Justice


We tell children to stay in a child's place, so why are there so many children in prison. Kids forced to grow up at a fast pace, now enslaved in prison living. Lock em up and throw away the key, seems to be the desired course of action. Illogical thinking and ill fated reforms have proven to be a failed reaction. Instead of rehabilitation disguises in prison, how about trying rehabilitation in their homes. Since in all actuality, that is where these children really belong. The eyes of Justice, have definitely become blinded to the ways of this mad scheme. When all they can think of is punishment, instead of these children chasing there dreams. Young impersinoable minds, now being shaped in an environment full of mistrust and anger. Only to be freed one day, thereby placing the community at an even greater danger. What was once an innadnt mind, now hardened from the affects of doing hard time. No longer chasing their dreams, its now chasing a life of crime. Its time to find solutions to this problem, because soon it'll be too late. Its a community problem, that we cant afford to leave it to the state. There is no reasonable minded adult, who should be in agreement with this. So in the name of Davontae Sandford, lets take a stand for "Justice"

Simple Man



As I search for understanding about this life that I live. I've come to realize, that there is so muchmore for me to give. Striving for perfection, yet still nowhere even close. My priorities are now together, and thats what matters most. For every thought and reflection, one must make a conscience decision. And these decisions have to be made with delicacy and precision. Every decision has consequences, that we all have to accept. But we shouldnt therefore live our lives, based on possible regret. Determined to change my life, yet still searching for that way. I have complete faith im knowing that I will make it one day. So in this journey called life, I seek to find Gods plan. And struggle to understand that the world wont be changed by one man. So I accept my flaws and carry on, while searching for the good. And strive to live my life, as any righteous man would. My future can only be good, if based on a solid plan. But I have to be realistic and remember that I'm just a Simple Man.

Strength




The strength of a woman is the foundation of many things. I pay tribute to every aspect, of all the things they bring. From the moment of birth, its the woman who sets the pace. A disciplinarian and nurturer, who wipes the tears from our face. This poem is about a strength that is within all of you. This strength allows you to persevere and do Whatevep you desire to do. Its allows you to be strong, even in the midst of a test. Its during those times of tribulation that you are at your best. At times life can seen a little risky, or even like a gamble. But with the strength you possess, there is nothing you cant handle. So I look to you for strength, that doesnt just come from anywhere. It has to come from a person whom I know really does care. So I thank God, for the blessing of there great women he has sent. But most importantly, I thank God, for blessing you all with Strength.

Incomplete





Taking each day in stride, trying to deal with the stress. Ready to show the world, what I am like at my best. Humble in my ways, yet stern in my pursuit of life. Ready to be a father and great husband to a wife. The difficulties that I face, are enhance by my situation. No offering of real help, just some supposed rehabilitation. A stronger man now, due to the fact that nothing ever came easy. No longer eager to please others, placing nothing before me. Realizing my self worth and not playing into the self hate. Those negative distracting thought, I no longer have to contemplate. With the exception of a few, I am truly my brothers keeper. Maybe one day I'll accept those few, as my understanding gets deeper. So I move forward in life, not willing to accept any form of defeat. At the same time accepting the fact, that my life is still so Incomplete.
