[/size][/center]Below is Michele's favorite original poem. Enjoy Fam...
Proprietor of She
She teased me with her delicate flowery scent
As if the art of seduction was hers and hers alone
She beckoned me to break my sacred beliefs
Drawing me to her like the impervious moth to a flame
Her swagger swayed on for days endlessly, effortlessly
She held my gaze pulling me into a hypnotic state
Daring me to fly closer and closer still on wings of indecency
I was helpless to her calling my name whispered sweet
As if the taste of her was my last meal lest starvation
She knew what she was doing and she did it well
Creating abandonment of honored traditions
Man and woman unified
had no hold over her unrestraint control
Her hauteur lips held impatient desires abated religious beliefs
Only religion she lived for was the carnal lusts of her soul
Ravishingly devouring my inhibitions wantonly
She was beautiful simply stated and I
I was hopeless to fight her
Controlled by her meticulously painted mouth
She crept into the crevices of my scarred being
Promising solvent remedies fortifying resolve respectably
As if she and she alone could reward the underprivileged
With her capabilities strung out for piercing eyes to behold
Savoring her ability to wreak havoc she claimed me
Ingested my being with her carnivorous sways
She lay in wake to conquer my every waking thought
And I helplessly allowed her entrance to my perplexities
She held transparent transgressions spellbound
Binding my timid shyness she enraptured my mind, body and soul
Torturously enslaved reckless abandonment bound
Me to her until I conceded to her constellation of demands
She wanted me and make no bones about it she was prepared
To digest every facet of my being till ownership bred and
Proprietor of she I did become

Ol'Skool's Scribe of the Month: Undress You
[/font][/center][/u]Scribed by: PoeticRebellion
I hope you're imaginative...
Pretend that my pen
possesses the power
of idol hands...
Pinching gripping
stripping away
shredded strands
of cloth soaked in
tortured tears
shed by the very
essence of She...
Heavenly Femininity
Scripts wit ravenously
rips down your
brown sundress
A tear raises from
your cheek and
plummets to Pluto
My words grip and
slowly slip your
spaghetti strap shirt
with a pineapple haze
over your hair
devoid of care.
Another tear's rise
it rides over a rainbow
Finally she can spread
her wings & glow
My lyrics glide in
currents that slide
off secrets hiding
in your undergarments
Any tears that traced
your face burn in
a blaze revealing grace
I know...it's cold
And now that I
got you naked
You may use me
as your blanket
But I want
your most sacred
Pretend that my pen
possesses the power
of idol hands...

Straight From the Headlines!!!
Millen Fired!!!
[/font][/center][/u]Millen Fired!!!
The Lions have finally removed team president and GM Matt Millen from his post, FOXSports.com has learned, unseating one of the most criticized executives in Detroit sports history.
Millen was informed of the move Tuesday night during a late-night high-level meeting. Wednesday morning several people within the building confirmed that he had large packing boxes in his office and he made his way around to different employees telling them of the move.
It is unclear if Millen was fired or removed himself from the equation but the news comes just days after Bill Ford, Jr. publicly stated he would have fired the GM if it was his decision.
The Lions have started off horribly and the groundswell for Millen's demise has once again been strong. That's nothing new — events like the Millen Man March, an in-game walkout protest, and calls for Millen's firing have been going on for years.
The Lions are an NFL-worst 31-84 since Millen took over in 2001. They have also been a model of futility on the road and Millen has gone through three head coaches, none of whom have been able to turn the Lions into a winner.
Detroit has started the season 0-3 and is surrendering 37.6 points per game, the second-highest total in the NFL.
