The Albatross
I used to think
those hanging an albatross
around their neck
were serious about penance—
those standing their ground
saying, I refuse to retreat
but will go down with this ship
because that's how much I believe;
or, deeply loved—
because any other behavior
would mean I did not
Yet, sooner or later
some kind rebound lover
bearing gifts and poetry
appears in shining armor;
or, perhaps another...

My love
My Love
With my life full of your love we have endless possibilities.
With each others love we have no limits.
I love you with everything that I am,
For now, forever and for always my baby you shall be
My best friend, my lover, my heart, my soul.
You are the miracle that makes my life complete.
You are my dream, and together we are a team.
Never for a moment doubt my loyalty,
As you have me,
And I now and forever have us.
With my life full of your love we have endless possibilities.
With each others love we have no limits.
I love you with everything that I am,
For now, forever and for always my baby you shall be
My best friend, my lover, my heart, my soul.
You are the miracle that makes my life complete.
You are my dream, and together we are a team.
Never for a moment doubt my loyalty,
As you have me,
And I now and forever have us.

Madam President
Voting for a new president
is coming at this moment
Will we get what we want
I really don't know
System is broken
Will we get a good president
Who the hell knows
So Michelle Obama,
Kim Kardashian-West
Oprah, Nicki Minaj
Gayle King, Camila Cabello
You need to run for president you
Ladies will be the
change we need
To fix the
screwed up system
is coming at this moment
Will we get what we want
I really don't know
System is broken
Will we get a good president
Who the hell knows
So Michelle Obama,
Kim Kardashian-West
Oprah, Nicki Minaj
Gayle King, Camila Cabello
You need to run for president you
Ladies will be the
change we need

Impunity
By lengthy Wall Street greeding frenzy rope
the G.O.P. is twisting in the wind
with a policy ruin to rescind
by the legislation of brand new hope
which whole generations have been denied
due to thinking trapped in tradition's box,
wherein lie overestimation's stocks
to buy and sell with the fellows inside
and all those on the outs to be dismissed
into oblivion's bottomless pit,
where all the meek are expected to twist
In the noose breeze where no one gives a shit,
but now, the meek are slowly getting pissed...
at the tyranny...

Olympia
After the year two thousand, they stopped making bodies like that
Hahaha able and willing, with a tight kitty kat
She doesn't let just anybody hit that, she's very particular
She doesn't consider sex simply an extra curriculum
Fuck what you've faced and where you've been, she wasn't it
You've gotta be more than worthy to hit that shit
She's no blunt and won't be rolled or passed around
You've gotta come with the real if you want to get down
Flashy clothes and cars isn't gonna do it
Hell, you could have nine baby mommas cause...

Faces of Old Bark
..in the faces on the old bark
on backroads of memories
of musings, doings
and lucid dreams of red clay
down by the feet of my shadow
where Mama now rests
surrounded by nature's postcards
in the faces on the old bark
on backroads of memories
of musings, doings
and lucid dreams of red clay
down by the feet of my shadow

There’s a cranky old poetry machine
tucked away in the back of my head.
It hasn’t been running well, of late,
only firing up in short, infrequent bursts
as a last-resort grasp at clarity
when emotions have become too tangled.
It has suffered from disuse,
its metaphors jammed,
flow revving unevenly in halting, coughing word-bursts.
Today I’m pulling it from the shed and
gently blowing off the dust.
I’ll gingerly test each lever and pulley,
searching for semblance of rhythm and rhyme,
replacing spark plugs of...

lucidness is gone
please help me along
to mend the broken wings of lies
I told to you that one night
when we were lost
in the beautiful storm
of sweet nothingness
and shattered memories...

Softy Co-Piloting Your Mind First Class (Air Style)
To be in the know moment one takes time to see things as others cannot grasp the concept or lose focus of presented perceptions
We go through life to make better choices for ourselves
For the parents who have children, safeguard their future the best way possible
Read to them is always my advice
Do not allow highway information from the internet to be the window of their innocent souls
What happens when you live in a world that not only supports you...

A Blonde
A blonde is not a diagnosis
but a state of mind
There are many thoughts in
the bright mind
Smart, funny, energetic
And very pretty
Mistress of locks of discord
You will not forget her soon
They live in a blonde for a reason
Coquetry, intelligence and beauty
but a state of mind
There are many thoughts in
the bright mind
Smart, funny, energetic
And very pretty
Mistress of locks of discord
You will not forget her soon
They live in a blonde for a reason
Coquetry, intelligence and beauty

put not thy trust in the common place of this world
lovers have betrayed
me
friends have abandoned
me
and don't get me started
on that dirty cheating
bastard,
life
but there were the books
always books
silent stalwarts of sanity
and salvation
Hemingway
Fante
Rand
Salinger
and so many, oh
so many
more
the words washing ...
