The Next Level Poem
If I were an Artist...I'd Try to mix my "Manly" Poem words with Music...and Art...Wonder what would Happen?
HHHHMMMM...!? Let's See What Happens...
Daniel Band-I'm Sorry
Read Poetry, Listen to the Music, and See Some Art Work... At The Same Time...If You Can Handle It ! (Try Cranking the Music A Little Loud!)
The Scream
I Screamed because I arrived here ...and I didn't see you...
I commenced my attack on life...and looked around for something else to do!
I hit rock bottom and mashed my poor lil' head...
I got back up...and beat the crap out of that rock bottom...till it was dead!
I laughed when no one did...I cried when no one saw...
I showed up today...like every day...And I was still standing tall!
My life runs through my veins...
My thoughts, My Hopes...And ALL My Pains...!
I came to the fork in the road...and sat for a minute there in the grass...
Then...I got up and walked the road I chose...and told the other one to "Kiss My _ss!"
Daniel Band-Walk on the Water
Ready...For Another One?
It's Under Control...
Think...Think...Think...Work Real Hard...
Mind Your Own Business...Stay In Your Own Front Yard!
You have all the Answers...You Got it Figured out...
You Say You Can't Listen To This...That's What I'm Talking About!
Find A World Around You...Let It Take You In...
Get Mad 'Cause You've Been Offended...Someone Mentioned Sin.
Drop on the Floor...Kick and Scream...All Day...
Why Do You Think You Know So Much...Any Way?
You Have No Control When You Were Born...Or Even Your Next Breath...
Keep It Simple...You're Here For a Reason...Too Much Thinking Bores Me to Death!

Dohn: Thank you, my friend! Thank you for the comment...and the congrats...Really glad you enjoyed this little mix for the senses. These songs were once very much a part of my everyday music...and I was looking for a way to bring them back...into my life...through Art and Poems. Big Thanks to "YouTube" for being a media (though they don't need a thanks from lil' ol' me!) source where folks can place all kinds of stuff that interests them on it...and put it out there for the world! Best of Regards to you, Dohn...as always, MPM
A treat for all the senses here, Manly! I like your selection of music and art. Great job as always. Congrats on 300 fans! Well deserved!

YYYYEEEEHHHHAAAH, Gus: Well Then...Let "The Scream" Ring Out Then, My Friend! Thank you for this comment, Gus.
myownworld: Uh-Oh...The Women Folk are Falling Behind on The Next Level...Perhaps I have found...The Ultimate "Manly" Style of Poetry yet...! Let the Words of One Humble "Manly" Poetry Ring Out In Rock, Bright Visualization Art, and Good ol' "Home-Spun" Horse- Sense "Manly" Poem Words...And Boldly Go Where No Poetry Man Has Gone Before! UUH...Was that over the top? Thank you, myownworld for your comment...and for at least stepping up to the plate...and given 'em a try! MPM.
LittleWhistle: Glad you liked it...Thank you for stoppin' in and reading my mesh of Music, Art, and "Manly" Poetry!
Candie V: Ahhh...Just having fun the "Manly" Poetry man way there, CV... and branching out into the unknown...and setting a new course straight ahead into the "muck of things"! : ) How will we know what new...and strange weird things...are out there in our world of the mediocre...if we can not "crank-it-up" every now and then? Ha! Thank you for your comments and for visitin' me at "The Next Level"...my friend! Talk w/ ya more later...This is MPM...Signing Out of the known world for now!
XTASIS: So good to see you...I know tantrum is a little taken back by the awesome power of Music, Art, and "Manly" Poetry...all together. Just give her time...and lots of patience...and Pretty Soon...she will get it! I hear tell...she is quite an Artist herself...? But enough of her...let's talk about you... : ) ! How did you enjoy this strange collaboration of the many various spectrums that this here Hub was able to convey...? Just kiddin' with ya'...Glad you stopped in for a visit and comment, MPM.
Don't pay attention to tantrum ! You know she's crazy ! I understand you ,manly ! But really, how can you read a poem while someone is singing a song at the same time !Explain ! LOL !!
"came to the fork in the road...and sat for a minute there in the grass...
Then...I got up and walked the road I chose...and told the other one to "Kiss My _ss!".."
Well, this is new and different! I see MPM is branching out.. taking the world by storm! That is 'crank-it-up' music at its finest! What fun! Thank you for rocking my morning!
It's amazing the power of music and words, and you found a great way to mesh them! Thanks MPM! "Drop on the Floor...Kick and Scream...All Day..." Love it!!
ah....so you push all senses to the limit here? ok. I did all three justice...lol...but in turns only!! sorry, have always been a 'one to one' kind! Have to say, poetry was the best though ;) take care...and keep sharing!
MPM - Aaaahhh ! The Scream was a good one, my friend. Gus

prettydarkhorse: Oh No...Another Lady has fallen out in my quest to bring the World..."Manly" Poetry, Music, and Art...pray tell...Say it isn't so? Perhaps...I could tone it down a little? NNNAAAHHH...let it Rock...Let the Art spew forth crazy colors...let the crazy mix of "Manly" Poetry take over! Won't you please come back and give the Next Series of Next Level "Manly" Poems a try...as they are completed of course...PDH!? Your tough...you can handle it :) ! Sincerely, MPM.

tantrum: Your funny...I cant believe you you are going to be the first to admit to me...that you can't handle: Poetry, Art, and Music, at the same time...say it isn't so? : ) Thank you for reading my poems though...I'm glad you liked the drawings...I know you are into Art. Maybe try again on the Next Level...when I do some more of these?
I couldn't manage to listen to the music and read the poem at the same time! How can you do it, When a guy is singing at the same time you're reading a poem ? LOL !
I liked the drawings ! ...And I liked the poems when I put the music off ! lol

Thank you so much, Laura du Toit...Very Awesome Comment...If I do say!
Wow Maven...Like Clay that is taken away while sculpting...how powerful of a comment is that!
Thank you, my friends!
When a sculptor creates a statue he doesn't add more clay...he takes away a little at a time, some from the head and some from the body, until he reaches the inner soul that was lurking there all the time...You have given us an amazing panoply of Art, Music, and prose...My senses are sated...Thank you, my friend...Larry
Brilliant!
