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...

Never Underestimate
QUINTESSENTIAL TRIBECA LOFT
New York, New York
The Next Day
Zaniyah laid on Marcus’ chest wall. She uplifted her face.
“I had a very very nice time last night in your bed.” She kissed the side of his neck. “In the shower, and in this bed this morning.”
Zaniyah kissed Marcus under his chin.
Marcus kissed Zaniyah on top of her forehead. He hugged her body closely to his. He bent his head down to detain her eyes.
Zaniyah tilted her face upward.

.......Rush (Can I Get A Moment Of Your Time, Miss. Philly)
Philadelphia state of mind I must speak of
Soft and silken Sisterly affection blanketing by some weakening Brotherly love
An addictive inner city of carnal pleasure seeking distractions
An enticing tour to roam deep within the soul, a rapid pulse for private satisfaction
Mm... the turnpike curves of Pennsylvania, nestled between New Jersey and New York
The main dish of butter rum a la carte can be enjoyed without any spoons or forks
Palate dining pleasure catered for three
Swinging balls enjoying the holes in...

Gotta.. Em
My Queen, word on the street
You got John Wick, and this crew about to take the heat
Yeah, I know
Gee we don’t back down or off, we stand our ground and let the bullets flow
I got a million dollar cash marker, stashed and gagged in my basement
That fuck was not going down quiet he was relent
Throwing bricks
Then knives, dodging my shell casings evading my Glock hits
My Queen your arm is bleeding
It's a flesh wound, and this is nothing compared to what we will heeding or needing
Have my boys ready to move out, and no hero...

Armed And Dangerous
CABONI’S ITALIAN RISTORANTE
Manhattan, New York
“Would you like something else to eat, beautiful?”
“Marcus, I’m stuffed to capacity. There is nothing else getting in this dress.”
“Save some room for me later on.”
“I promise.”
Marcus scooted his chair back and stood. He walked around the table.
“Can I have this dance?”
“You certainly can.”
Francine lifted her white dinner napkin from off her lap, and placed it near her China plate. She scooted her chair back, clasped...

We Got Their Compound Surrounded... Let’s Do This Gee
Gee, kill that light
You got it my Queen, this fuck about to get served since we bringing the gun fight
Have my crew to crash in and nobody moves until I say when
Fuck his ass up, make him bleed, and shoot his twin
These hustlers been getting away with some straight up bullshit
Stealing these Cartels’ dope
Reselling it for half price the pure cut, now ain’t that bout a bitch
My Queen, I think it’s youngsters inside
If so, aim high while I blindfold their eyes ...

The Evading Gunslinger...
Life on the run has been, liberating, fun
Sought, and caught in the heat of the sun
By John Dillinger himself
In the desert, on a bed of sand, stealing my panting breaths
Legs linked around his neck
Tenderly licking my cunt, then making love to my mouth, punishment as dealt
Marring my delicate skin with his gun belt
Surrendering to him my moans, my whimpers, scratching his back with fine welts
Rapture unto us has been felt
Between my thighs
Fingering my pussy, tasting the gift inside
Cupping my hips,...

Ghosting That Ass...
Gee, how long do we have to go
I need to get back to New York, after we take care of this hit, we all disappear and invest the profits from our products on the down low
My Queen, it’s best we sneak up on the Russian Cartel and let the bullets flow
Those ruthless fucks’ compound is just over the hill
Don’t worry we got them in sniper rage, we case out the joint and take out the head czar like a true gangsta kill
Their weapons of choice, cannot match ours at any rate or when used at will
And that’s the art of this Nun Runner’s deal ...

Otherworldly Memories Part II: The City of Sorrow
- Otherworldly Memories Part II: The City of Sorrow -
It was a long time since the great forests of Arbandir had been pleasant and fair, for they grew now to a thick and ominous degree that was in previous ages unheard of. The trees were now tall and twisted, with gnarled trunks and skeletal branches that somehow still had leaves upon them. Thick were all the leaves of those trees, and frightful was the region wherein those forests lay. No sane individual sought to chart the depths of that primal green kingdom, a kingdom ruled by none. For therein did lie powers, forces and...
