POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
One last line, before I go to bed; The words bounce off this vapor as they pour from my head...
revenant
I turn cloth into diamonds
& raise riots from silence
In pursuit of these triumphs
I move without violence
Allow me my memories
as these moments make history
Much more of the past;
Continues on with me
What can be overcome
In the chase of rightful dreams
Yells out my name;
In a wake of primal screams....
& raise riots from silence
In pursuit of these triumphs
I move without violence
Allow me my memories
as these moments make history
Much more of the past;
Continues on with me
What can be overcome
In the chase of rightful dreams
Yells out my name;
In a wake of primal screams....

I simply try to walk
"as the crow fly's"
Cutting through the talk
& deconstructive lies
Moving through
these motions
emotionless & grey
Hoping my devotion
will make it through today
New visions of my future
as I spiral down the past
Surrounded in good fortune
Tho,
these day's are my last
On to other levels
of subatomic force
Set in line to lead
a new, uncharted course
Me, myself but different
Outside this shell you see
More modern...

I see these young buck's
they trying not to hate
This olde-ass 'G'
stepping up to the plate
"What's my next move?"
the people; they can't wait
Just a pawn in this game
calling out for "Check-mate"
Ya!
(chorus):
What_ya gunna do
when there's no where to go
When I've got the block's locked
selling out every show
When this beat moves your heart
& my lyrics you know
You'll give your last breath
to be apart of my flow
Spray some truth on these seeds
that's how my garden...

An epiphany forgotten
What could it be?
Much more than a dream
defined by The'
Inebriated well past
our rules before
In the brisk of dawn
on a berhly shore
We meet unworthy
of thoughts beyond
Working towards
our dreams long gone
Marching forward
this parade continues
Leaving behind
what lingers in you
My fight still swings
In the light of fire
this voice of change
In a silent choir
Lunging forward
with a peaceful stride
Pursuing this cause ...

Long after I'm gone
I'll still be the blame
Your reason to SCREAM
lash-out & complain
All alone with your demons
Feasting on memories
Spinning thru cycles
In a violent state of mind
As I said; I'll be gone
No longer in sight
So you & your shadow
can continue to fight
Keep lieing & crying
Justifying your rage
While I look to flying
with a turn of this page...

Sometimes it seems
too random for coincidence
On a surface unequal
to any sense of belief
Tho,
as the movements of nature
Pursue their true course
I'm led in directions
of serendipitous discovery
Constantly finding myself
In the company of stranger's
Delivering clues
for the next phase in this quest
Riddled by visions
Confused with emotion
Unaware of what's comming
yet unafraid to continue
A fixture within this labyrinth
Fulfilling a secret dream...

Dare I ask:
What has you so mad?
Have we gone too far
with our troublesome ways
Will the return of olde petals
persever the cold weather
or
Must we witness an undoing
In the name of lost thoughts
Cumbersome, with flavor
so are the passing riots
Left behind to follow through
completing a perfect circle
In this ceremony of sorts
Pondering;
a most ridiculous approach
to resolving these affairs
We remenis
'what could have been'
Only to fall victim's of negligence ...

briefly
I've hit~up a few
& smoked~out a lot of ya
Hit the bong more
than
Hopper blow's a harmonica
Just
Holding-it-in
until I spout out in Algebra
Add fiddle's, more riddles
& many kind thoughts of ya
Saying 'Shalom'
Breaking bread with some baklava
Starting all over
low-down like it's 'Mardi Gras'
Running round these streets
cause
We like to party-hop
known to shock cities
just like that Lee Harvy shot
Crawl...

I want you to know;
Every masterpiece on the wall
Belongs to you
If only possible
this is what I would do
I would take one down
Bend, twist & fold
until it was round
& more precious than gold
I would compress all the colours
Into a glimmering stone
then politely ask:
If you will share my throne
Made from pure water's
to watch over & protect
Made in your honor
with love & respect
The beauty of our bond
Reflects in these jewels
& soon this...

I'm a man
of meager living
Tho, my courage
can reach the
Heavans
Still unable to explain;
What there is for me to learn
You know that all this
Business
Is no good for the Peace
Tho, it must be something
All of us shall face
Nothing will ever help
when everything is wrong
but if you think about the people
this World can be your home...

Everyday something different
tho, our fight's still the same
No jury to plea to
only judgment & shame
Still;
I'll serve you my circle
before I work in the cold
Making way for these memories
as I search through my soul
Oh!
Your intentions to rule me
Simply fall with the rain
Quenching my thirst
to rise from this pain
cause
the evidence won't fail me
when there's truth in your voice
All your negative accusations
amount to nothing but noise ...

We all are unique
Tho, no one is special
the same in many ways
but not made from a stencil
Cut from different cloth
as we sew our own suits
Made to fit with conviction
for when we run loose
cause;
Every soul sends a message
through thier moves
on this surface
Exuding a need
to serve our true purpose
Living out each second
In a meticulous manner
Managing to
distinguish ourselves
through posture & grammar
Gifted yet cherished
Each one...
