Reigning
Can you stop the rain?
I bring the thunder
Roaring and intimidating
I’m close and yet far away
Clock me
I’m moving in
With a hurricane of passion
It’s calm, be patient
It’s glorious for earth’s sake
I’ll bring the storm
Hail and rain
Sleet and snow
Cover yourselves
Ye unshielded
By life’s trials
I bring the rainbows
A covenant of peace
I’ll burn away all that is unlike me
Of love
True love
I’ll leave you unfiltered
Naked and true
My originals
Will live forever
Crowned in my...

Namaste
Namaste
Liberation
Freedom
O Woman
Come outta darkness
Of your mind
Full of deceptions
Of your voice
Keeping you in that rut
Denying the convictions in your guts
Your intestinal track
Of life digestion
Don’t return to your mess
Casting your pearls
Before the swine of your intentions
I’ll do it another day
Turn into another day
Of a rat race turned marathon
Keep running to exhaustion
With those bags on your back
She said pack light
You’re going somewhere
Nowhere...

Tree of Eden
O African tree
O Tree, it was never planted
Gave birth to our natural world
Good and evil
Knowledge and wisdom
O tree of my pride lands
Feeding my nature
Watering my pastures
Yielding all the fruits for my children’s children
Girt up my loins
With the fervor of the prophets
One with He
Or She…
That cast the stars overhead
Laid the seas
8th wonder of the world
Is me
O Tree
I’m humbled as I set under you extensions
High as the sky
Close to the earth
Covering and hovering
My Godhead
I respect your crown...

Twinkle, Twinkle
Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are…
A comet racing across the sky
Mistaken for a jet plane
How I wonder what you are
A wish, a hope, a dream
I’ll reach you one day
Riding a rainbow
To your pot of gold’s end
I’ll reach you one day
Connect the dots of my life’s constellations
Revelations
Animation- how this life’s unfolded
It’ll all make sense one day
When I’m tap dancing with Orion’s Belt
Galaxies of unknown nations
Nationalities
UFO’s, the greatest mysteries
Of giants whose visited me in my sleep...

My Fever
I don’t want a quickie…
Just a hit
To fix my itch
No
I don’t want a quickie
In the backseat of my Mitsubishi
Fold front for more trunk space
Tinted windows, no one’ll see a thang
But love, I don’t want a quickie
I need you to feel me…
Lay down and lay me down
Spread my legs
Wide and far
Taste of the nectar
Long and deep
Like the sea
Mighty as the Mississippi, River
They’ll hear our moans in Missouri
Show me, state
Show me, how bad you want me
Lip lapping
Tongue wagging
Drinking of my love’s passion

My Fearful Addiction
Torn
Amazed
Illuminated
Afraid
Beaten
Worn
I got to have it
I’m addicted
Chemically
Emotionally
Dependent
To the poison of your choice
Your love, your words
You ignite something in me
I’m afraid
To feel this, that you do to me
Addicted
No AA exists
No NA found
To talk about
My name is nobody
And I am an addict
Amazed
Illuminated
Afraid
Beaten
Worn
I got to have it
I’m addicted
Chemically
Emotionally
Dependent
To the poison of your choice
Your love, your words
You ignite something in me
I’m afraid
To feel this, that you do to me
Addicted
No AA exists
No NA found
To talk about
My name is nobody
And I am an addict

I Got Too High
I got too high…
Im talkin' all I could do is lay down
I was amongst family friends
Friends like family
And maan I got too high
Like potent, that ganga had marinated
Since Bob Marley wrote it
In the sky…like Jah
Take the wheel
I got too high
Like when your inner man start talkin' to ya
Coaching for ya
To come down- now
I got too high
Laughs, good jokes, talkin' shit
On that back porch bench
Taking in the scenery, star filled clouds
Like I hope the cops don’t see me
But they can’t find me
Man I got too high
And I...
Im talkin' all I could do is lay down
I was amongst family friends
Friends like family
And maan I got too high
Like potent, that ganga had marinated
Since Bob Marley wrote it
In the sky…like Jah
Take the wheel
I got too high
Like when your inner man start talkin' to ya
Coaching for ya
To come down- now

# TRUTH
Truth behind the hashtag is that we all wanna be had
To have and to hold
A truth to unfold
We do
If we stay true…to who we are
No scapegoats, no hidin’, no fakin’ n jakin’ until ya makin’ it
Computer screens, phone scenes
The truth behind the hashtag is that we all got something to prove
Insta-gram, insta-pleasure, insta in an instant
Fleeting and I know nothing of tweeting
Missing out on what truly matters,
That mother I refuse to speak to
My brother sitting across the room
Engulfed in pain
Hashtag
This young man’s a lame
And...

The Ancestors Are Watching
THE ANCESTORS ARE WATCHING
THE ANCESTORS ARE WATCHING...
EVERY TRANSGRESSION AGAINST THE EARTH WE MAKE...
EVERY TEAR WE CAUSE OUR BROTHERS TO SHED...
EVERY CHILD NEGLECTED...
EVERY FAMILY TORN...
THE ANCESTORS ARE WATCHING...
AND THEY KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS, IF WE DON'T FOLD
GIRT UP OUR LOINS, FIGHT, PRAY, LOVE...ONE ANOTHER
SHE WEEPS FOR US, REFUSE SLEEP FOR US, LIKE A WOMAN IN TRAVAIL, THERE'S NO CONSOLING HER, NO REASONING WITH HER
BECAUSE THIS IS NOT HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE...
WEEPING AND WAILING, AND GNASHING OF TEETH
OUR SPIRITS...

Redbull
bitter winds, rushing
thunder echos like tyrants of old
rain that rings like bee stings
pounding against my will
crumbling my detemination
I look up to no avail...
it's too cold outside for angels to fly...
my prayers, I know, don't fall on deaf ears
for He is, who He says He is...
as I reminice...
His face shown over the shadows of the ocean's deep
moved gracefully on those volcanic bottoms
soaring as He flung the galaxies like country rocks on a pond
popped stars like rocks...blew His breath they call the Big Bang so....

A Letter From the Valley
that's how strong my love is
I'm not a man, that I should lie
nor the son of man, that I have to repent
that's how strong my love is
my life is poetry
with style and grace...
I parade
with horns and cymbals
beats of my own drum
one-man band
can't nobody tell me shit
and it definetly don't stink
but is of heavenly gardens
the excess of my mess...LOL
I'm done but for real
I make roses grow from concrete
lillies pop up in desert valleys
where the red fern grows
pastures liken to Eden, my love
made for you and me...

Love Without Tragedy
WHAT'S LOVE WITHOUT TRAGEDY?
WITHOUT FIRE
WITHOUT PASSION
WITHOUT TROUBLE
WITHOUT TURMOIL
WITHOUT ROLLERCOASTERS
WITHOUT HIGHS
WITHOUT LOWS
WITHOUT PAIN
WITHOUT GROWTH
WITHOUT INSPIRATION
WITHOUT DIVINITY
LITTLE GIRLS GROW UP WITH DREAMS OF FAIRY TALES, HAPPILY EVER AFTERS
AND ARE SOLELY DISAPPOINTED WHEN THEIR KNIGHT DOESN'T COME
THEIR KING IS LATE AND SHE'S CONFUSED
HE SHOWS UP WITH HIS PANTS SAGGIN WITH UGLY LANGUAGE AND 3 F'S
WHAT IS THIS...? LOVE? I SEE...
THAT BLACKENS MY EYES
TEAR STAINS MY FACE
SUNGLASS...
