Mike the Owl
Who’s that on the mic?
Ooh! It’s Mike the Owl!
And if you ask what’s he like –
I’d say with a growl that fowl is foul!
He doesn’t speak much but on the microphone his beak he can spit a sick beat,
Many times he has shown his rhythm and rhymes are a hoot and an absolute treat,
I’m talon you he’s like a beast released in the wild the way he feasts on emcees who’ve tried,
Because with one fell swoop he’ll whoop some ass then you too will be left wide eyed.
Mike the owl will look at you with a scowl and straight up ask if you want to rap...

As I Grow Old with Grays
The times are changing
As I grow old with grays
I’m busy rearranging
Closer to my last days –
The years go by faster
As I move a little slow
Not yet out to pasture
But I hear the wind blow –
The words escape me
As I write the truth
For all that shaped me
Withered away in youth –
I count every wrinkle
Claiming each as mine
But also see a twinkle
In the life I still define –
Then I begin to smile
I still have time
It might be a while
It may be my prime –
Nothing is...
As I grow old with grays
I’m busy rearranging
Closer to my last days –
The years go by faster
As I move a little slow
Not yet out to pasture
But I hear the wind blow –
The words escape me
As I write the truth
For all that shaped me
Withered away in youth –
I count every wrinkle
Claiming each as mine
But also see a twinkle
In the life I still define –
Then I begin to smile
I still have time
It might be a while
It may be my prime –
Nothing is...

Pickles
So here it is, you asked for a poem about pickles,
It will be a mess when it trickles down the microphone,
The jokes may be a little fickle and not as good as Don Rickles,
If you remember the old sicko who used to tickle people’s funny bones.
I expect to get paid a nickel for every time I rhyme,
So if you count in the previous line – that adds up to a dime,
And though I’m still wondering why you wanted a piece about a veggie,
I wasn’t sure if I could write something and make it a little edgy.
You know I don’t like them in my sandwiches or...

End of the World
In the days when hate and racism came more to light
Scientists spoke of a virus like end of the world prophets
But the rich and elite went against their advice out of spite
Because they were too focused on gains and profits
Then when governments began to crumble within
Weak leaders failed them as they died by the masses
While the privileged in their mansions sipped on gin
They helped build a bigger rift between the two classes
But this disease didn’t care about any social status
As it crept through every continent, nation and race ...

When the Sun Sets in the West
I’m grateful for the time that was given unto me,
For I know there will be a tomorrow
I’m glad others will live more days and continue
Knowing there’s no regret or sorrow.
And for this last day that I have left
I’d leave letters penned with my deepest thoughts
Not saying goodbye but rather live-
Live it like it’s your last for what life has brought
I’d give out hugs and long embraces
Filling familiar faces with genuine smiles and sighs
But I wouldn’t disclose my demise

Becoming One
Go back to the first time you ever laid
eyes on eachother, remember the electricity? Did you sense
the c o n n e c t i o n that was o n another level, did you revel in one
another’s presence as hearts beat in synchronicity? But for some of us the
emotion then takes on a journey, as i f traveling beyond the universe. W e begin
