Faithful Dimoga

There lived a man named Magezera in the Province of Gitarama Rwanda whose wife had died. This man was left with a daughter of 2 years who he loved so dearly to his heart. The man also had a dog, a faithful German shepherd, who was his best friend in that lonely village. Every-day Magezera would play with his dog and teach him tricks. The man called the dog Dimoga meaning a faithful dog. Dimoga would watch Kathrine for Magezera at nap time and protect the house from bad men everywhere. All three lived in that house alone. Besides Kathrine Dimoga was the only thing Magezera so loved.

One summer day there was a famine in Gitarama and Magezera decided to spend his last money to buy some food for his daughter Kathrine. He learned of a nearby village about thirty-three kilometres away from Gitarama where it was rumoured abundance of milk, bread, corn, fruits and beans. He decided to go to Kayumbu at once. Before he went he ordered Dimoga to watch the house. He prepared the Friday afternoon.And so Magezera left early Saturday morning with a carton wagon and two horses for Kayumbu.

However while he was gone something terrible happened. Bad animals came to visit the home. The wolves surrounded the shed as they heard the baby crying, crying, crying aloud inside.  Dimoga prepared himself for a fight. By this time it was late in the evening and Magezera was on his way home. Suddenly seven wolves attacked Dimoga. It was a violent struggle. Dimoga managed to kill three of the wolves but was badly injured. He ran to Kathrine and sat gently on top leaving space for her to breathe.

By now it was early Sunday, Magezera was entering the small village when he heard some noise! He said, “that sounds like Dimoga”, and “that sounds like wolves”. He jumped of his wagon, loaded his riffled gun and raced speedily towards his village home. As he neared the shed, he shot two riffles killing one wolf and chasing the rest away. His heart beat frantically for worry! His eyes tense and his muscles trembled as he entered the house. He shouted Kathrine, Kathrine, Kathrine! On top of his voice. Right there he was met by a trail of blood he followed all the way to the crib. He cocked his gun when he saw a dark creature sitting on top of a crying object with blood on its teeth breathing hard. In anger he fired two shots killing the creature instantly with a sound he long remembered. He turned on the light, his baby was alive! But Dimoga was dead from the bullets of a riffle.

The voices I hear.

What do I make of this ordeal? Am I loosing my mind? I silently conceal these thoughts. Now I reveal.
Are voices real in my mind? Or is it just me? Why do I converse with these voices?
 Its not what you think. Most of these voices are good, the ones I hear. Few are not. From far back as I remember few voices I would hear in my head. I never reported or said a thing.

The earliest experience with voices was a dream I had one time as a child. Laying in my bed surrounded by darkness. I heard a voice calling my name. The voice sounded as if increasing in volume every time my name was repeated. I remember hearing, martin, martin, martin, martin! My immediate reaction would be tears and frozen stiffness.

Other experiences were not as severe as this. Except for one particular experience three years ago. I believe I had a conversation with God. For short, I'll say it was a blissful experience. As I was moved by an overwhelming force of emotional energy that caused tears to stream down the surface of my face, I was compelled to respond. I wont go into the details of the conversation, except to say it was unexpected, random and short. I dont understand it- even to this day. It never happened again.

However, before this experience I would 'suffer' emotional attacks both highs and lows at unexpected times. I'll start with the highs. At times least expected I would come to tears for no reason. I would not understand why. It was all strange since the reason for my tears would be, well,- joy. Joy for no apparent reason that would come and go at unpredictable times. There were times before this,I would feel tremendously low emotionally. I would be unresponsive both physically and socially to my surroundings in a kind of lazy manner. It was terrible but not to a suicidal level. But I will admit, I had desires of running away and I really didnt care where!

