no turn offsshe born
without determinating
answer early morning let downs
chasing down
generations of pity
kid hangs out to learn with me
tasking,tainted towels
she lite, ask bite
next day, same height
knews flew up through
her at a frame
unpainted suits, remain
inner prisoners
she bleeds harmony scars
spoons in mixtures
confluence
unoptions ate it...

Tilted LamentsIs it my grief?
That i behold?
That i knoweth ongoing sorrow
Waterless doves?
None other, a city?
Just? As a city dweller?
Dwelling, in mired filth?
Unconquered mime, play!
At once! Be tainting…..
Project at them
Boredom? You wandered…..

Heaven Hate(Heavy, dramatic organ intro with a choir hum)
(Verse 1)
Heaven hates, oh Heaven hates,
The darkness creeping through the gates,
Heaven hates, oh Heaven hates,
The wicked whispers and their fates.
They come around just after eight,
With hungry eyes and hearts that wait,
They cry of faith, a hollow state,
And empty plates, upon their plate.
They seek a muse, a twisted fake,
Their...

Hip HopThe elephant beat so unique
Rhythm and Blues tapping my shoes
Wooden dance floor finest antique
Brown hips that hop keeping the groove
Flamboyant soul is that Monique
Floating rather than walking she moves
Don’t be a vulture on tree top
Join cocoa culture called hip hop...

JUST BECAUSEJust because television is a bore
writing a poem is less a chore
I can live in a scribble where words soar
Minds that ripple the universe forevermore
Because I am envious of your style
Yours is limitless like silver smile
You are cool like a sculptured rock
Turquoise jewel of classic hip hop
Because I think too much all the time
And want...

Unrest WorldUnrest World
Fires cracking
Bombs bombing
People fighting
People debating
Deforestation
All the isms
Weak mindsets
Y'all are decrazed.
Unrest, unrest
Unrest World
Where is the peace
Where is the love
Unrest, unrest
Unrest World
Why can't you ease
Slow down your grudge.
Folks are dying
Folks are crying
Where is the peace
Where is the love?
Many lost their jobs
Things got rough
Things got tough
Enough is enough.
Why can't we eat
Why can't we sleep
Should I...

Childhood illusionWhen I was asleep,
Child hood memories crept in,
As I entered a realm of fantasy,
where childhood's joy was reborn.
Hopping and jumping ,
with wild freedom, untethered and free.
Where smiles stretched across the land,
Where we all sang and jumped into ecstasy,
Where joy and laughter flew in abundance ,
And I felt freedom unlimited.
But suddenly I woke up from the...

Money Tree
In a perfect world
Money would grow on trees
And I’d just reach up,
Pluck off a leaf
And buy anything that I please.
I’d buy toys for me and my friends.
If only grownups could see (like a child)
Everyday’d be Santa’s Day (without end.)
No one would sleep and eat off the floor...
