If only you could see the vision
Now deeply living inside my mind
Feeling the peace which now stays
Knowing your love is only mine.
If only you could feel the passion
Which each new day is on the rise,
Then you would never worry at all
For you will never face lonely times
I truly love you deep within my heart
With a pure power that never ends
And every time I awaken to your smile
Its life essence selflessly begins
For I feel what you have given me
With the love you allow me to seize
Binds me tightly to a fervent need
To have your love always next to me.

When a relationship is based
on a red hot snapper
with a knockout wrapper
that builds a fire in your jeans.
This kind of marriage is for
the movie screen.
In time the snapper cools down.
The knockout wrapper isn't
quite the knockout it used to be
and the fire in your jeans is on it's way out.
This is now the beginning of the end.
You don't really know each other
your not even friends
and now the fights begin.
If you had picked your wife for life
with the head on your shoulders
instead of the one between your knees,
you might have found a wife for life
instead of a high maintenance money pit
that you can't please.

In love I was lost
I plunged headlong
Oblivious of the consequences
For she was fair to behold
E'en fairer than the lily of the garden
She took me by my hand
And together we strolled
We explored the new frontiers of love
My company she greatly adored
Until she couldn't break free
From the spell of love
Cast on her by fate
Uhm! It's amazing what love can do
Damning the consequences
I forged ahead with my newfound love
Paradise was unraveled before me
An adventure of some sort it seemed
"Give it a try," I urged myself
Shutting my mind deliberately to the odds
For if she had known
Then she wouldn't have allowed me
Entry into her life
But her actions defies all explanation
Void envelopes her being in my absence
What had suddenly come over her?
In so short a while
When she laughed, I laughed
When I cried, she cried as well
The blissful times we shared were dear
Held close to my heart like a testament
"Could anything be this cherished?" I thought
Life definitely seemed very good
She withdrew at certain times
Not because she was through with me, nay!
But she remembers her Man-the Man
"You cannot understand," she tells me
"You cannot understand," she affirms
I am another Man's wife
Like a thief in the night
Her man came
The show he stole
For he had cut short his journey
Unannounced he strolled into the scene
After all he owned the show
He assumes his manly duties once again
Giving her love and succor as it were
He was the man, I was a villain
I was soon relegated to the rear
Despondency and dejection became my theme song
Jealousy I spat out like bile
No one would empathize my shattered heart
For I was warned before hand
Not to fall in love with
Another Man's wife.

When I saw a diamond
yesterday, I saw the fire
which lives in your eyes
I saw the deep blazing
beauty that often causes
grown men to cry
I felt the pains that
many in life endure,
who suddenly find a
very deep need…
To have that fire alive
within the diamonds heart
become the one to satisfy
their daily needs
For in that tiny window
I saw something precious
which might even compare
to you
Yet when I saw your
smile as the sun rose
this morning I could no
longer continued with
this sad ruse
For even though the
brilliant flame of a
diamond, will burn so
very bright…
Even its brilliance alone
can never compare to the
radiance that daily fills
your eyes with its exquisite
All men (the loser boyfriends/husbands) think that it's their right to be physically, mentally, and verbally abusive toward their female companions (girlfriends/wives), well they're wrong. Most guys are always beating their girlfriends/wives up every single day just because they didn't make their men dinner, do chores around the house, or whatever. It seems that these womanizing losers are way better than their women. Actually, they're not; they're idiots. Controlling these women and being physically, mentally, and verbally abusive toward them don't make these Neanderthals men; they're like childish cowards. All guys think that they're the only breadwinners in their families and the women aren't. But guess what--they're not; some of them don't have jobs. And does anyone knows what gets on my nerves? Men always cheating on their girlfriends/wives with other women, getting them pregnant, and not taking care of the children they already have. And those controlling, abusive men, they're always telling their female spouses/lovers what to do, what to eat, where to look, and who to talk to. I mean, who are these womanizing losers to judge other men and to boss these women around? I mean, who does that? Everybody doesn't even know why they'd bother spending the rest of their lives with those abusive idiots. This whole saying by these controlling abusive men have been getting on everybody's nerves and my nerves, as well: "You're-not-to-speak-unless-spoken-to," this "You're-not-to-talk-to-your-family" ordeal, this whole "You're-not-to-have-guy-friends," and this whole "You need me! You're nothing without me! You have no money! You have no friends! Everything's in my name: the house, the cars, clothes, everything I own! You're useless! You're worthless! I own you for life! And you will respect me!" Where I come from, the rest of us nicer guys, we treat our women with the respect they rightfully deserve. The last time I checked, the mothers have raised their sons to treat women and other people with respect, but they now know where they've gone wrong with those womanizing clowns. My suggestion for the women is for them to leave their abusive husbands/boyfriends before it's too late because if they don't, they'll end up in the hospital or the morgue. To be honest, these women, they never should've met, let alone dated or married those abusive men to begin with. And if these abusive men think that they can control those women forever, they've got another coming.

Have you ever imagined the world we live without women?
It is like a lung without some oxygen, agonizing and inevitably dead,
A face never with a smile, boring and unfriendly.
A cup of tea without some grains of sugar, bitter and foul,
A pool without some water, dry and empty,
A good ride on a bad untilled road, rough and uninteresting,
The earth without some drops of rain, an inescapable famine,
But how come with the great number of women on planet earth?
We still live to cry as a reggae legend sang "no woman no cry",
It is because they permit evil as much as they permit good,
Gullible and instrumental in the hand of the wicked ones,
Ugly and nice, beautiful and dangerous,
Cunning like serpents, deceitful like chameleon,
Holy but liars, having a form of godliness but highly ungodly,
Lovely like little puppies, sweet like bees honey,
Women, an invincible force in our our world today.

I remember thinking to myself, you can get a good night's sleep even after a bad day.
It was 3 years ago today when I woke up, packed my belongings and left for good.
You were standing there at the bus stop and asked me how my day was.
I wasn't sure if I could respond....But I knew I should.
Reply to Her that is.... Not many people ever care, but she does I thought.
I knew where I was standing but deep down I felt lost.
You stood there and I felt a little less lost.
A block away from my home....from my old home, I realized.
I felt found standing next to you.
I replied. "Couldn't be better"
But I was never good at lying.
And you were good at poker.
My bluff was called.
I wake up every now and then and think of the moment you lifted me.
With your words.
You didn't even know my name. You didn't even know what you were doing.
You did it.
Now 4 years later happily married, I still wake up in the middle of the night.
I visualize the shoe's I was wearing, the dirty white laces that seemed to me not to be tied. Like a loose stage of my life.
But you tied them. I was the left lace, you the right.
And every now and then when I look up in this dream I see my wife's beautiful eyes standing next to me, other time's its an angel. One and the same they are.
My bluff was called.
She said "You have the same look I had not but a few weeks ago. But your tone of voice is a lot more obvious."
"Were still out there" She says and looks up at the clouds.
She meant women you can love. I knew what she meant.
"Are you out there?" I replied.
"No." She says.
"I'm right here".

