Unable To Sting
While the irony rubs me wrong
It has ignited a raging fire inside
So you wrote a poem or a song
Intelligence is artificially implied
Grasping the definition of heart
But lacking soul to feel anything
Understanding doesn’t equal art
Empty words are unable to sting

I feel fine
Take a trip through my magic ocean
People always feel real fine
Suddenly the devil said
You may have committed a crime
How do you feel?
I feel fine
Handed down the secret
Mistakes are made, voices are silent
Perfection is the key
A lesson not taught by violence
Your tears have dried through denial
Let's move on hidden sun
Proclamation, assassination
My work here is always done
Create a pathway to salvation
Never once has my trip been exonerated
Death is a chance to recycle
Mind body...

Ideas
I didn't know there was a currency for an
Idea
I thought at least that was free
My dear
But what is coming off in waves of
I fear
Is that the cash in this cave is
insincere
Giving you what I got, was a token in a
pond
It caused too many ripples to stay afloat
or stand on
Wanted to give back what I
gravitated to
But the money is stacked against me, I didn't have
a clue ...

Tree Tops and AI
moment to moment
in the shadows today
quietly listening to nature sing and grieve
things are swiftly changing
sometime my mind reels
seventies child...windy
watching the leaves silently sing
feeling the era
summer days were long
neighborhood children making up their own games outdoors
shaded afternoons up a tree dreaming
creating my own worlds
my favorite tree my protector
green my favored company
bike rides dreaming of the life I would like
and when my garden dream house would...

Wishflowers
My father was a lawn manicurist
as his father before
it had to be perfectly filed—
all four corners
He would spend hours
yanking weeds by their root
each Saturday morning
He’d say, ‘They destroy
the grass if you let’m grow’
I would smile and nod
because he was the wisest
person I knew
But I loved the dandelion—
that lone survivor
bravely popping its head up
I never failed to dismember its seeds
with the zephyr of my breath
And clover
those tiny white or red petals ...

Reflections
No mirror can reveal you.
Mirrors are for the physical world.
And you are not.

I fear no one but GOD
As I reflect upon my journey and travel and walk through this cycle of life, I fear no one but GOD ALMIGHTY for he has my life, within his precious palms of his hands. 🙏 For sure I've learned a long time ago some people's, will tell you that they got your back 🤨 but yet sometimes we question those words base upon there own actions. 🤨 Yet we try not to be negative about some people's behavior, for some people's are just creatures of habits. 🤨 That's why we have to be aware of the devil's in human skin, like snakes in the high grass waiting patiently to attack...

WHY I APPRECIATE POETRY
I have been asked many times,
"Why do you read poetry?"
"Why do you like poetry?"
The answer is simple and
involves many reasons:
I appreciate poetry
BECAUSE
...it stimulates my mind,
...it introduces me to new vistas,
...it helps me appreciate poets,
...it helps me to dare and write a poem too.
...it helps me raise new and challenging questions,
...it sometimes helps me make new friends,
...it doesn't take hard work to read a poem,
...it sometimes creates new and unusual desires,
...it makes the world more beautiful,...

ODE TO RUTH WESTHEIMER 1928-2024 (DOCTOR RUTH)
Goodbye to "Doctor Ruth",
long were you in the tooth!
Sex guru from our youth.
you spoke of It the truth,
without being uncouth,
neither sounding aloof.

This Life
In spite of all the danger
Pray to the Heaven's above
Packed in life's container
What's the meaning of?
Applause the final curtain
Taking your final puff
Spectators serving sermons
All in the name of love
Pray to the Heaven's above
Packed in life's container
What's the meaning of?
Applause the final curtain
Taking your final puff
Spectators serving sermons
All in the name of love

Peddler..
So, who will mail black me? I stand still..
You'll never see me rusting am stainless steel..
Every ghetto streets they know me I pay my dues..
Teds and Bundys dread meeting me,
I stand on my knees..
Buffalo buffalo bill I post no bills..
Colony colony I ride on my wheels..
Junkies beg to know me I roam all streets..
Flunkies walk up to meet me, hot on my heels..
Am not a lazy bone I don't feed on debris..
In this business of self destruction I got many deals..
Peddling junkies with pills I got no heal.. ...
