I would like to applaud people for their endeavors as authors because without people like them then there wouldn't be people like me. I say this because they are paving the way for the future in the publishing world. However, I do have to admit that the 500,000 numbers for e-book sales are a little troubling. I say this because I have actually taken the time out to actually look at the future of e-publishing. I don't believe that e-publishing will actually take off like people think that it will…

Chapter Thirty
Captain Howard Pickleton sat at his desk enjoying his sandwich when the Captain of the Coast Guard came trooping into his office with a few armed guards behind them.
"Captain Pickleton, I am Captain Dejuan Coletrain of the U.S. Coast Guard. Remember we spoke on the phone earlier. I hear that you have apprehended the aliens and are now detaining them. Is this correct Captain?"
"Yes that is correct Captain. My men and I had a tough time bringing them in too." Captain Pickleton sa…

Chapter Twenty-Seven
The nights' sky was deep purple, partly cloudy, and had a full moon that bathed the earth in its' radiance. Belle Isle, for some odd reason, was peaceful this night. The geese slumbered quietly on the grass not far from the waters' edge. The deer tiptoed quietly through the woods. The island itself wasn't packed with teenagers looking for fun and excitement, thus causing the Detroit Police Departments to temporarily block off Jefferson Avenue from the Lodge freeway to Belle…

Jackeeryal Vincent West was a very understanding and patient man when it came to unexplainable matters. Standing at only five feet and nine and a half inches tall, he carried himself however, as if he was a giant. His piercing gaze saw beyond what the average human would call the core of a matter. Being a black man of a brown-skinned hue in control of one of the worlds most power fullest corporations, in which he called Mind and Body Therapy Corporation, brought about jealousy and envy from amon…

The rain came back suddenly with the thunder roaring
Lightning sizzled the nights sky as the clouds lit up like a glowbugs' courting
My baby was laying in my arms
As i remembered trying to keep her from harm
My mind exploded as if breaking through a brick wall
Just like the weather outside, my memories flooded me showing me what started it all
I was hanging on the corner with my friends getting drunk and staying high
Then one of my workers came along about to pass me by
"Hold on y'all,…

Listless nights I dream of you
Waiting for you to hold me tight
If only the dream would come true
Then everything would seem alright
Sweat dripping from me
Wetting all my sheets
Whispering " Can I see?"
As I toss and turn in my sleep
Who knows what awaits
When I awaken from this dream
All I know is that fate
Is waiting for me to cream
Pleasure beyond my wildest fantasies
Please don't awaken me
I'm about to learn the mysteries
Of the unknown face that plagues me
Gripping t…

The night was pleasant, not too hot nor cold, but fair
The scent of baby powder spread upon my sheets was in the air
It is such a beautiful sight to see you lying there next to me
This little clown, foolish in her ways, snoring softly
Should I kiss her or hold her tight as I love to do
Nibbling on your earlobes, intertwining our toes
Giving you succulent kisses on your neck, grazing the back of your shoulder with my teeth
With a light kiss I take away the pain while twisting your nipples…

If only you had listened to me then you would know that I can calm all of your fears
If only you had listened to me then you would know that I could wipe away all of your tears
If only you had listened to me then you wouldn't be in the trouble that you're in
If only you had listened to me then you would know that only I can truly set you free from sin
I wish to grant you my favors, but only if you do whats divine
But you chose to do your will instead of you doing mine
So I chose to release my wr…

In the darkness things are hidden from sight
madness is the ruler of the deepest parts of the night
snakes rise up and turn trust into treachery
love gets lost and friends become enemies
pedestals crumble and the ornaments fall from up high
the water runs dry and the birds are pulled from the sky
everywhere you look people are living out their wicked desires
while the devils run free and the jinns turn up the fire
but thanks to Allahs mercy and His gift of sight
we can now correct ourselves by d…

Simple lights beyond the clouds
Dispels the darkness within the shroud
When the light comes the darkness runs
So why fight the darkness when the light has already won?
Devilishly clever pulling the levers
Chaos imminent when trying to severe
Causing trouble and wreaking havoc
Rain pouring, can you believe its magic?
But no one believes in the true powers cue
Just look inside it resides in you
So chin up my fellow creation
Because the battles won with a simple liaison

Today
Today is the day
I gotta get ready
And look as cute and lovable as a teddy
What should I wear?
What scent should I put in the air
What should I prepare for tonight
What will be desert after dinner goes right?
I know what would surprise you
That outfit that you bought with the undergarments too
I'll cook your favorite dish just like you like it
Each room will have a different scent
The house will be dark with lighted candles everywhere
As soon as you step through the door you w…

I once was beautiful pleasing to everyone's sight
Strong as a raging storm as radiant as the mornings' light
A trader by trade everyone made money with me
Elevated to the heights truly a blessing to see
Knock on my door and I'll let you in
Treasures galore with money to lend
Traveling by day and exchanging by night
Stimulating your mind easing your plight
Come spend some time with me and I promise not to keep you long
Wheeling and dealing for the right price making sure nothings wrong
I have dan…

Family can cause you headaches Family can cause you pain
They can even make your spirits soar every time it rains
There are many sets of family, but only one can be held true
After serious contemplation your thoughts became your point of view
Your friends can be your family the ones you hang with everyday
Hell sometimes they're the only ones that'll listen to what you have to say
Family can be your co-workers the ones that help out in times of need
They might be the only ones that'll loan…

Truthfully I didn't really want to go
Why I didn't want to show no one could really know
Man its crazy, unwilling to unleash these feelings
Why didn't you listen to me? All you had to do was stop those wicked dealings
Finally made up my mind and hopped on the freight
Two blocks from my stop lay an twisted fate
People were everywhere, some smiling, and some laughing
Others seemed at ease and even the children were behaving
Could there be an angel somewhere taming the thoughts of people?…

It's dark outside
With no lights for the ride
Fog is covering the scene
In the darkness you hear a scream
Someone shouldn't have been out there
All alone in no ones care
The rise and fall of footsteps stomping on the ground
Moonlight gleaming off of the bayonets of the British crown
"Is that blood flowing in this direction?", asks a soldier
Let me get a closer look its hard to tell from here
"Keep quiet!" ,was the order continually uttered in the midst of the foreign crowd
"Oh my God we're being…

She is beautiful, such a sight to see
An idol for every woman to want to be
Of course there are others, but there's something about Delilah
That makes all men want to seek after her
Could it be the way she wore her hair or the beautiful eyes she has
Or those luscious lips and fat tits and that nice, round, soft ass
It could even be those pretty legs with her succulent feet
It's also possible that it was her clothes or the way she carried herself to meet
There's something about Delilah that made…
