Poison Wells
Fixations to relation
We speak the same language of retaliation
Revolting against the establishment in theory
Without the means to make a change
Uttering clever ways to lodge complaints in unofficial petitions
Incite a riot on the grounds of self righteous seditions
What’s wrong and what is right when it’s all a matter of how you quote the narrative
Half empty gauges of our lack
Conditioned by self robbery
How do we take our perceptions back?
Tell me what to believe
When our goods and evils are relegated to the roles of truth...

Perspective Of The Invisible
humans .
we think
we’re so important.
in evolutionary
time,
we’re newcomers.
on the geologic
clock,
we’re a few seconds.
without a
ginormous
magnifier,
on the galactic
timeline,
we’re invisible.

Reclaiming My Digital Odyssey
In the realm of cyberspace, I took my stand,
A journey on Facebook's digital land.
With friends and family, a decade's embrace,
In this virtual world, I found my place.
But storm clouds gathered, toxicity grew,
A web of turmoil, emotions askew.
I pondered my path, sought guidance from near,
To face this dilemma, confront the fear.
Alternatives considered, but none felt right,
So back to the familiar, I turned my sight.
Forced to stay in discomfort's domain,
I shifted my viewpoint, sought strength to gain.
I balanced the scales,...

new ears of corn
a trochee
[No. 10 from The Children’s Collection]
“Nature gives man corn but he must grind it; God gives man a will but
he must make the right choices.”―Fulton J. Sheen
when the ears of corn are ripening and their silk-thread teeth come smiling,
let me frolic through the cornfield―in the cornfield let me play.
i shall tip-toe past the scarecrow while the birds he is beguiling,
lest i scare the birds―lest i should too soon scare the birds away.
one for maggot, one for john crow, one for cutworm,...

Akitu
Love warms the air
The stars shine bright
I have never experienced such joy in my lifetime
Yet my soul remembers
It reflects the cosmic luminosity
Of a culture and family long ago passed
I yearn for that sense of community again
I do not belong to this world
My heart remains in the forgotten memories
A new year has come, another life to experience
Yet my heart and soul will forever yearn for what no longer exists.

Thy Will Shall Be Done (The Covenant)
For your arrogance, Damballa and your spiritual treason, your malice, your racial contempt, your hate, YOU and your regrets were tossed off the Mothership
Then to label yourself in this dimension as the demoness Maman Brigitte who scowls the night killing babies, including the divine spiritual killing of your own
Bedazzling men and women with false spiritual ideology in hopes their minds are confused, too far gone
And you want the world to worship a snakehead you have placed upon your throne
The Lilith of the night, a Jinn, an Earth slithering...

Liberator
Liberator
He will rise where the shadows have meaning.
In his hand he will grip the throat of the empire.
Two will become many as the skies trail
a heavenly tear.
Years will pass as days
and some will trespass
into the wrong direction.
Freedom will know another face.
Laws will crumble underneath
a massive weight.
There will be hope
in the eyes of the just.
What once was can never be again.
Under new rule a time will come
to prosper.
Poets will write of history
and the dawn...
He will rise where the shadows have meaning.
In his hand he will grip the throat of the empire.
Two will become many as the skies trail
a heavenly tear.
Years will pass as days
and some will trespass
into the wrong direction.
Freedom will know another face.
Laws will crumble underneath
a massive weight.
There will be hope
in the eyes of the just.
What once was can never be again.

Speaking the Lingo
All the bits and bobs
That cross my space
The dilly dalliance sidesteps
Are the key to my truth
The wafting breeze
to decipher my thoughts
And give shape to my language
I’m well jel of your enunciation
Your cut glass echo
We are like chalk and cheese
But the similarities bubble
We have a shared culture
A lovely jubbly hotchpotch
Of history and experiences
That bind us to our motherland
and let us mooch around at leisure
Exploring our love of the slang

Redemption Over, Nothing Left but Bourbon and Trouble
Listen up
Good behavior has ceased
Rogue behavior commences immediately
Be thankful I keep you honest
Had sex in the little safe deposit room
Prelude to Thanksgiving
White meat
Dark meat
Take what's given
Made a deposit twice
Some people pay for comedy
It's free here
Just for you
Enjoy the day !