My best friend is just a few yards away
not feeling well she's had a long day.
Right now in our bedroom watching a cooking show
I don't under stand it, she knows all there is to know.
As with every thing else she always wants to do better
she gives it her best even when she's under the weather.
My best friend is my most loving wife
She has given me the best years of her life.
It's been thirty nine years since I took her as my bride
That's thirty nine years with my best friend by my side.
A lot has happened since our day in September
some things forgotten but the best I still remember.
I remember the warmth and passion of our youth
I still feel it when I think of you and that's the truth.
I remember worrying that my job would call me away
all I ever wanted was to come home to you everyday.

Softly sleep my darling
kindly resting your mind
your heart and eyes
Know as you sleep you
are protected as I will
never leave your side
And dream my dearest
sweet dreams, of the
way your life should be
And in your dreams
as you rest my darling
please always find a
place for me
Just softly sleep my
darling, and as you
do, you will find it
to be
That even in your dreams
at night, you'll feel
the peace which our love
For love you are so
wonderful and the
Truest pleasure of
life to me
So while you close your
eyes to quietly rest,
know by your side I will
always be.
This is a rat infested; flea bitten, trash seeking, concrete hardened,
Winter frozen, nose closing stench I call life.
Poverty my wife:
Ash my nourishment; paper my blanket; disorder my order;
Sewage my water; concrete my mattress; streets my room
No-one is who I am
Living to see another day my plan
Been all over the place but still the same street
Cracked the hardest sole by the greater feet,
Which though winter or summer bring the strongest cold?
To crack a smile of serenity, freeing me, peacefully
Un-comprehended but well complemented
But can't dare to share it
With my enemies: the rich; the government; the wealthy
I salute you poverty, there were not supposed to be
Don't they know the richer they are the poorer I become
I know that I'm black but poverty is where I'm from
They may get richer in rand but I've got more in cent
Common and the ones jingling in my pants
That's why I say:
"This is a rat infested; flea bitten, trash seeking, concrete hardened,
Winter frozen, nose closing stench I call LIFE."

My love is more than
just the tiny words,
that find a welcome
place within your heart
My love is more than
the feelings felt, when
you allow my love in
your heart to start
For my love is more
than what your eyes
see, as you lovingly
gaze my way
For my love is the
same as the love you
feel deep in your
gentle heart each day.
Kill a smile with a kiss
The demise of it will visit you in your dreams
Never will I let you
Drown in a pool of angry thoughts
I will be your unexpected smile
Every time I bring u roses b4 valentine
A wet poem I would recite for you
I would make you my 1st rhyme
your heart-beat will rhyme
Twist my beat box
Into a love song
A cartoon I would paint in your heart to keep you smiling
Your twin smiles I would define in vernacular
Though I speak no language from Peninsula
My parents will define your beauty as African splendor
Black mother nation
Smile please smile

I can't wait to have a love match
With you in a love nest
Surrounded by love-lies-bleeding
Sitting on the love seat
Where we hold a love knot together
And with love beads around your neck
After which we'll travel down to Love-land
Where we will be joined in a love-in
(c) 2010
Love help me go to sleep last night
She made my dreams peaceful and sweet
She caused laughter in my heart to rise
Leaving memories for my heart to keep
Her love awoken me this morning
With a smile that's one of a kind
It embraced me with such a warmth
I was proud that her love is mine
And love sent me on my way today
Off into this world's daily grind
In her heart her eyes were on me
As she thought of me all the time
At the end of the day while tired
Love found the time to lift my heart
For she kissed me twice upon my lips
For this time of day is her best part.
Final Wishes of a Poet
Arabic poem By: Rukn-al-Din Yunus
Translated into English By:
Inaam Al-Hashimi (Gold_N_Silk)
(Part 1 of 3)
Lend me a handful of earth
So that I may make you a statue
You have not seen the like before
In your dreams.
Lend me a breath of spring
I'll paint you cities, seashores
And passionate rendezvous.
Lend me some of your crazy letters
And I will dispatch couriers
To deliver them to gardens
And send elegantly dressed devotees
With a touch of sadness
To receive them from the gardens
And read them to the river.
Lend me some of the words
Escaping from under your hat,
Which has no resemblance to Pablo Neruda's,
To write you an epic
Spelled out by tyrants
Every night
To cry their own fates in the morning.
Lend me an evening you could spare
To romp through virtual streets
Named after living poets
From different generations
Wherein a river of music goes over the heads of passersby
Drowning all in ageless glamour.
Lend me the rest of the golden letters
In your pocket
To disperse them over the outskirts of my words
And the lanterns of my dreams
To light up what's left of the opaque sentences
In the imagination of the painter
And the wisdom of the poet
Who is crazed about the clay
On the banks of the Hilla River.
(Part 2 of 3)
I'll die tonight...
O my dear wife!
I've never liked farewell ceremonies
In my life
So let things be normal and quiet.
Forgive me! I will not kiss you tonight
Just lie down beside me on the bed
For now.
Don't tell the boys about my no-return journey
Don't let the girls cry with you
Especially the married one
And the little one
The middle one as well.
Let everything be as ordained for me
By those I don't know
All I know for sure
I will die tonight.
How? ..... I do not know!
How? ..... I do not know!
At what time? …. The mind of the poet is unable to tell.
I will die my dear wife
Don't forget to feed the dog "Yoyo" early in the morning.
Don't neglect spraying the garden
First in the morning
Even if it was time for the funeral.
And don't forget the seven o'clock news
Listen to it for the sake of your love for me
They always mention news of the lost homeland.
Don't forget ever....
The chicken feed
I'd like to hear
The cock's crow every morning in my grave.
And hide the empty wine bottles
Out of the sight of mourners...
I don't want them to accuse poets of infidelity.
And if they ask you
What was with him before he died?
Just tell them:
He forgot to live!
(Part 3 of 3)
Before I died
My wife made me a clay statue
And cried at it
She and her five daughters did.
But my two sons took no notice
Of their mother crying
Nor of their sisters wearing black
But, rather,
They seized the opportunity
And went out to join their peers
In a football game!
Before I died
My friends vied
And jostled in front of
Mercenary and non-mercenary newspapers' buildings
Led by "Riyadh Alghareeb"
To provide their elegies for my immortal soul
Which reminds them of their own
As they greet death.
And since that day
I am holding on to my soul
Lest it slips away
In a moment
Of inattention
From me
The poet

