Array ( [sid] => 941 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Superman Syndrome [time] => 2002-07-22 12:36:51 [hometext] => typically, we are divided into categories because somehow it just seems easier to lable people than to understand them. Males are taught either through socialization or direct instruction that they must never show any sign of weakness. We should have evolved from this primal state by now. [bodytext] => You like to think my emotions are made of
steel, so now i'm afraid to express how I
truly feel. Nothing seems to bother me oh!
this is too surreal. Surely on some level you
must understand I am a merely a man, and
even when I appear weak it doesn't mean we
can't be strong.

Stop forcing me to do this alone what
happened to us becoming one? People think
I'm controlling but you wont tell them they
are wrong.

Let's quell this think before it erupts and
will the real superman please stand up.

I love it written from the heart. It is true that we believe that men should not show their emotions. I know for a fact that I feel uncomfortable to be around any man that will openly cry.But I`m slowly comming around to accepting the fact that you men are humans too and that you too have feelings.
a fantastic write.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
