Another HooDoo

Another HooDoo 

I Know You're Very Serious
Following Your Plan
But I Don't Seem To Play-Right
Any Way I Can.

I'm Just Another HooDoo
Picking Up A Scar!
Inviting 'Sober Mines' To Ask:
"HooDoo You Think You Are?"

I'm This I'm That
I'm Everything
I'm Nothing,
If Not Odd.

I Run The Range
I Ride The Slopes
I Saw The Face Of God.

But Anger Will Seduce Me
And Slicing Through

Albert Einstein, 1879-1955

Altho' it's not E=mc squared,
Albert was heard to theorise
when he declared,
"Carrots are relatively good for the eyes,
it's a fact
they'll make you see well and look good too,
I'm blinding you with science,
it's not hoodoo or a voodoo act."
He then asserted,
with a wicked grin,
"It only hurts when you put them in."

Love Spell

Love Spell.        

By Pippa Gray 

He's the soul for which I wait.
I'll feed him darkest sabre grapes
and lead him to a bed of moss,
with velvet spread and moonstained cloths.
His sweet and salty skin I'll bathe
in goats milk and black forest oats.
His will shall loose with every sip
of rose

Relax  you've got mastercard,
New fan dangles is your fate.

Hoodoo Sea

Capt'n Jack ‘ere and dead I be
drowned in the Hoodoo Sea.
Fire lit the sky as we sailed by
not far from Bim’ni.

Dey say ders nothin’ strange out der

But dey’v naught seen de ‘alf of it

Columbus sawr it too dey say
or so ‘is log records.
A blindin’ light, a fire ball

21st Century Hoodoo Man

( to the novelist Arthur Flowers)

Ripened dreadlocks twisted of hope & filth
Ancient crevices trickle through brims of his glasses 
While his callused hands hold mystery & misery,
Any eye could see he’s a man of power
A man who believes,
Awakening the sleeper
Protecting the weak
& guiding the strong,
For his pen stands mighty as blades 
Fighting injustice & questioning
