Red dress in NOLA - 1
the streets
felt like an
empty stomach
after Halloween
so much darkness
after a night
of explosive beauty
left the emotional belly
growling, as if
something in the
humid air went
missing
I saw her crying
in the alcove
of a closed store
off Bienville Street
She wore a red dress
and her entire being shook
as she burrowed
her face in the phone
crouched on the
edge of the curb
as if sorrow had
eaten her body,
and collapsed ...

ON THE GO
and she came into town with a late summer breeze
Like something so retro but never seen before
Setting hearts afire bringing them to their knees
With a glimpse of heaven leaving them wanting more
It was in the look and how they breathed this dream
Lost in the secret of her windows to the soul
They could be easily carried away downstream
Into vivid fantasies that can take their toll
She carried herself with an energetic style
A bright future of endless possibilities
And they’d surrender to that contagious smile
Like a trail of...

Mauve
The twilight sky invited me outside.
To rejoice my aching eyes.
A sky awash with ten shades of pink.
Heaven's link.
Each a different strain of my bleeding heart.
Over a love that has no start.
Joy bleeds in my core at the sight of such magical beauty beyond my door.
It dilutes the anguish, turns it mauve.
To rejoice my aching eyes.
A sky awash with ten shades of pink.
Heaven's link.
Each a different strain of my bleeding heart.
Over a love that has no start.
Joy bleeds in my core at the sight of such magical beauty beyond my door.
It dilutes the anguish, turns it mauve.

only a glimpse
i saw
you, but
such time
quickly
passing,
the image
of
your eyes
brought
to my
soul
a blaze,
but i
did not
burn, and
when i
fell asleep
i held
your vision
in that
stare.

The Pouring Of Your Spirit
It flows like liquid
the gentle softness of your
soul over my heart
the gentle softness of your
soul over my heart

Beauty is not a word!
Beauty is many words...
Poeming together.
(Beleza não é uma palavra
Beleza é muitas palavras
Poemando juntas.)
Beauty and words are
Our day-to-day bread.
Words given to mouth
As if you are simply hungry!
(Beleza e palavras são
Os nossos pães de cada dia.
Palavras dadas à boca
Como quem tem muita fome!)

Final Viewing
Next, have a seat here on your casket and tell me how you're doing
Relax yourself with rigor mortis as I prepare you for the viewing
That ashen look will disappear with just a few tweaks
I may have to break your jawbone to help you speak
I'll use curling irons of hell's fire to revive your hair
I'll fill in the bald spots yes I can put hair back anywhere
Just watch as my nimble little fingers move along here and there
Watch as I add back your life's color as if out of thin air
I have rice flour to add color and replace flaking skin

If I want to wear my hair in a pink scrunchie bun, I will, dammit!
Beware!
It's another poem about my hair
I think it's the third.
Kind of stupid and absurd.
When the hot weather just won't stop
my long blonde hair goes atop
secured by the scrunchie of the day
there's not much you can say
if you want to be polite
best call it a night.

Meeting In The Ladies Room II
Just a nighty reality check for the ladies, so listen up, we are in a new month and a new year, there are little offerings we can give our bodies to keep it functioning, to promote a healthy living.
Happy New Year to everyone.
We are in the season referred to, as Old Man Winter, the time the skin loses its hydration, the dry hands/feet, and crackling lips.
Ladies, to maintain that suppleness to the dermis skin you must use a less abrasive skin regiment, I must add, the proper way I would say, is to wash your face upon your Grand Rising, in...

The Plume Of She
there was no
foreseeable poem on my horizon
until she strutted by
epitomizing sheer poetry in slowed-motion
kaleidoscopic...damn i couldn't stop it
got me stuck between the realm of boys to men
brought back a remembered joy to pen
waxing rhapsodic...I got it bad
watching her move from a figment
to the firmament of my swooning imagination
cascading down in a technicolor gown
brown skin crowned by a natural grown afro
smearing pastels and oil paints ...

Trodden Paths Not In Vain
"Paint in silence”
“The Weight of Temp”
Colour your canvas and spill your Art
shake and awaken many a heart
Untether your soul
from your whole
escape mundane and time
and let your brush rhyme
Have Man radiate
pour oil colours on his trait
Carve his seized dreams
and his insight of flowing streams
Let me read his cry of birth
and see the drops of tears on earth
A valiant core, the shell is worn
could not be broken, though torn
You display a challenging stand
behind a back forced to bend ...
“The Weight of Temp”
Colour your canvas and spill your Art
shake and awaken many a heart
Untether your soul
from your whole
escape mundane and time
and let your brush rhyme
Have Man radiate
pour oil colours on his trait
Carve his seized dreams
and his insight of flowing streams
Let me read his cry of birth
and see the drops of tears on earth
A valiant core, the shell is worn
could not be broken, though torn
You display a challenging stand
behind a back forced to bend ...

Whither
Your breath
Silent sonnets of poetry
Which wreath the air
With something more -
Indefinable
As if touching upon forever
You're art in the stillness
That pleasures my eyes
And I'm lost
Drowning in the view
What is it stays the moment
Longer
Whenever you're near
Imaginings take flight
From the shadows of my mind
Loosed like freshening breeze
Bearing the scent of rain
Before a summer storm
As distant thunder rolls
You possess that fire which stirs a man
And makes his feelings burn ...
