LAUREATE OR NOT I AM A POET
Poet that I am, I live on dreams and breezes... I love to live in peace and in a state of happiness... But ambiguous as I am, I am happy and sad... I harbor dissatisfaction and anxiety... I seek total bliss, the kind that can never be found... But that does not shake me, because I am an ethereal creature, I live on dreams and chimeras... Never giving...

I remember sitting among the poets in this place of arts Where curved brushes painted blushes of artists open hearts Our art could be confined to paper, but really it was meant to fly Like a caged bird beats its wings, these words seek the sky Only on the lips of faith, they leaped from the pages And danced around...

Defining a Poet Laureate
In words that dance, a poet's grace, A laureate's soul finds its embrace. With verses vivid, tales unfurled, They paint emotions, a world advanced. Their quill, a wand of rhythmic might, Crafts symphonies in darkest night. From heart to ink, the journey's grand, They wield a pen as magic wand. They capture dreams in vivid hue, Reflecting life in every view. With language as their...

Dotting Laureate
1 fine day an erstwhile aspiring dotting poet laureate Overcome by inner torment and habitual thought This ditty came to wrote When 1 finds the sun behind sadly no longer way out in front Ever so steadily warming one's back and dirty neck And so too the torrent of regret that makes 1 fret the splinter creaking wooden board's under foot Beware and very mindful...

Thesan
Oars and jars in place, sails ready to blossom, map drawn as a moon. Chinese character, rhythm of life, painted on the hull. It is strange that I see. On every mornings breeze. That there’s always a doorway. To you. It is strange every time. It is always on the line. And the door. It is open. For you. Come morning, Come...

Numb
Floor to ceiling, wall to wall, world to world, Bouncing from dimension to dimension, Stranded in the space that is nowhere, Unsure if this is wake or sleep, Unsure which option is reality, Rapid fire stillness, The love child of sanity and insanity....

I Am Black History
From Africa to America spanning the world, quite possibly My DNA struggled to survive to make me, My existence is a testament to survival fitness, My life is to nurture the future and bear witness, the past, My name is the name to property they gave, My heritage my lineage is that of a slave, Yes, slave, property, harsh words to...

The Poet From the East
It's true that I was in town When the trumpet sound And soldiers came down Spilling like ants on the ground: Heralding the royal feast! The Gods have had their seats To celebrate the poet from the east Whose lyrical prowess beats The best they've ever heard. It is heavenly inspired: The lines of this bard, His hands neither slack nor feel tired. Here, the bard comes Clothed...
