Premium Member Whose Memories Are These
Whose voices, whose memories are these
That warble in trees, exalting my breeze
Applauding the daybreak's cerulean grin
Where amber ocher designs are floating in

Is that your echo from the cobalt blue sky
Wondering aloud about dawn's tepid sigh
As the morning evoked destiny's knowhow
And birdsongs lauded the blessings of...

Should I Wow You
SHOULD I WOW YOU

Should I essay to wow you I trow
That my words shall be honest I vow
No mere rhymes such as ‘How now brown cow’
But an aesthetic furrow I’ll plough

Then I’ll speak my lines if you’ll allow
As we sit in cool shade neath a...

Premium Member You Turn My Lows Into Highs
Don't know what this guy would do
Without you peeps to brighten my day
It's worth more than all the gold in the world
Just to hear what you all have to say

The difference between a happy and sad day
Between sunshine and cloudy skies
With each of the loving...

Premium Member The Original Mr Shy Guy
Used to be a shy and retiring type
Back then but this is now
Like a Super Hero I burst onto the scene
To share my extensive knowhow

People have never been able to stump me
I'm a master at solving stuff
Like Einstein's theory of relativity equation
That's easy, that really...

I Hate Hoodrats
I hate hoodrats,
To me they are no match.
I hate them with the passion.
I always prayed in the hood,
As a child, that when I got
Grown I would go buck wild
Beating anyone their backend mass,
Because they are low class,
They make sure that the strong,
Black family existence is...

Hypocrisy of Wealth
Absenteeism is never a good thing.
Be on time to face your disparity.
Chances are you will win.
Deciphering is an analytical friend.
Edification to bigger and better things is -
Fascination when the reason is revealed.
Gofer you are not, when you take your work seriously.
Hesitation is not a method...

Brother and the Woman-Yaya Ne Likhasi Translated
Fattened and fattened,he became gigantic
His nails so sharp,like the rodents
The belly you may think,a full pregnancy
And the coughing,my father’s son difficult

Years haven’t gone much
Before marrying selfish woman
Who walks shaking clumsily
Like she got another job,yet my brother

Before dad disappeared to nowhere,and mother
Slowly depleting her prowess
My brother...

Can'T Breathe No More Hate
You sit there with a grimace on your face, when you speak, you speak of a bad taste from a bad place, a history of racism-n-injustices, that can’t knowhow or no way be erased or misplaced, for they continue 2 resurface in every state, black...

Onerous Task Confronted Teachers and Parents
Onerous task confronted teachers and parents

As prospective students
ably ready themselves to matriculate
and/or first set little feet 
inside halls of learning,
I rebroadcast a poem crafted
at the height of Covid-19.

A couple years gone back educators
adaptation regarding coronavirus 
severely impacted on the classroom,
which modifications necessitated school boards 
to...

Netherworld Unearthed Within This Mind
Psyche soaking wet with devout atheism,
this lifetime skeptic now tenuously
linkedin with Unitarianism
attests, said upbringing proffered,
mine credo, gestalt,

leitmotif, sans abstractionism
eludes elucidation, delineation, clarification...
some readers might
dismiss as absurdism
defying established dogma fixed absolutism

millenniums, would be hashtagged heretical,
and such cavalier blithe
apostasy, declared alarmism,
now - twenty first century

Let the Toothless Dog Bark
Let the toothless dog bark 
it wouldn't harm the shark 
Because they continue to embezzle the fund
And crabbing public land
Dollar meant for developing the shanties 
into reputable cities 
Stole by rich becoming richer day by day
Poor languishing in poverty without pay
Urgent alarms for sobriety rings...

The City
The city in my heart
 The city of my dreams
 The city which always seems
 The city which I have lost
 Amidst the shadows of time
 And the crowds of people
 The city which has been buried 
 Under the sea of knowledge and knowhow
...

Better days aged, 
Better days wretched 
Around the corner is bloomer,
Inside the room is the beholder,
Alterations on my robe,makes me reprise, 
All stands for a big fact lies,
Rodney grabs my nail,
Chews and goes away on rail,
Good fashion...

Onerous Task Confronts Teachers and Parents Part Two
Concomitant to foster
misgivings of wretchedness,
I harbor jealousy at young whip smart kids,
who already possess laudatory command

concerning salient technological knowhow,
far beyond paternal parental stage
yet speculate how child raising
could allow, enable and provide
insight into latest cutting edge binary wizardry.

Less impactful upon precocious
boys and girls hungry for knowledge
includes...

Dear Jane
Dear Jane;

My dear sweet animal…We have been left astray. for the strings of mankind torment me so, in my sparrows rusted birdcage.

It may have only been moments that we shared, but that’s more than enough for me.

I feel you understand my pain...For you experience the...
