SB. has been fascinated by poetry, especially free verse, with out rime and short tales, he writes since he was a boy.
"I wrote because I loved it, because it catalyzed my emotions into a welcome creation, then a palpable shift occurred: I could fusion my feelings healing. Seeing parts of my dreams in shadows and shadows in my lights, and realizing that they were one".
He has read extensively about short stories and has aimed at lyrics.

Also he is a cofrade of Chiquinquira, he participates in the masses at Saint Martha Catholic Church and others important events of Chiquinquira like conferences of growing, Tennis open, masses and parties of Chiquinquira, Cena de Gala in December, and Novena de Aguinaldos. etc.
De las cosas que mas me ha llamado la atencion en La Cofradia es el "Fervor" como algo que va mas alla de lo Mistico.
"Como si se tratara de una conversacion Confidencial con Jesus"
La vida es berraca sin Jesus, ante los abatares del destino saco fuerzas de la fe en cristo crucificado, que resucito de entre los muertos.
En la oracion encuentro fuerza para la vida diaria, porque es el trato del alma con Dios. Dios es amor, y amor es bondad que se regala a si misma; una plenitud existencial que no se encierra en si, sino que se derrama, que quiere regalarse y hacer feliz. A ese desbordante amor de Dios debe toda la creacion de su ser... La oracion es como "stairways to heaven", por la que el espiritu humano se trepa hacia Dios y la gracia de Dios Desciende a toda su creacion."

Why Poetry and Heavy Metal?
My perents used to do a lot of road trips
and I got very carsick.
To distract my self, I stared out the window and dreaming listened Heavy Metal with my wolk man, and started recognizing patterns in Rock music as Halloween, Iron Maiden... and others.
I learned some lyrics in english, but i prefered its translation or meaning in spanish.
I never had any self-knowledge like that.
I spend far more time remembering different scenarios on the road as towns and others villeges in Colombia; and I think so that mixed of confusion made me a Poet.

Music
I like all Music
Pongame a escuchar desde Boleros trillaos de los 20s hasta los Tangos mas Arrabaleros pasando por la tradicion Alemana del tiempo de Hittler, Luego Mezcleme un Vallenato bien Juepuerca y de sobremesa dejeme ollendo a Cradles Hill, Trivium, My Chimical Romance, etc
Luego le dariamos vuelta al Caballero Gaucho, Mercedes Sosa, Los Visconti, Rata Blanca, Miguel Mateos, Soda, Enanitos... etc. Bueno en Realidad esos Argentinos tienen el talento en Español, de casi todo. Los Britanicos como Def Leppard, Queen, etc sin dejar de mencionar a los Alemanes con Accept y Scorpions tienen lo suyo en ingles, suenan Duro, Las Bandas Americanas, las hay Malas pero de lo repetitivas ya empiezan a gustar, lo que degenero la musica Americana fue el Rap, porque antes bien podian hacerlo Mc Hammer como Blondy o Vanella Ice.
Mejor no me pongan a Hablar de musica porque pa que?
Movies
Terminator
todas las que tengan que ver con sangre,masacres, muertos por alli y por aca, etc, crudezas, y caricaturas.
me gusta el drama.
Old Boy
Batman Begining
Da vince Code
El Secreto
El Maquinista
Smoking Aces
etc....
Television
Si tienen razon "mucha television"
I like all about news, and advertisings too, I hate sports, I preffer music videos, documentals, Discovery, National Geographic chanell, Television Colombiana todos los canales y en especial esas caricaturas de los 80s como
Centella:
"doko ni dare kawa
shiranai keredo
daremo ga ninna
shitte iru
gekko kamen oji sawa
seigi no mikata iihitoda
hayate no yohi arawarete
hayate no yohi sateiku
geko kamen wa dare de show
geko kamen wa dare de show"
..