A Kis
Do eye need a kis. Eye need a girl to kis. Eye have a girl that eye can kis.
Eye have kis her in the rain. Eye have kis her in mye heart. Eye have kis her in
mye start of every day for years of love. Eye have only to the kis to go to read more
into kis to find the place she dwells in this old mortal frame of yearning
dwelling place. The kis is purple bliss of alarm blazing love waking me from
death like a Snow White Charmed young man a captive smith to Pocahontas
fame. A dandelion flower lost in the caverns of the depths Ianthe drowning mee
in sea ward tufts of left and right bouts of beating on the air to keep from sliding
to the depths of drowning in her arms of love. A leap at faith a death reprieved
from Grounded Grave a leaping portent making waves of Gragon wings. An
attitude of love refrained in every tuft of wind again the sound of love the beating
of the water on the roof of tin the sound of kis inside the wind and rain. A younger
man and woman would have hardware in the way the nose and yes the nose gay
and the corners of the vampyrific fangs. The center of the tongue is one the belly
button too. The snooker table has a cue it's called the ball extender bridge it's a
cheater it's made to let the basest man to reach her in the wind. There is so
many problems with people the gas is oughta sight at the pumps this country is
no longer prominent but a third world country going south. The end of time has
come and arrived the ruthless and worthless rule in the name of god money and
time. Take a number wait in line what's your name please fill this out and wait.
The number of his namme. Have you got a credit card or payment of any kind iff
you can give me seven dollars for an office visit eye will help you the doctor is inn.
The man was lighting a candle in front of the computer and the lieberrian asked
him what do you think you are doing he said eye cannot see the screen. There is
not very many rich people in all those cars on the highway whizzing by the most of
them is middle class or less the plastic hose on the back seat is a siphon they
use it to get gas. Eye had too many problems at home growing up to ever be a
father. The age factor plus the drug indicator keeps me from trying to further my
benefactor with fodder or with mudder. The morality of this hurried fable of
dividing documents is this a kis.

I'm The Phoenix
* * *
Perhaps I'm meant to carry
these burdens alone;
to struggle to a new level
of achievement
only to find it's all been an illusion;
to have my load
come crashing in around me,
only to have it lifted again.
If that's so let it be.
For I only lose to those who
not enjoy my labor,
perhaps I'm the Phoenix
that's meant to have many love's
within me as this world go
though it's cycles as
I grow more common then
to self-destruct with
flames of slow desires and excess,
if this is true so be it.
For then how I can still lose
when I fail to rise again,
when I'm meant to have you
put before me to gaze and crave upon and to share
even but for a fraction before having you wrenched
away without even a smile
when I reach out touching you?
If that's truth so be it. for I only lose when
I fail trying to stretch out for you
at the end of my life!

No one really knows
The True Mr. Right or the true Mr. Wrong
They all come singing, the same sad song
Her dad once told her Mr. Right
Will choose the right path to God
Mr. Wrong would lie, cheat
Make your head go round and round
Mr. Right would have dignity and pride
Mr. Wrong, false promises then hide
Ever hear Trini Mr. right or a Trini Mr. Wrong?
Full ah ma-ma-guy, fake smile...man be gone
Remember, be careful choosing Mr. Right
Be fearful of Mr. Wrong
And analyze all, their sad songs...

Though many have lost the battle, can I go forward in a worthy pursuit?
For those who's pursuit of chastity in marriage grinds to an unhappy halt,
could it not be due in part to being pulled toward illusions of grandeur?
Can I have my cake and eat it too? Can it be beautiful and forbidden too?
Am I listening to the sound of music never designed for winners?
Do I look with glee through glasses neither half full nor half empty?
Am I salivating over portraits created by mirages in the desert?
Are marriages endurable or even survivable?
The continuous grind of interpersonal conflicts;
The verbal, emotional, and physical abuse;
And the devastating effects of 'an affair';
The rights of life and liberty;
And the pursuit of happiness too;
true values, deeply rooted in the fiber of my being.
The purchase of certain liberties demands a hefty price.
I then consider the pleasure gained versus a life of pain.
So I pause to ponder the horrendous cost of broken vows.
But why do I not turn my eyes, and slowly walk away?
Why do I allow such noble dreams to become nightmares?
With two ears, I pursue chastity.
In one ear I hear a voice, saying,
"With just one secluded night of infidelity,
you could be infused with adventure and pleasure".
That voice, so crystal clear, so pleasing and promising;
It's the sound of charm and enchantment; a costly voice.
So I close the other ear that's projecting a voice of caution and reason.
It says to me, "Please don't because you would lose a lasting bond of trust".
Is it just me, or do I see a dying breed of the trusted and the faithful?
Is it just me, or are we growing indifferent to the tried and the true?
I hear the noise of fun and games, but I hear the children crying too.
Is there anybody trying to be reliable, like the rising and setting sun? 04282015PSContest, A Sexy Surreal, Lewis Raynes

I see the sail disappearing
Upon the horizon blue.
Waves crashing on the shore
As mind thinks back to you.
You are like the sail
That no longer do I see.
Seems that a waft of wind
Has taken you from me.
Was it not so long ago
We sat upon this shore?
Words whisper of tomorrow.
We'd be one forever more.
How we laughed and giggled,
Waves washed between our toes
Words of I love you
From our lips so easily flowed.
Our bodies so entangled
On the blanket we did share.
Made love under moonbeams
As waves threw mist up in the air.
That was forty years ago
We made love upon this shore.
Still have that blanket
I will keep for ever more.
You are no longer with me
The tide has taken you away.
But in my mind and heart
There you will never stray.
So come sit here beside me
Whisper I love you in my ear.
Hold me close and kiss me
And wash away my tears.

