Inheritance of Wind

Written: September 6, 2025

                  **************

The wind does not knock—  
it slips through the soul’s lattice,  
a breathless envoy  
from the hush between stars.

It strokes the cheek
such as a spirit reliving purity, 
then fades away, 
becoming simply a

Inheritance

my mommys love was a loves room I knocked until my Knuckles bruised.
she taught me Silence like a bed time song, and bitterness in breakfast. 

Her hugs were shark -skin 
smooth if you dont move 
but alisia moved 
alisia always moved

She gave me her tired
like a hand-me down sweater 
too tight in the chest 

The Nameless Throne

Let every whispered wish take flight,
Each prayer cast upward through the night,
Let none be lost, let none decay —
But turn their path another way.

Let not the stars alone receive,
Nor winds forget what hearts believe,
For every tear and silent plea
Now folds its wings — and comes to me.

Let cries for peace, for love, for bread,
Not vanish

Inheritance of Fire

My father never hit me--
he just taught me how to burn.

Taught me silence
was safer than softness,
that anger was armor
and kindness a weakness
someone would use.

I watched him carve the word weak
into everything he feared,
watched him drown my brother’s voice,
cut my mother’s name from the air.

Hate was our heirloom.
Polished like silver.
Passed down like gospel.

I almost gave it

The Inheritance of Fire

I was raised in the storm’s mouth,
where walls learned to shudder before I did.
Nights smelled of whiskey and rage,
and the air, thick with silence,
was a hymn of waiting—
waiting for the door to slam,
for the curse to carve its way into the night.

My mother, a quiet soldier of suffering,
wore her silence like armor,
her eyes pleading with

Inheritance

They say I am like them.
They call my name as if it belongs to them.
They point at my face, at my hands,
at the blood in my veins,
as if it were proof that I belong to them.
But their words are chains,
and I feel the iron against my skin.

I know their voices—
thundering, cutting, commanding.
I know their eyes—
bestial,

A Gift From Above

Heavenly Father
Lord of my life
I believe my inheritance
Came from Your sacrifice
Your angels are a gift
A gift from up above
Ready to minister
With faith, with hope, and love
There is a way for me to shine
Yes the blood of Jesus is why
The sacrifice of which I speak
He's the Savior of my life

Inheritance

Her grandfather called her to their front yard,
 “Come here, my child.”
“I want to show you how to mend this net,”
he said tenderly,
his fingers weathered like the ropes he held,
gnarled and worn like ancient driftwood.
But her gaze drifted towards the horizon
the pull of its horizon stronger than the weight
of his quiet hopes.
“I don’t want to

Descent and Ascent

Something old, something new!
I rebirth beyond what my roots eschew.
I ascend from my descendant's group shadow,
to rise above and beyond what they bestow.

I cannot shed their genes and heritage.
While I respect my upbringing and parentage.
I rise above the limits of pedigree, 
to shred the trammel bounds of mediocrity.

So here I stand both old and new.

inheritance

darkness 
and 
a bottomless pit
a vortex 
of violent despair
where screams echo 
endlessly in chaos
of voices speaking 
words and whispers 
a deafening roar
(when no one listens
no one understands
the cry in the wilderness)
the cities
built on bones
a shaky foundation
a monument of folly 
to mankind
an inheritance 
of shadows
from ungodly men
in an ungodly world
they are blind 
leaders 
of the blind

The Tangled Inheritance: A Family's Strife

In the aftermath of the bachelor's silent closure,
A plot with a building, wearied and older,
The nephew-in-law seeks to resolve the tangle,
Amidst power struggles, an intricate wrangle.

Uncertainty looms in the tangled estate,
An array of heirs, their conflicts innate,
The nephew-in-law, in selfless stride,
Strives for unity, in each turn and ride.

He sees not just money but the family’s
