POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
The odometer of my life is hidden from me which has me worrying about my legacy Is my existence a part of an eternal plan or am i just leaving temporary footprints in the sand Either way even if it is just spam i write therefore i am

Hidden Agenda
The MSM is owned by Wealth White Men
and many of their stories belong in a trash bin
On a real topic
they are often Myopic
And on the wrong ones too grandiose
and way too verbose
They cover Presidential elections like a horse race
but, many times get wrong who's in first place
Because they need controversy
and are afraid of Trump bc he will show them no mercy
They will have you believe that Sugar is Splenda
don't get fooled by the MSM's-Hidden Agenda
and many of their stories belong in a trash bin
On a real topic
they are often Myopic
And on the wrong ones too grandiose
and way too verbose

My 1970's-Chicago
Watched movies at UA, Oriental and McVickers
the rats lived on crumbs from my snickers
Films about pimps, drug dealers and a Black private dick
they drove caddy's, wore furs, leathers and talked slick
Back in real world was "Nam", Watergate and Nixion's dirty tricks
and 2 World Championships for the Knicks
Apollo 13 never landed on the moon
and NASA killed the project way too soon
Drank Boone's Farm and Ripple
Watched Roberto Clemente who rarely hit a triple
Bought stacked heel from Flagg Brothers ...

Real Talk
My people perish for lack of knowledge of self
and our true history is not on their library's shelf
Our modern music misleads our youth
with prevented versions of the truth
So they turn to booze, weed, coke and dope
instead of finding betters ways to cope
Or they join gangs which are our resident evil
and become pawns in our spiritual upheaval
Princes and Principalities are the real puppet masters
and the architects of all man made disasters
I know how difficult it is to "walk the walk"
and that all...

Love Will Win The Day (Prayers for Orlando)*
Hate wins another round
50 bodies shot dead on the ground
A disgrace to the true believers of the Muslim religion
a message from the devil delivered by a subhuman carrier pigeon
Our hearts today in America are cloudy and gray
but, GOD’s greatest gift-Love will eventually win the day
50 bodies shot dead on the ground

The Proof is in the Pudding*
US politicians are pitching a new dream they make sound so inviting
but, none of them will to give us a warranty for it in writing
We all want to be happy, safe and free
but, that does not come with a money back guarantee
Can it be returned, if with it we are not completely excited
or if it goes badly are they hoping we will be too tried to fight it
The old folks taught me back in the day
“The proof is in the pudding”, they would say
but, none of them will to give us a warranty for it in writing
We all want to be happy, safe and free
but, that does not come with a money back guarantee
Can it be returned, if with it we are not completely excited
or if it goes badly are they hoping we will be too tried to fight it
The old folks taught me back in the day
“The proof is in the pudding”, they would say

Ethnic Bias
More attention must be placed on Haiti, Darfur and the Congo
About this MSM should be beating their drums but won't even beat a bongo
We need more news about these nightmare scenarios
In our Newspapers, Magazines and on TV's and Stereo's
Starvation, Genocide, Sex Trafficking and Rape
These issues need to spotlighted on live but we can't even get it on video tape
On these stories they pass on by us
and continue playing their games of-Ethnic Bias

Negative Programing
The music that one hears
imitates the movement of the spheres
It moves us emotionally, intellectually and sexually
It replays in our minds perpetually
Lyrics to songs should be poetic and prophetic
not idiotic, psychotic or demonic
If music is the soundtrack to human life?
why on each other are we using a gun or a knife?
Disharmony is not a part of the grand design
set in motion on this planet by the divine
Discordance comes from an outside source
and allows evil on this earth to run its course
...

Step by Step
romance began by destiny defining our lane
Side my side we moved on the same plane
I led and you did follow
In good times and in sorrow
Even when life gave us a surprise dip
We glided together and never did we trip
Love is a dance we learn-step by step
Through life's twist and turns- step by step
(Repeat)
The world caused our minds to spin
but in the end we did win
Two hearts-as one- dancing Freestyle
Soul 2 Soul -sharing a single smile
In spite of Fate's inconstancy we stride
You...
Side my side we moved on the same plane
I led and you did follow
In good times and in sorrow
Even when life gave us a surprise dip
We glided together and never did we trip
Love is a dance we learn-step by step
Through life's twist and turns- step by step
(Repeat)
The world caused our minds to spin
but in the end we did win
Two hearts-as one- dancing Freestyle
Soul 2 Soul -sharing a single smile
In spite of Fate's inconstancy we stride
You...

FAITH
FAITH
IS:
an ability to believe in things yet to be seen
the gift of imagining what is possible
and the fortitude to overlook the improbable
the cornerstone of the human spirit
and the eternal flame of our souls

Deja Vu
It appears that the some ghosts of 1968
have come back to procreate
KKK marches, Campus unrest, millions in the streets in protests
it all brings back old memories I must confess
Another close American Pres. election where the Neo Fascist candidate won
leaves me with a feeling like a bitter Chicago winter with weeks with no sun
I don't know about you
but, for me it is all Deja Vu
have come back to procreate
KKK marches, Campus unrest, millions in the streets in protests
it all brings back old memories I must confess
Another close American Pres. election where the Neo Fascist candidate won
leaves me with a feeling like a bitter Chicago winter with weeks with no sun
I don't know about you
but, for me it is all Deja Vu

Final Battle*
Final Battle*
I have worn many hats and played many parts
and made numerous costume changes in my various roles
Sadly, first hand one day I will know "for whom the bell tolls"
until then I will cherish the good in a bad day if I have any smarts
In this lifetime, I have learn a few things
like the fact all 7 billion of us are flawed human beings
And when my back is against the wall
my best move is to drop my knees and pray to stand tall
that the written words of fools and sages
both begin on...
