David (/ˈdeɪvɪd/; Hebrew: דָּוִד, Modern David, Tiberian Dāwîḏ;ISO 259-3 Dawid; Arabic: داوُد Dāwūd; Syriac: ܕܘܝܕ Dawid; Ancient Greek: Δαυίδ; Latin: Davidus, David; Strong's: Daveed) was, according to the Books of Samuel, the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel, and according to the New Testament, an ancestor of Jesus. His life is conventionally dated to c. 1040 – 970 BCE, his reign over Judah c. 1010–970 BCE.
The Books of Samuel, 1 Kings, and 1 Chronicles are the only Old Testament sources of information on David, although the Tel Dan Stele (dated c. 850–835 BCE) contains the phrase בית דוד (bytdwd), read as "House of David", which many scholars confirm to be a likely plausible match to the existence in the mid-9th century BCE of a Judean royal dynasty called the House of David.
Depicted as a valorous warrior of great renown, and a poet and musician credited for composing much of the psalms contained in the Book of Psalms, King David is widely viewed as a righteous and effective king in battle and civil justice. He is described as a man after God's own heart in 1 Samuel 13:14 and Acts 13:22.
David Jay (born April 24, 1982) is an American asexual activist. Jay is the founder and webmaster of the Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN).
Frustrated with the lack of resources available regarding asexuality, Jay launched AVEN's website in 2002. Since then, he has taken a leading role in the asexuality movement, appearing on multiple television shows, and being featured heavily in Arts Engine's 2011 documentary (A)sexual.
AVEN, which Salon.com referred to as the "unofficial online headquarters" of the asexuality movement, is widely recognised as the largest online asexual community. Its two main goals are to create public acceptance and discussion about asexuality and to facilitate the growth of a large online asexual community. As of June 17, 2013, AVEN has nearly 70,000 registered members.
At the age of 15, Jay began considering himself asexual, and he came out as asexual while a student at Wesleyan University in Connecticut. As of November 2012, Jay is in a romantic relationship with an asexual girlfriend and hopes to adopt a child.

Eloquent, she would chatter in her sleep
The untended splinter sinks in deep
Betrayed a hole and corner secret
Let the cat out of her mouth
Subconscious confession
Resulting in her facing south
The beast lay between them
He picked a bloody bone
Stalemate, scissors, paper, stone
He beat her hands down
Cupid died from heartache
He blew out the candles as the gunsmoke made a snake
It would never stand up in court
They could shoot peas through his story
Thay say an alibi can be bought
But it won't save the day
Between the Devil and the deep blue sea
A prayer on the cuff of his shirt
In need of a miracle doctor
In need of a balm for the hurt
He left hope buried with his victim
In unmarked dirt
Days of wine and roses
Days of winter and thorn
He fingers spilt salt on the table
Thinking of something to say
Will throwing it over his shoulder keep the hangman
away?
When he stood up in court
