are you busy looking for reasons to loathe life and the world?
are you busy looking for reasons to love life and the world?
какая свобода хранится внутри?
turn the heart inside-out and see
the pulp of life shakes loose

The Goddess of DU -- - -For the Comp
I contemplate her many works
I ponder her many talents
And I am in awe
It is mana from heaven
Inspiration flows from her pen
And I am speechless
She has the voice of an angel
And sometimes a Hell's Angel
I listen intently to every word
She sings with her heart
With passion and love
Can't stop myself singing along
An accomplished musician
Is there anything she can't play
I am insanely jealous
A professional poetry performer ...
I ponder her many talents
And I am in awe

With passion and love
Can't stop myself singing along
An accomplished musician
Is there anything she can't play

Closing Books
Some times closing a good book
Brings sadness that it is finished
Books we close gently and fondly
They talk to us even after they close
And, in time we may re-open them
Reading again, from the beginning
Despite knowing the ending already
I don't believe in book burning
I still have a copy of Mein Kampf
Sitting uneasily in between the
Bible, the Satanic Bible and the Koran
On the same shelves sits Steinbeck
Poe, Shelly, Spike Milligan, Bukowski
I have very catholic tastes and needs
Currently reading Dr Jordan...

Be Not
Be not Grains of Sand to see for Time holds not Infinity, our
Hands may grasp Eternity, our Life is short upon this World.
Be not Doves and Pigeons burdened, break the Cage, release the Birds, when
Only then, birdsong be heard and Angel’s Wings shall be uncurled!
Cages on which wrath incurred and into Hell we should he hurled!
Heaven’s Rage shall be unfurled!
Be not Starving Dogs’...

Maybe tomorrow
I used to run,
used to play all day outside
beneath a scorching sun.
I was building strength
while having fun.
Losing hours, but still I'd won.
Using new found power, finding
new bruises in every shower.
Climbing roofs to
soak in views
and getting grass stains each time I'd
slide or plunge
down green hills to catch that ball.
New trails each day just for
thrills, our goal after all.
Street lights spoke to us
before we had phones to call ...

Jamaica
Where All The Rivers Run
‘Twas God’s Hands left a piece of clay
When He created earth.
But no one knew its worth
Until it swelled along the bay
One bright and splendid morn:
That’s how my land was born.
No fairer isle have eyes beheld,
Columbus made his boast,
Comparing coast to coast;
None with such beauty appareled—
A wood and water place
...

THE LONG HAUL
From my mind I still see and feel your body as I see your face and feel you in the depth and deepness of my body and soul for you bring to my mind a scene of us in our very first outer and inner encounter as one spiritual soul, for there were no insecurities for we each have our flaws and imperfections from our own exchanges within life and the world, but there at that very moment it was you and me were there were no illusions nor disguises of wearing a mask of distraction hiding behind false lies. ...

MY STAR
I was a child when I first met you in my dreams
Free playing by the river, catching the tadpoles in your tiny hands
Insisting the birds and butterflies were yours to care for, that they spoke with you
Loved by you as you were their princess, to care for all of the creatures to weak to care for themselves
You insisted on making by hand a home for the fairies to land
Gathering the twigs and leaves,the greenest grass, the longest blades
Soft enough to make natures angels a place where when you went to care for them they had a place to sleep, a place they could call...
Free playing by the river, catching the tadpoles in your tiny hands
Insisting the birds and butterflies were yours to care for, that they spoke with you
Loved by you as you were their princess, to care for all of the creatures to weak to care for themselves

Gathering the twigs and leaves,the greenest grass, the longest blades

CRAVING YOUR DEEPNESS
Here we are you and I face to face and eye to eye one mind and one heart and one spiritual soul experiencing a inner shifting of our very depth and deepness of our bodies and our souls, as we go through the process of our inner affliction of a wonderful addiction of seduction in mind and heart and soul of our souls, for the true potential is constantly there in the shadows of the darkness of our very soul of our souls build from a deep and passionate love from the mind heart and soul.

Rise & Grind
For a good portion of my life, I was told that I would never amount to much and for a portion of my life, I actually believed it.
I mean, I have a high school education, I did drugs for the majority of my young life and early adult hood, I gave up on many of my dreams because of poor choices and even spiraled into depression and attempted suicide.
But, at the end of the day, all that negativity that tried to beat me down and place me six feet under both figuratively and literally, couldn’t defeat me.
My determination to provide myself, my children and my family a better life is...
