He said, "ooh, that's alright."

My (bleeding) heart is filled to overflowing, 
To see any growing glad(iolus), garden glowing;
Each sun peached, (petunia) petaled delight,

And...

As the peacock-sage 
waves of whimsical peace
faded in silence's 
pale watercolors, 
I masked my 
eerie eyelashes, 
with drifting 
angel-mist smog. 
For, I sensed the 
wistful wailings of 
ambrosial lilies,

Yo I'm not a hater
Or neither am I saying I'm greater

As of now, I got no mate
Working toward my own place
Another tragedy
Another casualty
Becoming a cold case
Zero evidence they could locate
Something sentimental
Something special
Stashed in a gold vase
People continuing to show hate
As a nation
A lot of saturation
Too...

now the river runs straight without this river bend,
where the water is still and the reeds do grow strong.

Fragile flower, buttercup
Swaying to and fro, dancing like
Inspiration, swallowing up the dark
With its rhythm, gentle and soft
Caressing the breathless moments
With hope, kindness and grace
Feelings that remind the spirit to hope
For the whisper of love’s embrace

Delicate...

The heat soaked day drags on: each daisy sweltering
every buttercup melting into the dry ground,
a golden oozing of petals. I watch them through the window knowing

It was the rat and the snake that ate each other.
It was the love in them.
It was the buttercup and the lupine that devoured the bees.
It was the insectivore legs that tilled the crumbling fields.

Release the shelter of bare feet,
     rhinestones on big toes sparkle.
The tentacle-shine of sunwheat
