Weeping Skies
Please pray for Los Angeles!!!
The skies are so gray,
with such a dark gloom,
I can smell the rain,
I hope it comes very soon.
The air is so windy,
The Clouds are set,
Hoping Raindrops fall,
Thus far, nothing yet.
The gray Skies are ready,
Perception predicts Rain,
Of All of the burning Forrest,
I pray this in Jesus Name.
Los Angeles is now Burning,
As an arsonist runs free,
Oh, Please stop these fires,
I beg this and I plea.
As the burning slows down,
It's a sad...

Flip!
She's a work of art
She brightens up my day
She's my Queen of hearts
I love her in every way
(Then... She slept with me best mate)
She's an ugly fart
Causing me affray
She broke me bleedin' heart
How could she betray
She brightens up my day
She's my Queen of hearts
I love her in every way
(Then... She slept with me best mate)
She's an ugly fart
Causing me affray
She broke me bleedin' heart
How could she betray

IT is these times
For the elders say that in each of our lives, 🙏 that we have to make a real hard decision, on what we want to deal with and what we won't deal with in our lives. For there will come a time when we have to learn how to navigate real hard through. The process of just only realizing it is necessary to eliminate the nonsense, that comes with some people's self centered drama. For all of and confusion and madness of causing nothing but insanity 😭 to our lives. I'm gonna lay this down for those who have to learn the hard way, how to navigate through the very negativity of some...

Eagle sails Above
Took over their house
Eagle fans stand tall and proud in the crowd push me a tush you can’t stop me
Flying a silver bird into Hollywood
Land on asphalt play on lab grown grass
Look across the stadium all I see is Kelly green
I can’t see Jack Nicholson in the front row
Stars scattered about not paying attention
To what is going on an Eagle sails above
As a Ram gets lost in the defense
Hurts me soo good
Hurts me soo good
Saquon is so good in Hollywood
Saquon is not...

Hand and Eye
My little guy has got the hand and eye
See a shape and put your hands in place
To receive what I’m delivering
As it’s coming in…depth perception kicks in
Two points on a map and intersect where you should be
He sees the ball and anticipates where
And what direction
The passing wind can have an effect
You have to put that into the equation
Split second decisions between hand and eye
When you hawk that ball and hunt it down
It ends up positive with clapping all around
Next thing you know you helped...
See a shape and put your hands in place
To receive what I’m delivering
As it’s coming in…depth perception kicks in
Two points on a map and intersect where you should be
He sees the ball and anticipates where
And what direction
The passing wind can have an effect
You have to put that into the equation
Split second decisions between hand and eye
When you hawk that ball and hunt it down
It ends up positive with clapping all around
Next thing you know you helped...

Hope
Hope can be elusive.
Ducking and hiding
when we hallucinate.
Hope is there though!
Summon it out of hiding
when there’s clarity.
Hope will not seek us out,
rather it requires us
to find it, and ensnare it.

Vainglorious
Touched by time, life feels moved
Grooves form on the blightless skin
It's strong and firm but not improved
Yet in the scars there can be found kin
It was tried yet craving for more
Through the suspicions unjustified
That something wicked has come to bore
A hole in the crevices of its hide
But in the wake of the storm
The slaughter soon took form
A soul stripped of its sacred hold
And it trips, it kneels, ready to fold
No illness came to bring it low
But mere vainglorious pride
From inward sprung the blow ...
Grooves form on the blightless skin
It's strong and firm but not improved
Yet in the scars there can be found kin
It was tried yet craving for more
Through the suspicions unjustified
That something wicked has come to bore
A hole in the crevices of its hide
But in the wake of the storm
The slaughter soon took form
A soul stripped of its sacred hold
And it trips, it kneels, ready to fold
No illness came to bring it low
But mere vainglorious pride
From inward sprung the blow ...

Worth so much more
I'm worth so much more
I've seen the worst inside
I'm worth so much more
I've beaten myself with pride
There's no turning back
no time to sway off track
I know what's hidden in my core
these lies won't faze me anymore
I'm worth so much more
That face who can't discover
I'll stump that pride to the floor
cause my time for it is over
YEAH I'm worth so much more
this proirity for all to see
I'm worth so much more
the only option is to look at me
There's no turning back
No no no space...
I've seen the worst inside
I'm worth so much more
I've beaten myself with pride
There's no turning back
no time to sway off track
I know what's hidden in my core
these lies won't faze me anymore
I'm worth so much more
That face who can't discover
I'll stump that pride to the floor
cause my time for it is over
YEAH I'm worth so much more
this proirity for all to see
I'm worth so much more
the only option is to look at me
There's no turning back
No no no space...

Amongst the tree of life
Would you like to take a walk through the trees of life, for let's sit here as the morning mist rest upon the very, texture of our skin as it fills us with natures aviance of it's beauty. THAT grows far and beyond our own imagination as we are just running through and out the forest. For it's here in the morning of the dawn of transition, that we have been given a chance to enjoy this time of deep meditation, away from the negativity and drama and confusion and chaos of the world. 🌎 THAT we shall see the eclipse of the truth of the chaos, that has gone through society 😭 as it...

Little fingers
Little fingers on my palm
Crawl up on my arm
Dance upon my senses
Creep in between you can’t
Deny their innocence without
Defenses not yet brought upon
Crawl up on my arm
Dance upon my senses
Creep in between you can’t
Deny their innocence without
Defenses not yet brought upon

Invoke Happiness
I stabbed myself repeatedly in the stomach about 3 times
there was no pain
there was no blood
instead, a greenish black goo oozed out onto the floor
A sign of relief
I was eradicating all negative energy from my body
this built up from years of anger, hostility, rage, hatred, tension and bitterness
surrounding yourself with people who bring you down
make a change, create and release the positive vibes within
associate with like minded individuals who love to invoke happiness
there was no pain

My Muse of Poetry
Not all the worlds belong to me
Not all the words set me free
What the heart loves
is of will
I just free some words
to confine its spill.
****
A time, my words
on my papers sashaying
the shape to me alluring
the tone of their steps
I hear
as they are dancing
the music they are following
the soul, in a trance, just listens
without interfering.
****
A time, along with my Muse
we keep to each other
our hearts baring
secrets sharing
silently, knowingly connecting.. ...
