Skin Wars
Who told you that the color of a soul was skin-deep?
That it had to lose its pigmentation in order to get a spot where you sleep
Who told you that the beauty of a soul had color in the first place?
What reality are we living in where hatred can just shit in our face?
Who told you that we were allowed to see a soul in this way?
Who told you that this was ok?
That it was ok to write your self-appointed and twisted views into the book of man
That you can control and play God under the one true being who created man

I tried
I pretend to sleep, tears dried on my cheeks.
The bed squeaks as you sneak from the sheets. It’s the third time this week...
It’s her to which you seek to go hide and speak to. You don’t know I’m awake, I hear the conversation that partakes. With every soft spoken word I feel my heart break, my hands begin to shake. I burn to ashes from your mistakes...
You return to bed, countless thoughts infect my head. You believe I didn’t hear the all that was said. Tonight my soul bled caused by lies I was fed by the man my heart was set to wed....
Motionless in this...

Secret #2
I thought about writing a poem but instead I'm telling you a story. I think of words to say but yet those words are hidden. I am sad but yet not depressed. I'm a freak but yet so normal. I'm a nighttime star but yet I'm without a light. I see but can't believe. I try but yey give up. I trust but yet I'm alone. I'm unselfish but yet I break things. I'm not here to say some lines. Because the truth is even now I'm wasting my time. Not because I need attention but because I fear isolation. I wish I had an answer but instead I got nothing. I don't have a damn idea on what to do or who i am meant...

My mind
A life unfolds
Lost treasures and golds
The abyss of lost souls
Hell or heaven who knows
Past flaws put in pictures
Grab paint and make mixtures
An explorer on his adventures
Common greed and penny pinchers
A man on his own
Lost forever and unknown
One mistake and he will go
From disappointment he will grow
The chance of a lifetime
No time is the right time
A man in his right mind
A search for the right kind
A king begins to battle
A warrior horse in his...

MY TRIBUTE AND HOMAGE
As life stand still and the whole world has been put into another situation, that again got way out of hands due to the racist actions of the blue wall of silence, who committed straight out murder on another person. Yet through the protesting and speaking out about the injustice not as people of color, but as people from every race and creed and color for a common cause. Voice there own options and feelings even there thoughts as enough is enough of the police brutality, that ends up killing another individual unjustly as it goes beyond and above the law. For it is those officers who needs...

THE SCREAMS OF DEATH
As this moment within time repeats itself time and time again with police brutality, but yet I want to explore the true depth of your subconsciousness as a black man and black woman even those of different race and creed and color. For I want to voyage deep into the deep underground, within the gateway of the deepness within your mind and thoughts. For it is definitely true that our lives, don't matter to the wall of silence but yet what does it matter to you? For you have some police officers still using force, making false reports and yet still against those of color even those that are...

Imagery Poems (From Group Play)

It was right there on the tip of his tongue
kissing lemon with some little tart
a stone pathway, pushcart town
awaiting strawberry festival
juicy and succulent drips mix in pitcher
cool of ice lavished with suckle
so sweet She is dribbling my chin
this my friend, tis a wonderful lil town
2:
Shots rang out coupled by whistle of flight
foxholes din and all her men scream bloody murder
between the crackles of short-wave radio
stukas dive taking...

The Heart That Pulls Away Must Mimic And Overcome The Stark Brutalism Of A Solitary Flower Basking In The Final Hours Of Summer Sunlight
I have been smothered
in a stultifying mud of lonesome indifference,
a volcanic eruption of apathetic terror casting a heavy shadow
into the corners of what is an essentially boisterous and magnificent spirit.
I should write the poems each night,
I should play my songs on the keyboard and sing the lyrics each day,
to honor the extraordinary, creative being that inhabits my shoes.

The Note.
Michael.
I wait for my train as another rushes by causing a draft. The platform is bustling with dozens of people rushing about their business on this dull Monday morning. In over an hour I’ll be back behind my desk for the first time in several weeks, and I’m looking forward to getting buried under a backlog of paperwork to keep me distracted.
Moving on is proving to be harder than I anticipated after burying my late wife, but I simply can’t sit around and allow the weight of her loss to slowly crush me. Being on this platform isn’t helping. This is where we met...

Sister https://youtu.be/VJDJs9dumZI
Sister, I'm sitting outside tonight by the fire, our girls are in my bed sleeping or they are giving me some time to write this
just me, your black flannel PJ's,
sherpa robe,
wrapped up like a burrito in my blanket…
I'm being careful about blowing the steam away from my tea… can you see me
Did you see us…I know you did my love
The tea, it''s fogging up my glasses or is it the tears he was able to bring out of me with a song...
Go figure, your all-time remedy for universal communication… Music baby.. Music
I really...
