Genie Poems

Higher Ground

Every time I turn my radio on
I hear the same old song
and I await good news from abroad today
especially a change is on the way
but I don't believe all they say
as how can they see eye-to-eye
or meet face-to-face
when east looks east and west looks west
in this so-called human race
putting power in the hands
of people who

Parasomnia

This paralyzing Dream inebriates me,
intoxicated by Death’s perfume,
I don’t believe I’m here to battle my
Demons, I’m here to keep them 
safe and sacred, reach them
toward’s Heaven’s skies, raise and
teach them about Heaven’s signs
Is it sacrilegious and blasphemous
or the way God would treat his 
Creation?

Valerie prayed I rose from a lala,
prayed I grant her wishes and
replace

In The End

While the universe is ever-expanding
life on earth becomes even more demanding
despite a few one or two
world-shattering improvements
man is still wallowing
in the proverbial primordial
and if this road he insists on following
our future looks severely bleak
as where once we were happy winning
we're now all on a losing streak
yet history has taught him nothing
that and his memory is

Djinn Martini

"Careful with the ethanol,"
Said a fume of whisper hush.
As a thundered bolt and fire ball,
Engorged the moment with a rush. 

The itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny, yellow polka-dot martini, 
Lit my bokeh mind and eyelids tender soft.
Astigmatism, couldn't see the genie,
Who puffed up in the rush and coughed. 

"Cover your mouth, you elemental,"
I sneered at the legless haunt,
Dental

Three rock magical journey

I hold three magic rocks, in my hand 
Rolling them over and over and over 
Leaving this reality behind, far behind 

Rolling the first magic rock, a stage unfolds, 
Where secrets of magic are daringly told. 
With a flick of the wrist and a glint in the eye, 
A world of illusion begins to fly

The Genie

If you had a genie in a bottle

and it told you that you could make any 3 wishes

You would not wish for gold

you would not wish for riches

you would not wish for fame.

You would wish for wars to end

Student loans to be forgiven

poverty to be fixed 

equality to be spread.

and the genie would stop you

The Galactic Genie

He travels through the Universe 
Hopping from galaxy to galaxy 
After doing what must be done 
Stopping from one star system to another 
Seeking out habitability for his super consciousness 
Turning lifelessness into life 
Each planet spinning with the stuff that dreams are made of. . .   
His dreams made manifest with mysticism

Genie In The Bottle

The genie possesses infinite wishes 
& is only contained by the bottle
The bottle is but an illusion full of hollow 
dreams posing as aspirations 
waiting to be attained or fulfilled 
Matter maintains a shape conducive to 
thoughts believed to be real
but only acts according to strength 
of the will
It is as a man thinketh so

Sorry Genie

Sorry Genie

The Reason
You think
Nothing's Perfect...

Is because you 
Imagine 
You're in 
Charge.

No.

You don't
Get 
Your wish.

Genie Of Love

Your my genie who has granted
Me true love I've always wanted
My wish has finally come true
With the love I see in you
I used to search everywhere
For someone who would just care
But all I could ever find--
Men who just messed up my mind
By the many cheating lies
They told, it was no surprise
How all of the excuses
Made

Beyond the Realm of Wishes

Beyond the Realm of Wishes
In sun-scorched dunes 
beside a weathered sentinel 
a glint ensnared his weary gaze.
A tarnished lamp / 
grazed / its secrets unknown / 
a genie unbound.... 
a muted haze.

Three worldly desires danced like tempting fruit, ambition's flame, 
     …a reckless spree.
Yet visions sprouted, with roots of rue, for

Genie In a Bottle

A genie from a bottle has granted me one wish, what would it be?
So many choices to reflect on, maybe live for all eternity
Somewhere along the way I am sure I would be the only one left
The thought of this reality is a little too much to digest
Maybe a few million dollars,  boy would

Aladdin's Lamp

I light my precious oil Aladdin’s lamp
As I poured some wine, in a split sec
A genie appeared, as if by command: 
“You’ve lift the lid, just put it back
I don’t perform anymore, better try
Another bottle, to get the one
Who can help, if you venture to apply",
Said the genie, and instantly he was gone
Gobsmacked, I rose

What Is Happening

What Is Happening?

Yes, the little Genie asked
What is happening?
Children aren’t being taught
To tell time,
They can’t look at the clock and
Know whether it’s one o’clock
Or it’s 10 o’clock
Who is teaching the children?
Yes, the little Genie asked
What is happening?
Children aren’t being taught
Cursive writing
They can’t write their names
What a sad thing to know
The art of handwriting
Is being let

The Genie On the Loose

                  The genie is on the loose
                    The genie is on the run
