Miss understood (Part 1)
I’m not for [ everybody ]
not everyone comprehends innuendo [ here ]
In hindsight I wrote intuition in [ frustration ]
let me speak to be absolutely [ clear: ]
Don’t just listen to How in my [ words ]
listen close to What intellect is in its [ meaning ]
I don’t speak circles to [ entertain ]
I speak in Braille for the [ gleaning ]
Envision binary patterns in felt [ repetition ]
rationalize bumps and breaks to [ devour ]
You heard 50 shades of [ grey ]
I discern sweet from [ sour ]
Its difficult...

Repeat Offender
Pessimistic fool by nature or so it seems
Always waiting for the other shoe to drop
Past the double talk and random schemes
Still unable to make all this madness stop
Change is inevitable it’s a product of time
Careless actions leading to another bender
Found guilty but never committed a crime
A social stigma spawning a repeat offender
Always waiting for the other shoe to drop
Past the double talk and random schemes
Still unable to make all this madness stop
Change is inevitable it’s a product of time
Careless actions leading to another bender
Found guilty but never committed a crime
A social stigma spawning a repeat offender

Drag Thoughts
Drag thoughts
Thoughts drag
Drag story time
Reading books
Drag thoughtful
Pleasure in human flesh
Thoughtful drag
Lifts up my spirits
Just want to exist
In this hateful place
Not putting upon
What makes me be alive
Thoughts in drag
Reasoned and respectful
Why can’t they be one of us
When they give so much love
Not asking for anything special
Just to be realized as human
And not a freak of nature
The only thing they groom
Is...
Thoughts drag

Imposter
Evil lurks, with God's disgrace.
Heaven weeps, as tears lead chase.
Under moon lite nights, and days unbound.
The Devil yearns, hear his wailing howls.
Understand, the prays unturned.
Like summer breeze, on skin that burns.
Find the bliss, from foreign gates.
Miss led trails, and venomous snakes.
Half bitten apples, that knowledge taints.
Robbed by Eve, where Time forsakes.
Notes of lies, that mortals make.
Tunes of tongues, for life will ache.
Heaven weeps, as tears lead chase.
Under moon lite nights, and days unbound.
The Devil yearns, hear his wailing howls.
Understand, the prays unturned.
Like summer breeze, on skin that burns.
Find the bliss, from foreign gates.
Miss led trails, and venomous snakes.
Half bitten apples, that knowledge taints.
Robbed by Eve, where Time forsakes.
Notes of lies, that mortals make.
Tunes of tongues, for life will ache.

Deck of Cards (Collab With Duice)
Splitting chakra checkered card
deck reveals a big Joker of hearts
Aligned to be circus clown renown in mastery
to circles in aerial misdirection of arts
A bachelor of scholar in jester
to whimsical false degree starts
Unbalanced on high-rise thread walks
that net catch wild reaction remarks
Cannon fodder for fun launched
on explosions blown sky high
A cardinal jeered by child eyes
or mohawk birdie sky draws nigh...

Reincarnated Rock
Hard as shit.
Stiff as a brick.
Can't tickle me. I'm not giving in.
I love to sin.
Get these hills rolling,
On little kids crossing the bridge.
No more trolling.
I'm Napoleon the smallest fright.
You break me with your dynamite.
My minions will stand and fight.
River pebbles like a slip n slide.
My foes regret this bumpy ride.
Through the waterbed, at great heights.
Spew them down a waterfall,
No wings to fly.
My enemies know they're gonna die.
I laugh on the inside,
Not sure why I commit...

LOVE IN MY ARMS (I)(original 1st draft;1976; Poretto Jetty, Galveston, Texas; struggling with being Gay at 22 yr.s old)
love in my arms
here then gone
comes and goes
like some rare moon tide
so infrequently in my life
sunrise soon brightened
into new day
but it s clarity only added to
my ever deepening
self loathing s confusions
so i chose to stay home
until the sun had gone down
as evening eventually arrived
only a comfortable disguise
then down to the beach i walked
as night s darkness soon fell upon me

Scrubs Need Love Too
Dear Beautiful Nubian Sister Queen
why did you have to be so mean
I was just saying Ooh La La
and you acted like I was disrespecting Allah
I was just trying to Holla
does everything have to be about the almighty dolla
With a woman like you I could be a Millionaire
instead of steps away from Food Stamps and Medicare
Just remember this last thing Boo

CREATURES OF HABITS
As we exchange our own personal chains of thoughts and insight, into this senseless mindless trap between the lines of your own personal. REALITY of what is right and wrong 🤔 For have you ever been in a relationship or situation, that you have felt like a outer experience. FOR your thoughts and insight and imagination. 🤨 Become slowly something that you have or not never had to expected. TO ever happens to just you yet there is no longer a exception. TO the rules of what is known of your own personal life. 😞 AS people are creatures of habits. For a snake sheds it's...

Unbreakable
It's ok!” Someone spilled a drink on her shoe.
“It's Ok!” Someone bashed into her
“It's ok!” Someone breaks her heart.
“It's ok!” Someone sends her whole life into a blur.
And you think that's alright?
Shattering someone's soul .
Make them feel empty
Killing the life that you stole.
“Its ok” That you destroy someone
It's fine that you change someone for the worse
Giving them a life
That they themselves must nurse
And you just walk away
Not batting an eye
While we just sit here teary
Trying not to...
“It's Ok!” Someone bashed into her
