POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write what comes to my mind.
The Conductor of His Life
What is a man
Who has lost it all
Nothing of assets
He can call his own
Only the bottle in his hands
Of something strong
To him opening the top
Erases all is wrong
In a drunkard state
He finally escapes
Until soberness arises
And he abruptly awakes
In the same position
The same chair he sits
The same problems he had
Still he lays in the same bed he had made
Lost within the mind
Thinking mind altering substances
Could fast forward him through his struggling times
Not being himself
He repeatedly...

Mean Ain't It
Our whole lives
We work so hard to provide
A life
To pave a way for our kids
For them to see
If they don't work
They won't eat
From an early age
We learned
That money was the key
To all happiness
Stay in school
Work hard
Go to college
And choose a career
That not only benefit you
But the Government too
The more you make
The more taxes they take
Government slaves
Is all we are to them
And nowadays
Kids skipping out on school
College enrollment
Is slowly falling
No...

An Image Without Strength
To see and do
Gets mis-contrued
When others
Bite too much
Then they can chew
Doing what
Others may do
Thinking they
Can do the same
Without any
Strength being used
Staying in their lanes
Is hard to achieve
When everyday
Walking straight they can't
Copying off others
Makes them believe
Their lives don't stink
When in a crowded room
Not even one soul
Believes this is true
Gets mis-contrued
When others
Bite too much
Then they can chew
Doing what
Others may do
Thinking they
Can do the same
Without any
Strength being used
Staying in their lanes
Is hard to achieve
When everyday
Walking straight they can't
Copying off others
Makes them believe
Their lives don't stink
When in a crowded room
Not even one soul
Believes this is true

Forever My Fantasy
A pedestal
May I sit you upon
For you are so beautiful
Yes you are
God must've pre-planned ahead
When he created you
No flaw has been seen
In my noticing view
You have maintained yourself well
Can I get a drink
From your hidden bottle of youth
When you walk into a room
All the young men reply
Baby you are fine
You are definitely a dime
Always in my mind
How I wish you were mine
Never would you forget
How special you are
I'd cater to you in bed
Exceeding all your expectations of your needs ...

A Friendship Connection
I, myself
Middle age
With an old soul
My eyes stay open
For an older woman whom
I can share my inner thoughts
A few I've connected with
But deep inside
My heart never opened up
Til my mind was awakened
To a strong magnificent lady
A magnanimous woman
My eyes had conceived
What does age mean
As I look at her
From head to toe
But I get trapped
In her baby doll eyes
Very beautiful, indeed
So beautiful in fact
Like the most precious diamond in the world
I will never get to hold
Or...

A Night to Die
An eerie feeling
Has came over me
As the night sky
I can't even see
A thick fog
Covers me
But yet
I'm still in my backyard
Feeling like a stranger
In an unknown place
Is it....
A night to die
Who have I crossed
Or even said a mean word
I live out in the sticks
More than animal eyes
Can be watching me
I try to stay calm
But something
Has came over me
Is this my time
A night to die
Just a little while ago
I woke up from
A couple hours of sleep
Nothing strange
But...

I Will Die Lonely
No ties
No reasons to lie
Come home
Be free as can be
When young
Cheating
Breaking precious hearts
With no feelings
Onto the next
I kept
Two to three on speed dial
For my perverted pleasure
But now
Karma
Has got its grips on me
Now ten years older
I can't believe
The monster I was
I get lonely
With no one to feel
I had a special
Unique woman in my life
But I couldn't keep it real
So she left
And damnit
I truly know why
Selfish ...

I Am Through
Where do I begin
When relationships
Involving me
Seems to end
When every woman
Thinks I don't care
I work so hard
To be who I am
Spending time
I do on command
But even that
Is not good enough
So I play catch up
Only catching hell
The short end of the stick
I always get
Hearing women say
Fuck you Chuck
Now that has become the new norm
No matter what is done
I leave as the villian
Killing women feelings
When I keep it real with them
No lies or made up stories

A Magnanimous Woman
In her eyes
I see greatness
In her eyes
I see determination and drive
Also in those eyes
I see the struggle
Of many, many years ago
That others would had faltered
But she
Stood strong
Looked adversity in the face
To walk away
To enjoy brighter days
And today
In her eyes I see
A magnanimous woman
She is to me
Never could I
Ever find a duplicate
Because she
Is such a rarity
Truthfully
She's in a class by herself
And the men she lets in her life
Let me be the one to tell ...

The Battle Within Me
A moment of silence
Please
For me
As life has took a turn
For the worst
But I'm still strong
Physically able to carry on
And mentally stable
To support not only I
But my mother whom
Looks up to her only son
For advice
As my father
Fights for his life
As the cancer
Threatens to take the happiness
I desperately try to hold
My relationships
Are in shambles
Yes relationships with an "s"
Why must I continue to talk
To different people of the opposite sex
Not just one
I can hold unto...
