An apes dialogue with the narcissist, Part A, 'Knowledge is Power'

"You've never known me" said the ape to the narcissist. "why do you say that? " they replied. "Because if you really knew me, we would be friends, real friends, true friends".

The narcissist was puzzled. They were lonely and alone, didn't portray this outwardly, but inside they despised themself.

"Why cant you just be nice?" asked the ape. "I am nice" they said, but the eyes didn't say this, they said the opposite, dark and deathly.

"No, you're not".... "you're a facade"... "when you're alone in bed, at night, you feel miserable"... "This, is your state of being", said the ape.

"I'm not" they replied. "I'm a friendly person, just very at ease with everyone, not just with you"...

The ape knowing the ego of the narcissist, knew their game, but refused to play. The ape wouldn't be drawn in. Turned away and left.

They stood for a short while looking at the ape walk. They thought "a chance gone missing". It cut straight to their heart.

The ape was clear and grounded. "Bully... You've never controlled me and never will." The ape felt sorry for others, who they had overcome with charm and charism, poor helpless people, unaware and weaker than the ape. The ape felt glad and empowered.

The ape took a deep breath and whispered "I know............
why be the timid moon and stars in the dark, when you can be the dazzling sun in the daylight?"

Socrates 470-399 B.C - "know thyself"


Where is your strength?

I am anxious because I care,

I am emotional because I have feelings, 

I am sensitive because I empathise,

If any of you are like this rejoice! 


If any man be kind and feel love, let him enjoy his shining triumph. If any man have knowledge, let him enter into the joy of his life. If any have worked long, let him now receive his gifts, If any have fought hard, let him today receive his reward, thankfulness, no harm, defying and fearing nothing! 

For you are a giver of gifts, the gift of loving-kindness. Let no one feel his poverty, let no one weep for his weakness, let no one fear mental torment, set yourself free! 

He that was held mental prisoner of mental torment, has annihilated it! By descending into mental torment, He made torment a slave! 


Torment was bitter, for it was eradicated. It was bitter, for it was ruined. It was bitter, for it was devastated. It was bitter, for it was uncovered. It was bitter, for it was held down in chains.

Torment where is your strength? Torment where is your gut? Torment where is your courage? Torment where is your charm and where is your charisma now? You are an empty soul and an empty heart. I am still strong and you are overthrown, and you are fallen, I rejoice and life reigns, and not one tormented soul remains!


I am strong, as I fight and I struggle,

I am stronger, as I have courage, 

I am strength, as I am free! 

The Soldier

Tenacious in effort & 
Blessed with true friends, 
He sees Truth in sight, 
His spirit is strong & 
immense in might! 

Humility is his belief, 
Seeks positive action and will,  
Leaving weakness in its wake, 
The negative he will kill, 
For his friends sake!

His goodness isn't weak, 
His judgement isn't wrong, 
Indeed he is sensitive, 
But impeccably strong! 

His standards are high, 
Though he is meek, 
His heart doesn't lie, 
His mind isn't weak! 

Judgement is not for him, 
Its the Truth that bears weight, 
Solid and centred within, 
Seeks love and not hate! 

He finds the life and the way, 
He has ascended, 
Every moment of every day, 
Truth and life blended, and indeed splendid! 

In life courage is a must, 
Working hard he sweeps the dust, 
From the soles of his feet, 
No lies, he does not cheat, 
He is complete in feeling the heat, 
The heat is the litmus test, 
Are you crippled or the best? 
The best is the lowly, 
The best is the meek, 
The best is least, 
The humble is the peak! 

Poetry is masculine and grounded, 
Poetry is words from the heart, 
The Psalms by God were founded, 
Prayers and poetry are never apart! 

King David was a soldier, Saint Velimirovich a poet, St Ephrem The Syrian's hymns to paradise, don't you know it?! Like the soldier they wrote directly to God, 
Please Lord, fore the soldier knows You have strength to give! 
Faith in His Resurrection, 
Is the Way to live!

Domination is insecurity,
Subjection is incorrect, 
Control is frailty, 
Imposition is disrespect! 

The soldier wins every time, 
The soldier is free, 
The soldier is bold in his humility! 

The soldier is the greatest, 
He is the least, 
He is like a child, 
He is meek and mild! 

The soldier is a lion in a cave, rugged and undoubtedly brave, 
He is robust and not naive, 
He is concave, bent over in worship, not to man, but to the Almighty, and when stood upright, he is not an ego, but in awe of the greatness he sees, 
The birds and the bees, 
plants and the trees, 
light of the sun, 
mountains and lanes, 
oceans and the seas, 
bolders and grains.
Moonshine is weak, compared to the bright sun, the sun has won as its light is stronger and its rays travel longer, 
The Truth is not hidden in darkness, 
But shows its face in the light, 
His silence speaks faithful volumes,
Annihilating evil, 
Annihilating the lies, 
The Truth is not a facade, 
The Truth is not pretence, 
The Truth says what He is to your face, 
Doesn't sit on the fence! 
No hidden secrets, 
No hidden flaws, 
No hiding,
No trapdoors! 

The soldier sees the good, 
The war is in the mind, 
For the sighted and not the blind, 
The blind are those without the truth within, 
Who have no true fight, 
The blind are the losers, 
The losers are the choosers, 
Who chose hate over love, 
True love is from up above, 
And descends from the Dove! 

The soldier will always be here, 
Present and correct, 
Left, right, left, right.. 
To fight the hardest fight, 
He salutes the brave and the bold, 
The young and the old, 
The ruler and the meek... 

