Have You Seen My Wife ? - a true story
Have you seen my wife?
the creaking floors, the hollow walls,
the garden where he planted beer cans
that bloom without joy.
She was the spark in his life once,
or so he thought
a face a caramel tart,
a voice like honey,
a promise dressed in silk.
But promises break,
don’t they?
Their house became a carnival,
not of laughter but of strangers.
Friends from overseas filled the guest rooms,
toasting her beauty,
praising the home he built.
Their cheers drowned the whispers
he refused...
the creaking floors, the hollow walls,
the garden where he planted beer cans
that bloom without joy.
She was the spark in his life once,
or so he thought
a face a caramel tart,
a voice like honey,
a promise dressed in silk.
But promises break,
don’t they?
Their house became a carnival,
not of laughter but of strangers.
Friends from overseas filled the guest rooms,
toasting her beauty,
praising the home he built.
Their cheers drowned the whispers

Mask of Originality
In the passages of creativity, where the muse whispers from the depth of a soul, a villain looms—one that is dishonest and empty who claims accolades.
A new age has dawned, where the pen once wielded with sweat and soul is replaced by keys tapping into endless algorithms, yet some dare to claim the resulting words as wholly their own.
Ai might have started with good intentions but it didn't stay this way, with a spark of innovation, the humming of machines learning the words, and the rhythms of the poet and recycling their authentic thoughts,...

A CHANGE IS COMING
As I continue to stand and tolerate, the deepness of the real things, that will affect the very foundation of the world. 🌍 AS we use to connect with it emotionally and physically and spiritually, but yet it's not the same situations that we have known in the past. WHEN things were good for the betterment of humanity and society. For sure we will face now more than ever truly bad times, living in a place that has changed in ways that we could never image. 🤨 For sure people that we thought we could trust, have now become the enemy of the state, with there wicked web...

Nice Guy Chronicles V
Getting take outs is an art
As much as all the places sell similar food
You just know that if you want this meal
You prefer to go to store A instead of store B
My friend and I knew this one burger place
It was a bit of a walk as we had to pass the closer stores but hey
These ones were worth the extra footsteps
As we walked up,
I noticed two people a few paces ahead of us.
'Look at her' - I whispered to my friend.
He nodded in response.
As we unspokenly agreed that we're both mesmerized.

Estranged
so.... Catch me up on your conspiracy
Tell me why lately I'm left out
I hope you didn't "let her think"
That she is what we're so mad about
I heard how you cut her hair tonight
Now suddenly it's an awkward time
As I recall last night wasn't good either
and this isn't by your design
so.... Catch me up on your conspiracy
and tell me why lately she's been coached
She seems distracted when we do talk
inconsolable when I approach
Why use our daughter to reign me in
then you'll bitch when it doesn't work as planned ...

Tinseltown (collab with AfterSexDilemma)
Plastic people, faux life
Celebrities shine,
Amongst the pain & strife
An illusion of a directors thoughts
Cesspool in Eden
Pleasing the studio boss
Artificial in everything that's seen
Pictures of beauty
Reality is a dream
Never think more then you know
A testament to your image
Look your best, before the show
Wading in a shallow pool
Drink it up like a fool.
Trees a plenty and lost inside.
A forest, crazies, come to hide.
Hollywood, shining bright.
The stars,...

I Think Not...
As the saying goes, age before old grace
Sorrowful, you wanted a taste
Ahh.. the door was slammed in your face in disgrace
I make the rules in my castle and who sits by me upon my throne
Sent you away without the doggie's hard and long bone
Having you salivate from afar.. after waving to you.. hoe be gone
Watch it... when the truth is not on a crooked one's side
Funny how a pale one always screaming what you wanted, not even fair seeming
Wake up, you old bitter bitch,...

Their Numbers Don't Make Sense and since they aren't the band the Talking Heads, Maybe They Should?
I would like to think I am not a sheep
blindly following the Democratic label
more than one occasion
I have rejected voting for a donkey
even for president (1996 voted for dad)
The Republican Party illustrates why
math is vital for more than ever
they disregard the basics with numbers
in their quest to destroy
what has been the foundation
for advancement for all people
Lets start with the venom directed
toward Barack Obama
even if you don't like the dude
we should all reject the notion
of...

Don’t Blame Me For The Fool You Made of Yourself
Don’t frame me in the role of the shade you cast on me
When I’m the villain in your delusion, the trauma of your fantasy
Tell me that I led you on when in truth I made it clear
But you broke your own heart on the words you want to hear
Filtering perspectives through
The darkest part of me and the most desperate part of you
I’m trying to understand it through your broken point of view
Hostages to head games and fabricated myths of slander
For all the things I wish I never said in my will to pander
Gradually I digress as my thoughts...

Withdrawn
You said you love me but i know it's a lie
How can you say you love me and then make me cry?
Lately you don't have time, we're barely even speaking
Going out at night creeping
Calling out his name while you're sleeping
I pretend I don't hear cuz i don't want to believe
Dont want to start a fight cuz I don't want you to leave
I gave my heart to you girl, what more could you want?
Then I saw you out with him at our favorite restaurant
Come through the door and have the nerve to kiss me nonchalant
You're already...
