They Are Not Called Dreadlocks

I love the locks that hang so there
In reddish ropes like Samson’s strength
Other adornments can’t compare
Loosely touching his lower back length
the glorious raiment that’s his hair

I run my fingers through the mane
Feeling the spirit of softness
Nothing here of dread remains
As to my lips the sweetness
Each touch like summer rain

My love is but a tower of

We Need Good Governance

They were not killing the ganja field
They were polluting our land. 
Chemically implementing every thing that grow to feed rastaman
The Prime Minister with his weak invention.
Is no longer able to feed us food without chemical.

Everywhere you go you see.
Rasta selling his weed.
Little does he know. They are loaded with
Genetically engineered seed

Dread locks fell off
Baby a

Goldie Dreadlocks

Who’s been wearing my house slippers,
I wanna know
Somebody’s been steaming up
my bathroom shower window

I wanna know
who’s been sleeping in my bed
Leaving on my pillow,
golden strands of their nappy head

Who done ate the rest of
my leftover roast
Who done scarfed down the last of
the garlic buttered toast

Somebody been creeping 
in and out my door
Somebody been spitting
cherry pits

Orange-Red Dreadlocks

She wore orange-red dreadlocks
Danced on the horizon far away
Setting the woods on fire
Stirring up all kinds of desire

Roosters arose with voices of power
Sleeply pines in silhouette still stood
Dormant in cold and frozen twigs
She stirred the air to warm and play

Happiness she brought
Sent the cold swiftly away

Dreadlocks

Somehow I feel connected to each lock
They remind me of a time before me when black was not just hip hop
They remind me of a movement towards freedom
When we were gaining the momentumm to no longer be oppressed 
To me they represent bold, natural blackness

Symbols of non-conformity and to some
a sign of spiritual royalty
From ancient

Him Wearing Them Knotty Dreadlocks

A ten-foot-high sunflower man
with a gold-capped tooth in his mouth but
there ain't no plan
yet he wears the same old knotty 
dreadlocks again and again
While walking himself through 
Black Folk's yard in that bebop-style
no doubt along the avenue road
while smoking some of that sweet sweet Gunga
Yet, him so full of himself
rasta man young rapper
you rapscallion, did

Dreadlocks

Most unusual clouds this morning
They look like dreadlocks turned 
Gray with streaks of red and pink

Certainly a sky blue sky where 
There are no clouds
I see this as beauty but no one

Told me it is beautiful so who is
Observing this scene through my
Eyes saying this is beauty

There is an order to everything
Flowers
