Clouds mesmerizing me, colors of the sky so free

Sun of morning glory, star uplifting me
Birds...

of two drifting, lost souls
who were unable to define their goals.

Two humans united on...

Dancing with the Devil
Hand we hand we danced the night away.
For I was your queen... or so you had made it seem.

the reasoning the fishing in the trenches
beyond tire swings and monkey wrenches 
follies crawl behind the hanging logos 
of unseen filth across 124th street 

tassels dangled above an oasis 
of fine dining and soiled linen 
over the board rooms covered 
in a mesh of purple...

1.	Shall I narrate you a tale or may be a thousand stories,
Of a lost love and fervent devotion?
Or chronicles of longing and separation?

Why Am I here do you Need me Lord
The reason why we are here,
Worship
The reason why, we’re here,
To give praise

Yet just a...

He prowl very still across 
the calm merky waters 
I can see him and he can 
see me with his big yellow 
eyes his pupils are lime 
green slowly he crawls not

from off his back he crawls 
past the woodstorck...

remember civil rights field

the clouds rushed by I 
remember that day that 
way you walked the way 
you smiled that funny 
way you dazzled me...

knowing full well that casket was 
empty thanking everyone for the 
flowers...
