Should I shave?
I wanted time to slow down so bad...
that now I have a beard since last year.

Grains Of Pleasure
Stalks are as tall as human beings,
Tassels are at the top,
Silks are red,
Ears are thick and green,
Waiting to be undressed,
Grains are of color of the sun,
Waiting to be roasted and chewed,
With a stout beer as a companion,
Whether it's wheat or corn or both,
You can never go wrong,
When you choose the grains,
Tassels are at the top,
Silks are red,
Ears are thick and green,
Waiting to be undressed,
Grains are of color of the sun,
Waiting to be roasted and chewed,
With a stout beer as a companion,
Whether it's wheat or corn or both,
You can never go wrong,
When you choose the grains,

Little Bird
You safely landed on a telephone line
But your tiny head keeps on budging
Perhaps because of paranoia
Or curiosity, who knows?
Will you please teach me how to fly?
But I would have to grow wings first
You would say
Or chirp
By the way, your chirping is like a sweet melody
You use that to impress females I know
Don’t you ever dare eating my crops
Or dropping one on me
But your tiny head keeps on budging
Perhaps because of paranoia
Or curiosity, who knows?
Will you please teach me how to fly?
But I would have to grow wings first
You would say
Or chirp
By the way, your chirping is like a sweet melody
You use that to impress females I know
Don’t you ever dare eating my crops
Or dropping one on me

Tunisian Neroli
Tunisian Neroli’s redolent
Blossom so distinguishable
White in harmony with yellow
Bee’s playground
Scent that gives comfort
Smell that sets minds at ease
Balm that is good for the soul
Blossom so distinguishable
White in harmony with yellow
Bee’s playground
Scent that gives comfort
Smell that sets minds at ease
Balm that is good for the soul

90's Weather
Remember when the sun wasn't aggressive?
Now the damage caused to planet earth is extensive
Melting of ice in north pole is progressive
Drought in some places had become expansive
To climate change we should be all reactive

Dancing In The Countryside
I was trying to dance to a song by Britney Spears
But I tripped and fell on a leaf of prickly pears
I was hurt to the point of shedding tears
And thought to myself maybe I needed a new set of rears

Ego
Ego is occluding
Arterial to
Weapons of peace
So a plan B
Is ought to be conceived
When ego is enemy
Standing as obstacle
In your way
Just like a hurdle to a horse
You have to be aware of it
Perception is also a key
So all those carrots you’ve ingested
Won’t let you be deceived
You’ll also have the high ground
Of being fast and non-linear
It doesn’t even matter
Whether or not you have constraints
That make you hobble
Just remember that ego’s charade
Is...

Agitated
The sound of the waves crashing is all I hear
A salty smell just hit my nose
The draft gently caressing my hair
There are no ships in sight
Why are you so agitated?
A salty smell just hit my nose
The draft gently caressing my hair
There are no ships in sight
Why are you so agitated?

Inductive Reasoning
Some people think that writing rhyming poems gives me limited possibilities
But the truth is that I believe in my capabilities
But the truth is that I believe in my capabilities

Equilibrium
Each and every one of us is scarce and unique like helium
That's why when we join forces we produce what's premium
We should all liberate ourselves from this delirium
That a black and a white man on the scale of humanity
Can never make equilibrium
That's why when we join forces we produce what's premium

The Blue
I love to see you when you’re calm
I have never been a fan of your fruits
But I wonder how many treasures you’re hiding
If I had to drown in you, I wish a whale could swallow me
I never went scuba-diving but I wish I had a submarine
Cramps is what I’m most afraid of when it’s adventure-time
Your breeze is so heavenly and would make anyone feel good
I have never been a fan of your fruits
But I wonder how many treasures you’re hiding
If I had to drown in you, I wish a whale could swallow me
I never went scuba-diving but I wish I had a submarine
Cramps is what I’m most afraid of when it’s adventure-time
Your breeze is so heavenly and would make anyone feel good

Nature's Beauty
What I'm seeing right now is so volatile
Therefore, capturing it is so worthwhile
It isn't in any way vile
The quantity of pictures that I'm stocking is a pile
For more of this, I would go an extra mile
Therefore, capturing it is so worthwhile
It isn't in any way vile
The quantity of pictures that I'm stocking is a pile
For more of this, I would go an extra mile
