Long Black art Poems

"Backhand"



You have turned me
inside out, cut open
like a tennis ball
I used to beat backhand
along with the racket
hard against the garage wall

To make sense of it all
as a child, the grief stolen
all too swiftly and replaced...

From ashes of Sokovia, a twin sister rose,
With powers of chaos and psionic flows,
Wanda they called her, tethered spirit unfurled,
As women before her, she reckoned this world. 

Her pain born of loss, and hurt tragedy,
Fueled...

Vroom! The loudest noise echoes the night
Construction starts.
The night is shaken by booms and bangs
Of trucks, of heavy machines!
To have a road, a smoother wider road
The path to peaceful sleep is shaken
The ears cry of...

"The Fresh Blooding of a Sexton Grin"



Guns ...

are for p*ssies
you know, short for 
pussilanimous plural

Words …

are sharper

concise 
quill slicing the lucid flow

you can taste the blood
as you turn them

This is a poem written by my mother, under her, "nom de plume", 
Genevieve St. Cyr.

It was wonderment.
The mesmerizing expression rolled off her tongue in waves. 
To my puzzlement I was in a state of allurement.

Moth
In a kingdom full of ants
The splendid spider spidering
Deep into that darkness frogging
Death shall bring candlefish
It threw its ghost against the grubs

Deep into that darkness frogging
Death shall bring candlefish
It threw its ghost against the grubs
That...

Though I'd never exclude you, tone deafness' black art,
It's 'oil cast on the water!' Is poetry's grooving
Not part...

It's after the 'landslide?' Thieves stole the election!
This traitorous scum bag's a Russian invention,
But 'Charmin' (1) for Putin (that's on a good day!)
For the dark side of Trump's just black art on display!

Who’s sure what...

In the distance
A stranger sees the smoke.
His attention is heavily veiled
overburdened under an obsessive cloak.

a shrug to forget
Unable to shed his curiosity
his focus exiled within
this animosity

A few goodbyes
departing his tent now
with only a tiring pace

Wars and crimes,
Hunger and thirst,
Sad for the world,
My heart bursts.

Holding onto hope by my fingertips,
Drinking polluted water by sips.

Blood of the wounded,
Blood of the dead,
Blood of the innocent on their heads.

My mother's tears,
My father's fears,
All...

Lamenting love rest upon my humble heart,
May thy candle burn quickly before thy night…
Loves lament lies lingering from far apart,

For the slings and arrows deploy and depart,
Solitary stars sacrificed amidst dying light…
Lamenting love rest upon...

You have no doubt,
So spit it out!
The jig is up,
Time for you to run,

You don't want to be
Another "Chosen One"
Ruled by the great slime below,
Always ready for a show
Of human degredation,
pain and misery...

You don't want...

The pain was so great she was madly aware

 

It went deep in her heart to the very worst part

Where there was nothing, just cold, dark, black art.

I must face my foes,
Many will attack!
A shield for the throes,
So I don't shrink back.

In order to stand,
One thing stands apart,
Truth must form its band,
So God does His part.

Who reigns in your heart,
Is it many...

Cancer of my soul

It started unknowingly without a hint
In the deepest draped portion of my soul
Spreading it's empire in deathly shadowed glint
Armies of selfish thoughts multiplied defeating benevolent cells breathing hours
Loudest mute battle inside each...

Sun’s splendor orange ball spread
O’re granite giants and tame vales 
Wild wind’s daring waft he rode
How mystic, oh fate; ired dragon 
By ired hero’s hand slayed
Upon chariot fierce steeds
Thunder and spear soiled the field 
Slain...
