'She's My Rushmore,Max'

IN THE NAME OF GRACE

I DO NOT SING IN PRAISE OF THOSE GREAT WARRIORS OF OLD,

WHO FOUGHT BRAVE BATTLES ON BLOODY BATTLEFIELDS.

FOR SOME WERE FOUGHT FOR WOMEN AND SOME FOR PRECIOUS GOLD,

AND SOME FOR TOWERING EGO TO WHICH NO ONE EVER YIELDS.

I DO NOT TEACH OF LIFE AND DEATH,

OF LESSONS OF EXPERIENCE THAT ALL SHOULD LEARN.

FOR THEY ARE CAPRICIOUS MASTERS AND DISLOYAL SERVANTS

AND HENCE ARE NEVER OF MY CONCERN.

I DO NOT WEEP FOR THE LOVER WHO CAME AND WENT

NOR FOR THE FRIEND WHICH TIME AND CHANCE ONCE BROUGHT.

FOR ALL MY SINS THIS I DO HEREBY CONFESS,

THAT I TRULY DID NOT LOVE THEM AND THEY TRULY LOVED ME NOT.

I DO NOT QUOTE MEN OF GREAT UNDERSTANDING,

THEIR WORDS OF WISDOM I NEVER DO BORROW.

FOR I AM MYSELF NEITHER THIS NOR THAT

AND THEY MAY WELL BE PROVED WRONG TOMORROW.

AND SO IF NOTES ARE PLAYED IN MELODIOUS TUNE,

AND WORDS ARE PUT IN RHYMES OF UNBROKEN CHAIN.

IF CHARACTERS ARE CREATED AND STORIES TOLD,

AND COLOURS COME ALIVE ON THE CANVASS PLANE.

THEN IT IS FOR HER,

IT IS FOR HER THAT THESE LABOURS OF EXPRESSION

THESE SHRINES OF GRATITUDE HAVE BEEN ERECTED.

IT IS OF THE BEST THAT THESE FRAIL HANDS CAN OFFER

THOUGH FROM ME NOTHING IS EXPECTED.

THIS IS A PICTURE OF FORMER PRO WRESTLER CHRIS BENOIT.IT WAS TAKEN BY A FAN JUST HOURS BEFORE HE WENT ON A MURDEROUS RAMPAGE KILLING HIS WIFE NANCY AND 7 YEAR OLD SON DANIEL.HE LATER PROCEEDED TO HANG HIMSELF THE NEXT DAY.INVESTIGATORS HAVE CONCLUDED THAT THE REPEATED CONCUSSIONS HE SUSTAINED DURING HIS CAREER DAMAGED HIS BRAIN TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT IT WAS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE HE WENT OVER THE EDGE.

MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON HIS SOUL.

I WISH I WAS BORN IN AMERICA SO I COULD MAKE OUT WITH GIRLS HALF MY AGE.I WISH I WAS BORN IN THE U.K SO I COULD LOOK DOWN ON THE 'UNCIVILIZED ASIAN'.I WISH I WAS BORN AN AUSTRALIAN SO I COULD 'PRACTICE MULTICULTURALISM' BY BEATING UP EVERY MULTI COLORED FOREIGNER THAT COMES MY WAY.BUT ALAS....I AM AN INDIAN.DOESN'T THAT JUST SUCK?
