Voodoo Dreams in Jackson Square
In Jackson Square I took a break,
From sharing stories for my project's sake.
Amidst the energy, I feel the past,
And walk through history voodoo bliss.
Recreating memories brings me Zen,
A sense of calm, a place to mend.
Within a month, this region will be complete,
And welcome all to step back in time with voodoo's sweet treat.
My gift, my magic, to bring the past alive,
A time machine for senses to thrive.
Come and feel the soul of New Orleans,
Where the past meets present in the city of voodoo dreams.
From sharing stories for my project's sake.
Amidst the energy, I feel the past,
And walk through history voodoo bliss.
Recreating memories brings me Zen,
A sense of calm, a place to mend.
Within a month, this region will be complete,
And welcome all to step back in time with voodoo's sweet treat.
My gift, my magic, to bring the past alive,
A time machine for senses to thrive.
Come and feel the soul of New Orleans,
Where the past meets present in the city of voodoo dreams.

Little Things
I sang in the shower today.
Now to some, that may not seem like much.
To me, it means everything.
Because once upon a time,
I found out that depression riddled my body.
It swarmed and infected me,
Resounding off the walls of my mind.
It scraped the memory bank,
Trudging around,
Littering ideas that I never thought I’d have.
There are days that coul- no, SHOULD be normal.
Instead I’m rendered immobile under the sheets.
And I get it, my sheets are comfy
But damn.
So yes, I sang in the shower today.
I...

Tank Girl and Furiosa
Can't hold a candle
They're knockoff
Proxy fantasies
You're a real life
Post apocalypse hero
You carry the world
Hardly anyone knows
Can't hold a candle
They're knockoff
Proxy fantasies
You're a real life
Post apocalypse hero

Shattering Stereotypes: A Journey of Healing, Resilience, and Determination
My journey has been an uphill battle, as I continue to face assumptions and stereotypes based on the profession I enjoyed for decades. My admiration for the women I worked with and the stage, still remains even though I have not performed on Big Daddy's stage since 2005, when Hurricane Katrina devastated my world and threw me back home which sent me into a deep depression with PTSD. It took me ten+ years of soul-searching and introspection to heal myself and confront the demons that forced me to leave home at 14.
My journey of healing and self-discovery has led me to honor the...

A Girl
Cold as the heart you hold
It's been years and tears brought nothing
Clutch the blade and beg for forgiveness
Nothing but regret and memories
Took your life to find your place
Gave your life away to any taker
Spend your time on jokes and sarcasm
Cover the scar with another tattoo
Eyes as blue as the ocean many have drowned in
A heart as big as the world you destroy
Fire in your soul, ice in your veins
You could be, you could be so much more
If you reached for me
If you called to me
Even out of desperation ...
It's been years and tears brought nothing

A heart as big as the world you destroy
Fire in your soul, ice in your veins
You could be, you could be so much more
If you reached for me
If you called to me

an empty room
Sunlight comes through in a strong singular ray
Alighting the stark white walls with a lively vigor
So strong it draws out the hints of sherbet orange
Buried deep in the color of sun bleached white
My mind fills the small space with two perfect ideas
A modest bed covered in heavy cloud soft blankets
Entirely too many pillows impossible to escape
A perfect hiding place for those who need respite
But then I imagine a room featuring my claw foot table
A dark navy velvet table cloth shimmering in the sunlight
Draped over in such a moody yet...

Ghost Writer
'passion burns within
fire flows from veins to pen
it's my form of zen''
i push pen with passion and purpose
puncturing paper until i burn through wormholes
hidden in plain/plane sight
the best damn disappearing act ever i swear
i'm now of the dearly departed
a ghost playin host to a wild assortment of vibes
no longer of the lost and found
i found what i lost..i exhaust all options
traveling while sitting still...channeling the will
thru a scribble...scribble...stab...stab
...eye dip..dip...dab the quill... ...

Thoughts
Everything is blanded with the years
Sexual relationships
Friendship
Favorite places
Travels
Poetry to my surprise is the only thing that remains wet.
It is still sex with emotion.

HERO
your words
strung line by line
like pearls
catching what little light
there was
and i sported them
as though they were mine
and how jealous
i was of those
you would gift
just as you had gifted me
so that i was
just another
strung line by line
like pearls
catching what little light
there was
and i sported them
as though they were mine
and how jealous
i was of those
you would gift
just as you had gifted me
so that i was
just another

Follow your Dreams
I've always been involved with beautiful women
The more beautiful, the more troubled
I was pretty good looking I guess when I was younger
I was troubled too
Beauty has a price
I didn't follow my dreams then
I'm trying now
The more beautiful, the more troubled
I was pretty good looking I guess when I was younger
I was troubled too
Beauty has a price
I didn't follow my dreams then
I'm trying now

Trap Queen
A little girl young and fragile. Weak to the bones, Light as a feather.
Taken away from her family at 4.
Filled to the core with hurt and anger she grew,
Standing by her she has a crowd of “fans”,
The flow of daily compliments come flowing in message after message,
The little girl who was never noticed, who was so innocent,
The flow of history has corrupted her,
The daughter of crip born into the danger of the hood,
The ghetto is woven into her DNA
Overcoming the danger, moving into a better neighborhood,
Leaving her childhood behind growing...
Taken away from her family at 4.
Filled to the core with hurt and anger she grew,
Standing by her she has a crowd of “fans”,
The flow of daily compliments come flowing in message after message,
The little girl who was never noticed, who was so innocent,
The flow of history has corrupted her,
The daughter of crip born into the danger of the hood,
The ghetto is woven into her DNA
Overcoming the danger, moving into a better neighborhood,
Leaving her childhood behind growing...
