Eyes are the windows of a soul and they say ‘Love is blind’
But how do you describe colour to a sightless person?

Such depths to your violet eyes
The windows of your Soul
A flickering source of emotions
Speaking volumes ~ though sightless 

Not limited by vision
Not obscured by...

I once knew a poet named Carlene.
               Whom you would assume was quite serene.

I see what’s happening here…and I know it isn’t right…
We have a government doing everything it can to paint this country white.

A country where only one color is accepted as important…
one gender, one religion…one sexual preference-straight…
but I refuse to join them down their rabbit hole...

True Colors
Enough is now enough,
so I will rip down 
the pictures you have of me,
that are painted with hate and anger.

Now its my turn to paint!!!
and trust me,
I will use all your bitterness 
and anger as my paint,
to expose your true colors ....

True Colors
You said you are so unlike among the others,

Your sexuality is query and might be sick to others.

They may sometimes don’t understand how you feel,

You deliberately show emotions that are never ever sealed.

 

It takes trillions of guts to be like you,

Honesty and being real...

They say if you lose yourself, 
you will yourself in the end. 
A better life.
Better friends.
Isn't that what this journey is all about?
Isn't that what life holds to sprout?
All in all, it's a soul searching mission 
from which you will never need permission.
The very core...

A Poet's True Colors
Sometimes a whisper becomes a shout
Found in the words that we write
The silence is broken, it has to come out
In the colors of black and white

These colors it seems know how we feel
For they somehow give us a voice
Emotion is found on the tip of...

In True Colors -Anacreontic Verse
Let us color
the colors
in their right
shades and hues;

Is white, white?
Or, red, green 
and blue, too?
Red is red but
Green is not green--
It’s yellow and blue,
As yellow is
red and green.

Black is black,
It's in black and white
Black as night
White as a ghost,
Not black and blue,
You get the blues
Out...

THE BLOOD HAS SHED 
IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME 
FEEL THE INTRUDING LEAD

THE DRAINAGE NOT OF MY HANDS 
BUT FLOWS DOWN MY BACK 
IT WAS ONLY IN THE SANDS 
WHERE YOU PLANNED YOUR ATTACK

EXECUTED WITHOUT FLAWS 
WITH NO ISSUES AT HAND 
YOU DUG DEEP...

"Nine Inch Nails, Ten Pins and the Purl Stitch"



She takes the cake 
they offer, chewing too rapidly, 
she Shrews when she speaks 
I’ll beat warpath drums, she says,

I’m a groper ... goody two shoes

mouth wide open
songs problematic 
she's done and she's gone
