My world broke into two pieces or...

Before that day splashed  everything with light
I  played in solitude with cuddly clouds
And watched them form changing figures, blight
The sky or bring the sobbing sludge of rain,

This morning on my knees again, I lift
You up in prayer, love. Beg God his care
For you, to make the laboring day swift
Balm your weary flesh, and deny your fear
I told him bathe you in...

Offering yielded, yield back to the sovereign king
Devoted to duty, rise in the morning of its flame
Intellect's child, imprinted on Yahweh's soaring wing
Nurturer. natured with heaven's milk, sweet you came
Kindness kindled in hibiscus fire, passion...

Mentors like priests preparing me for holy rite
Institutional slaves to a false trinity
Subduing adventure, exploration and discovery to classroom rigor
Eternal stairway ... moonbeams to the golden dream
Dismatling who I am so I become who you...

Starting with the book move,
Hii, it's pawn to e-four.
Don't act like strangers,
You've seen this move before.

Now my knights came into play,
It's surely an awkward move.
You won't understand my intentions,
And it might hurt you out of...

I forgave them, the anointed flock, rinse them
And wash them, and put them back
To wear your robe, your borrowed diadem
Walk to Golgotha with curse at their back
I forgave them
For they never felt the fire, knew...

I am man
No dictionary can define my legacy
I am man
Defiant of of transgressors destiny
I am man
Something more than mere masculinity
Something corporeal of life's spirituality
I am man

I am man
And no legal scale nor constitution defines me

A butterfly, aliferous,
of subtle slights, soniferous,
common spirits, days just went by,
aliferous . . . a butterfly.

forgiving sun favors spread best
microscope's trial . . . clinical's
nigh shipyard trash, few binnacles.

A game of...

Ella Dit......Capture
 finding something reavant
sorta elegant
something worth mentioning
something just to say
stumbling over my words
haven't you heard
or is it just something to say
Il Dil.....Castling
Don't you care that I love you

I give the former partnered portrayals
to the educated minds as their guess.
I take the latter severed betrayals
then divide and conquer as I play chess.

Astrology boards, travel promises,
a Queen amidst Knight's saber sword fighting,
Space Ghost, Klatu,...

What have I done?
I became the speech 
of starless night. 

Oh! I almost melted
hearing God
in you,

Grounding teeth against the wollywork 
Memorization doesn't appetite and clause
Matching petulant crashing opposed 
Language and its neighbor
Avenue of bark 
Credible crock croaking a broken moat
Butcher a goat

Drowning why like castling a brook
Finalizing a product

excitedly injustice
awakening stampede
stopping as imbibes
desperate necks
heeling creeks
jumping dashes
merciful joy
i am not there, please hold
the bridle and the hoof
i see nothing of blunders fray
you have fickled my merriment
daring jester
come once again telling me your terror
in what...
