The other day, Mr. Man was pompous in his ability to sway attention.
Mr. Man said…he is minding his business and any mention or forward of me was unwelcome!
You see, Mr. Man stands on shaky ground, with the inability to be “man” enough to be humble and yet own his ground.
Mr. Man disillusioned himself enough to think that the world resolves around him…in his desire for importance, Mr. Man was quick to throw around his money and his pomp!
You see, Mr. Man was my friend but Mr. Man imagined that the world was rotating in motion around him. It was our fault, we let him inflate enough for him to float in air.
So I am praying for Mr. Man to come back to ground. We are hoping that he will be able to dwell among normal people.
But if he doesn't...I guess there was never redemption. [Selah]
Mr. man went MIA and had us tapping the dial to find him. He said the busy got him tied up. We are praying that the busy is not escapism.
Mr. man left his post unattended, we decided to learn to live without him. It is funny how you can learn to do without somethings...even people who used to be a norm.
Mr. Man will return someday, and we will have moved past his presence. I wonder if he will have cooled off his self importance... I wonder. But until then...
I hope you who is reading this will see yourself in the eyes of normal men and be able to live among others...well enough not to assume relevance beyond the norm.
I hope that pride might not blind you from how worldly crowns mean nothing.
PS. IN DEDICATION TO MR. MAN[Yemanyi]
