POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Im just a man married to a goddess queen raising queens to be.
Demon inside
My love for this world is gone.
The dark is all I knew.
You took my light from me.
To the deities, Fuck You
You took my sanity.
You destroyed my peace.
Everything I loved lay deceased.
Now my pain don't cease
Fuck it take me I'm done
The dark is all I knew.
You took my light from me.
To the deities, Fuck You
You took my sanity.
You destroyed my peace.
Everything I loved lay deceased.
Now my pain don't cease
Fuck it take me I'm done

The dream is over
My heart is broken.
My light has gone.
You was everything.
I'm left alone.
I loved you Liz.
I'll love you forever and always.
Heaven called you home.
No longer my angel to hear my praise.
I'll forever cling to your memory.
Today I lost my dreams.
I'll stay strong for our children.
Inside devastated screams.
My light has gone.
You was everything.
I'm left alone.
I loved you Liz.
I'll love you forever and always.
Heaven called you home.
No longer my angel to hear my praise.
I'll forever cling to your memory.
Today I lost my dreams.
I'll stay strong for our children.
Inside devastated screams.

The damned
I don't make excuses for who I am.
I have seen I'm one that is damned.
I'm no hero.
I don't think I'm a villain.
Or am I anything at all.
Dreams say I'm condemned.
My thoughts say I'm cursed.
My wife says I'm forgiven.
My children's laughter says I can get repentance.
Not sure I deserve it.
World has sent more ways to kill me.
Yet here I stand.
I'm no demon, I'm no angel, am I even a man?
I have seen I'm one that is damned.

Not sure I deserve it.

Yet here I stand.
I'm no demon, I'm no angel, am I even a man?

History repeats
Born hated, but unwaivered the man was strength.
Notameohmésêhese father and Congolese mother.
Born 1927, he fought his way in this world.
Unchanged he fought on his way out.
My father was a very proud man.
Military hated him, only a cook negros can't see.
My father pushed through the ignorance.
Made his career where he wasn't even excepted in a country that refused to except him.
Very proud of his accomplishments.
He instilled in me not to allow others to decide who I am.
When I was in prison, only tear I ever seen him cry

Me
I don't know the men trying to kill me.
I don't know these men I kill.
No I'm sitting in the moonlight.
Not even sure how I feel.
Is God ashamed.
Is my faith even real.
The devils not to blame here.
Man has created more evil than he.
So long in hell.
Not sure anyone can save me.
Beautiful family I don't deserve.
Sins I pray yall never see.
I'm a lost cause. Dancing in the shadows of what should be. Can someone please say what the fuck is wrong with me.

Last of the Devils Brigade
The stance in the dark.
Seems different in the light.
Even my shadow seems opaque.
Have I found more clarity.
Have I just found peace in a moment.
Have I finally made my way completely home.
Do I still shed tears in hell peering into heaven.

Barbaric Prayer
Swords clash, frightening times.
Life and death way on both minds.
They fight each other strictly as told.
Small part they feel bonded in soul.
Whom is this one we call enemy.
Leaders have problems but you done none to me
Neither allowed to relinquish
Possible their family will vanquish.
What a foolish game to play.
Not a word to say.
Wounds bleeding out.
Looser falls in a bloody shout.
Victor now stands sickened by the deed.
On to the next battle proceeds.
Where are these brave...

Mo chroí grámhar
Is breá liom ach tú.
Tá mo chroí fíor duit.
Do bhandia mo lae. mo bhanríon go deo.
Ní féidir leat ach mo phaisean a scaoileadh.
Lig dom do liopaí a bhlaiseadh arís dul ar meisce ar do uachtar lavish.
Tá m'anam measctha leat ach is leatsa mo chroí.

My Kelli Elizaheth
When I look into your eyes.
I know what I must do.
To hell with heaven
If I can't have you.
I've danced with the devil.
Fist fought angels.
Just to hold you.
I'd kick open gates in every hell.
You are precious.
No can dispute.
With all that dwells in me.
I will always love you.
I know what I must do.

No can dispute.
With all that dwells in me.
I will always love you.

The strandhills
I awaken in the vault.
Deep in the heart of the strandhills.
Place brought me heaven and hell.
Standing the cliffs watching sails.
Ireland you'll always be my home of origin.
Also where most of my tears dwells.
I've danced with the devil on rainy nights.
Stood helpless watching witches cast spells.
Colombia is my home now.
I bid you bitter farewells.

Truth as I see it
World full of hypocrisy.
Killing ourselves hidden guillotine.
I came from struggle.
I lived in strife.
World painting pictures of a vartious blight.
Men aren't allowed to be men.
Castrating us brings life to an end.
Or maybe I was right im truly condemned.
Made a few friends but more enemies.
Feeling like maybe I'm just a disease.
Behind closed doors plot genocides.
While they carve artwork from our hide.
More than political, biblical, drenched in blood philosophical.
World gone crazy acting ignorant and wild....

Happy holidays
Merry Christmas to you and yours,
Happy Kwanza, happy Hanukkah, and more.
Is a time to love one another time to adore.
To every single one on every single shore.
Happy holidays from castle del Reedus