Meteoro,Superman, el pajaro loco,Jose Miel, La abejita Maya, etc
Pero la television Colombia como en muchas partes dependia de una Licitacion, y esta se renovaba cada año o dos. pero los programas que venian de USA los llamados enlatados, como "Lobo del Aire", "Los Magnificos" etc eran comprados por el govierno, y a veces no habia suficiente presupuesto para continuar estas series y dicho presupuesto tenia que venir de los anunciantes, asi que si a estos les iba mal nosotros los teleadictos nos iba a ir peor,porque no ibamos a continuar viendo lo que nos gustaba asi que muchas veces se veia mas comerciales que programas y ni modo como buen adicto a este medio, nuestra mejor amigo inseparable, la television, pues ya era un miembro mas de la familia y hasta habia algunos que hasta le ponian nombre y hasta los bautizaban...
El caso es que si vamos a nombrar programas, tambien vamos a reconocer comerciales famosos, como el que hizo Sofia Vergara cuando tenia 17 años, que estando en la playa y en vikiny, con un calor del carajo tenia que brincar por la arena ardiente para alcanzar una caseta de Pepsi, el caso es que tenia que irse quitando la ropa y tirarla a la arena para pisarla y no quemarse los pies y asi alcanzar la famosa caseta...
como este habian muchos, como el de Davivienda, El de tohallas higienicas un comercial bastante grafico y asi sucesivamente...
Television is generally better than most other mediums for image advertising.
First of all, consumers prefer television advertising before buying the products. For example, if you don't have a clue how to do for go to buy a car, TV advertising show you how to going to a dealership; that is the same for others products like: food, toys, cloths, and shoes.
Television advertising can make the difference between a brand's succes or failure; because, what's happen if you have a diabetes and buy sweet cookies, if you die maybe your family demands the company of cookies, bacause that the same company prefer create two differnts brands: sugar free cookies and regular cookies.
but remember some times "sugar free" means in the product that in the price, sugar have no cost...
Books
One of the most important questions to ask yourself is what do I love to do?
So, I Love Poetry, I write Poems in Spanish, and I read Poetry in Spanish and English.
For example Sylvia Landa, Poetisa Cubana, Periodista, declamadora exelente, con sabor andaluz y Afrocubano.
Poetisa Criolla, mente ecumenica, apasionada de cuanto estima y quiere. Bilingue.
I like "Mar de Adentro"
Es en su totalidad, un poema de amor, humano y divino en el que la autora se autoretrata en multiples manifestaciones del "agape" y del "eros", en danza de imagenes y metaforas que permiten paladear a hondura de sus sentimientos y la belleza de sus palabras, entretejiendo vida y sueños, realidad y fantasia, en lo que se dice y en lo que se oculta.
(Se parece un poco a Dulce Maria)
Otras Poesias como "Infantil", "del Alba al Alba" etc. tambien me gustaron sobretodo por su amor a Cuba (me encanta la gente Regionalista, que guarda lo suyo, gente autentica que tambien reconoce otros valores y otras regiones como yo)
Hablando de cosas en comun y de lo que mas resalto de ella es que habla de su abuelo e hizo algo como para sentirse orgulloso hasta la eternidad, edito algo de su abuelo el Dr. Gabriel Garcia Galan, un historiador famoso en Cuba y su libro "El Tabaco y su accion en la guerra de independencia" donde da a conocer una carta inedita de Marti.
I like Gospel books, science fiction, etc.
Las Confesiones de San Agustin, El libro de la vida de Santa Teresa de Jesus y Los Ejercicios Espirituales de San Ignacio.
La Biblia y en especial el Catolisismo.
Claro que me gusta la caricatura como revistas de Aguila Negra, Kaliman, Orion, y como la evolucion es progreso vamos en Heavy Metal Magazine, confieso que he leido libros Manga y que todavia no he terminado 100 anos de soledad.