Over the years Ive been suffering in silence. Ive learned to endure these surge of emotions. I also learned as a result of my probe that I was afforded with remarkable natural abilities of written expression and poetic skill. Currently I have written over 100 poems and over 50 essay format pieces of various styles from features, to short stories, to critiques and analysis from works of art to journal logs. I learned to use this to my advantage and accept what I cannot change. I loose motivation very easily. It is an ongoing struggle, but I know ill be okay. Perhaps I need my work reviewed by other writers editors. I leave most of my pieces at first draft and I am much of a perfectionist so usually im not satisfied and the work sits down and is never published.

I did speak to the voices I hear on few occasions. Though I never wrote most of those conversations. I will say, whenever I sense an 'energy' demanding my attention, the most suitable places for conversation are in quiet places. I live in a very hilly area which affords me peace and quiet. At times when I 'feel' the call- I would retreat on that hill and speak my mind. Its only as I speak my mind I would hear a response. Basically I would express any-thing that is of concern to me like school, my future, my purpose and mostly spiritual things. In response the voice would give advice and secrets. Seven out of ten times tears would be flowing.

I dont want to speculate why I hear the voices I hear. But I knew even from childhood that I was different. My difference was not the result of academic or family superiority since I was very average in school. I come from middle-class humble beginnings and not a luxury life. My parents worked hard so I never lacked. So I learned to count my blessings. I was not a dense or trouble child, but I had attention and learning problems to some degree. I had social anxiety to some degree and was very much quiet to some degree. I was introverted and I did not realize until college. I was also using my left hand while other students used their right. I also did not notice this.

I find that whenever I write or express myself through some artistic outlet, the voices reduce tremendously. When I hold them inside- they can be tormenting to me. For some years now Ive been taking up poetry and essays as an outlet of creativity. The rewards are satisfying. Though inspiration come and go like wind, I cannot give an explanation for the reason I write or the driving force behind my work except I get a sense of accomplishment and pleasure from seeing the fruit of my creation. I do it for my own pleasure and boasting as a kind of ego and showing my superior skill. Im not a show-off but I want others to read my work and relate. I write really for others. I want to entertain and provoke thoughts in the readers. I know when its good and when its bad. The mystery is- I dont understand how I can go from having nothing on paper to formulating something that seems to have appeared from nowhere joining together into a perfect whole.

Its as if I cannot believe my own creation. I become proud of it.Like I said, its an ongoing struggle. There are days I am completely immobilized and stuck, I cant seem to float on water, im struggling for air because im drowning. And there are days when I feel unstoppable and on top of things. Lately Ive been very rebellious and free spirited. Ive not been attending church as often, I pretty much do whatever I want. I can still hear voices of condemnation, but they are dying slowly becoming of no effect. I am really on a different state of perception. But its a lonely state. I prefer to stand alone. Im realizing that church is not really helping me, nothing can save me expect me. For me to be in church when I know I dont want to be there is hypocrisy. Im trying to be real. Its hard. I am looking for the real, Its very hard to find. Im looking for my place- I dont see it. I want to be free. I dont think im a bad boy, i just think im misunderstood.
 The Bible that I use to love to read frequently,  now I read only occasionally. I am more interested in my own thoughts and feelings and I am fast loosing the patience to sift through the word. I dont read as much as I should, but I do alot of thinking and listening. There is great power in listening!

I listen to my heart. That is all I need. This nobody has ever taught me. I believe John 3:16

The World Without Money?

Money can make you love or hate. It can make you fight and compete?What would the world be without money? Let us examine for a second or more the implications of a paperless world. In a system we can all relate lets start by stating the obvious use or need for money.

1. We need money for food.
- imagine going to a supermarket and asking the cashier,your neighbor, Hey Ms. Sue, listen up, a may I borrow three loafs of wheat bread, two sliced turkey, 3 package chicken breasts, tin of baked beans, pack of spaghetti,a bottle of milk, some cereal and canned fruits, please? She would think you're crazy! Stop it.Your trying to get me fired?Stop wasting by time. Next!

