Johnny Miles

Meanwhile, Alonso's father, Bernardo, has a secret of his own...a skeleton in his closet by the name of Ra l Ignacio Velasco. The sworn adversary with whom Bernardo went into business to keep the family business afloat. Years later, Ra l is eager to continue their peculiar arrangement, despite all debts having been paid. Now, on a lush, tropical island inhabited by rogues and thieves, the four men must make a stand. They are thrust into tumultuous events that will scar them all and change their lives forever. Can father and son unite long enough to plot against Velasco's chicanery and save innocent Arbol? Will they be able to salvage the legacy of Casa Rodrigo? Or will Bernardo and Alonso fall prey to the sadistic villain intent on seeing them all burn in hell?

Inner peace is possible when we surrender to who and what we truly are. After being arrested for protesting at a rally, activist and political science professor, Michael Cooke, meets police officer Beauregard Isiah Guilford. Beauregard is a walking wet dream-the type of man that makes Michael swoon. All it takes is a single look, a touch, a kiss, and Michael is a quivering, cowering mess. There's only one problem. The butch, gruff and muscular Alpha top's ability to showcase Michael's submissiveness fills him with shame. Unable to accept his role in the bedroom, no matter how fulfilling it might be, Michael breaks up with Beauregard, only to learn that he can run, but he can't hide from his own truth... no matter where he is, or how far he runs, Michael isn't complete unless he's with the one man who unleashed his inner whore. The two men cannot seem to stay away from each other. Michael must learn, and accept, when it comes to sex, being a sub is nothing to be ashamed of-or risk losing Beau forever. Just when it seems all may be lost, an unexpected visit from Santa-yes, the real Santa-helps them realize magic can be had, but only if they believe.

Sereno Hidalgo, newly divorced from his husband, flies to Puerto Rico to reconnect with Esteban, an estranged cousin who owns a coffee plantation. But with Hurricane Mar a only days away, the reunited Hidalgo cousins-together with Esteban's wife-are forced to prepare for the worst storm to strike the island in a century. As with any natural disaster, there is invariably something to grab you by surprise, something to take you by storm. For Esteban, it's the shock of a family scandal long kept secret, but revealed by an unusual acquaintance. For Sereno, that surprise is Augusto Toro, the perfect blend of African, Native American, and Spanish cultures that produce the great majority of Puerto Ricans.As Mar a churns in the Atlantic, ever closer, Sereno finds himself inexplicably attracted to the handsome man everyone calls Chocolate. But Sereno was never noted for detecting red flags in his affairs. The only thing he was ever good at was running away from trouble. Now he can't. He's too far gone, in too deep, and the hurricane is way too close. Sereno must find a way to cope with both the fear of loving a bisexual man and handling the mind-numbing, horrifying impact of the ravaged land called La Isla del Encanto.

For the majority of the past twenty-seven years, Johnny Miles has lived in a one-person cell on San Quentin's death row, among hundreds of others convicted of first-degree murder. Johnny Miles has had to find a measure of acceptance to continue living on death row. He has not chosen suicide or to use hard drugs. Neither has he been a victim of a fatal attack by other inmates. Johnny Miles has chosen to live while under the sentence of death. Johnny Miles is the primary author of the book: THE JOHNNY D. MILES LEARNING CURVE: An Introduction to (Death Row Inmate) Johnny D. Miles' Collage Art, Poetry & Mind.The Learning Curve is fine art in that patient informed perception is required for a fuller imbuing of Johnny Mile's artistic intent and subterranean self-expression. The Learning Curve is meant for the learned: a person that can separate flair from meaning; a person able to perceive thematic repetition and aberration; more or less an investigative and curious art enthusiast and/or enjoyer of abstract poetry.Johnny Mile's collaging and poetry exist within the solitary confinement of his own sense of rhyme and rhythm, concept, tone, and intrigue. His work is a soliloquy in the effort to find meaning and transmit meaning. All reading of his work should occur with the background knowledge of his minimal formal education for Johnny dropped out of school in the 10th grade.The word psychopath denoted is clinical while in general parlance communicates pure evil. The word "psychopathy" connotes less negativity to the labeled while still bordering on insult. Basketball great Michael Jordan has been called psychopathic as has the sitting American President, Donald Trump. British psychologist Kevin Dutton in his so-called, "Great British Psychopath Survey" found many eminently valued professions, such as clergy, filled in great proportions by psychopaths. Due to my own lack of credentials and my genuine relationship with Johnny Miles I cannot label him. However, Johnny Mile's art and poetic expressions are a step toward Johnny Miles exposing himself to the world as he is.Johnny Mile's collage art is the diamond produced through nearly twenty-seven years of impaction by a solitary cell on death row, his own thoughts, and perceptions of self, and his character and propensities. Death row shaped Johnny Miles into a collage artist. Inspiration struck his person in the form of an adolescent's after-school letter to a death row inmate; he tried collaging and it worked for him. Since that day in 2003, Johnny Miles has been dedicated to the art form. Search for the My Crime Series on Amazon and Audible, biographies written by inmates on inmates. The My Crime series "candidly communicates the upbringing, life experience, character, and motivations of the incarcerated." Such communication is to grant the broader public an understanding of the men and women in California prisons (www.crimebios.com)

This study focuses on a reading of Proverbs 19 as satire and argues that it alludes to two points of critique against Solomon: his political policy of socio-economic injustice and his numerous sexual (in)discretions. That Solomon abandoned his divinely proscribed duty only evinces his lack of fear of Yahweh. First, Solomon demonstrates his lack of discernment by an inability to rule with righteousness, justice and equity because of administrative policies that bled the innocent dry of their resources for his own self-aggrandizement. Second, Solomon's sexual behavior reflects his need of Wisdom as the personification of eroticism. The absence of the fear of Yahweh in Solomon prompts the poets reproof in Proverbs 19 that he should resume his proper role of Torah meditation. How the son responds to the decision posed to him remains decidedly open-ended, since satire generally offers no denouement to its plot. Nevertheless, the signs of this satiric poetry intimate the wise king as a royal fool.
