My people love marching!
Attending rain dancing parades,
doing a bunch of fire-breathing talking
Little drummer boys and girls
playing foot soldier pretend grown up
Just defending the truth,
those marionette walkers will yell at you
in designer protest fashion
Motion activate the...

(Though dancing it is)
It’s not just a great workout
(Though good cardio it is)
It’s not just a form of entertainment

Restless soccer moms,
whose kittens have all become mature,
got plenty of suburban boredom
Time enough for sure

Noisy little people;
Fun screams and shouts

(Re tiny box-like homes lining the west side of
South Bundy Drive, north of Nebraska Street, in West LA)

From the indignant paradise
Scurrying past their frontal lobes

A racist white man’s vehicle broke down
in the middle
of the blackest pride side of Motown

He scratched his red neck double chin

From the time they were six years old
And best friends since the early days
A million baseball stories to be told

Their entire lives had been consumed
By the game of baseball which...

In their celestial separation of almost two decades
My parents’ “till death do us part”* vow survived various blockades

Leaving Dad in anguish, enclosing her warmly, momentarily in...

Truly, the bee hive innards hum 
Truly, the body inside gurgles 
Truly, the cave echoes the vortex

Bearing fatherly integrity’s good stature
My Dad, regarded with great pleasure
Ascended as clan’s patriarchal figure
Anchored upon tribal culture’s procedure.

Showing kindness and sharing his bounty
Not on his elevated platform, but from his heart’s generosity
He was sought-after for...

Quasar pulse time moves 
at the pause ratio of 
radioactive query change

A long anticipated moment of attraction
did quicky supernova boom, 
then it slowly did mushroom
into repellant cloudy, doubtful affection
 
Heartbeat fears

on quantum tick-tock...

We two are designed to these ebbs and troughs,  
Gyro dynamic tempos to clench the soul, 
And gnawingly let go,
Let flow 
Far far away into sunsets,
And let grow further away into context,
 Vegetate a...

Bow down 
when you hear the music

Eyes swaying side to...

Got to hold on sturdy
And stack up...