2. We need money for living expenses and others
-imagine telling your landlord you dont think you will be able to afford rent for say aa the next year or two. He would probably say, o,sure you can live here free of cost and by the way I'll pay for the light, water, cable and phone-bill as well. Have a good life! No.Worse, if you have a mortgage under NHT- you definitely need that cheddar.Yes. Education may be the key but if you cant afford it, no door will be opened for you. hint. The Doctor wants to help you, you need to help him first. The pastor has a family to feed and manna no longer drops from heaven.

3. We need money for clothes and other comforts
- This one is tricky. We need good durable shoes, good comfortable wearable fabrics, and the rest. By the rest I mean a nice watch is not a crime, for some women jewelery is not a luxury, a nice car will ease the pressure of time and sweat, technology makes life better, amen! For imagine a world without Laptops,cellphones, pagers, calculators, music players (there so many nowadays)appliances and other cool gadgets of communication we use at our discretion. Imagine not having money to buy them. Money is needed for Infrastructures in business, entertainment, recreation, sports and other activity of human interest. Without these infrastructures- goods and services cannot be maintained and organized for convenient access and distribution to the public. For example-without a supermarket to store food, how would we survive a famine without a reserve?

What else do we need money for?

4. We need money to travel and see the world.
- This is a good one. Imagine going to a airport with just a cheap drivers license (it is cheap) and telling the front desk operator
- one trip to Paris please o and make it first class, yes. No! I guarantee you will be escorted first class, but it wont be to the terminal! See even money is big business.

5. Finally, and the most obvious reason
- we use money because everyone else uses money. Economics will tell you the more there is a demand the more there is need for supply. Nearly everything demands money nowadays- even a bottle of water! The more people there are who share an accepted currency, the more that currency is enforced to keep people using it. Make sense?Virtually the entire world uses some sort of currency. If  the majority of the world population would wake up and decide to stop using money altogether, according to this law of economics  the majority will win. People always follow what works and is more convenient. Nobody wants to loose. Hence money is in.


Now imagine if all major farmers across the world decided to go on a strike. We're screwed. How many of us have knowledge, plant our own food, to build our own homes, make our own clothes, and shoes? Are creative people still in town? How much can we do for ourselves?I guess the only safety would be to learn some vital skills for ourselves.

To me money is like magic. I'll tell you why-Its seems to have a captivating charm effect on people. You'll be surprised at what some people will do for a little cake (money). Im no mathematician or economic financial market guru but a little common sense is all I need. Money makes the world spin, we all know that, we should, but the mystery still exsists. For if money makes the world spin, then who makes money spin? That one will take another blog and more. But you already know the answer.

So why do we want money?Because we need all these things.Why do we need them?Because we cant do without them.But to answer the question set from the beginning, Its pretty simple to me. Without money, we would inevitably find a way to eat, live, cover ourselves and make life easier. Thought I dont know how the extremely rich would take this suggestion. Probably not so well. Without money or any other form of exchange we would probably be forced to depend on each other in some way or another.
Maybe thats exactly what we need. Maybe not!

The Introvert and Social Anxiety

Theres nothing wrong with me completely, its just my personality!
For a very long time I never understood myself.
Social anxiety cannot be blamed on merely withdrawal from social settings.
Its more deeper than that.
Some people are more different from others.
My background, my upbringing and my religious persuasions have all impacted who and what I am.
The short of the matter is alienation from social settings within reason is not unusual behavior.

Introverts may find religion, God, nature, pets, drugs, alcohol, food, material things or themselves as  a source of comfort in a painful world.
Some may neglect the institutional settings of society altogether, separating themselves while watching the world deteriorate, and wont feel a thing. Society can make us cold. We have a hard time in the job world as very few professions cater to our need for expression. We dont start well in college. We want to shine our true selves but fear of rejection by societies standards hinders us. So we end up rebelling against church, school and all other organizations we may see as oppressive. We are not bad, we are booed. We wont push, but given the chance we can take over the world because we have powers of mind.
Other introvert may have a dont care attitude simply because they are fed up of the way things are- nobody wants to give them a listening ear. And that is the mistake of extroverts- the neglect of introverts for being unconfident, untalkative or reserved. Given the chance we can blow you away. The truth is- we are outnumbered by extroverts- and we are still trying to fight fair.


