Walk A Mile In Another Person’s Shoes

This is a poem that I called “Why Must It be This Way?” and in writing it I tried to imagine what it must be like for an innocent girl on her first date, how she could react and hopefully how she in the end she should react. Perhaps my perspective of this is tarnished ever since I became the father of a daughter even though I do not recall ever acting in such an uncouth manner.

It sort of brings to mind the Joe South classic made famous by Elvis Presley, “Walk A Mile In My Shoes”. Perhaps if we could physically do that before making rash judgments that lead to one person hurting another, the world could start to become a better place.

Anyway without further ado I present to you Why Must It be This Way?

When you asked me out that day
I thought it too good to be true
My insides all a flutter, I said OK
Oh if I only knew what would pursue

Why did you wait so long?
Why do I feel this way?
My heart is beating like a gong
Please don’t lead me astray

You took me out that night
We had a burger fries and a shake
We talked about the things that might
Affect us and the paths we would take

I can’t believe I am with you
It’s like it’s meant to be
What would you do if you knew?
How much you meant to me

You drove to a secluded spot
You parked the car, the night so still
And in my mouth your tongue it shot
Too much, too quick, it was no thrill

Why must you go so fast?
This is all too new, I’m so scared
I want to make this last
I really thought you cared

Not satisfied your hands did grope
As you fondled my breast, I’m shocked
Too much, too soon, I could not cope
Our mouth together our lips were locked

Why must you be so rough?
It wasn’t supposed to be like this
Please, I think I’ve had enough
Why can’t we just kiss?

My mind was numb senses reeling
I pushed him away and told him NO
My breasts you bastard you kept feeling
The next step not where I wished to go

Mom was right, I’m not ready
I should have listened and stayed at home
I wish he would stop already
He’s like a beast his mouth all foam

You pull away face contorted
I did no wrong so don’t blame me
The name you used when you retorted
A light bulb moment, now I can see

No piece of meat to be used
I’m a person that needs respect
No-one’s feelings should be abused
Those sorts of guys you should reject.

If their are any young girls reading this, please remember that you should hold onto your respect and that no male is worth you losing that. The oldest line that boys will ever use is the one that goes something like this; “If you really loved me then” and the rest tapers on to you letting him cop a feel etc. until he gets what he finally wants. In truth, if he really loved you he would never ever put you into that situation.

A male’s psyche is different from a woman as for a hell of a lot of men doing the deed is all that counts. For a woman it means so much more.

I would really love to get a reaction from both males and females as to how they perceive all that I have said.

Commentators, How Do I Reward Thee? Let Me Count The Ways

I reckon those of you who read my blog regularly would realize by now how I hold my commentators in high esteem and I how I love to reward them for leaving a comment. Those of you who don’t, well let me list them here for you in order that it may encourage you also to join in the discussions on this blog.

  1. Do Follow: First of all, by using the Do Follow plugin I have removed the No Follow tags and so Google will now be able to follow the link, left in the name field when you leave a comment, to your blog or site.
  2. The F Group: I am a member of the F Group, a group that promises to follow all commentators to their blog and reciprocate with a comment of their own.
  3. Brian’s Threaded Comment Plugin: This plugin makes it easier to respond to an authors comment rather than have to use the old ‘@ Name’ Crap and then scrolling up and down to see what the conversation is all about.
  4. CommentLuv: This is a neat little plugin, developed by Andy Bailey, that reward you by including a titled link to your last blog post at the end of your comment. If you register your site at commentluv you can actually choose from your last 10 posts!
  5. Top Commentators Widget: Read all about how being a regular commentator can increase your backlinks via this plugin.
  6. KeywordLuv: KeywordLuv by Stephen Cronin is the latest method that I am using to reward those who take the time to leave a comment. Everyone knows the value of keywords, well with this plugin will separate your name from your keywords in the link to your blog or website thereby giving you improved anchor text.  All you need do to to utilize this plugin is enter YourName@YourKeywords in the Name field to take advantage of it. For example, if I was to enter Sire@Wassupblog in the name field it would show up as Sire from WassupBlog.

You can thank Kristi of Kikolani fame, her latest poem The Sweetest Drug, for that last plugin as it was her comment on my Commenting Etiquette post that inspired me to install it.

Commenting Etiquette Is Important

When you enter a persons home there are certain rules that everybody follows, little rules such as farting in the presence of your hosts and not making a pig of yourself. Most people know about the etiquette involved when visiting and on the whole they do their best whilst visiting.

I have made the analogy before where a blog can be considered the bloggers home and we as guests should follow a common commenting etiquette. We should follow the bloggers, rules if such exist and also monitor the way we behave while commenting. This means to always be polite and not to flame others in whatever comments we leave. We can however fart to our hears content and the hosts will never know.

My blog is no different and I have a Comment Policy for all to see. I also have the following added in the comments box so that their can be no mistake;

Please leave a comment but remember SPAM will not be tolerated
Please use a name and not a keyword as keywords will be removed. I reserve the right to moderate or reject any comment for any reason.

Unfortunately there have been commentators who have ignored this simple rule and I let them go for the sake of the comments. However, due to an email I have received, I am afraid I can no longer let this go on as it is unfair to those who are following the rules. I hope you understand.