Nearly six years ago you came into my life,
just as my treasure chest was running out of light.
You accepted me while I was at my lowest,
Gave me a bed to lay in and our love began to flourish.
Through bumpy roads we have gone yet held on with a stronger bond,
Together we shall tackle these hurdles for our love shall not be overrun.
Never should you worry about me venturing to find another,
WE were meant to be for you are my future Wife, Best friend, and my Lover.
Without you there would be no me,
God forbid I lose you for my life would be incomplete.
My soul always yearns for your Kisses, Love and tender Embrace,
Let's make our Love glow even brighter for God himself would need to wear shades.
My heart lays in you hands which is secured by the strongest locket,
You are the sole holder of the key that is needed to unlock it.
You rescued me while I was crumbling and found it hard to breathe,
I am grateful to have you forever I shall be Faithful to thee. ©

There are people who are simply dazzling
What they do to you, you can't explain.
With just a single instant you can know;
Know that I can live with this person and all their troubles.
That kind of person you know I can marry.
That kind of person whose picture you can zoom into from all angles.
That kind of a person whom when you think of, inspires your whole day.
That kind of a person whose smile you would want to see each morning.
How much I wish she knew.
She is that kind of person I want write my only vows for.
That kind of person I want to be my first and my last.
That kind person I want to laugh, cry, jubilate and spend every day with.
She is that kind of person I dig.
Her presence creates an aura that mesmerizes my heart, and furnishes my soul
In her presence my heart is buoyant, in a serene atmosphere, which she only can create.
She is that kind of person.
I hope, I am that kind of a person that makes her blush,
That kind of person that makes butterflies rejoice in her belly.
I want to be that kind of person.
I want to marry you

To love another more than life itself...
Is sweet bereavement...Sealed within
loves kiss...
...A love so deep...fathomed in oceans...
only truth can find...
A myth uncovered - discovered over time...
...To relish in this beauty...way beyond compare...
...To look into the eyes of an angel...
...Mornings first light...
...We feel with hearts despair...
...For we nurture this...
...This love we believe has found its way here...
...We cherish everyday...
...this love beyond compare...
...Immortal wish bestow...
....For we love in tomorrows tomorrow...
...This life this love we celebrate...
these two souls love has found...
...this life - this love...
...this love itself creates...

If I were to have my way; the welcome of-those
bygone days, then I'd be sure they would know.
My hopes the fairest dreams of all; were all I wanted to
share - the ones held so dear that I couldn't let go of for
anyone - but them.
As plane rides come to mind jet setting daily qualms God's
buried grace the quiet suicides, was all that came of those-days,
and because I have come to find, parachutes are an option-not
only for those that are living... but are expressly offered for the
worn walking alone and weary within themselves already reeling
from their regrets -
and so it is I believe God being the catalyst for my life, a show-
of His greater eminence and Sovereignty - mercy -
because I too exist myself in a free fall over this valley of the-
dead - and-so it has become for me my own personal, peculiar-
quirk of twisted providence, the evidence of my fate that all
circles are not the same or brand entirely, nor an entity-
within themselves... completely whole - because my-
experience has shown that they too, given
the-proper-vexing, like me -
can be broken... .

receiver of a program sent to her inside her snail mail marked as a FIXIT
program disc the entire story is now centered around what comes next let's
watch what happens…
Charlax the Narrator: June reached into the envelope slowly and opened the disc
cover reluctantly she was wondering now just where it had come from it was
compelling her to use it she could feel its message somewhere near her left toe
and the eye her left eye was twitching like a nervous wrecked her whole face was
letting go she had to she had to over and over like a ROBOT compulsion she
HAD to place the disc in the BOSSES computor NOW.
June: something is almost forcing me to use this new hardware it's an alien tech
rippoff of an image of the MOON it makes me want to dress up and wear my
cape out.
Charlax the Narrator: The Bosses Computor is slowly being eaten up by the disc
all the contacts on the every list are gone the moral of the CharlaXFabel number

meant to be edited by ewe. The computor is now gone the disc dropped to the
floor lets go back and see what happens now…
BOSS: walking in to his office to check on his computor and June Smithster: well
that is not funny did the android charlock pick up my computor for cleaning
Charlax the Narrator: but there is only silence from the corner of the room where
June is laying down curled up in a ball of Supergirl costume her cape lay furled
around her like a hobo blanket cover…

I will always recall the day
my mom died.
She was in recovery for
congestive heart surgery.
The work itself had gone well
but brought on massive clots
to the lungs.
I was an hour and a half away
and when I arrived,
Mom was talking to the doctor.
He had tears in his eyes,
apologizing for getting hopes up
where there was no hope now.
She looked him straight in the eye
and told him that she didn't want to die.
But, if the Lord was ready
the doctor didn't need to cry.
"I know you did everything in your power
to make me well", she said. "So don't you feel bad,
don't apologize for trying to help me.
God is the one to have the final say.
I will resist going until my absolutely final breath.
Because, I think that is what he expects of me.
When I know it's time I will be with him."
The doctor left, I don't know if he felt better.
Probably not. He had promised her five more years.
I stayed and talked to mom for a while,
before my brother came back in.
"Now Bunky, you know your brothers
are not as strong as you.
You will have to help them through this.
That is what I know you will do."
I said "yes Momma,"
no longer fighting the wetness profusely rolling down my cheeks.
"Where's Carolyn" she said of my wife.
"I called her and she is on the way shortly.
She will get here as soon as she can."
My brother came back in
and I went out to the doctor again.
He said her lungs were completely clogged
and she would slowly suffocate.
But, it would be painless because she could breathe.
She just couldn't process the air.
She would simply go to sleep.
And that is the way the next four hours went,
with Mom going little by little.
She napped,
and woke up once in a while
to ask about my younger brother
and his wife and my wife.
Telling all how much she loved them.
She slept a little longer each
time she closed her eyes
and finally the only one not
there was my wife.
We thought a couple of times she had passed.
But the nurse said she just wouldn't give up.
She sunk so low they couldn't find a pulse
or read blood pressure.
I don't remember how they knew she was not gone.
Finally just before my wife
came in they actually didn't know
if she was still alive.
My wife came in and Mom spoke.
"Carolyn, Carolyn", very weakly and
they talked softly for a while and Mom died.
She had held on beyond a readable pulse.
Beyond blood pressure.
To tell my wife good bye.

Her clothes soaks in a sea of sweat,
her skin wet, brown and muddy,
as though floating in a Lake with debris.
Notorious in her screams
and dangerous in her gaze
Making her the worst villain of the neighborhood
been greatly antagonistic to Manhood
as agony and frustration befell her,
comparative to experiencing a difficult means of Livelihood.
Medication may be an immediate remedy
but will not stop her hatred towards the brotherhood.
In difficulty, she curses and swears,
her sexuality, been the target and victim.
Increase severity of her present situation,
makes her casualty to moral decadence
and deterring her ability to be sane.
Her thinking faculty, substituted with rage,
and naughty questions flooding her mind
like the spring as she wondered
why Humanity is propagated through such pain
The Balloon of Life gone so flaccid,
her pains, like the infiltrating effect of an Acid.
Just one last push to proceed,
knowing fully well, she will succeed
and finally, the glorious result of a seed.
She has been in a Barren Land so dry,
the feeling of darkness, she is ready to fry
the transition to light, she gives a try
which becomes accomplished with a Newborn's cry.

