Entangled
THE GRAND MILLENNIUM CONDOMINIUMS
Manhattan, New York
Upper West Side
Marcus lifted the saturated loofah and wrung it over Zaniyah’s shoulder blade.
The soapy water droplets slid down her skin.
Marcus pulled Zaniyah back against his chest.
“Baby, let me ask you a question.”
Zaniyah pivoted her head upward.
“Yes.”
“And answer me honesty, strictly off the record.”
“Would you just ask me the question handsome?”

That Bitch (The Nun Runner Series Part IV)
Upper Eastside
New York
Ring ring…
Opening my eyes to my cell phone bird tone morning sing
Yeah, and who the fuck is this!
Disturbing my beauty sleep this shit best be legit
You got one up on me and that’s only because you’re a dick
My Queen we got some problems coming our way
I do not know how you got this phone number, lick my cunt and have a ride or die day
Lifting my cell phone pushing in my G’s numbers, phone up to my ear
Dammit…I told my crew to remain calm until the...

Ghost
Is she telling me, I have to pay more to get her dude’s business
Hang on sexy, stand down, it’s too many witnesses
And? Gee, hold my shades, let me correct this twisted babe
You better take off those fake ass glasses and recognize
I’m coming at you with a Glock and then I’ll fuck you with my Colt Forty-Five
Stepping out the sand box like you the real shit
You fucking weave wearing bitch
I will fuck you up and then paper...

You About To Get Served And Straight Dealt (Ghosting That Ass IV Of V)
My Queen, the Mexican Cartel want a sit down meeting with you
Nobody wants an all out war in the streets between the crews
Gee, how long have you known me
I will fuck you up or shoot you in your head while you on your knees
Adversity and taking a nigga out, while you half past dead, bleeding out, and still begging for your life with a oh no, pretty please
And bring me that weird looking ass bitch, I heard he was the inside snitch
just make sure to keep your hand on the trigger in...

All The Queen’s Men
Sugar Hill Estates
NoHo Manhattan
My Queen how does it feel to be legit
You know I never did eat where I sit when I piss
Send word out to the Cartels
Come correct with that pure cut, or I will send them all to hell
Make sure you strap up
Those boy’s toys are hard cut
And I need my crew’s eyes when we float down in the dirty South
Shoot anyone who gives you any mouth
Gee, who do we know in those parts we can trust
My Queen, no one, the last time, we thought we were on the up and up, you...

187 (The Nun Runner Series VI)
You want some of this smoke… yeah I’m the one doing the puffing
I will blow smoke up your ass and leave you huffing
No, my sista I don’t get down with cunts I cannot wax
Hold this bitch still while I break her legs with my autographed Sammie Sosa baseball bat
Your dumb ass done confused the tigeress with the cat
Coming all up to my table popping yang
If you aint dined on Beluga Sturgeon Caviar and know how to apply pain
Then bitch you can’t even say my name
This is a rich game and not for the wanna be gangsta bitches
And death to all the...

To Dream The Impossible Dream (Little Rock Arkansas)
Bathe my mind with wisdom
Cleanse my naked soul in truth
Guide the freedom of my spirit to the hereafter
My footprints marked, engraved
The path of my journey has already been paved
The sweetest tidal wave of time washed upon the sands of time
Joyfulness resonating oh thy sweet whispers
Stealing layers of me from birth, my Strawman's account, bankrupt, denied wealth
Sheds of me left, by chains confining blistered feet upon plantation back welts
Mirror mirror on the wall
Protect my reflection from...

The f**kins
Watching river traffic on the Willamette was soothing. Tugboats leading mighty cargo ships. Fireboats with their high-reaching water plumes. Bedecked sailboats with flickering lights during the Christmas season. My favorite boat had a timed sequence of Santa skiing down a hill. All of this was right outside my window or viewed leisurely from my balcony. True, the complex was just starting to go to seed, remodeled some years later as pricey waterfront condos.
It was one of the best places I've ever lived. Close to downtown Portland, across the street from Union Station. From my...

Smoky Bourbon Years - Complete Rewrite for Clarity
Smoky Bourbon Years
My smoky bourbon lady puts her hand on my arm like a priestess blessing me. And sweet jazz from a distant club seeps through the open window to caress my innermost thoughts along with her tender touch that warms me like a barrel fire for homeless wraiths in a back alley of winter.
But the throb of my heart beats to her metronome and finds solace in the embrace of her smile, a grin that checks me into her villa of love whose room key is mine to hold. And I hold her deep in the night when love is an apostasy whose gnostic allure...

It’s All About The Benjamin’s
Crane Island
Amelia Island, Florida
Gee, peep the scene, unsnap to reach for your second weapon
This is too easy that’s a number one taught lesson
I never did like a transaction I had to boat it in
Cornering my existence if things get thick then we have to swim
My Queen, we got the Coast Guard on the payroll
So just hang tight and go with the flow
Gee, if anything moves out the corner of your eye, grab the dope and the cash and let your lead blow
Well, My Queen so nice to have you in...
