All I Have to Give
by Greg Davis

All I have to give you
is me.
And for the first time
That seems to be enough.

I have carried the weight
of long term debt,
From being the person
I never was or could ever be.

I have sold myself
far too cheap,
To those who thought me a bargain,
requiring such small investments from them.

I have redecorated to other's taste,
Painted over who I am,
In the hope of attracting
What I found I never wanted.

But you have let me come
Unadorned, without lies
To you or myself,
With no debts to collect
Or IOUs of the heart
That I could never repay.

So I am free
To be the man I am,
And to let you see me
Naked in the day. 

All I have to give is me
You have never asked for else.
So I give you all you ask,
And in such giving,
Find myself becoming more.

Want a real solution for your aching back?

     Hi! I'm John Rebrovick, president of SouthStar Supply Company. I am here to tell you that Thermoskin® wraps really work. I know. I don't just sell them. Periodically my back acts up. What. A. Pain. Literally. The first thing I do is hobble over to the drawer for my back wrap.

     For a wrap, its especially comfortable because of the patented Trioxon® lining which is soft, yet wicks perspiration away from the skin. The wrap provides mild insulation to the lower back, increasing blood flow and therefore reducing pain and speeding recuperation. Sewn-in elastic straps and flexible metal stays provide support. All you have to do is wrap it around you to a snug fit with the hook & loop fasteners and in minutes you'll be feeling better. Click the "Order Now" link below for a guide to sizing; we've got 'em for you little people in extra small all the way up to the Big Bubba xx-large size. And oh yes, back wrap holds up well in the wash. (That's not my back in the picture, by the way, but could have been when I was young and skinny...)

     Only $54.55 plus shipping from us Bubbas at SouthStar Supply Company!