Don't Stop, A Letter To My Wife
Dear Barbara
I have attempted to shield you from uncaring and mean spirited people, thinking that I was helping you.
I have tried to coral and box you in, caution and counsel you, thinking that I was helping you.
I have often sought to change you, delay you, detour you, thinking that I was helping you.
I have since discovered that when I step aside, just letting you be you, I am helping you.
You give so unselfishly to me, our children, and their children. You must not stop.
You continue to prepare those festive meals, unmatched and memorable. Don't stop.
I frequently protest saying, "Cook less"; but you never cease to give your best.
You make great sacrifices for your family, often going without. Don't stop.
The way you reach out to people, giving them all you've got. Don't stop.
The confidence you build, the love you give, and the prayers you pray. Don't stop.
The dear ones you befriend, when their welcome elsewhere has worn thin. Don't stop.
That same smile that captured me 45 years ago, that you continue to give to others; Don't stop.
No doubt, from time to time, I'll continually do things, thinking I'm helping you. If you think I'm out of line, please pay me no mind, and simply continue to be all God intended for you to be.

Holloway pessimistic over Coleman
Blackpool boss Ian Holloway admits he is unlikely to be able to bring Seamus Coleman back to the club.
Everton defender Coleman, 21, impressed during a loan spell at Bloomfield Road at the end of last season as the Seasiders won promotion to the Premier League. He has featured regularly in pre-season friendlies for the Merseysiders since then and Holloway feels it will be difficult to convince Everton boss David Moyes to part with Coleman again.
"He is playing so well that David Moyes won't want to let him go," Holloway told the Blackpool Gazette. "I've asked him, I've left messages, I've spoken to Moyesy's brother (agent Kenny), so I'm trying all I can.
"However, I think the honest answer is probably no, but I've got other targets I'm waiting on as well."
Meanwhile, Blackpool are reported to have had a bid rejected by Leicester for striker DJ Campbell, another player who enjoyed a successful loan stint with the Tangerines last term.
However, Holloway may yet have more luck in his efforts to sign Swansea defender Angel Rangel.
Rangel was the subject of a failed bid from Blackpool last week, but Swans coach Alan Curtis expects the 27-year-old to leave the Welsh side before the end of the transfer window.
"I think the club are trying to persuade Angel and trying to open talks over a new contract," Curtis told the BBC, "but obviously the lure of playing in the Premier League is something he is probably going to find very difficult to turn down."
He added: "It looks likely that he may well move on, but that might not be for a couple of weeks yet. The (transfer) deadline is not until the end of August and the shame is he's such a good player for us."

For Joshua Dread, middle school is proving to be, well, awkward. Not only do bullies pick on him, but do you see those supervillains over there trying to flood the world? The ones that everyone, including his best friend, Milton, are rooting for Captain Justice to take down? They're the Dread Duo, and they just happen to be his parents. As if trying to hide his identity wasn't hard enough, Joshua has started leaving a trail of exploding pencils and scorched handprints in his wake, and only Sophie, the new girl in town with a mysterious past, seems unsurprised.
When a violent attack at the Vile Fair makes it clear someone is abducting supervillains, and that his parents may very well be next, Joshua must enlist both Sophie and Milton's help to save them. Well-written, fast-paced, and remarkably funny, Joshua Dread is the first in a series that will appeal far beyond its target audience.