Marti
Unamuno
Gabriela Mistral
Alfoncina Estorni
Antonio Machado
Juan Ramon Jimenez
Garcia Lorca
Octavio Paz
Ortega
Emily Dickinson
y como dejar atras a esta gran escritora quien junto con otros autores que he
leido a dejado en el alma narrativa y muchas otras romanticas empedernidas
un gusto por el amor moderno y siempre clasico que describe el mundo de Milena
Gomez, sea pues un tributo a este sentimiento limpio y tierno de esta gran amiga
quien junto con su media naranja les deseare siempre lo mejor...
Heroes
"Life is an emotion, Died is a thought; write is love, love find me and allows me to see her”, “Here is always and always is where I want to stay”
Algunos Martires de la Iglesia (aunque no soy muy devoto a llegar a ser uno de ellos).
Juana de Arco, esta debio ser tremenda dura para lidiar con una pila de manes que me imagino que se lo pidieron y hasta le habrian intentado dar algo para que aflojara...
Admiro profundamente a los verdaderos lideres politicos, dejemolo en Mandela como por dar un ejemplo vivo y otros que aunque no son de mi color favorito son de admirar tambien.
Me gustan mis tiempos, la generacion que vivi estuvo llena de Heroes y la gente quiso imitarlos, tenemos de todo, Narcos, dictadores, asecinos, etc.
Pero quien imita lo bueno?
Y aunque lo malo tiene mas peso que lo bueno Hittler es de ser reconocido (aunque me heche de enemigo a los Antinazis), bueno no es la idea polemizar, pero recordemos lo que este Heroe para pocos, hizo a favor de la Humanidad, pues un dia 3 de octubre de 1942 hizo el lanzamiento de un cohete V-2 en la isla de Peenemunde (Alemania por supuesto), se trataba de una mortifera arma secreta (parecida a la que sacaron los Rusos ultimamente, sin radiacion ni que deje el suelo esteril para siempre), Bueno ya se que estaran pensando, que este man se enloquecio, pero ojo, gracias a eso fue el antecedente de la posterior tecnologia espacial. que luego, bueno ya sabemos lo del 1962 el astronauta Walter Schirra que duro en el "Sigma7" dando vueltas en esa capsula (o misil) por mas de 9 horas y 14 minutos, luego vine lo del Sputnik y despues los Americanos ponen la banderita americana en la Luna.
Ya vemos que hasta los Malos hacen cosas buenas sin pensarlo, Pero que decimos de Einstain que con la teoria de la relatividad y su famosa ecuacion de la Energia dio pie a que se inventara la Bomba Atomica y ya sabemos lo que quedo y sigue quedando porque es algo que se repite en el diario vivir de esos Orientales que no pueden cultivar, ni hacer nada en esas tierras debastadas, y los que nos jodimos fuimos todos porque la radiacion y el sobrecalentamiento del globo no es solamente por usar desodorante sino por el apetito del poder, el deseo de esclavisar y una supremacia estupida de governantes locos que no saben que hacer para sembrar el panico. como dirian por ahi "jueguen con mierda pero no salpiquen"
Quien recuerda a JP2?
Fui Salesiano, Boyscout y muy Altruista, pero los tiempos nos ponen a escojer ya cuando llega el momento de partir al descanso eterno, asi que no desconfies de los facinerosos, los filosofos falsos sin identidad, los estupidos que tienen una pata en la tumba y no saben dirigir su vida, no desconfies porque esta gente no sacara nada de ti, si aprendes a observarlos encontraras su desespero por tener una amistad y si los sabes manejar podras sacarle ventaja, alguna cosa. pero ten cuidado de no convertirte en uno de ellos, intenta ser autentico, encuentra el valor de la vida, aunque luego pierdas esa ilusion, porque nada es para siempre.
Pasaras como alguen que la vida la tomo por un momento y no como a quien se le impuso vivir.
