should do his job so well that the living, the dead, and the unborn could do it no better.”  


Throughout history, a number of people did things that can never be surpassed or compared. Martin Luther King being a man who will be remembered forever says that if we have a task or job to do we should do it to our greatest abilities so no one can ever do it better. I guess it is okay to measure up to the first persons accomplishment but people should always want to work so hard in order to be the best. Micheal Jordan will never be outdone. Although many can be compared to him no one can be better, and many others. Do you want to do just a good job or strive for a chance for someone to say at one point in time that no one can do it better than you did?

Laughter!

Why your laugh cause chills? My moments of your smile causes flashing lights,
Glisten dimples swings colors to flash it bright;
I don't know if its just me but you flash it like...,
A perfect meal because your grin cause an appetite;
I know plenty, but haven't met many,
That can throw a certain joke or a sense of humor they can lend me;
Just a one chuckle makes her knees want to buckle,
Or our smiles make me please want to cuddle;
I love it! the way I smirk cause a flirt,
A battle of the eyes of who's given in first;
She's holding butterflies like her blush is finna burst,
So I moist up my swag to make her want to quench a thirst; back!
No I ain't all that but I am not average ,
My music of a style can turn a hit to a classic;
My flow flawless far from the plastic,
So even if I tap your heart it can turn to tragic;
So if you think I'm good I prefer the master,
Funny how this poem started all with her laughter;
 

On The Spot

{Wrote this without a focus}

My stress level to a point where i choose to mess up just a little bit,
Thoughts of advancing i kill and forget of it;
Damn! Let all of this make me stronger,
For what I have going hard now let it go harder;
Success is how you make it not how its attain,
Because I have friends that strive success but we are nothing like the same;
I love to talk but what is in it for the "lames",
Because everyone has my attention but for outsiders its not obtained;
Listen! I trust me not everything around it,
Because I go for the goal not the things that surround it;
We lose respect for the numbers that is not counted,
But we never judge the words even if the verbs are crowded;
Hear me listen? Of course not for it doesn't exist,
But how do people look to the future of things based on how we reminisce;
How our future changes from past mistakes,
Or have to work hard for greatness but better then the greats;
I tell talent I'm not balanced i know for sure I lean to wrong things,
But i am good in my thoughts to go beyond things;
And i strive for beyond whatever beyond brings,
So i just see myself hanging from these strong strings;
Get thoughts from blank stares,
And publicity from bright glares,
And on my off days i am whatever bright fears;
But  I do get a kick out of night cheers,
From friends who sit on my back like chairs;
We run from the light but what we see in the dark,
Is that same empty spaces that can tear us apart;
Following the fire glow even tho its hot,
So do not judge the following because this was just written ON THE SPOT!

LAST OF 2010

COMPROMISE

 My talent settles for nothing, what my pride simply tries,
To stand out so some of my thoughts I never compromise; 
Simple lies penalized with her killer eyes,
Premeditated Murder but my mind never dies;
Compromise on a loss when we knew we could have beat it,
Compromised on the background role with all the teams you individually defeated;
But a loss is a loss and I never will repeat it,
A feeling that hurt my heart I could barley think or speak it;
Settling for whats to come,
So what is did is always done;
A walk with a heavy load but my position is to run;
Compromise on your thoughts on a crazy proposition,
And my sights are to get it done, so my dreams are way below my vision;
Fantasies disappear in instants,
If your actions are never instant,
So what my actions consist of if they are not consistent;
And thou should not lie or else their penalized,
So I'd be lying if I told you I love to COMPROMISE;


LOVE SHOULDN'T HURT...

Her silence hurt my ear drums, I'm so use to her random speeches,
She has a mean mug on, It's hard to see this;
She doesn't trust me, man it's hard to believe it,
But even if she walks away I would never leave it;
Without her hug I'm insecure,
And without her ''hi'' I'm so unsure;
On how my day goes, depends on your reactions;
An I may seem ''chill'' but I'm not relaxing;
My head holds wonders,
My mood lights blink all different colors,
Blue when I'm feeling down and red when I love her;
So my messages blink purple even if it's not from you,
An I'm addict to the love even if I don't know what to do...
She say I....''always take her care for granted'',
And when she's feeling good I don't know how to be romantic.
But it sucks because her mood swings makes me panic,
So all these dead reactions are no surprise, really I planned it;
I can't feel nothing if this doesn't really work,
An I love this girl but LOVE SHOULDN'T HURT.    




CONFLICT


A problem to be defined,
As a narrow ended mind cannot look between the lines;
Crowds wave at the situation with their emotions holding signs,
And sense is made with no subject just because it has a couple rhymes;
A brainstorm of words, go over the head like birds,
Killing the chances to not hit curves with racial slurs;
But at times we do not think, our minds create verbs,
That can cause a physical appearance that can get on each others nerves;
Conflict to ones self insecurity,
A thought of a person you take when you cannot afford to be;
Beyond the minor nonsense,
It's just life and life is all full of CONFLICT.