It is said that no man is an island and no man stands alone;
While this is true
 that does not exclude the feelings of being different of loneliness and uniqueness that some personalities afford.
The personality type of my discussion is of course Introversion. It is very serious.
Allot of discrimination and misunderstanding exsists toward this temperament even today.

The reason being that not many people in history showed high closeness to this personality type except the greats.
I am telling you right now the life of an introvert is not easy. There are challenges unseen.
There are potentials to reap. However, most introverts never find themselves and are more often stepped over by society, time and time again. This happens because
They are expected subconsciously to conform, to fit-in, to submit, to convert, to partake, to adhere into a world designed primarily for extroversion temperament. For this reason some may hide away from the public live a secluded lifestyle  and become a recluse closing themselves of from people. This is not good.

It reminds me of the Mutants in X-MEN movie. Ever seen that movie? They had to hide because they were considered freaks of nature, they believed society would not accept them as they are (which was true). On the other side,
the evil mutants tried to destroy society because of its hatred toward them. Very interesting analogy.

Introverts can get depressed, lonely, suicidal or insane very easily. This is because of the intense emotional temperatures they can experience when involved in deep thinking and creative activity. Its simple. If introverts do not control the temperature of their emotions by watching the environmental stimulations they receive from other people while balancing their tanks with satisfying activity refreshing their mental batteries they can short and go into a hypo phase, become irritable, angry, violent or even depressed. They have to watch their stimulation because their mind is like a sponge-delicate to their surroundings. Through practice they can build a tolerance level, but only.

Mostly introverts dont see the need for being pleasant all the time. They hate routine and idle chattering. They like things simple and real and cant be bothered with compliance or stupid rules. But because we are introverts we internalize our thoughts- we do this for the benefit of your feelings. We care about you. At the same time we can be affected by fear because of oversensitivity and we generally try to avoid confrontation whether verbal or physical. Some might even run from a fight. But when we reach our limit, we loose all reason. Like the kid who shot up a school just like that killing his classmates- for example.
For us to hurt you would be like hurting ourselves. When an introvert looses his temper, you better know that something is wrong for him/her to be acting this way. And whenever we take drastic measures, its always for a reason. We are just not dramatic.

Their weather scale is unpredictable
merely due to their unique mode of operation.
If they discover in time who they are, like I have, they can tap into the world of
their imagination and creativity and drop bombs with their unique thoughts. They have a creative mind.
For the introvert, its all about the inner world, the imagination. We look at the world with a different eye.
We like to have space. We dont like to be told what to do. We want to do things our way.
At the same time we are deeply in-tuned to the needs of others.
We hold alot inside and we bear much pain. We really have the best of both world.
What do I mean?At times our lack of concern for others could make us  appear evil
and completely selfish if we dont control the affections of our hearts.
In essence we have high potential for good
and unfortunately high potential for Evil.We can destroy the world.

 Because Introverts value the inner world of their imagination by nature, if they do not cater to their need of privacy and expression in some profitable pursuit where they can be themselves- they will wither and die. Its almost like if you dont give a plant water and expect it to grow.
Of course some introverts deny themselves totally to fit into an extrovert world- all to their detriment.
 Its sad some dont even know they are introvert. They find themselves in awkward social settings and wonder why they are not free spirited and enthused as others . They try to avoid the crowd by going directly to the crowd injuring themselves more! They dont know when to pull back and just enjoy their own company. They conform so that people will love them when they dont even love themselves. They treat themselves so bad and they dont even know it.

