POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I've written how I feel about life and loves since the age of 14. Am I published? Not yet. Working on my fear of failure I guess. I pray that my words will inspire during my visit here.
A Standing Ovation
Looking forward to hearing his voice once in a while.
Thinking of our conversations together makes me smile.
I've watched you for a long time comin,
Although I've pegged you a coward
For not following through on all this lovin.
Daydreams can't warm my bed at night.
They say out of mind when out of sight.
My heart won't allow me to believe any of that
Because at any moment you cross my mind
That is a fact.
I pull out my emotions from time to time,
I re-examine, re-organize, re-prioritize them...

Addicted to What May Be...
Start it off slow...
A few quiet conversations
Expressing to one another
Our love expectations.
A tentative date for dinner.
Praying with all my heart
That he's not just a contender
But a real winner.
A man I look forward to being with
A man who feels the same about me.
I am addicted to
Addicted to what may be...
Spending time together
Building upon a steady foundation.
Through a firm friendship
We walk each other through the demolition
Of past hurts...

I am addicted to
Addicted to what may be...

Building upon a steady foundation.
Through a firm friendship
We walk each other through the demolition

A Poem For My God
In less than 12 hours, I have received 2 requests for prayer and a death announcement...
On my way home, I decided to start a conversation with my Father, but my fingers began to itch and my brain started to burn.
I will start out by charging satan to FALL BACK, because there is NO ROOM for him in this talk!
Father God,
I THANK YOU!
I thank you for articulation of my speech and movement of my limbs.
I THANK YOU!
For reaching maturity. Showing me things in my life that brought forth Knowledge, Understanding and Appreciation....

Black Son
Your brand of dignity is quiet.
Your Godliness cannot be missed.
The need for bravado is lost on you.
Because you've never confused humility with humiliation.
You are a black son born of black moon.
Your brilliance is sometimes confused with the sun's rays.
Your smile warms my heart.
You are worthy of this world's praise.
Because your stride contests your assurance and understanding.
You are a black son born of a black moon.
Spirituality is achieved from peace.
You contemplate each move you...

Ode From Daddy's Girl
I want you to explore every crevice of my poetry in motion leaving nothing untouched, licked, or fondled.
Using only the skills and knowledge you've gained over the years listening to a woman's needs.
I love how you slowly caress my body raising the hairs on the back of my neck while my back arches into an unfamiliar curve dying to reach the peak of maximum pleasure.
As I approach the landing zone, you'll pull back basking in my desire to want more and more.
The way I want to make love to your mind only increases the sperm race to be first to flow from...

Why Do You Want Me?
Ask me a question and I will answer you...
Can you do the same?
I want you for your strong arms,
Broad shoulders,
Your wide chest
And your big hands to comfort and hold me....
I want you for your beautiful lips
To kiss my lips
Face,
Neck
and body.
To show me I am your woman.
I want you for your hips and legs
So I can wrap mine around them.
Intertwine with you so completely
That noone can see where mine begin and yours end.
I want you for your heart.
To Accept
Return,
And Share our love.
Nurture it and cultivate it...

Listen The f**k To Me!
I will stand before you, naked and unashamed.
To show you I come under no false pretenses.
I am confused by “Mankind”, “The Brotherhood”.
The beating of your chests,
Your Kunta Kinte, Mandingo mentality.
I hear you brother…
You say women are too independent.
We’ve usurped your position in the household.
I step back as a woman in the acceptance of submission.
I look to you as my Protector and my Provider.
I trust in your word when you say, “Baby, I got you.”
I trust that when you said it’s taken care of, it is done.
I trust that you take YOUR...
