Cradled In the Arms of MidnightAloft, the gem was mounted in black velvet skies
A refulgent pearl, surrounded by glistening stars
Cradled in the arms of midnight, it hung as a prize,
as exquisite as a painting, credited as one of Renoir's
Framed by arching branches of a leafless oak,
a sultry mist bowed before...

During Sex I'M Often NakedYou can't make someone love you all you can do
is be someone who can be loved.The rest is up to them.
No matter how much I care, some people just don't care back.
It takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.

Black InventorsPoet: Ken Jordan
Poem: Black Inventors
Edited by: Sparkle Jordan
written: August/2013
Black
Inventors
are
the forgotten,
There's
no mention
of them
in
America's
history
books -
And
school
goes on
as usual,
America,
is
not
telling the
truth -
Like
the lie
they
continue
to tell
about
Christopher
Columbus -
Did he
really
discover
America,
when
Native
Americans
were
already
here?
What
are you
afraid
of
America?
It's time to
re-write
the
history
books;
This time,
include
black
history,
and
all
that we
contributed,
to this
country -
Teach
the children
the truth -
America,
let them
know
that:
Dr. Charles Drew
(a black man)
Invented blood
plasma, the first
blood bank -

Blood DiamondsA stone so beautiful
The gem of gems
This carbon icon
A girls best friend
In many a place mined
All legal and right
To be marketable
To be pretty in sight
On our Jewellery do we wonder
Where ours come from
Is this splendid stone
From a war torn wrong
Most are credited
From...

Roaring TwentiesRoaring Twenties
Nostalgia and age like bacon and eggs,
With buttered toast and jam on the side for breakfast;
And coffee, and a glass of orange juice to drink,
And a memory in-between to rethink.
The day begins with boring continuance:
Of routines, platitudes, and goodwill gestures,
While accepting a life of...

For four long years, I...

The Psychopomp's Embrace
"The Psychopomp’s Embrace"
No judgement
from the fallen
unseen angels
credited
with scores to
safely harbour
lost passing ships
that crush souls
in dark night
ferrying love
the precious token
of graces sorely paid,
the return, a prayer
for the wild at heart
kept in cages
delivered
by the...

The VultureSparkling with precious stones,
Credited for its aboriginal tone
Carpeted with flat grassland and lion-like mountains
Is the land where the vulture reigns.
Celebrated for his greed,
He deprieved all his relations of their needs.
He dances to the rhythmic melody of bribery
And lend...
