    Bearing My Soul - Prolific Jones

    Bearing My Soul

    Bearing My Soul

    I am bearing my soul to you.

    Knowing full well

    the things that you might do.

    You will look down your nose

    at me with disdain

    And shake your head

    whenever you hear my name.

    Saying what a shame it is that

    I put myself through those things,

    Not admitting to yourself

    that you at least thought about it

    or have done the same.

    Ain’t It Funny...

    Ain’t It Funny?

    That if I had an event full of negativity,

    I’d have people flocking to me.

    Ain’t It Funny?

    How if I were disrespectful to myself and others,

    I would have a bigger audience in one week

    Than what I would be able to have in a lifetime.

    Ain’t It Funny?

    How there are so many Facebook Goers & Maybes

    When it comes to attending a positive event.

    Ain’t It Funny?

    That when it comes to supporting a negative event

    Full of drugs and disgusting content,

    people are jumping through hoops to buy their V.I.P Tickets.

    If it were a positive event,it would barely get participants,

    even if the event had free entry.

    Why would I expect the

    World to support The Positive?

    Negroids

    One day I was asked,Are you married?

    I proudly say, Yes,and show him my ring finger.

    His next question was,So can I call you?

    I shake my head and repeat, I’m Married.

    I then say,Come out to my set and bring your girlfriend,

    Because I am a poet and a promoter and couldn’t let that moment pass.

    Plus, a girlfriend is something I know he has.

    He then says,I’ll have to find someone to bring.

    I chuckle and then walk out the room.

    This is so funny to me because when I was single,

    That type of man- you know, the big muscle-bound,

    Make-you-faint -just by-looking-in-your-direction

    Type of man - wouldn’t have been interested in me.

    But now that I am married, my ring seems to attract them and more.

    People talk about women that tend to have this type of behavior -

    The Clean-Up Woman

    But what about these men that do the same thing?

    Calling them The Clean-Up Man

    doesn’t seem quite right though.

    Let’s call them....... NEGROIDS.

    Definition: A Male Negro who’s character resembles a Hemorrhoid.

    Now this is my definition for them. You can call them whatever you want.

    So married ladies, before you get all hot and bothered about this Negroid’s approach,

    Here is what I say to myself.

    1. There is no other man that is going to deal with me the way my husband does.

    2. No man is going to take care of things for me without complaint the way my husband does.

    3. No man is going to wash clothes and help clean up around the house the way my husband does.

    4. No man is going to make love to me just the way I like the way that my husband does.

    5. Just as he is trying to get me to cheat on my husband, he will most assuredly cheat on me –

    He ain’t worth all the strife.

    6. No man will ever be the type of man that my husband is, because I have trained him well.

    So why start over with this Negroid?

    Come Back

    You were finally sleeping and I was so glad,

    For God only knew the rough night you had had.

    But then I realized you were not only sleep.

    Christ the Lord Savior you’d gone home to meet....

    Come back!!!

    I didn’t get to say how much

    I loved you!!

    Come back!!!

    I didn’t get to say how much

    I appreciated you.

    Come back...

    So I can say how much I love you.

    The look on your face is what my heart will keep.

    It was the look of