_____________________________________________________
Pero no hay que ser ingratos y con mucha nostalgia se debe recordar tambien lugares que nos llenaron de heroismo en algun tiempo de nuestras vidas, como fue el caso de cuando niño fuimos a los scouts y como buen amante a la naturaleza queriamos repetir esas azañas en vacaciones y queriamos remplazar la tropa con nuestros primos y salir por los alrededores de la finca, me acuerdo de "el picacho Mountain" a long time ago, when I lived in Colombia with my family, my cousins and I went camping to "el picacho mountain". It is located at east west of little town very far my parent's farm but in the same state, Antioquia. When we arrived to "El Picacho Mountain" it was night and we slept there; without wonder that, the next day when sunshine blessed us, two big eagles told us "good morning" these experience was cool, I felt high enough like "king of the world"; because everybody down, exept my cousins look like tiny ants, and me, on top of the mountain felt great...
I saw down a bunch of houses and towns which spread to amoung of flat valley.
I miss there time when my cousins and I visited these beautiful place; but the life goes on, and now I feel happy to tell you.

Nos han escrito y preguntado como lograr el exito para seducir a una chica, pues bien... cada cual atrae lo que es.
mas en mi opinion, la mejor manera de atraer chicas variadas es disvariar las opiniones de los demas amigos para atraer lo que elos no han podido atraer.
Jamas le crea a un amigo el 100% de sus conquistas, porque la mayoria fueron logradas en su imaginacion.
asi que aqui van unos consejitos hagan lo contrario y demen su testimonio:
Never look down after making eye contact -- this is a sign of submission. - CoolHandLuke
Want to talk to that gorgeous girl who is so hot? Do it now. If things don't end up the way you want to, then at least you can sleep easily and you can focus on new and different projects. - Stockholder
Not approaching a girl actually feels worse than getting rejected. - Don Joey
Never ask a women to become exclusive. She must ask YOU. She must talk about it FIRST. - Anti-Dump
When I got their name, I'd use it constantly. Women think their name is the most important word in the world. - bondjamesbond
DJs know not all girls are worth dating. - Wildthang
Convince the girl that she is more interested in you than you are in her. - Terminator911
Trust me on this one, a confident elephant man swimming in a pool of dung, is more attractive than an insecure Tom Cruise. - Challenge Guy
Shy people THINK too much. Shy people react to situations when they should be acting/initiating. - Pook
Most women don't go for guys who "love" them. They go for guys who excite them, frighten them, give them an adrenaline rush, and can keep them all moist by acting like real men. - WildThang
Single women go on dates to have a good time, not to be serious. Keep this in mind and never act serious on the first few dates. - Terminator911
Don't ever say "I don't know, what do you want to do?" - CoolHandLuke
End the date before she does. When you first start dating, it is important to avoid that awkward time when it is getting late and she finally has to announce that it is time for her to go home. - Terminator911
As a true DJ you have to be willing to cut a girl loose in a second if she crosses the line. And let her know it. - PimpNHard
When you look directly and potently into a woman's eyes, her body produces chemicals like phenylethylamine, or PEA, that jolts the sensation of being in love. - Surfboard
Unless you're blind, you use your eyes to communicate with women more than your mouth. - bondjamesbond
Warmth is the reason why Danny De Vito gets laid. Lack of warmth is probably the reason why you don't. - Challenge Guy
Always assume the sale. - Master of the Universe
You can't be happy in a relationship unless you're happy being single.
I feel good within a literature environment.
I was born in USA, but raised in Colombia, my parents’ homeland, until I was 28 years old. I am lived in Miami ever since.
One gift God gave me was to be able to write Poems.
"I wrote because I loved it, because it catalyzed my emotions into a welcome creation, then a palpable shift occurred: I could fusion my feelings healing. Seeing parts of my dreams in shadows and shadows in my lights, and realizing that they were one".
"Me arrancaste la cabeza de un mordisco
llenaste de saliva el mastil de mi amor
mientras lubrique la flor de tu cariño
gritamos de placer los dos"
stephen Betancourt
I attended in MDC as Mail Clerk staff.
