In his last minutes of life, he closed his eyes
where shadows appeared like blackbirds
beneath the moonlight of lost thoughts
above the misty graveyard of his soul
Ghostly apparitions of sadness haunt an old mind

Past illusions of love

Whose faces are etched in the fractured glass of the heart
and...

It's music to my ears
when night falls quietly enveloping twilight
and the sun conceals itself from view
from my body rising in dawn's light
to the fall at days end into darkness
where I rest 

My mind unwinds from the clanging of men sweating
with sore feet and aching backs
My...

Five thousand pairs of black wings halt
And fell from the cold Arkansas sky
In one district alone the default
In Beebe did the feathered creatures die
And while the flock above them perished there
The fireworks flew all wingless on the eve
Of the coming year, and without reprieve
From the...

I see a Neon Lady,
green rain from the clouds.
Yet she is pure evil,
this engraved upon her crown.
Six hundred million people,
into dust on scorched ground.
I see a Neon Lady,
green rain from the clouds.

I see a Neon Man,
bad rain from the clouds.
He's draped in red linen,
his evil...

~~~ Naked Truth ~~~
We often feel
The society is filled with
Love, affection, adoration and romance.
But, the flabbergasting naked truth is something
different.
It is not the apparent.
The world is full of turmoils,
Even a son parents spoil.
Conceit and complacency are everywhere.
Faith and trust are nowhere.
People treat their child as...

In pursuit of imperfect perfection,
she slowly turned every lucky star blind,
drowning in constant chores from obsession, 
unable to appease her stormy mind.

Promises ascend against perception, 
nothing halts fixed rituals from spinning,
as turmoils of time twirl through aggression, 
she sees the devilish mantra winning. 

What is...

Thine eyes keep me awake
In thine forest I found thy lake
Free birds playing with gay
Chirping upon thy nest's hay

Thine eyes let me see through 
A gem crystallized in wonders
Animals gaze at a wake through
Thy name blossoms with ponders

Vibrant rivers wave along
In thine bed where title...

Creasing Out Happiness

My little luxuries of life I refuse to barter
With Solomon's or Queen Sheba's treasures
Its ecstasy bewitches and beguiles me
As pirates to laden vessels to surfeit

Scrubbed and freshened from bath salts
I prepare for my vintage treat
The shaded candles are lit while
The fragrance of jasmine...

Persistent soul clings like chime.
Though not all things are bound to stay,
Goodbye is not the end of time.

Though poem may lose its rhyme
And turmoils may block your way,
Persistent soul clings like chime.

Clouds above could turn lime,
Still the sun never lose its ray,
Goodbye is not the...

It is not whether you can a take a punch or not; but how you deal with the emotional turmoils presented throughout your life that determines your true strength.
Silence does not define a person as weak, but often, much stronger because they can carry themselves...

To know that once in a world wrought with pain,
Two lovers found peace in a meadow warm.
And though class and station would not retain,
They crossed love's bridge like sparrows in a storm.
Time flows like tides moving towards and away,
And tears from the heart wash out...

The melody of delight
extricate themselves
from the practicality of life

You glisten, beam
with excitement
as days of reckoning

blindly pass through
ecstasy clouded by
persistent turmoils

surrounding perpetuity,
utilizing deliverance.
Daily drills bring pleasures

that linger throughout brilliance
as dazzling behemoths
try to replicate

serenity's musical escapades
that bounce around and
reluctantly espouse

sounds drifting into
minds exuberance....

Foreign Travel- Portugal

It is all that is unspoken that gives a  place its atmosphere.....the endless turmoils that come from living....peaceful Celts conquered by Romans 
after centuries of resisting. The conquerers monuments still dominate large paved squares .....wide mosaic walking malls with outdoor cafes set...

 I am a Son of an African American
I run
my turmoils taints the history books
yet people give me evil looks
I run
I choose
Yet I am 
Black and blue, this is my physical hurt

Been given a name by my parents James
This is true yet still I'm black...