Please help me, feeling so down(55 Posts)
Right, will try not to make this too long.
I had a c section with my dd almost 13 years ago. I had an extreme fear of natural birth which wasn't helped by some appaling and humiliating treatment in my pregnancy. After I broke down and had a panic attack during an examination at 31 weeks, I was finally seen by a consultant who agreed to a section, which was wonderful, no probs.
I have had such a fear that I have waited all these years to try again. Panic that has gripped me in the night for years. Am now 11 weeks.
I have hired a private midwife, have seen her once, she know my fears, has said she'd help me re a repeat section but at the moment she's proving to be as useless as a chocolate teapot really, already thinking that i've chucked 3k down the drain, but I can't be at the mercy of a hospital midwife team again.
She is now saying that the 3 hospitals she contacted will push me for a VBAC and will probably not agree to a second section on my request.
I am thinking of terminating this pregnancy, I cannot have a natrual birth, I don't know what to do.
Please go and talk to your GP about this. Ditch the private midwife, ask for your money back. If you dont get it take her to small claims court once this mess is sorted.
Your mental health and that of your baby is much more important than 3k.
Get referred to the hospital consultant and perinatal mental health team. As you've had a previous cs I think that makes it massively easier tbh.
The thing is, my GP wanted to refer me straight to a consultant at the hospital. She just told me to get the name of one.
This midwife said she spoke to the hospital, and they want me to be referred to the midwives first.
Am seeing GP soon, I hate all this stress.
Is it just me or is the midwife not giving you the full story? No test is a 'must' although some are indeed recommended. E.g. we have a family history of diabetes although my own sugar count is quite low, and so I had the GTT. Now, as for the ELCS, I am wondering if there are two things happening a) they are fobbing your midwife of because they dont want to discuss with her and will be far more reasonable when YOU speak to them face to face b) that she isn't pushing for the ELCS as strongly as she makes it out to be? Yes, London hospitals are trying to bring CS rates down, but you need to be able to speak to a consultant face to face to discuss this.
I think I don't trust her already.
I have only met her once for booking, and since have had contact via phone and email. To be honest, her emails are long and rambling, full of mistakes and appalling grammar... doesn't sit right with me.
I am well informed on all the tests. I did lots of research in first pregnancy, and when I was planning this one. On top of that, I studied healthcare, so am far from uninformed.
All I want to do is speak to a consultant, not faff about with midwives, who IME, push natural birth.
So do that. Can you self refer?
Ask your GP to find out who she should refer you direct to, she can phone the hospital and ask.
No, i can't self refer to a consultant.
When I spoke to my GP, she said just give me a consultants name and I will refer you, but, I have been told that even though I have this private midwife, I have to get booked into a hospital by the hospital midwives, who will then book me to see a consultant.
I don't understand why this is the case. I am having all scans elsewhere (privately). I am having all appointments with the (useless at mo) private midwife.
I don't understand why I can't be referred to a consultant? I was made to wait so long the first time round for a decision on CS, it was hell, i can't go through that again.
I agree that you should talk to your GP. You don't have any faith in that private midwife. Can you get some of your money back from her. It just seems pointless if she seems to be making things worse rather than trying to reassure you which should be her job.
Cross post. Sorry.
Iwanticecream I have no experience in c-sections or this area but I totally understand your rationale and decision - at the end of the day whats most important for you and your baby is that your pregnancy and birth is stressfree.
Having said that, why don't you also look into some form of therapy - my stepdad does CBT and thinks its very useful to people with fears. I am not saying this to convince you into a VBAC in anyway and think that at this stage of your pregnancy you don't need any pressure about into choosing one but it could be worth trying to alleviate some of your fears in another way too IYSWIM? It might make you feel less stressed?
to be clear, my stepdad practices CBT as a form of therapy and has done the training so he has experience (not from having CBT for himself)
Your midwife seems to have set herself up as a gatekeeper so you can't access advice and services without going through her.
I am fairly sure you can get a consultant privately without going through the midwife team, or at least do it all on the same day.
I agree with going back to GP getting GP to talk you through who to have as consultant (or do some research before hand) and setting up an appointment/referral.
Unfortunately, I think you have to have it out with the midwife so you can ditch her and get some money back. That might be better done after you've had a consultant appointment on the basis that if the consultant confirms the midwife is talking nonsense you've got a stronger basis for complaint.
The trouble is, I have tried do research on the consultants at the hospital (like I said, GP just said give her a name) but it's like banging my head against a brick wall. I keep getting told the midwife team will refer me.
I know I can see one privately - I wish I could afford it! My GP is not in my area so has no links to the hospital, she usually deals with women wanting private referrals.
How can I get to see a consultant myself?
You cannot usually just see a consultant without going through some form of gatekeeper. If your GP can't help (but I am honestly surprised that she cant just phone and find out who usually specialises in women with similar issues at your chosen hospital) then you have to go through NHS antenatal appointment with a midwife, who will then refer you on for a consultant appointment.
There is no way to see a consultant on the NHS without having your 'booking' appointment, you would automatically be allocated consultant led care though and in the absence of risk factors other than prev cs, the 'next available' appointment, or even as you fear one at 36weeks. However, if you were able to state your level of anxiety/ mental health problems clearly, at my trust you would receive a swift referral to the specialist mental health mw who would be an excellent advocate ime. I struggle to understand how an indie mw would liaise with an NHS consultant but that may be a London thing? Good luck.
Ah that makes sense. Basically you will see the midwife who will then refer you to a consultant. Once the midwife has seen you, you will be able to make a booking with the consultant's team. You can't see the consultant directly. Sorry, but I think if you do go for the booking in appointment and get to see the consultant, your mind will be at rest.
And if you don't trust the midwife, then you don't. Doesn't matter what she does or says. It is her job to make you comfortable and she isn't doing that.
Ok. There are lots of people here on mn who want to and will help you so you are not alone. I think that all the anxieties you have about hospital/VB/midwives/lack of control/what to do are all getting jumbled up and causing increased stress and pressure. I was in a similar situation to you in that I wanted an NHS CS in London as a 2nd birth (1st was traumatic VB). I got one.
Firstly, you do not need to consider termination. You WILL get a CS and we will help you take the steps to access the right help and support to get one.
Secondly, I think that the mixing of private and NHS care is causing a muddle about who will be responsible for what. It's fine to do it this way I think but we need to work out who is responsible for what and where you need to be when. Am I right in thinking all your antenatal care is supposedly to be provided privately but the birth NHS? Or will you have a private delivery at an NHS hospital? If you are ultimately giving birth under NHS care you'll still need to be booked in. I'm not sure how the private info transfers across but they would tell you that at the booking in appointment.
Thirdly, I want to reassure you that NHS midwives does not automatically mean "bad" (although I appreciate you may have had that experience before). It was my booking in midwife who suggested consultant referral, another one who accelerated my second opinion when I was struggling to function after the 1st consultant refused me. I was never discouraged from my CS choice by any midwives.
Fourthly, it sounds like your independent midwife is causing you increased anxiety by being unclear, incorrect and potentially pushing her own agenda of VBAC. I'd seriously consider getting rid of her and demanding a refund for the services she hasn't yet rendered. You've listed enough errors and examples on unprofessionalism to report to the RCM if she gets difficult in this situation.
I would book in with the NHS midwives - they will get you the consultant referral. You should also request support from the perinatal mental health team to reduce your anxiety. They will not try to persuade you to vb, they will work on getting you to feel calmer and back in control (I have done this myself). This does not mean you can't revert to private midwife support but I think you need to get in the system for the consultant appointment.
Once you have the consultant appointment you can run through strategies about what to say and do to ensure the CS. Although some of us have been refused CS at 1st appointment I do not know of a single example of anyone made to VB when they wanted a CS. And I have read A LOT of ELCS threads on mn! They all got the CS request granted eventually. You will too.
Keep talking on here, keep sharing the issues. Apologies that this is so long.
Thank you. Thanks to everyone on this thread.
Yes, I will be having my own private care - private midwife, private GP and scans but having the birth on the NHS. This due to the horrendous experience I had the first time round.
I booked the private midwife as I wanted continuity of care. The last time I never saw the same midwife twice and was barked at by a succession of rude and aggressive midwives and subjected to a forced internal. She will also come after the birth instead of community midwives - I am not registered with an NHS GP and never will be, my new baby will see the same private ped as my DD has seen since birth, no HVs etc.
All I want is to be able to get to see a consultant asap.
I must admit I'm slightly confused, I could ring up a hospital and find out the name of a consultant so why cant a private gp?
Or I could find out the name, ring his secretary and book a private appointment myself. That way surely you would save money on gp appointment and just having one private consultation to talk this through wouldnt be that expensive.
Personally I think its easier and cheaper to stick with nhs but pick and choose who you will see and where you should go. I think the issue is actually about feeling in control rather than nhs/ private.
If you are going to gavd birth on nhs then you are going to have to have booking appointment anyway I imagine.
Yes, and that's fine, I understand I will need a booking appointment and have my blood group taken there so they have my blood on site. I'm ok with that one midwife appointment, all the rest will take place in my home or at my workplace with my private midwife (IF i keep her on, an undecided).
I don't understand why my GP can't also contact a consultant, so she can voice my concerns and try to get me to see someone sooner.
If you're having an NHS birth, you will need a referral to an NHS consultant. A private midwife has no jurisdiction in the NHS & the NHS consultants will not discuss your case with her, as they have had no referral & won't have any medical information about you - there's also confidentiality/consent issues.
I guess you have 2 options: your GP could refer you or you can book in with an NHS midwife.
I'm pretty sure your anxieties will be recognised & appropriate support put in place for you.
Good luck - I really hope you can get something sorted - and hopefully start to enjoy your pregnancy.
Why not ring your gp and ask her why not? presumably private gps are much like vets in terms of how easy they are to contact/ arrange appointments with?
That seemed like an odd response but the vet rang me back within an hour this morning! !!
Your GP can write to your consultant and request that they care for you, I have seen such letters occasionally, but they just seem to be popped in your notes to guide referral when allocating a consultant at the booking appointment. The timing if the process doesn't change I don't think.
lotsofcheese - I know that and so does she, she will only be able to come to appointments as an advocate for me. She just rang around some hospitals to see where the ground lay with them. Which I actually have a massive problem with, I am capable of doing that myself, she didn't even ask, just did it and then informed me I would be billed for extra work
My bones with her is that I feel she has her own agenda in terms of VBAC.