He's not perfect, nobody is, 
He has weakness, 
But is not weak! 
He accepts his flaws, 
He is sometimes wrong, 
But, 

For When I am weak, then I am Strong!!! 



Strength & Love

When a man does what he wants and can see the key in life, 
When his feet move with purpose and his thoughts are clear, 
When grip on the trophy strengthens with every beam of light, 
When he holds his head up high, 
When at home and in life, 
When his heart mends with the simplest touch, 
When he's found his mind and sees his life ahead of him, 
When friends are greater than ever before, 
When mother forgives and father a wonderful cause, 
When brothers and sisters have faith, 
When their worship is on the right path, 
When you choose a road that is straight and narrow, 
When your son carries you in your life, 
When your father lays his hand on your beautiful mind, 
When the bond of them both travels to your soul, 
When it ignites a wisdom of sight, 
When your fingers clutch flowers in the garden. 

You're able to do with the key as you please, 
And open the great door, 
Your feet rise from the ground as does your head, 
Your wounds are healed by his touch, 
And sleep comes within your bed, 
Your home is love, 
Your heart is strong, 
Your friend is your friend, 
Your mind is yours, 
Your mother and father are with you, 
They are the seed and the new shoot, 
And your brother and sister follow the same road, 
When you see what I see infront of me, 
You long to touch it with every finger, 
You see a gift,  
Something that opens the world to love. 





The truth is...

The truth is
The truth always prevails, 
In God we trust, 
And In life courage is a must! 
Evil is recognised
And swiped aside, 
Like a feather to the dust, 
We relinquish the rust!

The measure of a man, 
Is not what he does for himself, 
But, what he does for someone else, 
Out of the goodness of his heart, 
In life, we got to play this part, 
There is an art to life, 
Its called loving kindness, 
From the depths of your soul, 
You've got to control the evil within, 
Break it, crush it, fight the power of sin, 
The wonder of life is the gift it will bring, 
I've been through to hell, 
I've got a story to tell, 
Now I know where I'm headed, 
I'm heaven bound and my feet are grounded and bedded. 

The truth is 
We've got to show remorse, 
In inner strength there is absolute force, 
The force of will, 
The strength of character and guts, 
The heart overcomes all ifs and buts. 
In hesitation to realise you're wrong, 
This is Weakness and for good you're gone! 

The truth is 
The truth looks you in the face with silence and knows, 
Humble, meek, with strength beyond strength, 
No bragging or boasting, 
No to the devil be toasting, 
No two faces, but a straight clear road, 
If you step off it you will be told, 
Cut to the chase, 
The truths face you will face. 

Don't play the righteous card, 
When you're not righteous, 
To be the ace, 
You've got to see the face,
Of Truth and back down! 
Else be annihilated as man,
you're not a boy, 
Only be inebriated with love and joy, 

The truth is
There is always hope, 
Admit your ways and change, 
Change for good! 
Like a boy in the hood, 
Who went the wrong way, 
There is another day, 
No more lies, no more games, 
No more frames or blames, 
The spirit within does rise above it all, 
Its not the best who wins, 
Its the test that brings, 
Character out into daylight, 
And we see your true fight! 
Champions are made from stern stuff, 
Hard to crack, you've got mine, I've got your back! 

A friend in need is a friend indeed! 
Untouchable in honesty, 
Unbreakable in trust, 
The thrust of the truth is, 
Is the crux of the matter, 
If you don't get it, 
Your dreams will shatter, 
Starting fresh is a good thing, 
Change of heart and a change of mind, 
You'll see a new life, with new eyes of a beautiful kind! 




Respect 💪🏻

Respect is being humble, 
Respect is being grateful, 
Respect is action, 
Not just words in transaction!

Respect is selfless, 
Respect is courteous, 
Respect is strong mentality, 
Not bullying, cowardice or brutality.

Respect is positive, not a negative way of living, its a practical and accepting method of giving. It's not taking and using or abusing, its polite, its welcoming and its helping, and it's choosing winning and it's never losing.

Being the best is a test of pride, does your ego expand or do you let humility stride? Fore nobody is perfect, nobody is king, we all have weakness, we all have limitations, respect is the greatest of qualifications!

Go forth with courage and love in your heart, but from arrogant pride steer clear and far apart.

Accept respect and not a self centred self, rejection comes from a natural selection in stealth. I need peace in my mind and comfort inside, I back off from people who do not abide, by a code of conduct I conduct myself by, as parasites, aggression, filthy narcissistic obsession, is the opposite to my own personal progression!

That all said and done, its very simple at heart, its an action, its a value, its a noble art! Treat people the way you want to be treated! In this way respect will never be defeated! 

Battered and Fried (The Opposition)

This B team woz
Bragging n boasting,
Its us who was hosting,
In our manor and our land! 
The arrogance, the nerve, 
This behaviour, I could not understand!

The game began, 
They looked mediocre at best, 
A battle royal, a royal rumble, 
Now I thought, their ready to crumble, 
We went ahead in humility, 
They wouldn't pass their test! 
With strength WE did the rest! 

Fired up, they got robust,
Our team hard as nails feathered the dust! .. shook off the rust! 

Our Goals rippled the net
Goal after goal,
13 in all.. unlucky for some!
AK47 kalashnikov fun!

Their heads went down, 
The mind games had ended! 
They lacked heart and fight, 
They gave up, they surrendered! 

They weeped and cursed, and lost, 
Victory is sweet when its a win at all cost! Now the moral of this tail is the humble will win, we got through it, through the thick and the thin! 

Where are you?

Where are you? When I'm alone in the dark, When everyone is so distant and cold, Where are you? Where are you?  When I'm sad and con...
