The DeadMan's Scrolls: "Just Like That" ~X~ Poem Series

Hello everyone!

I welcome all of you to me opening up more to you all on a bit of a personal level. I have been in the public view for over two decades. Many of you know me but I would like to let you in a little more. Music and writing has always been the two things in my life that has been my all , friends come and go, jobs change, habits change, etc, etc. But a constant has always been writing & music. So I am doing my due by both this year or really trying to. My first step forward is my writing. So enclosed is my copy-written poem about the first time I was shot. 

(Yes it has been more than once) 

It was crazy to say the least. No I was not robbing a bank or "gang-banging". No, I was leaving a store. Well, I will let you read it. I hope you enjoy. May not be the traditional why to write poetry, its my way of expressing poetry. All I ask is respect it. 
 
Thank you all. 

More to come throughout the year!

 Just Like That


Written By: DeadMan~X~ of TFD

Indeed my life would make a great novel. filed with action, love, pain, lessons, triumphs, tragedy, peace, and more.

I remember like yesterday the day I received my first bullet.

I remember walking out the store and hearing the 2 people arguing.

Shit in my mind, I figured it was none of my business and kept it pushing.

As I walk to the car, I remember hearing a loud crack and the last thing is I remember looking down at my stomach, then to the bag of chips in my hand that I just bought...

to my 8 year old niece sitting in the back passenger seat.

That face...


Terror it its purest form.
Every sound ceased.

My eyes locked with hers
I wake up in the ER.
I have no clue what happened.


Like a savage, injured & confused animal,
I freak start ripping the IV's out asking 

"Where TF Am I!?!?!?!?!" 

Over and over

My energy fades
I wake up to the once terrified face, now looking upon me with with worry yet hope.

I open my eyes slightly, her expression goes from hope to victory.

I open my eyes more...
Her eyes fill with a mixture of tears and confidence.

See we all have hopes and dreams and it was an honor to fulfill hers.

Our scars in fact remind us the past was indeed real.

Remember,

YOU made it.

**Age of Hypocrisy**: The Real War on Women

Image
Written By: ~X~ of TFD The "War on Women" is a phrase that has been slung around and misused inaccurately as much as the " W ar on Drugs". Both of these "wars" have been (in my opinion) been blow n out of proportion, misrepresented , misunderstood and abused to the fullest by pundits, journalist, wanna-be reporters and colum nist, depending on what side of the isle they are on. Let me explain.... This "war" has gone to far and if it is not put int o perspective , we can loose a lot more th an a few seats in the House. First, women HAVE been through a lot throughout history . We here HONOR women , you can make life. Your n urturing nature, wisdom, st re n gth, wisdom, companionship, leadership, etc is needed in order for life to be in ba lance. The very miracle of creating LIFE is a marvel in its self. Now ... This is not ALL of you ... We would like to take a bit to walk d own so turns of the rabbit hole and f orm a canvass ...

"- Henry Ford Last article , we touched on the history and the structure of the Bank for International Settlements. Now, we are going to get into the fuckery of the global financial robber bearer. To do this, we are going to have to explore several banks, treaties, and people all the way back to 1920 and even further. The main thing to understand is the tyrannical and evil banking system which does not just effect the United States but EVERY single territory on this planet is controlled ( knowingly or not ) by this cartel and their cronies ( Central Banks ). " The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger...

Dear Brothers & Sisters By: Puck Arks

 Dear Brothers & Sisters    Written By: Puck Arks of TFD M y dear brothers and sisters—yes, we are all brothers and sisters, I have love in my heart for all people, while we may disagree, but even more so may we agree that some people cross the line, more often than not, or even rarely because in truth we all do it. M y friends, Collectively speaking, conflict is not necessarily bad or destructive.  E ven when conflict causes a great deal of stress or fr frustration we must remember why we are here. S ometimes we disturb the peace by trying to defend ourselves or prove a point. I t helps to remember that someone else's perception has no real power over who we are, so there is no actual threat. W hen others hold strong opinions, you still can hold your own without disturbing the balance. W e need to seek common ground rather than notice our differences. See things from another perspective so that you can understand that person within...