But im here to say that being an introvert is wonderful.Its a God given nature that needs to be exploited for its benefits. The only way to escape this temperament is to accept it, which means to understand it. Know who you are by reading about introversion. The sooner you accept your personality, the easier it will be to mingle and socialize because now you'll have control over any situation. Equally you have to find what your ability or talent is. Use it. Thats the only way. That is your defense. You may not have the best social skills, be the most talkative guy who seems to attract many hot girls but you might be an excellent writer or artist or poet. Maybe you're the next Eminem!Your gift will lift you above your weakness and eventually bring you the attention of others.

 Slowly as you use your talents it will grab the attention of other giving you the best of both worlds.

Because Introverts are highly sensitive and internalize everything-
they can take to heart and even tears
the meanest moments of social failures. Unfortunately we do care about what people think about us.
To an extent thats healthy. But the insecure introvert may take it a step further by being personal.
 No wonder so many Introverts are Schizophrenics, who abuse drugs and alcohol, I totally understand.
They give in to the pressure to fit in and be cool and mess up themselves. They dont know what they have!

Its not that the introvert doesn't want friends or doesn't have friends or is a loner
he is just so extremely critical of himself  and others and wont go out of his way to prove a point.
He is laid back and calm and normal on the surface but inside his mind is deep like the ocean.
Introverts want to go on dates, go to parties, have fun, converse one on one, but it is difficult for us because
we are over critical thinkers- we cant turn this off like a switch- we need it for creative purposes. When we want to party, nobody is there to party, when we want to chill- we only see ourselves in the mirror. When we do party however infrequent, we are not aware of our high, these are special moments.

Introverts may be diagnosed with bipolar. Not all get to this state. Not all become Schizophrenics.

Introverts are not shy, when we come around we dont need help to bubble.
Our emotions at times override logic- and we can be over-trusting and naive. At times we get hurt for this.
As I said, we can take to heart any negative presumptions aimed at us.

On the other hand, those introverts whose hearts have been made
cold by negative social experiences can really do harm to society.
Instead of using their gifts for societies betterment- they make themselves rich
and watch society suffer. They rape the values of society because society raped their innocence- eye for an eye.
Again its all because of our highly sensitive nature. We have to learn to survive in a world of extroverts.
We have to put on a shield most times to protect ourselves from the woes of the world. If we dont do this we can be mistreated- its a survival strategy. Some introverts can appear overly mean when deep down they're not. Some appear overly kind, when they would rather not share. Its tricky.They do this because we recognize that we have an obligation to the feelings others. We survive as introverts by being tricky, impersonating extroverts when we have to.

Not all introverts make it. Some commit suicide. Some get ruled by the negative side of their emotion
and become Schizophrenics and blame society by thinking people are out to harm them. Some do harm to the world using their brain as a weapon.
But while this is not to defend the wrong course of some introverts- the world is partially to blame for the misfortunes of fhese victims.

Let me say, extroverts on a whole can display introvert behavior, but to what extreme?We all tip on side of the scale or the other.

Some of the worlds greatest writers, musicians, artists, builders, poets, politicians and skilled people were introvert dominant which means they exhibited more introversion trait than extroversion.
I will tell you a few most notable people who I believe are highly introverted

Eminem, Lady Gaga
Barack Obama

All these are interests of mine, selected because of preference.

So the world can learn alot from introversion.Take the time to know us, understand us and you'll see we are loyal people. We dont hesitate to move. Showing an introvert some interest can go a far way. We take time to study people by observing them. We are silent but very talkative inside- our mental activity wont shut up. It wont take us long to come around once we know you.
 Its obvious the world needs to be more introverted. The world needs more people who are laid back, calm, kind, gentle and patient. Who think deeply about life and invent things to make society better. There needs to be a balance of the two types. Importantly, introverts need to be saved before its too late. An introvert who uses his potential for evil has some painful experience with himself. Help make our lives better. You need us as much as we need you.

