BIG BUTCH BARKS BACK


Created for some of the more raw and painful aspects of growing up different. Sometimes angry, sometimes funny, always honest. Sometimes, the language is very harsh because pain is not gentle.

I am determined to chronicle all aspects of living with absolute candor and genuineness. It allows a connection with others at a deep soul level because they see that you understand their struggles when you reveal your own. If you are offended by cursing or expect the beauty you see on my other blog, Whisper Creek, then you may want to avoid this one. This is the very human side of me, the one God plainly sees. It is the part that God is healing. Let that be my witness.

Children of Heaven




I just don't understand
why love is so foreign to you
but you find hate so easy
gather your posse and your crew.

Shave your head to i.d. yourself
wear momma's robe of white
cover yourself though you say your proud
shout "white power" in the dark of night.

Go ahead and burn your crosses
it only goes to show
how little you can think
and how little you really know. 

Don't you understand and realize
We're all just one big race
The children of Heaven
all with a different kind of face?

So throw your hate under the bus
and in the back sit down your ass 
until you let your guard down
and learn its love you need to pass.

  1. I think it comes from a need to feel relevant, powerful & sadly superior. Instead of working to love themselves, they take the easy way & pick on others whom are minority... to make themselves feel included or part of something better (majority). We MUST fight them (every person looking to hate), even unto death. ~ Shannon
