realities
We cannot banish dangers, but we can banish fears. We must
not demean life by standing in awe of death.”—David Sarnoff
let me not to the marriage of pipe dreams
devote myself,
nor think life, broken, blooms best, disarrayed
upon the shelf.
what if the trivialities o’er which
much ado reigns
discolour all my yearning with their God-
forsaken stains?
how shall i mend the breach when, fallen blind,
the needle’s eye
through whose lens i must find a better way
to live or die?
presumptuous thoughts no...

Black Ale
I love your natal skin;
So rich, I drink you in.
You're poured liquid black, but a solidified creamy brown;
You feel so good going down
I just bask in your detail,
You're intoxicating,
Black Ale.
Some call you bitter, I've heard some say tart,
I though, understand your complexities, so to me, I'll say you're art.
You taste of citrus, pine, & of strong caramel.
I sip you slowly, to keep the effects minimal.
But, your powers are more, than your body can entail,
My intoxicating,
Black Ale.

Two Sides To Everyone
Yesterday I was in the laundromat washing & drying my clothes
This suspicious looking asshole comes in and starts asking people if they want "some"
Everyone was minding their own business, doing their thing
I saw one guy ask what "some" meant
The guy said, "Some, u know like Heroin, Cocaine, Ecstasy, shit like that!"
The guy stuttered and said, "nanananooo thanks"
This muthafucker now was approaching me
He came up to me and said, "Bro I know you were listening, you want some stuff?"
I said go fuck...

True Justice (Desert Hunt)
Through the New Mexico desert night like rats they ran
Six backpack carrying illegal males accompanied by a long-haired woman,
“The weakness of the government’s border security made him 357 mad
So once again the desert hunt was on for the illegals trespassing ass,
“With his night vision on he followed the illegals as they fled
Three head shots from his LSR employed them in the land of the dead,
“The woman caught a round through the left and right knee
While another jumped down a cactus filled slope attempting to flee,

A Droplet Inside of your Teeth
Grievances slide to which side I was thinking about previously
In all my silly syntax of teeth I couldn’t produce the right response, but once I’m inside of your thoughts…
There was an honest moment when I lost it, but it wasn’t now, because the now is now knowing that the notes are fluttering, flowing, flying amongst me and you together forever
Will you be my bride?
Where are my manners?
You and I will be your bride
What silliness
What!
Time forever invades the message of what is real
Really?
Well...

The Climb
In a distant kingdom, beyond the horizon,
There lived a hero named Monte.
He was in no hurry or fear,
for in his chest he kept a cry.
Monte knew the journey was long
but your heart, like a sponge,
absorbed hope and faith
in the certainty that he would win.
He walked, through valleys and mountains,
facing storms and exploits.
He calmly faced each challenge
for he knew that after the night came a day.
"There's no rush," he said,
"Victory comes to those who know magic
patience and persistence ...

the wealthy couple
The wealthy couple
who live on an island in the Far East
but once a year, they visit Europe
every year when I see them, they have changed
Alas, I wish it had been for the better
both are followers of a health regime concocted
by a Guru of the type that prays on the rich
they are now advanced middle-aged (below 61
and in the hope of staving off the time of elderliness
they trim and live on a lettuce a day.
Their effort are valiant but in vain time always win
At a distance and in the afternoon light, they look fine
like...

ARREST ME
Arrest Me
I do solemnly and sincerely swear that the evidence I shall give
Shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth...
Firstly allow me to say “i love you” to this vanilla taste-like creature with a soft chocolate skin standing here.
Tit for tat, what’s mine be mine, i want to make a plea;
Your honor, Mr Cupid I am pleading not guilty.
Yes of-course there is no ring or even a print on her finger,
For i never get a chance to insert it.
But our secret matrimony be my general verdict.
Fury not but we do not need a jury, ...

The Legend of Relámpago
I’m going to tell you a story about a masked avenger,
Faster than Zorro and more agile than a luchador,
He fought for those who couldn’t defend themselves,
I’m talking about the one and only – Relámpago!
He had been a lawyer and a local sheriff,
In a small quaint town just north of Mexico,
And one day after the mafia couldn’t buy him,
They killed his family with one harsh blow.
His family’s funeral took place on a rainy day,
Even then the mafia would still not let go,
He was attacked in the middle of their burial,
And left for...

the richest man
The richest man, in the world
To be at the top of a trade or business must be a burden
that also goes for famous artists
I'm thinking of a man so wealthy he can buy anything
he desires, is there such a thing as limitless preference?
for a business type, it must be hard
to understand
people who are happy with less and have no hunger
to walk the extra mile for slippery glory and medals
and prizes were given to him for his wealth and not
for his personality, that when faced with
the nonpractical discourse appears to falter ...

I took a stroll with Death, Life and Love
Recently, I took a stroll with Death,
He held my hand, reassured me, there was love in his breath.
“This is my way” , Death’s voice saddened and sorrowed,
Sadly you are only guests, living lives on time borrowed.
We did the rounds of the wards,
The love, hope and care, it really deeply surprised me,
“We don’t give up without a fight”, I said,
Death agreed, he smiled, ye humans are undeniable…
And in those moments I realised,
Death was actually teaching me about life,
Peace, joy, hope, sorrow, human ingredients,
It now dawns...

Let Freedom Reign
I shall not perish, despite your relentless try,
My freedom will rise in the midst of strife.
Even if I fade in the struggle for my right,
Another will take my place, continuing the fight.
So, persist as you might in your oppressive spree,
For the spirit of freedom will outlive me.
In the echo of courage, in the call for what's right,
My legacy endures, an unwavering light.
