Best Malcolm Poems
Malcolm XIt is not as simple as merely changing one's name
You must understand the cauldron before that came
And the hustler's hair caught fire burning into red anguish
And the water is disconnected to out the wish
Something about a mother's prayer and father's faith
Like all the islands were...

Malcolm Has Immobilized a New TruthDue to his parents’ deaths Malcom mobilizes a new truth
Laughing and cavorting, moving in a frenzy
He is covering up his sadness with faux mirth
His essence cloaking abject melancholy
Laughing and cavorting, moving in a frenzy
Creating an illusion of complacency and acceptance
He is covering up his sadness...

MalcolmI’m pulling this Earth towards me,
as I’m as heavy as the stars,
I feel so out of place,
home only in my scars.
It is a wish, that someday I’d belong,
until then, smile wide and hope I’d be strong.
If only anyone knew, how all of it felt long,
I’ve...

A NOTE FROM MALCOLMA NOTE FROM MALCOLM
My advice is free, and time’s not billable
Try speaking French and I will soon know
Don’t claim a local or a provincial accent
It really does not sound as if heaven-sent
Nor a comment heard such as il fait beau
As the accent is always on...

Soul Mates - Dedicated To My Husband, MalcolmDo you still breathe me in?
Do you still worship me?
You are my air
I worship you
Like in the old days when I ran to you
I followed you
From here to the end of time
Remember us lying on the bed
Listening to Waterfall and making love
Drinking our mudslides
Frozen drinks
Chillers...

Malcolm seemed niceYoung Malcolm was meek, rarely riled,
asking for korma, quite mild,
they all thought him nice,
until ordering rice,
that was where Malcolm went wild.

All Lives MatterRaising the slogans won't make it any better.
Dare to accept the truth,
All lives matter.
Does that sound better,
Islam is the way out,
Quran is the light out.

As from it I...