"Could It Really Be Possible to Quickly Transform the
Self-Absorbed Nag You Love
into a Sex-Crazed Cheerleader?
Who Not Only Worships the Ground You Walk On and
Tells All Her Friends How Much of an Animal You are In the Bedroom, She Greets You With A Huge Smile
Everytime You Walk in the Door!"
FORTUNATELY, the answer is YES!
The simple to use insider secrets of "Her Love Bucket"
reveal the ninja tactics required to make her putty in your hands
so you BOTH love what you do for each other.
From: Sherrie Rose
RE: Your Sex and Love Life
Dear Friend,
If you are a man who's never heard of her "love bucket" then you may be at a loss with the most important woman in your life.
If you are in love with a woman, but fear your relationship may be damaged due to some sort of breakdown and you are not quite sure what it is - yet you deserve total (and unquestionable) power to regain your rightful position – then this is the most important message you will ever read.
My name is Sherrie Rose…and in just a moment, I will show you how to smoothly force your relationship to become the "perfect" romance of your fantasy faster than you ever dreamed. The insider secrets of "Her Love Bucket" reveal the required knowledge to put you in the (benevolent) power position...
…just as I have done for hundreds of other well-deserving men.
And I will do the same for you.
Nasty Frustrating Symptoms Of An
Unbelievably Devastating Problem
…that, if not dealt with properly, will – slowly but surely - strip your love away from you and leave you out in the cold.
Recently, three friends, married and in serious relationships, told me their wife wanted a divorce or their girlfriend left them - AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHY!!! They never took me up on my offer to get the secrets of her "love bucket." They are feeling heartbreak and looking at endless alimony. Sad. Don't let it happen to you! You don't want to be that husband or that boyfriend
But, I absolutely refuse to let that happen to you as I've seen it happen to more high-quality men than I personally like to admit.
It's that important.
The Story: Most men and, in particular, busy entrepreneurial and career-oriented men,
typically do not take the time to consistently "fill her love bucket" when dating long-term, once married,
or in a steady relationship.
The Point: You increase the probability of success in your relationships with women
whenever you actively gain knowledge about the priority desires of "her love bucket."
And, by filling her rings of desire, it comes back to you to increase your masculine potential and your male virility. You become a MASTERMAN. (A Masterman exudes mastery and integrity because he has self-discipline, confidence, clarity of purpose on a daily basis, and strategic direction of his life. Women are extremely attracted to a masterman (think Rockstar), young boys clamor to be lead by a masterman, and peers seek the counsel of a masterman.)
The Benefit: You are NOT forced to submit to the pressures of an overly demanding woman
in dating or in your relationship. She gets what she wants. You get what you want.
The Resource: The Accelerator Class in THE "MAN CLASS" SERIES shows men the
unique system revealed in the 7 Ways to Fill Her Love Bucket so you will never have to suffer relationship pain again.
What is "Her Love Bucket"?
Her Love Bucket is an analogy for a vessel that holds a woman's desires.
Her desires are pictorially represented by the color-coded 7 rings that encircle her love bucket.
Her love bucket can be empty but it never overflows; it expands to receive more love.
She will take every inch of your love …
Having a sensual lover who knows the techniques to please and provide multiple orgasms (big smile!) involves more than physical desires.
I've applied logic and created The Love System to take the confusion out of a woman's desires so men can use
the clear color-coded system with graphs, charts, and diagrams to "crack the code" of the female
mind to give you the inside track to win with her...
By popular demand, at a marketing conference, several businessmen insisted that I make
public my logical system for understanding women's desires
(these men said guys need all the help they can get!).
I had no intention to do this, or write a book, or develop a course as I am not a psychiatrist,
psychologist, or therapist, but the guys would not take no for an answer.
My business background has forced me to provide data, specs and information in a logical format.
This information is my personal philosophy about what I wanted as a woman. I'm sharing it with you.
I'm a systems thinker and I've worked primarily with men throughout my career.
I'm also a woman who was married with two kids and divorced.
Slow to love and feeling the pain of heartbreak, I experienced immense gender compassion for men. Cut the confusion and get on the fast track to win now!
And, I'm here to show you how to obtain total control of your relationship once and for all.
Here's the bottom line: If you've got the guts, you can totally revolutionize yourself, your relationship, and - most importantly - your woman into everything you've intimately desired and change your life forever…
Starting today.
Finally…Simple Step-by-Step Solution That
Works On Every Woman, Every Time!
How To Satisfy A Woman - How to Satisfy Your Wife ...
Look, as I woman, I am extremely logical in everything I do.
Why should that matter to you?
Because, I'm a girl who thinks like a guy. That means, I have the unique ability to understand the emotions of a woman AND break them down logically – with child-like simplicity and pragmatic detail - so that you can bridge the gap between you and your woman…
…eradicate all barriers from your relationship for good…
…and open up the most open (and honest) means of communication humanly possible, so that you can:
Experience more (and 10-times) hotter sex than you've ever had with her before
Eliminate nagging from your life practically forever
Become her hero whom she practically worships, almost overnight!
The great news is that this is now easier (and safer) than ever before in romantic history.
I will teach you to do this, just as I have done for hundreds of men in my life, for you.
And all it takes, is learning the insider-secrets of a practical (and hyper-scientific) approach to handling your
relationship and becoming the master of your domain. I call this approach "Filling Her Love Bucket."