Big Fear

 My big fear.My biggest fear is failure. Failure is a state of mind.
 I dont like it. But sometimes I do taste it. But then I still dont accept it so I spit it out my mouth!
 I hate pity, I dont want any from nobody. I dont care.
 I dont like charity if its aiming directly at me so I avoid being in that position.
 God has given me a good head so I assure you I wont be on the street side begging bread.
 I dont like being broke so... I try to keep money around.
 I love it. If im hungry im gonna find it and spend it.
 I deserve the best things so dont look at the price tag on my watch. 
I dont mind what the preacher says-nothings wrong with money-- until its gone. 
You always need a little more, which begs the question; who doesn't like money?
 Money is everybody's insecurity. 
Besides my Mommy and Daddy I cant ever stretch my hand out to anybody. 
No. Cause im not a failure. I know better. If there is any sin that deserves punishment for those who commit- its poverty- which is broke. As in have nothing.
Ive always been independent so I work for what I want.
 Cause whatever I want I get, eventually- if I want it bad enough. I always find a way. 
The Good blesses those who help themselves. Peace

Analysis of Madonna Girl Gone Wild pt 2

She keeps saying I have that burning hot desire, no one can’t put out my fire, here it comes. Its for these reasons why I’m led to believe that the fruit- is the fruit of sex, which is compassion and intimacy. You see the gays who are said to be gay flocking and mounting her because she displays the fruit of desire on her. And they are tempted by it. Typically, usually bad girls have this burning desire that attracts men and the only reason for that is – sex.

It is the reason why Eve ate the fruit first and not Adam- because that is the gift of the woman- Sex. Its only through the act of sex that the human population can continue. Sex is an emotion based thing that’s why women are more soft and gentle and warm.

The woman shared that gift with the Man but some women choose to make it a curse to allure men and to get there way. That is the message of this song. Ya

Analysis of Madonna’s Girl Gone Wild Song.

Analysis of Madonna’s Girl Gone Wild Song (with video)

(Please watch the Video before reading this Analysis)

Recently I got a chance to look at Madonna’s new video for her song ‘Girl Gone Wild’ and literally I was speechless. More because of her balls in using blasphemous statements towards God, the video is a kind of mockery toward religious conformity and an embrace to secularism and worldly freedom. She blatantly blasts any form of conformity to institutional religion (as we know her for) and encourages freedom of spirit in the name of fun. Well, I like Madonna and here’s why, not only because she is talented and gifted for music, which is an artistic field- it’s obvious this woman is given the gift of music; but more because as an artist myself (A poet) I can appreciate the creativity of other artists. I love art and I’m a deep thinker- at least I try to be.

For this song along with video I have decided to write an interpretation of my opinion on the message. Any video so bizarre has to be pushing some kind of sublime ideology to the viewers. So I will do my best and hope you enjoy the read. Literature is a form of art along with music (sounds), dance, visual, and the singing is poetry in case you didn’t know. Art has many forms and every good artist is trying to tell a story in his/her art. It’s as simple as that. In the video Madonna goes way back into history to tell a story behind the lyrics of the song- a visual explanation of the songs content. Listening to the song and the sound arrangement with the words you would say- this is a dance pop electric high energy club music for the young and energetic. You might even feel like dancing because of the heavy base and timed beats. No problem. But when you listen to the lyrics (the poetry) you are taking it a step further.

I’ll start with the most difficult part the video because of the complexity of the symbolism and religious connotations she draws to the present society. See the past is always being compared to the present because there is a relationship between the past and the now. This might be a long one- so put on your seatbelt. Madonna opens the video with few words, which set the foundation, she is representing the ‘Girl Gone Wild’, which could be your daughter or sister or whoever, more than likely its a young inexperienced girl. She says, 

“Oh my God I'm heartly sorry for having offended thee and I detest all my sins because I dread The loss of heaven and the pains of hell but most of all because I love thee and I want So badly to be good”

Now reading those lines, it might sound to you like a sincere prayer, but to Madonna, she does not mean it! It is sarcasm and mockery which is the same thing. She is saying the opposite of what she means or meaning the opposite of what she says. You only have to listen to her tone of voice and look at her non verbal facial expression to agree with me. She knows what she’s doing and she is not sorry. This is the foundation for the video. This really is a good girl gone Wild. She doesn’t care.