“Stephen Betancourt was born in Queens, New York City, but raised in the populous city of Medellin, Colombia. Stephen has developed a brilliant career as poet, and his imagination goes beyond the frontiers of the last unknown universe, known as Andromeda. Stephen celebrates to both the dead as well as the life, since both are part and joy of the human cycle and recycle bin. His stories and poems are based on the simplicity of life, on plain things like an unwanted love, a woman traveling in a NYC congested subway at 5:30 p.m., a song to a homeless begging for money @ the McDonald in front of MDC Wolfson Campus, etc.”
Edgar Castro
Todos somos foraneos de nuestra propia cuna, o que lo digan los profetas...
No le tengo miedo a morir
sino a ser olvidado...
y por eso le doy un consejo a todos mis amigos
Adoren a sus dioses
amen a sus mujeres
y defiendan su pais...
(no el que los llama "imigrantes")
(...)aunque aqui todo sea material
podras fundir tu amor, alienar tu corazon
y luchar "por ella" en esta guerra llamada vida.
Mas recuerda:
la muerte esta al frente...
o es la inmortalidad lo que nos espera.
Como una mujer es Colombia
en este pais el amor se olvida, pero tu nombre queda.
-Habre de morir? -Todos !!
Pero tu nombre es guerra...
_____________________________________________
about me:
One gift God gave me was to be able to write Poems.
My approach to writing a (love) poem is simple: just write a poem. There are no new words... there are no new expressions but Ideas and there are different ways to say, "I LOVE YOU" I don't have to be happy to write a poem with rime. I don't have to be classic to write a classic poem. I don't pretend.
My writing doesn't depend on me being in love.
what's the biggest difference between love poems of my era and love poems now?
Today, we're bombarded, in every corner of life, with sex. sex is all over the books, Hentai magazines, television, music, etc
so the bluntness of talking about sex is... more acceptable now days.
who is my muse?
each woman who see me directly to my eyes with love or desire... The life, each ray of sun, flower or the contrast too like death, darkness and everything...
Dedicated to many elements, circumstances and people that existed and those who still assumed the destiny like a responsibility. Especially to my Grandfather who himself reflected in me and owe him more than this ordinary existence, the magic of feelings through words... "to you Grandfather whose spirit transcended in me. I dedicate to you my writings"
When I lived in my country, my parents had an old house outside the city on a hill. In the yard there was a big gate with the family shield in a silver background and a golden Lion. In the yard was a big garden with beautiful roses, other flowers, and aromatic plants. My great grand father kept his ancient French culture. For example, our living room was very antique. There was a big old portrait of our first ancestor on top of the fireplace, he wore a silly white wig. The old Lois XV furniture spread in a big salon with rough floor and dark walls. I also remember the black old Ford Model 1, but the motor was damaged, because my uncle "The Mechanic" tried to fixed it without being succesful. In the kitchen our women cooked soups, creams and other french recipies, as well as latin foods of course. But the big problem was the burner needed heat, so someone needed first to go to the forest and cut a tree, and make a log to start the burner. The tradition was: "If you came with a guest or new girlfriend, you and your guest, must took the hatchet and went into the jungle and cut a tree in little pieces take log and carry to the kitchen's log storage before midnight.

what i would i do for a first date?
I know that, Single women go on dates to have a good time, not to be serious. so, I never act on the first few dates.
Unless I am blind, I use my eyes to communicate with women more than my mouth, I mean some times is imposible resist and I falling in her play...
But I looking for an honest woman, who do not be shy, cause Shy people THINK too much. Shy people react to situations when they should be acting/initiating...
Se busca una mujer inteligente, que se sienta orguyosa de si misma
que prefiera la comodidad antes que el estilo sin dejar de verse elegante y muy en su forma.
que no navegue por la vida en un mar en calma...
porque siempre habran situaciones en las que tendra que nadar o ahogarse. Ademas veanlo de esta forma, si decide nadar a veces se sorprenderas de lo bien que lo hace.
