Roots And Weeds
One year someone planted a seed
On top of a very large hill
For a year I climbed up
And watered it
The second year it became a sapling
Another year
Spent climbing up
And watering it
Third year it started growing leaves
It had a respectable trunk
Another year
More climbing, more watering
Fourth year the tree was fully grown
But still
Another year
I climbed and watered
The fifth year and the tree was cut down
I tried to climb
And water
But it was too late
So another year passed
The sixth...

Cuts Like a Knife
sometimes it's easy to forget
you are free
don't let doubt place you in shackles
you are free
don't let doubt place you in shackles

Love so true
Be my eternity
My forever love, be my sanity
Oh my sweet sunshine, who burns through my eyes
Surely you will be the reason that my day becomes brighter
Oh those ocean eyes
Stare into my soul and take a deep dive into my heart
Let us grab our surfboards and ride through this wave, called love
I'm high, I'm lifted
I'm on cloud nine and the feelings I have for you cannot be shifted
Grab me by the chin
Make my brown almond shape eyes lock with yours
Oh please let your tongue, lick in a circular rotation around my...
My forever love, be my sanity
Oh my sweet sunshine, who burns through my eyes

Stare into my soul and take a deep dive into my heart
Let us grab our surfboards and ride through this wave, called love

Step out
Arise sleeper and take up your plow.
Prepare your harnesses and oil your tack.
The ground has had its sabbath rest and is become disquieted.
Remove the rocks and rubble, burn the weeds and stubble.
Strike the fallow ground and don't relent.
Dig in and rip complacency away.
From sunrise until darkness covers the land.
The trumpet speaks, the time is right,
The earth rumbles in anticipation.
The sowers are holding the seed
waiting, watching, watching, hoping for broken ground.
The husbandmen and shepherds bounce from...
Prepare your harnesses and oil your tack.
The ground has had its sabbath rest and is become disquieted.
Remove the rocks and rubble, burn the weeds and stubble.
Strike the fallow ground and don't relent.
Dig in and rip complacency away.
From sunrise until darkness covers the land.
The trumpet speaks, the time is right,
The earth rumbles in anticipation.

waiting, watching, watching, hoping for broken ground.
The husbandmen and shepherds bounce from...

Plenum Dominium
I saw the crescent moon quite clear
and did not think I would
since brume of late had been severe
and forecast not so good.
And so it was with great surprise
when no clouds could be seen
when my wet weather jaded eyes
met beams from Queen Selene!
It was a double take I took
through sight in disbelief
at what I felt the Earth forsook
when clouds where gushing grief.
But by the moonlight I was blest
from Luna's sickle shape
apex clipping toward the west...
and heaven stunned agape!
and did not think I would
since brume of late had been severe
and forecast not so good.
And so it was with great surprise
when no clouds could be seen
when my wet weather jaded eyes
met beams from Queen Selene!
It was a double take I took
through sight in disbelief
at what I felt the Earth forsook
when clouds where gushing grief.
But by the moonlight I was blest
from Luna's sickle shape
apex clipping toward the west...
and heaven stunned agape!

Many
Please look around you
Everything made in this world
Is made by hundreds
We think we are one
When in fact we are millions
Making this one world
A word is not one
It is made of few letters
To make just one word
Rejoice every day
Knowing you are not a word
You’re one of many
This is (A 5-7-5 haiku) not one but many
Everything made in this world
Is made by hundreds
We think we are one
When in fact we are millions
Making this one world
A word is not one
It is made of few letters
To make just one word
Rejoice every day
Knowing you are not a word
You’re one of many
This is (A 5-7-5 haiku) not one but many

An Ode To A Sista Queen
Her face glows like morning sunlight
warm, inviting and bright
Her hair is like Angela D
and reminds me I still fight to be free
Her clothes reflect the vitality of our original home
the birthplace of the human genome
Her bearing is like that of royalty
like back when we showed Egypt our loyalty
Her essence is as stimulating as caffeine
keep on doing you my beauty Sista Queen
warm, inviting and bright
Her hair is like Angela D
and reminds me I still fight to be free
Her clothes reflect the vitality of our original home
the birthplace of the human genome
Her bearing is like that of royalty
like back when we showed Egypt our loyalty
Her essence is as stimulating as caffeine
keep on doing you my beauty Sista Queen

When Shadows Play
To stand by is the greatest gift,
Seeing light and dark's growing rift,
And to bid farewell to dying twilight,
Welcoming the return of night
To walk 'neath oak, where shadows play,
And listen for the meadowlark’s lay,
Music for the Cimmerian and dark,
Echoes in the midnight's stark
To satiate the aristocratic abyss,
And take pleasure in this ebony bliss,
Where starlight gleams in whispered sighs,
And the night unfolds with silent cries
In the heart of darkness, we find our grace,
As...
Seeing light and dark's growing rift,
And to bid farewell to dying twilight,
Welcoming the return of night
To walk 'neath oak, where shadows play,
And listen for the meadowlark’s lay,
Music for the Cimmerian and dark,
Echoes in the midnight's stark
To satiate the aristocratic abyss,
And take pleasure in this ebony bliss,
Where starlight gleams in whispered sighs,
And the night unfolds with silent cries
In the heart of darkness, we find our grace,

breaking the universe with you
Meet me by the ocean
and we'll scream into the salted air
I'll bury you in a sand castles
and watch as the tide laps
at your toes
and you feign panic
that you can't escape
I'll dig you out as we laugh
into the turning tide
and you shove me
into the frigid winter shallows
and I gasp at how alive
the cold makes me feel
I won't tell you
how the ocean terrifies me
and elates me as we hold hands
on the waters edge
I think you know what it means
to be both big and small ...
and we'll scream into the salted air
I'll bury you in a sand castles
and watch as the tide laps
at your toes
and you feign panic
that you can't escape
I'll dig you out as we laugh
into the turning tide
and you shove me
into the frigid winter shallows
and I gasp at how alive
the cold makes me feel
I won't tell you
how the ocean terrifies me
and elates me as we hold hands
on the waters edge
I think you know what it means
to be both big and small ...

Simple Pendulum
What in the name of a wee man is this?
I just want to feel this cool breeze as I freeze due to..
Me, sitting here with some very few who don't go by #Me too..
Even though I am a rebel, I won't lose my fate
I need a single or two schedules for each an every date
I have lived for years, decades counting my days
I will only survive those days calculating everything I can say
And since my deeds I must pay
While the Sunshines I guess I have to make my hay..
On a very cool surface at night,...
I just want to feel this cool breeze as I freeze due to..
Me, sitting here with some very few who don't go by #Me too..
Even though I am a rebel, I won't lose my fate
I need a single or two schedules for each an every date
I have lived for years, decades counting my days
I will only survive those days calculating everything I can say

Espresso’s Caffeine _ with "Adagio"
a sensual passing with espresso's caffeine
drifting in warmth to a divine paradise
death's little silence and innuendos
rapt by clouds into a euphoric quietus
where angels merge into intimate sleep
cradled with melodies of a sweet embrace
and nature's strings as oboes wing
closing eyes in sedating solace
with unquenchable espresso's caffeine
drifting in warmth to a divine paradise
death's little silence and innuendos
rapt by clouds into a euphoric quietus
where angels merge into intimate sleep
cradled with melodies of a sweet embrace
and nature's strings as oboes wing
closing eyes in sedating solace
with unquenchable espresso's caffeine