Next, I will focus on the visuals so blatant in the video and what they mean symbolically. While she is saying those words as if communicating with God, you see two men sucking on a fruit that appears to look like an apple (it’s very disturbing but an artist’s work nonetheless)- implying that they might be homosexuals (gays). But suck on an apple? The apple symbolizes lust of the eye or the forbidden fruit from Genesis and since the song is about A Girl Gone Wild- I have come to that assumption. The fruit of genesis was on the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. And God forbid man to touch, taste or even go near it.

Next you see Madonna going on her stomach like a serpent and twiling and slithering with represents a snake or lower beast. Skipping that, the next scene is a gang of men dancing very erotic to in ordered fashion. What stand out the most is the feminine posture of these men. They have the build of men but the curve of women at the same time- it’s very freaky! Could this represent the unity of the masculine and feminine as one energy? Others might say they are homosexual- that’s a possibility as well. The next scene is quick, Madonna is chained by four chains and dancing- this could represent religious or institutional social inhibitions of mental chains that restrain her physical movement.

The next thing you see is a firework of sparks shaped into a cross in which Madonna is standing in front. The men who are presumed to be gay, I don’t think they are gay. They hover over Madonna in a kind of worship and adoration like a child on a mother’s breast in a kind of intimate unity. The next scene is a naked man in front of a glass mirror whose posture represents very much the painting of Michelangelo creation of Adam. The scene is fast but worthy of note taking. He (could be Adam) is lying beside a mirror beating the mirror looking directly at himself. The mirror here too is symbol of man being made in the image of God of man and God being one. The man looks to be kissing himself and beating the mirror- it could be an act of loneliness. While he is doing that, the two men are lusting over the apple but not actually eating it. The man appears to be going crazy. Very deep.

Fast forward the video, the next few scenes you see a well sculpted man with a crown of thorns on his head representing Christ- obviously. The scenes flash a pose of Christ with is arms extended east and west horizontally- the famous scene of agony when he paid for the sins of the world. Madonna flashes the same pose in-front a sparked cross which some would say represents the Baphomet. You then see her tossling and wrestling with a huge snake representing a kind of struggle with evil or sin- because the Devil is represented as a snake, who is subtly and a deceiver. It could be the world. The final scene four drops of blood seeping from her eye- could be the innocence of her purity leaving her- her former life.

I have to come back to the apple while explaining the lyrics because it means something deeper. Its safe to say Madonna is representing Eve, here’s why? Before Eve tasted of the forbidden fruit she was innocent and pure, undefiled and obedient. Madonna obviously has tasted of the fruit evidenced by the lyrical content- she is describing an experience. Her eyes are opened and she is corrupted. She keeps saying, a good girl gone wild, a good girl gone wild, and girls they just wanna have some fun. But the fun she is referring to is innocent freedom in her eyes. The freedom of the world.  Its a club scene, a girl is dancing, its a new experience for her, guys are around- she’s having ‘fun’. Too much. Madonna says, the room is spinning in the speed of Tanquaray, im about to go astray my inhibitions gone away, i feel like sinning, you got me in the zone.

She keeps saying I have that burning hot desire, no one can’t put out my fire, here it comes. Its for these reasons why I’m led to believe that the fruit- is the fruit of sex, which is compassion and intimacy. You see the gays who are said to be gay flocking and mounting her because she displays the fruit of desire on her. And they are tempted by it. Typically, usually bad girls have this burning desire that attracts men and the only reason for that is sex.

It is the reason why Eve ate the fruit first and not Adam- because that is the gift of the woman sex. Its only through the act of sex that the human population can continue. Sex is an emotion based thing that’s why women are more soft and gentle and warm.

The woman shared that gift with the Man but some women choose to make it a curse to allure men and to get there way. That is the message of this song. Ya
