Higher learning journey
CUNY Medgar Evers College mark
Among the theories and concepts
Believing who I am and success bounds
Achieving through the pitfalls
When others said I won’t, I continued until shall was complete
Maneuvering making breakthroughs
Taking a Civil Rights stand
Commitment imminent demand
Medgar Evers himself being a man distinct and powerful
Being the product enriched in MEC of M-Mission, E-Excel and C-Commitment
Well communicated through the MEC eyes
Tomorrow came my purpose
Today only a realize
Combination circulation of the Mind, Philosophy and Thought
Goodness and influence
Stepping out on the Medgar Evers College walk
Essence, Scholastic and beyond in success

Great reverence to Cosmos ! I am humble Earth,
rotating on axis ! Around Sun revolving,
obeying the Universal laws, always in mirth.
I am supporting both living and non-living.
Cosmos with galaxies is beyond perception.
Just taking a glance on night sky, it’s marvellous !
On my bosom, now life is on circulation.
Cosmos gifted natural wealth ! Oblivious !
Dear Cosmos, I am Earth : Thankful-grateful to you
I took birth from you, may be through evolution !
You are beautiful and most mysterious too.
Boundless Cosmos runs on continued extension.
I hold nano space in Cosmic territory.
Yet I feel proud occupying this position.
Humans are the best products in Earth's history,
performing quest in Cosmic Revolution.
To Honourable Cosmos paying my tribute.
Like to send a message on Global Unity
One religion to accept : HUMANITY.
I bow to Great Cosmos ! I’m trivial, minute.
I Celebration in the Year 2000
Cultures combine with cornucopia chalices
Spinning with starry spices steaming dreams
All together with pollination of feather flowers
Flowing with global glowing hope harvests
We capture watercolor waterfalls words
From freedom chests echoing expressions
With experiences exalting joyful gemstones
Teaching circulation of time's dancing chapters
We interlock internally with orchestra grace
Where world's writers inscribe soul scrolls
II Desolation in the Year 2001
Insane airplanes fire and flame wanton wars
From unknown blistering hate death's fate
Buildings burn with smoky skeletons
Tomb's teeth bleed scythe seeds upon
aghast eyesight halting worldwide scarred souls
Ghosts of time's crimson crimes question peace
From horror history halls that crumble with calls
Ringing culture's forever communication chairs
Within time's decorative trusting chambers only
exist with sweating escorts to eagle engine exits
Ice, what do I imagine.
So far away, I’m floating.
At a distance, I see
the problem, but can’t
make it out. Will my lights
go out; will I freeze?
Blanketed by ice, arctic
circulation - thank the Lord
I have another body
to keep me warm.
Ice falling from frigid sky;
the tempest of crystals.
Will I survive this attack
to the South as the North
L A U G H S!
Stuck in ice, on T O P
of a hill, with curvy driveway.
New car underneath cover.
Here comes the ice, the bite
from a monster storm -
the North laughs with
twinkling eyes. The shelves
are empty in the stores.
But see me, cousin, with
icy brows, frozen fingertips,
no lights, no television.
I’m floating on the sea;
can’t make out what
will become of me. Woe
is me. I’ve eaten chicken
fingers in frozen form.
I’m an animal. Electricity.
This tempest hasn’t even warmed,
but the warning from my dreams
is on fire; glacier imaginations
inside my head - icicles form.
Survival of the fittest Southerner;
a crack of thunder, ice, ice wonder.
Floating, at a distance, cousin.
my honey dates nuts,
his not for circulation,
wears hot red plaid pants
For soldiers moment, let's get permission
Look at propeller and let's take a lesson
Come and let's burn with the fire of love
Let's reach to throne saying fellow fellow
Let's get into circulation and watch
Before saying Alas let's say Allah
There is no god but Allah
There is no god but Allah
There is no god but Allah he
Mornings and nights don't stop pass by
The capital which is your life is running out
Look at the nightingales they are crying out
Dear rosebud open up, season is passing by
Fellow fellow fellow fellow
Dear passenger stop a while and listen to me
Caravan is going you don't stay back
World beauty whom is called Joseph
Conquered today travel of heart
Fellow fellow fellow fellow
Written by Haci Tahsine Hanim
Translation Onur Ünlü
Mustn’t I write once today
even if
I’ve not much to say
It is what I must do
Use a jackhammer
let the pavement vibrate
with my pastel sky sneakers
somehow or another
give the illusion that I can move
the earth
I will be lying on a table
getting a massage
not a nicety. I really,
really need circulation
until I can see the man
with the stethoscope
Helplessly my body
from head to toe
in enmity. Medi…care!
Focused on the thirty day
wait to see new doc
so I can stick out my tongue
and sound like a hypochondriac
will I make his day
or will the cogs in his lids
be going round and round
in his head
Well, seems I’ve said too much
Just wanted to stay in touch
“ahhh….ahhh. My tongue’s red, Doc.”

Can you feel heels and laughter spin,
rotating and dizzy on scattered dots?
Throwback beat in the air is blasting
music and bodies stay in circulation.
Rotating and dizzy on scattered dots,
nothing can compare to this dance.
Melodic transfusion revitalizes the soul.
Throwback beat in the air is blasting,
a snapshot of every couple before them.
Longing electrifies those neon panels.
Music and bodies stay in circulation,
never enough feather boa smooches.
Dark euphoria dresses up that disco ball.

"By the squeaky old gate that tomorrow will find,"
kindness is a necessary handkerchief:
convex lips to meet mine with gentle understanding
words that tenderize as a snarling babe sedated by mother's milk
Please wait for me there
never minding fallen appearances
spider veins spindled in my corporation - bogus skins -
depleted gums, haunted eyes
Extend a posy, a leaf of scripture, a lump of sugar
be impressed at the flounce of this wisteria skirt
and silver-studded circulation stockings
in remembrance of my blush
a scraggly
beard down to his knees
been there long
and praying
same old prayers from long ago
sans circulation

The spiritual world is not real
But psychological defence
I know it brings relief and heal
To a certain kind of extence
But I stand by formal reality
Forms make the content real
Otherwise no personality
Can appear and appeal
I don’t argue the fantasy
Its great to have some mysteries
But it’s a play of fancy
A comprehensive bliss
We quite enjoy and treasure
Still that desire burns
I need the formal measure
Another life of forms
That once have turned to dust
The same genes combination
Can it revive my past
Break through the circulation?
I’m tired of rituals to repeat
I want to make it clear
The only thing I need
Is time, when you were here
I’m dreaming of release
Its natural to think and say
Come down to me, please
And take me straight away.
Let me tell you lady ,
His door is closed ,
Through negative actions you became air .
He doesn’t care about nerves or circulation shared.
He was done with you when you installed monster close to your bed .
His cries for help you never cared ,
The little demons that you always sent
To pinch , to torture to undermine
Are dead .
And in his mind you were put to rest
So rest assure .