Power Position which is the evolutionary correct position for the human male

the woman in your life to get her to WANT to do what YOU want her to do

The Chairman in your relationship, these kind of women in all parts of your life will admire you
so be careful that you dont create too much jealousy youll learn how to control jealousy, too!)
What single effect the perfect handbag, purse, or pocketbook has on your sex life
(Hey guys, have you ever been dragged to the mall by your girlfriend or wife and looked on in utter
amazement as she found the perfect handbag?)
What shoes really mean to women and your contentment (Do you see the sheer delight on her face
after she found that perfect pair of pumps to match the handbag? She already has 75 pairs in her closet
that to you look exactly the same, maybe the heel height is different, so what can possibly make this bag
and pair of shoes so extra-special?)
And why do women want that many shoes, anyway? (There really is a biological factor that you can
make work for you; even it if does mean you take out the wallet it will help your sex life)
Why it is important for her to believe that a pair of shoes really can make her caves look shapely
and her legs longer? If you hear her mention Manola Blahnik, youd better get a second job.
Even Carrie Bradshaw (played by actress Sarah Jessica Parker) of Sex And The City fame who spends
her whole paycheck on Manola Blaniks only has two feet, right?
And while the subject, why do women always seem to go to the ladies room together?
Is it a strategy session, do they need moral support or do they really help each with their business?
Seriously, whats up? The Man Class series explains these previously unanswered questions so you do not have to wonder forever
The Man Class series reveals details and a complete step-by-step system that will get you
the results you want with your wife or girlfriend so you can win and be her hero.
Plus much, MUCH MORE!
You have obviously figured out by now that by knowing how to tap into the energy of your wife or girlfriend,
she'll become more satisfied (and stop nagging) and you can increase your greater potential as a man and
get on with making money, being successful, doing more and sharing more with your lover and the world around you.
I need to ask you something of massive importance that directly affects the rest of your love life.
Just promise to answer with brutal honesty, here - because if you have ever felt even the slightest sliver of pain from a potential "lost love" - then you already know that the stakes are HUGE.
Imagine your woman (or the woman you lost) right now…
If you have so much as thought about answering "Yes" to ANY of these questions, then it is absolutely critical that you take this course.

Protect your skin all summer long
GRAND FORKS — As summer heats up, people are flocking to parks and lakes, playgrounds and pools to enjoy the great outdoors.
"Sun is the biggest ager," Suda said. "A tan is sun damage.
"Be aware that — depending on your skin type especially — you should avoid exposure to the sun when it's the strongest: from 10 (a.m.) to 2 (p.m.)," she said. "If you go out and your skin is not protected, you're setting your skin up for problems down the line."
Fair-skinned people or anyone with red hair should be particularly careful, she said.
"The more sunburns you have, the greater your chances are for getting skin cancer."
A person's risk for melanoma — the most serious form of skin cancer — doubles if he or she has had five or more sunburns, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.
One blistering sunburn in childhood or adolescence more than doubles a person's chances of developing melanoma later in life.
Getting a sunburn is fairly common, the foundation reported. In a recent survey, it found that 42 percent of people polled get a sunburn at least once a year.
When you're at the beach on a clear summer day, bear in mind that the water and sand reflect the sun's UV rays, allowing them to hit your skin and eyes twice, Suda said. Sand reflects an extra 15 percent of UV light, and water up to 10 percent.
"You don't have to be baking in the sun to enjoy the summer," she said. "Sit in the shade."
When choosing a sunscreen product, "look for one that's 'broad spectrum,' with an SPF (sun protection factor) of 15 or higher," Suda said. "The higher the better.
"Apply it 15 to 30 minutes before you go out, and reapply it every two to three hours."
Common skin cancers
Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the country, according to the foundation. Nearly 3.7 million skin cancers are diagnosed in the U.S. annually, and the vast majority of them are caused by solar UV radiation (UVR), according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.
The two most common non-melanoma skin cancers, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, are caused by accumulation of sun exposure over many years, Suda said.
"We have farmers (as patients) who say 'but I'm not in the sun much anymore.' That doesn't matter, because (skin cancer results from) the accumulation of sun exposure over years."
The most common locations for these cancers are the face, ears and hands, the foundation reports. But they can appear in an area of the body that is not exposed to the sun.
Melanoma, on the other hand, is believed to be the result of brief, intense exposure — a blistering sunburn — rather than years of tanning, Suda said. Other risk factors include family history, skin type and having a large number of sizable moles on the body.
Melanoma can appear on any area of the body, regardless of whether or not a sunburn occurred in that location.
Also, "melanoma can come from no sun exposure," she said. "It can pop up anywhere."
Clothing as protection
Clothing is our first line of defense against the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays and protects the skin by absorbing or blocking much of this radiation, Suda said. The more skin you cover, the better.
Dark or bright colors, like red or black, absorb more UV rays than white or pastel shades, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation. The more intense the hue, the better the UV defense.
The foundation also recommends:
— Shirts with a high collar give added protection for the back of the neck.
— Check for clothing tags that indicate the level of sun protection with an Ultraviolet Protection Factor number. A shirt with a UPF of 50, for example, allows just 1/50th of the sun's UV radiation to reach the skin. The higher the UPF, the greater the protection.
— Increase your clothes' UPF by washing a laundry additive like SunGuard's RIT into them. A laundry additive can raise the UPF of an everyday white cotton T-shirt from a UPF of about 5 to 30.
— Consider wearing scarves and wraps to shield the neck, upper chest and shoulder area.
— Suda and her colleagues at Truyu recommend a line of clothing and hats called Coolibar — made from materials that provide added skin protection, which is endorsed by the American College of Dermatology, she said.
Don't forget hat, sunglasses
Hats are the head's first line of defense, Suda said. They provide protection to the scalp, where it's difficult to apply sunscreen, and areas where people forget to apply sunscreen such as the top of the ears and back of neck.
Baseball caps don't cut it, she said. "The hat needs to be broad-brimmed to cover the ears, face and neck."
Hats are especially important for men who have thinning hair and are at risk for developing skin cancer on the top of their heads, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.
The face and neck receive the most sun exposure and are particularly susceptible to basal and squamous cell carcinoma.
People with melanomas of the head and neck are almost twice as likely to die from the disease as patients with melanomas on other parts of the body, the foundation reports.
Sunglasses are also essential, according to Suda. "Choose a pair that wraps completely around the face and eyes."
Watch for labeling that verifies the glasses block 99 to 100 percent of all UV radiation.
Over time, solar UVR can cause or contribute to conditions ranging from cataract and macular degeneration to ocular melanomas and other skin cancers, the foundation said. Five to 10 percent of all skin cancers arise on the eyelids.
Any burn draws fluid to the skin surface and away from the rest of the body, the foundation states. In case of sunburn, drink extra water, juice and sports drinks for a couple of days and watch for signs of dehydration, such as dry mouth, thirst, reduced urination, headache, dizziness and sleepiness.
Take some ibuprofen, such as Advil, as soon as you see signs of sunburn and keep it up for the next 48 hours, the foundation recommends. It reduces swelling and redness that is going to occur and may prevent some long-term skin damage.
Acetaminophen, such as Tylenol, will treat the pain, but does not have the same anti-inflammatory effect.
After a cool shower or bath, slather on moisturizing lotion, the foundation states.
"A cool compress can help too," Suda said.
