POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
How Come?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID TO WALK DOWN THE STREET?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID TO DO INTO A GAS STATION TO GET SOMETHING TO EAT?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID TO LET MY LITTLE BROTHER PLAY WITH FRIENDS IN THE PARK?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID TO WALK OUTSIDE MY HOUSE AFTER DARK?
HOW COME I CAN'T WEAR MY HOOD?
HOW COME I HAVE TO DIE IN THE LAST PLACE I STOOD?
HOW COME I HAVE TO DIE IN A CELL?
HOW COME I HAVE TO RUN FROM THE BULLET AS IT LEAVES ITS SHELL?
HOW COME I GOT SHOT 137 TIMES IN MY CAR?
HOW COME 13 CLEVELAND POLICE OFFICERS SHOT ME FROM AFAR?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID...
HOW COME I'M AFRAID TO DO INTO A GAS STATION TO GET SOMETHING TO EAT?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID TO LET MY LITTLE BROTHER PLAY WITH FRIENDS IN THE PARK?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID TO WALK OUTSIDE MY HOUSE AFTER DARK?
HOW COME I CAN'T WEAR MY HOOD?
HOW COME I HAVE TO DIE IN THE LAST PLACE I STOOD?
HOW COME I HAVE TO DIE IN A CELL?
HOW COME I HAVE TO RUN FROM THE BULLET AS IT LEAVES ITS SHELL?
HOW COME I GOT SHOT 137 TIMES IN MY CAR?
HOW COME 13 CLEVELAND POLICE OFFICERS SHOT ME FROM AFAR?
HOW COME I'M AFRAID...

Mother!!
Goes by the name Kim
As graceful as a Sunday morning hymn.
Independent as the American Eagle.
She’s as strong as the ironwood tree.
As sweet as her homemade pound cake.
Warm as a cozy winter night.
Mother!!
Smart, Loving, Beautiful.
She’ll make every state suitable.
Wise as a serpent and as harmless as a dove.
Giving everyone the same tender love.
She’s the back bone of the family.
She handles every situation calmly.
She’s stressed but she’s blessed.
Mother!!
She’s picks us up when we’re down.

His Name Is Jordan!!
He holds you down like the ‘RIVER JORDAN’.
As peaceful as the singing birds in dawns first light.
So joyous as a hymn on gospel Sunday.
He is as calming as April showers and May flowers.
Happy as a little kid with a new toy.
Handsome as the day his mother welcomed him into this world.
He goes by the name Jordan!!
Heavenly sent by our Almighty Father.
He’s as sweet Hershey Kisses.
Forever loyal to his future Mrs.
His name is Jordan!!

No worries, best believe he’ll make everything okay.

Love Is...
Love is waking up with you on my mind.
Love is lifting you up when you fall behind.
Love is staying with you until you sleep.
Love is wiping your eyes every time you weep.
WHAT IS LOVE?
Love is having people who care about you.
Love is forever and always being true.
Love is constantly fighting for what’s yours.
Love is not fucking with these other whores.
Love is being your biggest supporter.
Love is giving me your last quarter.
WHAT IS LOVE?
Love is showing you loyalty.
Love is treating you like you’re royalty. ...
