#LifeChangingMoment
Pivotal moments in life that change the way we think, and the course our life takes. Here you'll find poems about life defining moments.
When Love Fools You
I thought I had been
around and maybe I have
that's why
it is so hard for me
to understand why
every time I think of her
the pain only gets worse
then I have to realize
it wasn't her at all
I was
the one who was so dumb
not her...she only wanted
to have a little fun
I fell in Love
I learned Love can be a lot of things
and it isn't funny
when you are the one
who let's Love fool them
around and maybe I have
that's why
it is so hard for me
to understand why
every time I think of her
the pain only gets worse
then I have to realize
it wasn't her at all
I was
the one who was so dumb
not her...she only wanted
to have a little fun
I fell in Love
I learned Love can be a lot of things
and it isn't funny
when you are the one
who let's Love fool them

Misogyny Within Society
Dress like this,
Dress like that,
Don’t wear that in public at all,
Shave your arms,
Shave your legs,
Make sure you are a blank canvas,
For others to write rules,
For others to write regulations,
For others to write wage gaps,
For others to write “back handed compliments”
Yet if your canvas is damaged,
Left with no love or care,
You are left to repair it yourself,
Your canvas with rules from others,
Ruined because of non-consent,
You were a masterpiece once,
Ruined by the Misogyny,
Engrained...

Straight Talk Live (And Whose Tending To Your Mind)
As the say in life, it is quicker to sink then attempt to swim
This is my last in class assignment I will have until May, which is presenting an Oral Presentation in Adolescent Physiology after a PowerPoint presentation for another junior class with classmates asking questions.
Then as of next Monday, I will be doing field work... whereas, I will be participating in real time group sessions at a New York Forensic Mental Health Facility.
I expect not to find anyone from DUP as a new admitting psychiatric patient… okay that was joke.

Mt. Zion
Old nuns prattle speaking in tongue
mulling over god and devils, roll
stench of death climbs from floorboard creaks then croak
held under time
She the prayer pulled with might
ran out the ranks to circle file
Holy owned ointment twitching floor
eyes of large, mouth open
every syllable scripture, daring, old
Cowl embalmed
black and white
Sattan'as God
the never sents
hood wink in pride
She knew fervent
dips into the ether
true rapture
and the let down
of runners high
So...

IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE REAL
I PROMISE TO YOU...that I found in you someone that one person who is willing and able to be real with me. I PROMISE TO YOU...to respect that you are a woman someone precious as gold, someone to cherish and appreciate with deepness of emotions and feelings wrapped up in rare and real love. For if not for the kind of women's that you're where would I be as a man who was raise by a strong woman. I PROMISE TO YOU...to listen before I speak to get a clearer understanding of what, you are trying to communicate to me as a man, so as to have and to get me to understand your hurt and pain and...

50 Years a Knicks Fan
Truth is they've sucked for most of those years
I've always believed
Watch every game
True New York City suffering
I can finally wear the hat again
Walk down the street proud
Nobody throwing garbage at me
Yeah that shit happens here
Now they are getting better
Nods and fist bumps when I wear the hat
Winning or losing I root
New York City tried and true
I've always believed
Watch every game
True New York City suffering
I can finally wear the hat again
Walk down the street proud
Nobody throwing garbage at me
Yeah that shit happens here
Now they are getting better
Nods and fist bumps when I wear the hat
Winning or losing I root
New York City tried and true

HOW TO STAY MISERABLE
A Psy Professor once said
something I've never forgotten:
"Most people are about
as miserable as they choose to be."
Among all the miserable people
I have known, and there have been many,
there are numerous ways they
attract, keep, and pass misery on.
Here are a few ways you can
choose to be miserable:
* Be sure you try to please everybody,
every day, in every way.
* Be sure to never forgive, even
the slightest wrongs or hurts.
* Be sure to close your mind
to new ideas; old is always better.
* Be sure to stay...

liberty
.cast out
the outcast
realised
liberation
after
prolonged
delibration
love, bounds
and binds
yet
there exists
a space-time
there
too
how dumb.
listlessness
just a side, effect
of the birth
of freedom.

this bro-ken frame
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a
contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. Psalm 51:17
what will You have me do this day
while in his course the sun
illuminates tasks in my way
neglected and undone?
though stubborn raves my lack of care
and silent falls my voice
today You bid me live and dare
by purpose and by choice.
the breath i borrow for my life
so fleeting in its wake
cannot withstand the slightest strife
that circumstances make; ...

Wings
have grown, from torn shoulderblades.
Once desperate red-orange
skies, with its lacey tattered clouds release the past, embracing
the future through silent liturgy
Wisdom gained from
the harshness in life has layered me with a patina the burnished kind wrapping my hope in warm
confidence
Stored are my yesterday's
along with every tomorrow
I find no need to hold them
as I will live each day now
without regret or sorrow
Awakened, from my careless
carefree days of crushing
blossoms...