Me gusta la perfeccion y porsupuesto la belleza
pero lo que de verdad me importa es encontrar el equilibrio entre su mentalidad, su cuerpo y su espiritu.
que sienta en todo momento una nesecidad de ser independiente, pero que a la vez pida ayuda y dependa sentimental y emotivamente de mi, es decir que le guste encontrar la fuerza en la ternura y que a su vez encuentre dominio y control en quien la ama, que se sienta protegida por mi, porque yo soy firme y seguro cuando me dan confianza.

Hi Stephen.... I did not know its you... Hey you looking good! Anyways I am in Miami. My MSN is monequita16@hotmail.com Lets chat. I am desperately looking for a job and so far I am not lucky at all. Write me!!! Monika
Look around and you can see unshakable powerhouses are crashing to their knees ao a daily basis. While others are finding greater opportunities than ever before. There is notthing more scary than giving up. Don't lay down!
You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I'll rise.
Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? 'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells Pumping in my living room.
Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I'll rise.
Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoulders falling down like teardrops. Weakened by my soulful cries.
Does my haughtiness offend you? Don't you take it awful hard 'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines Diggin' in my own back yard.
You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I'll rise.
Does my sexiness upset you? Does it come as a surprise That I dance like I've got diamonds At the meeting of my thighs?
Out of the huts of history's shame I rise Up from a past that's rooted in pain I rise I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear in the tide. Leaving behind nights of terror and fear I rise Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear I rise Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise I rise I rise.
On holiday in Taiwan enjoying a break on the west coast, fine five star hotel, great scenery, nice beach and pretty gals. Two weeks of bliss at a new holiday destination. Little was I aware that Red China was about to plan her invasion to unite her renegade province by force. Recent jet air combats left an uneasy peace with Taiwan the victor. I got up at dinnertime after a long heady night out; to see short range rockets hit the train station. Huge blasts ruptured the sky knocking me senseless. Medium range missiles thundered inland hitting hell knows what. Taiwanese jet fighters rose in their dozens form their bases and headed west. Distant explosions rocked the blue summer Asian sky, what do I do as the air attack sirens sound?
KNOCK EM DEAD
Her plan didn’t go smoothly, her rockets had caused huge material damage but she hadn’t caught the Taiwanese air force on the ground. Her jets had been dispersed; they knew what their brothers were planning. Huge aerial encounters of over a hundred warplanes knocked them dead. By sea communist troops embarked in ships to invade, most died in the ocean. Taiwan missile strikes killed thousands still they came, unstoppable. A single Taiwan jet carried one secret bomb heading to Shanghai. The end…
HOW WE DANCED
Around and round we danced in an exotic Asian club to pounding alternative music. Who said they couldn’t party? Like it’s their, our, last night on earth. Little did we all know that this prophecy was true? One night if fun with a Taiwanese lady, only dancing you understand. They are not like western ladies. On and on we danced feeling alive, when we kissed it was like fire of the positive kind. Neither of us knew we were being watched, that a huge military machine was about to strike. Hours later our nightclub was destroyed; I never did see my Taiwan lady again. I only know her name and have precious memories of th
I have had so many requests for this that i am sending it again. Those that have seen it please understand. Thank you Erik
Life is a journey through many terrain From gardens of pleasure to deserts of pain From an ocean of love to a jungle of hate From Mountains of glory to canyons of fate.
There's a highway for joy and a highway for sorrow A Road for today and a road for tomorrow.
So choose your path wisely and walk with care If you follow your heart, you'll find your way there.
I've been to the garden and planted seeds there. I've been to the desert and felt the despair.
I've swam in the ocean and drank of it's wine I climbed up the mountain to touch the sky.
I went to the canyon and started to cry I've traveled both highways, both today And tomorrow.
I've basked in the joy And wallowed in sorrow. My Path has been chosen and I've walked it with care.
I followed My heart and I'm on my way there
So I'll just keep walking till I find what I'm after. To Mountains and oceans and Gardens of laughter.
