the seat of his maroon pantaloons soaked with mud,
his nostrils flaring with the fragrance of ombadalias,
whose lacey petals flutter

Those were such happy days, for I had lately been deeded a farm,
My aunt and uncle were retiring, so tillage had lost its charm.

Since they were childless, and to a retirement community bound,
It seemed I...

A World That Pretends To Be Happy
The pursuit of happiness 
is the American Dream
but how can I be happy 
if I ain’t spending?
What kind of world 
have we all come to live in
where happiness is sold at 
filthy auctions?
Add it to...

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Walking with arms...

Internet Iniquity, Injustice and Impertinence
Iniquity, impunity, injustice invade Internet interaction
Alongside odious obliteration and cunning coercion
Facilitated and militated with unabashed attention and intention   

To minutest details
To misspell the capture of heads and tails
Which in essence sells injustice and...

Beggars Can'T Be Choosers (Part 1)

Twisted up in agony his feed was getting urgent, as he sped across the moon on a swift
demonic serpent.

Beggars and Thieves
Maybe I feel sorry for;
The  amongst us thieves;
The ones who give to us;
But don't ever receive.

Maybe beggars can't be choosers;
Like lovers amongst the abusers;

Before they roll the dice,...

It's a Campaign Season

Cheating and mocking, with little or no care,
Exciting and deciding, with little or no storming,

the melanin haters love saying to us
With a foot stomp  stomp,
and a wicked tone profane cuss:
“Good riddance to you,
ghetto cockroaches
400-years of your whiny fuss,
we done had enough”

In reply, 
we annoying colored critters say:
