Interesting Men

 

Brent

 

Books are amazing tools that will always be used to enlighten the minds of those who open them.

Advances in technology aren’t replacements for putting words to paper to form new stories through

Zero hints of how long such a journey will take and who else will take it to better themselves during

Years of development, augmented by opening another book to see what secrets are slowly revealed.

Exciting tales of the world long ago full of lovers and heroes much like today, however void of the

Wonders of special effects or a colorful narrator during a time when many couldn’t read or write,

Vexed by not being able to understand what lay on a sign or scrap of paper and not being the lucky

Underling of a master who wants others to know the joys of ancient writers to go into a new world

Taught well from people able to earn the title of doctor to cure the lands of the disease of illiteracy.

Some stories are thankfully preserved thanks to modern technology because years of neglect have

Reduced the copies of works like the thick epic poem of Beowulf to mere scraps, holding on for life

Quickly fading from poor respect for preserving old works among those who didn’t know that these

Precious stories would be shared centuries after they were published to further the education of the

Outstanding minds that make up institutes of higher learning, wanting less of sciences and math.

New minds are great, but praise those who have taught the same stories for years able to feel the joy 

Many students also have expressing in how they interpret stories when asked to read such works.

Learning doesn’t have to be hard, yet only a select are able to go from sitting at a desk to an office,

Kept to the brim with favorite works to pass onto the next generation should they feel compelled to

Jump into deeper waters where they can learn new depths on the simplest of words to baffle others.

Intelligence isn’t a crime, so becoming a high ranking teacher to improve the minds of others can

Help make the world a brighter from not looking at a screen and talking in fragments instead of

Getting to know those around you to share all that you have learned to increase the light from the

Future where people enjoy the experience of talking to others like they did long ago without books.

Everyone can find a good book to read and explain why it is their favorite while listening to others

Divulge on why they enjoy similar and other works without in a calm manner while very hopefully

Ceasing the fear of reading without understanding the wonders of words.

White Haired Bastard

 

Woe and wonders to those who stand tall at the head of their program who are tasking with the

Exceedingly difficult task to educate and manage everyone else within their esteemed department,

Yelling not with harsh words in person, but with red marks on sloppy papers, giving a powerful

Zeal to a man that while helpful, lives up to his title of White Haired Bastard to show that he cares.

Academia is a privilege and holding the position of department head must be given to one able to

Boldly take the reins of fate for the many young minds who tentatively step onto their new daunting

Campus to discover who they want to be when they finally grow up and evolve into bold adults.

Darkness must exist with the light and unhappily, white represents all the colors life has to throw at

Everyone who doesn’t know where to go, so meeting someone in a high position with white hair is

Fearful because first impressions are important and everyone wants to not ruin the moment from

Getting nowhere fast in life and wanting to discover a new path with essentially a god amongst the

Human insect swarms scurrying over the walkways and through the halls to their classes to obtain

Intellect from those who found their purpose while wanting others to improve their lives with the

Jamboree of thick books and assignments from a man who always has a twisted smile on his face.

Keeping such a person isn’t hard, however it comes from hard work to ensure the white the hair

Lies across the room and not into the faces of students before the next big assignment or exam.

Many years have gone into making it to the head of the English department and it is in good hands,

Never knowing such a soul who knows how to balance criticism with praise to provide strength for

Other endeavors on the path to wanting to use words as a way to bring to those in dark places in a

Perilous world without much laughter that is not tainted by dark intentions into the light of words to

Quell society’s rage spawned from a lack of communication and sick obsessions with pop culture.

Remember that there will always be people that intimidate you, yet they can be your friend if you

Struggle to find your way amongst the labyrinth that is the educational system with too many turns.

Truth be told, we need a few honest bastards to balance out the overly sweet liars who provide an

Unclear map in navigating our lives, so if you feel daunted by asking for a little help from higher up,

Victory shall belong to both of you when the journey ends at the top of the mountain.

Brian

 

Brave journeys are a part of life and like the knights of old, it takes determination to see through the

Clouded future to reach the sacred lands that lie far beyond what mortal men can dare to dream.

Down winding roads passing through forests and caves before creeping up mountains so that such

Extreme quests aren’t over before they can provide experience for travelers to grow as they try to

Find out their life’s purpose, like a fair maiden or shiny treasure locked away in a forgotten castle

Guarded by monsters meant to prevent heroes from getting sloppy and wandering onto a path of

Horrors that turn the gold of prosperity back into lead without many wizards to guide the way by

Illuminating path with knowledge bestowed long ago as how a teacher advises their new students.

Juggling everything life throws at you isn’t easy on your own, yet for those who are lucky, having a

Kind soul to share such obstacles allows some of the burden to be divided so that problems can be

Learned more about and overcome much like how a knight slays a dragon or in this day in age with

More prominent female leads, feel better about asking for some assistance from your other half.

Nowhere doesn’t truly exist because it’s merely a longer path for some to take so that among these

Odd surroundings, people can think about what makes them happiest and how such joys can be

Preserved so that these memories can light a fire so that quest doesn’t grow cold and there are no

Qualms about not reaching the finish line without feeling a champion with a lovely companion.

Reach for the one you love and thank them for staying with you for so long and that there is more

Still to come and that everyday you’re glad that such a difficult journey didn’t have to be made alone.

Trials are meant to make us stronger and prove that we’re human from having speedbumps, sadly

Upsetting the balance of life that people have experienced up until the bump to often make many

Veer off their original path and sometimes onto to better one if they keep their eyes very open to

Wherever they land despite the temptation to flinch greatly upon returning to our precious rock.

Expect the unexpected and life won’t become some dragon or giant out for slaying the innocent,

Yet every journey will come surprises to make your triumph so much sweeter like true love’s kiss.

Zero clues of how to rise to the challenge aslo sweetens the reward because we learn best when

Against the odds, so help those who need it to provide at little magic in everyone’s world.

Michael

 

Magic exists within everyone’s hands and unhappily some people aren’t aware of such wonders

Lying at their fingertips and how it can be used to help others feel better in their darkest times.

Kneading of flesh and muscle improves blood flow to use what the body has to heal itself to

Jolt it back into the best of times so that the gloom is chased away without harsh chemical use.

Imagine what a little bodywork can do for you and that relief can be achieved in few minutes to

Heal for hours with the release of negative energy in addition to positive responses sleeping in

Grey matter waiting to wash over weary fibers and frenzied nerves so that a natural rhythm can

Find its way back to normal if only for a little while as we enjoy our time until the next session.

Everyone should take time to relax and recover, especially if you spend ample precious time

Dancing past students or other adept makers of chaos day in and day out without quiet time to

Cease the madness for a little while as you experience various pressures on tired limbs tired of

Battling tempting urges to snap back at those who can’t take a hint that they’re causing issues.

Attuned bodies are difficult to maintain, yet there are ways of treating it right to keep it out of

Zones of misery, tensing systems even further, disrupting the cycles of repair and relaxation.

Yesterday is gone and today is here to worsen body distress even more, so for once, try being

Xenial to your body and find someone qualified to help relieve tension and want to create joy.

Whatever healing path you take is your choice, but remember that paths can intertwine with

Virtually anything to make the experience smoother for everyone as we all step nervously to the

Unknown fate we all have, building up with suspense everyday while wreaking havoc on our

Tired physical forms meant to cradle our souls and not compress them into filthy, old bricks

Sitting amongst the meat until it’s too late to know what being able to rest while still alive is a

Real possibility and that you often don’t have to go far to find someone willing to provide help.

Quell the storm lurking inside of muscles and nerves and the world will appear much brighter,

Provided that your appreciate the help that you have received, even if it takes several sessions to

Obtain a body free of pain and unafraid of the many dangers waiting around the corner because

No one knows how their day will go, so finding a little relief can be the miracle everyone needs.
