Momma
Momma Had it rough
when I was growing up
four kids and a habit
When things were bad
She always had to have it
But Jesus was her lord and savior
so she made it to heaven
that I know for sure
If God
Can save an angel
with a broken wing
Then i know
there's still Hope
For a sinner
like me..
After all my sins,
the devil still
aint found a way to win.
If there's a reason
I made it through
all my trauma..
It was because
of one special...

Dare Not Raise My Sight And Ask How And Why
It is my time one other lesson to learn
And see through pain truths that me burn
In life nothing for granted is to gain
To wage wars against kismet is vain
Or think to a life through me I could belong
And own the right to show right from wrong
One other lesson despite what I am of age
To reconsider what I feel and think is sage
So humble to God that I dare not lament and whine
I just have to bow and ask not to be a soul of no spine
Rather able to endure what makes a backbone bend
Not a human of fake strength trying to...

Time Wasted
I dodged a bullet
Even though it hurts
I know it’s gon’ get worse
Slipped so low
You got to know your worth
No matter where you go
Feel so lonely and cold
I had to open up my heart, just for it to grow
Lost my uncle when I was eight
I ain’t been the same since
Heart so cold, I don’t know where to begin
I had to look within, never losing my passion again
Pain struck deep, made me the person I am
Said we’re better off as friends
But I can’t do that again
I respect you
I don’t hate you
But my heart has to...

Life Moves On
Please,
It’s gon’ take more to check me
I am her and she is me
Please come correct when speaking on me
His love comes in three
Holy Trinity
Protect my energy
Can’t see you as my enemy
It’s gon’ take more to get rid of me
Our love is history
Know you think of me
When she’s not in the vicinity
Obsessed with my masculinity and my femininity
Using me for publicity
I don’t understand the negativity
But I promise to be honest
You can save the toxicity
No sympathy for infinity and beyond
It’s...

Recapturing
Christmas has passed,
and the new year approaches.
I encroach upon you
with a belated text.
The pretext is the weather
to remind you
of everything we have been through.
The snow was our serenity.
Snowflakes fall, and I
want you to know that I walk
for blocks in the symphony
of the busy streets alone.
I have a bittersweet
but upbeat feeling reading your reply.
You have established roots
where it does not snow.
Still, I hope the fruits of your labor
are savored and receive water from the oasis.

Modernization? Will monarchical waving become extinct then, if George becomes King? Lol!
By Stanley Collymore
Another fawning and asininely
ridiculous story by so-called
but always nameless royal
experts and an obvious indication that
it's all concocted speculation without
basically a solitary shred of any real
pertinent relevance! But there are a
surfeit of racist Karens and largely
too azoospermiac Gammons plus
serfs; literally sycophantic and so
naturally proud of it subjects and
quite braindead plebeians willing
to unquestionably simply believe
what's very undeniably obviously ...

The Mountain, Shrine of Sacred Feelings
The Mountain shrine of Euterpe
As i muse upon yester times, the mountains as holly shrine, the forest, with thicker pines, with birds joyous in the sunshine, playing with kids at the age of mine. careless in the eighties.......
Beyond the hill top, a pitch was so green, and the sheep herds graze on grassy meads; and the fields stretch, as far as a child eye can reach.................
As i muse on yesteryear, and the cheerful songs float out like celestial hymns from the school, i hear pupils playing hopscotch, hide and seek, cheers...

the sometimes painful folly of being sentimental
(and other lessons learned)
"After this, there's really nothing left"...
she says, almost absentmindedly,
while pulling out a tiny black velvet bag.
(have no doubt, this was her mostly playing martyr)
I quickly catch the simultaneous swallowing
of the huge lump in her throat,
proof, that was more telling than she'd like.
She went on saying (with trademarked bite)
that she'd gifted my sister
some old piece of her jewelry as well—
perhaps a ring
or earrings ...

THROUGH TIMES EVAPORATIVE HEALING TOUCH (time, date & place unknown?)
my heart my mind
my eyes
hold tears
they cannot yet release
express nor cry
long trapped beneath
my early childhood s
and adolescent s
now long passed
long lapsed
though somehow
still ongoing
haunted crumbled ruins
entombed in sleep
long buried and hid away
so deeply self compartmentalized
in subconscious paralysis
long frozen from some

it's a living
it's gotta be Monday 2.0
waking up to another cup of what the fuck
still seeing darkness through the bedroom window
and that damn alarm screaming insistently
rubbing my last ragged nerve until it's raw
I'm not ready to rise
another day
another punch of the clock
grinding through corporate mediocrity
this isn't who I used to be
but that was another life
better times
today I'm filling pockets for some other guy
twice a month scoring another tiny paycheck
but it pays my bills & they're good to me, in all...

upon this lovely january morn
a debut saltation for 2024
“I like the dreams of the future better than the history
of the past.”—Thomas Jefferson
upon this lovely january morn,
o how my heart, intrepid in its pulse,
keeps vigil, as the fledgling year is born,
while earth's nerves, in her afterbirth, convulse!
she sucks her first breath from the virgin wind
...
