Hate
Hate is a heavyweight, I know cause she weighs on me, i try to dodge her but she lodges her-self in a corner and sorta lays on me, it's like she knows I don't want her, but she's attracted to my dislike, I guess opposites do attract, because me and hate we're in a fistfight, hate circles the ring, we got married with dull diamonds, the luster was lost because love never signed in, I mean the clock was punched, but I had a hunch it was domestic violence, hate screaming words of profanity while love was kept silent, peace be still? but hate stole it without even trying, she never offered me a...

I learn
While I live I breathe, as I breathe I hope, I learn by teaching so I teach...I keep reaching:
I'm competing in a world full of sport and distortions, and distractions that's costing us more than we can afford, our actions speaks louder than bombs bursting over Baghdad, but remember for every bomb that burst there has to be some backlash;
While I live I breathe, as I breathe I hope, I learn by teaching so I teach... I keep reaching:
I'm repeating many lessons cause repetition make masters, its the mother of mathematics and the father to the rapture, I want to capture the...

Love is Hard
Love is hard to find, and even harder to get a grip on, far too many people trip on their own ideas of love, some purchase roses to try and manifest their feelings, but what happens to the feelings when the roses die, is love just symbolic or is it a concrete thing, is it something that's built brick by brick like a building, does love have a ceiling, I mean is the power of love limited, is love like a gimmick used as a step toward sex, is love taken out of context and made complex, is it the beginning of something big, is it the be all end all, if love makes you rise, how can you fall... in...

The Cycle
Life has never been a straight line, life is designed to remind us its a cycle, life doesn't like you or dislike you, life is indifferent, you see, the difference between to live and life is that life is eternal, while to live is finite, so life might, learn you a few things if you paid attention, our attention span is so short that we long for Southern Comforts, but the real comfort comes when we learn to live from, center to circumference, and then we confront a zone of comfort that comes to us naturally, actually, life is an obstacle, unless you stick to...the script, and understand the...

Lookin Around
When I look around, tears begin to fill my eyes, as I try to make sense of a senseless world, a world in which the value of life is devalued and a valuable friend becomes a foe, in the blink of an eye...damn--I don't know!
When I look around, I witness a world full of communication, but so little community, maybe I'll assume the responsibility of bringing unity to human beings who seems to be seeing life, and life's issues through a glass darkly...damn--I don't know!
When I look around, and see the fabric of life fornicating with fabrication, then I know, the human family has failed...

Everything is Everything
Every birth ends in death, and every building in destruction,for every action there's a reaction or some sort of repercussion, now what goes up must come down, and every sound follows a silence, there's wars and rumors of wars so peace crushed by violence, the unknown is made known through manifestation or revelation, then the naked Truth is exposed and it disrobes a whole nation, so inflation goes up while the economy downsizes, and for every job that's lost it seems to compound the crisis, yet every tear ends with a dry eye, and every day segues into the night, and then the light shined in...

Mommy Cried
I looked up and asked Mommy...where's Daddy?, and Mommy cried;
Mommy tried to hide behind eyes that despise the reality that daddy casually walked out of our lives, I was five years old and couldnt hold back my tears, because Mommy's fears for the future took hold of me, but Mommy took hold of me and help me near:
I looked up and asked Mommy...where's Daddy?, and Mommy cried;
Mommy tried to explain about the flicker of a flame, and how it fades, and how a man can weaken if he feels beaten by a system, and how he starts insisting that everybody's against him, and so he flees...

I Wanna Be
I wanna be to humanity as the carcass is to the vulture , I wanna be as music is to our culture, I wanna be as the evening shade is to the Owl and I wanna cleanup the bowels of the beast, I wanna be able to teach that which was not taught to me, I wanna reach the point my comrades fought to be you see, nothing comes easy except the path of least resistance, but it's persistence that pays off, so I'm off and running 100 miles I don't need no days off, I wanna be to humanity as harmony is to the symphony, I wanna be as the American Dream was meant to be, freedom, justice and equality for...

Tried In The Fire
I've been tried in the fire, and took on the shape of a man, I done walked on hot coals and carry this load in both my hands, to hell and back by popular demand I drop in my three point stance...ready to tackle the world, I embrace my hardships so much ship won't sink when I hit hard times, tried time and time again like a trend was being set, I try to live my life with no apologies and with no regrets, because what's done can't be undone so I'm undaunted by my past doings, I just learn from my mistakes and look toward a future that I won't let my past ruin;
I've been tried in the fire,...

Friendship
Friendships shouldnt end simply because the waters are turbulent, friendships must be scrutinized and offered to those who are deserved, friendship is a work in process that works itself into a lifetime, and little did I know that a friend could become a lifeline, time doesn't spoil friendships it actually makes them stronger, finer, like wine gets when you let it sit in the cellar a little longer, friends are like gravity because they happen to keep you grounded, surrounded by support to help you through your darkest thoughts, ideas are ideal for the sharing in friendships, friends often...

Resident Peace
Take me to a place where peace resides;
where I can ride on the wings of clouds above crowds, where my thoughts are no longer crowded or populated with lies, where my doubts are crucified by the presentation of evidence,
Take me to a place where peace resides;
where the residence recognize the eye of the beneficent, where the relevant take precedence over the insignificant matters, where what matters most is the growth of our babies,
Take me to a place where peace resides;
where lives are considered valuable, where all able bodies value the sweat of labor, where a...

A slave to the art
I'm a slave to the art of writing;
I'm inscribing characters and symbols to symbolize my excitement, as the words produce ideas and prepares a pattern of thinking that's linking me directly to the universe:
I'm a slave to the art of writing;
So I burst on the scene, converse with the cosmos and turn the red planet green, form a community of star so we no longer have to dream, but simply live in awareness, no longer living careless we care more, so we shine...so we shine:
I'm a slave to the art of writing;
I put ink between lines and watch it redefine reality, people...
