Dancing Dreamers Dang Range Thing Winging I.T.

It is a teamwork type of thing- 
Ringing the bell so well 
The next mashup of a maxed out bashing of an over flowing cup of mountain water upstream- 
Kings the next castling on the other side of the ring
Ding-ding
Back for more “bling, bling!”  
Onion rings on the side, pretty please!  
Watch how my truck sings as it revs up after a mental rental goes caching ching
Just saying...
Lying, laying, slaying & spraying-
Weighed in like Jayda- WILL SMITH I "lit" my cig-
was fuzzy wuzzy big?  
Failed Trigonometry
Sold Origami
My salami
Is like " Salam Aleiki"  
Hate me please
It could be a breeze
I am NOT on my knees 
Please
Jeez!  
Go TX!

Blooper Scooper Duped Hue Mer

Burrowing and Borrowing- 
Starving but harvesting- 
NOT quite charming but alarming- 
Harming when storming- 
More than a boring warning- 
Performing and conforming- 
Alluring the enduring- 
Touring the reassuring- 
Scurrying and worrying- 
Working NOT twerking- 
Twitching and itching- 
Computer glitching when stitching- 
Missing NOT dissing- 
No hex
No mess
No sex 
No stress 
Wrestling with a nestled Texas style onion ring...
Castling the mastered haphazardly masked task...
Of a vaccinated infatuation ally rally for a new kitchen sink... 
Getting pushed pass the brink by the former owner of a skating rink- because of drinking.

Cheese

Ella Dit......Capture
 finding something reavant
sorta elegant
something worth mentioning
something just to say
stumbling over my words
haven't you heard
or is it just something to say
Il Dil.....Castling
Don't you care that I love you
Most certainty I do
this aint no clever conversation
every word is true

to be

excitedly injustice
awakening stampede
stopping as imbibes
desperate necks
heeling creeks
jumping dashes
merciful joy
i am not there, please hold
the bridle and the hoof
i see nothing of blunders fray
you have fickled my merriment
daring jester
come once again telling me your terror
in what age did god befall as visceral death
teaching young heretics as you
slavery's daughters lost
was rights and lost not providing in class
or dutifully sworn soldiers appearance
castling late blooming testimony

Queen's gambit

Starting with the book move,
Hii, it's pawn to e-four.
Don't act like strangers,
You've seen this move before.

Now my knights came into play,
It's surely an awkward move.
You won't understand my intentions,
And it might hurt you out of blue.

Now I'm cluttered in this position,
And there's no trick under my hat.
But I'm a true and loyal player,
You better believe in that.

It's hard for me to open up,
And castling feels secure.
I've placed my gambit.
Now the next move is yours.

Your bishop slashed me at diagonal,
And i have no good counter,
You say she's not aiming my rook,
But its obvious for me to doubt her.

Between this hustle,
My queen is under threat.
I should have been more careful,
And tried to avoid this bet.

But now I finally realize,
No matter what trick you choose,
You're just a noob to your opps
It's the game you always lose.

Premium Member Where are we going

I give the former partnered portrayals
to the educated minds as their guess.
I take the latter severed betrayals
then divide and conquer as I play chess.

Astrology boards, travel promises,
a Queen amidst Knight's saber sword fighting,
Space Ghost, Klatu, Spock, Vader, Robinsons,
Hollywood's castling Stars, Sci-Fi sighting.

Theology teaches God is divined,
one man, one woman, one watery end.
Prophets, Disciples, Savior of humankind,
Second Coming, Afterlife, we'd Transcend.

Imagine our lives, checkmate--game over,
The Word of God, stalemate--live forever.

A butterfly, aliferous,
of subtle slights, soniferous,
common spirits, days just went by,
aliferous . . . a butterfly.

Low pinnacles alight sought rest
forgiving sun favors spread best
microscope's trial . . . clinical's
nigh shipyard trash, few binnacles.

A game of chess, castling sleight clouds,
floating iced-pawn, a seaboard crowds,
Queen waves her move, column King, guess,
castling sleight clouds, a game of chess.

A sun descends, dusk purple trend,
birds fly inland, soon be darkened,
crater aglow, twilight ascends
dusk purple trend, a sun descends.

Orange drawn night, few shakes be such,
the moonlight trade, silver isn't much,
tours came and left cause show took flight,
few shakes be such orange drawn night.

Will be queen of the world 
I remember
The king of katwe castling
His opponent's queen

Sand Castling the Future

A magnet tumor detected 
I do elide
Stuccato thinking of castle making

Sand washes away as the ocean grows
Montrous, all consuming
They're sitting on ice cream cones
Licking crusty lips

I care not to waste away
My veins are rippled with sound
Gabriel's golden embrace descends on wings
Forever banishing the future

Between the Legs of Market and Street

Grounding teeth against the wollywork 
Memorization doesn't appetite and clause
Matching petulant crashing opposed 
Language and its neighbor
Avenue of bark 
Credible crock croaking a broken moat
Butcher a goat

Drowning why like castling a brook
Finalizing a product 
Like escaping a hurricane queen
Dragging ten mutinies of throat

Trusting in a scratchboard to mimic an answer
What we don't know 
That can television a torch
And repel rocket cocktails

Between the legs of market and street
To scream through a screen
And disrupt sunbelt of orange glo

Castling

What have I done?
I became the speech 
of starless night. 

Oh! I almost melted
hearing God
in you,
not ‘cause of guilt I should’ve owned. 
‘Twas really you, your voice 
inducing ism of greater self.

Show me some 
humility, 
not by telling me
your present.

You were wrong 
when you predisposed 
my past 
has something 
to do with my sorrow.

Do I still have 
pride 
to swallow 
when you’ve already cast 
the first stone?

Ah, whatever you think! 
It matters 
no anymore
for I to my grave 
the sweetness of your tongue
...once mine.

Pastor H F Walters

I forgave them, the anointed flock, rinse them
And wash them, and put them back
To wear your robe, your borrowed diadem
Walk to Golgotha with curse at their back
I forgave them
For they never felt the fire, knew no heat
You covered them
Before they made a prince to walk the street

O could they know black faith coming back, come back
O could they tell the deluge 
And see the white robes above it, coming back
Into the brambled tents, the host of refuge
They would forgive
Had they known you, the cross before the throne 
They would forgive
Their erring pride in one who walked alone

O Christ, what jealousy consume our faint name
In ignorance cage castling
Curtains of glory from tattered rags of shame
What cattle blind in jostling
I forgave them
For by these words they know again your heart
You forgave them
Long ere they forget or love flew apart

I Am Man

I am man
No dictionary can define my legacy
I am man
Defiant of of transgressors destiny
I am man
Something more than mere masculinity
Something corporeal of life's spirituality
I am man

I am man
And no legal scale nor constitution defines me
I am man
More than dreamers and thinkers desire me
I am man
Measureless vastness of finite history
Embrace me in my borderless geography
I am man.

I am man
Not because of my burnt sepia of skin
I am man
Not to be measure by fallen leaves of sin
I am man
Conveyor of dignity, castling love within
Beaten but unbroken, shackled but still to win
I am man

I am man
Do not define me by color, class, or creed
I am man
Defying boundaries riding faith as a steed
I am man
The image of my Creator, stigma for his seed
Through my veins run something more than I bleed
I am man
