The Coming
Yelling cursing, noise level terror
Then he hits her
She cries
Things get quiet, then it starts again
Locked in his room, the boy sits on the floor next to his bed
That's the place he goes when they go at it
Mother & Alien, this man/boyfriend
This thing that watches TV or it's i-phone and drinks long cans of malt liquor in the dark
Sometimes the Alien is there when his mother isn't
The Alien doesn't speak
The Alien drinks, beats mother & watches TV
The boy knows that he's lucky the Alien doesn't beat on him
Other Aliens have...

Education
The minute I chose to continue my education
A lot of things began to change for me
I experienced a different kind of aspiration
Which instantly grew a new curiosity
It stated a thirst for knowledge and understanding
Through books and conversations with friends
For it was one of the ways to help my advancing
In the area of self improvement to make amends
Education also served as a constant reminder
That things are always changing and evolving
Keeping up with the hustle of the daily grinder
And It also helped me be better...

If I Could Leave One Legacy ( after Emily Dickinson )
If I could leave one legacy
for future generations -
I would alter each destiny
with available education;
That decisions stem from facts
viably based in reason
verses illiterate frustration
in politics and religion
If I could leave one legacy
for future generations
I would introduce the poetry
of every Holy compilation
That thorough wisdom be gained
from an ancient form of art
verses inaccurate translations ...

Too many
I have had plenty of many moms,
some witches, which is not that bad,
many hags, who had made me sad.
So many moms so little differences...
Some such bad opinions to share,
some much good ideas to spare.
I can recognize them with a glare.
I can sort them by a simple affair.
I spot all of them here and there.
Waiting at my classroom door...
Trying to read my thoughts.
Aiming to reach me in a hunt.
Moms should never get close
to their children teachers, ever!
Our planets are too far away...
some witches, which is not that bad,
many hags, who had made me sad.
So many moms so little differences...
Some such bad opinions to share,
some much good ideas to spare.
I can recognize them with a glare.
I can sort them by a simple affair.
I spot all of them here and there.
Waiting at my classroom door...
Trying to read my thoughts.
Aiming to reach me in a hunt.
Moms should never get close
to their children teachers, ever!
Our planets are too far away...

Who to believe?
At psychology's door lay the psyche
With all its components in a squabble
Trying to mesh the flat with the spikey
Like a mason with nightmarish cobble.
A priori psychosis or maybe a poet,
That old commodore of the metaphor,
Knowledge needed a shaman to show it
With a sack of rune bones for keeping score.
But now we revere the great PhD.,
And all of the essays they have written
As progress must be made academically
With ideation that's expertly shitten...
Like plenty from cornucopia's horn
Or a chute blowing out G.M.O. corn!
With all its components in a squabble

When Worlds Collide
Her world
at that moment
was her friends;
their animated conversation,
the joy of movement,
perhaps too,
somewhere,
thoughts of unfinished homework
an unreciprocated crush,
her parents' marriage or divorce,
maybe some musical artist I don't know the name of.
My world
at that moment
was begrudged playground duty
Wondering how I was going to get copies made,
when my prep time had been cancelled all week
And more immediately,
guessing the airline
of a plane flying overhead.

Writing Gone Wrong
Reflections on gratitude,
and griefs of ghosts past --
Unruly mind pulled from what is required,
focus smashed into shards of hurt
and memories of a death well lived.
Hours perish.
No matter how I try to train the intellect
it drops into a bottomless emotional abyss,
words turning from academia
and serving only sentiment --
I cling to the cliffside, crying
trying
to hoist my
thoughts from the gloom
but they’re so
heavy and I’m
falling and I need to
get out
and I
can’t get out
I...

fear of being in trouble at school ran pretty deep
under the bedclothes I’d play with my imaginary friends and, fearing tomorrow, and hoping this night never ends, I’d fall asleep

I Pledge Of Allegiance
This world is progressing very fast and somehow, I will have to say in the wrong direction, what was once looked upon as moral decenary has been tainted with the new order of comprised political views, or religion depravation. We tend to live our lives by why we type one keystroke at a time or allowing our brain cells to be debased of intellectual stimulation.
The youth, who are the gems of our future are caught in culprit of this New World order ideology. Accepting the corrupt views of what was known from the beginning of time, man and woman, marriage, rearing your children...

Dancing On The Fallen Petals Of Spring Blossoms
Dancing On The Fallen Petals
Of Spring Blossoms
William lies in his dorm room spindling fantasies of the apple of his eye. He imagines the sparkle of love in her whiskey eyes. Images of her flash like sun spots in his soul. He rises from his reverie.
He enters the school cafeteria. Having a girl’s school nearby affords him hope for love. And there is the nymph of his dreams sitting at the table in her cheerleader’s outfit. He has fallen in love with her. He has never loved a girl before. But the feelings he has for her feel very real and deep. He says, “Hi,...
