Long Coexisted Poems

Whether life or death coexist in us
Nothing changes the ability to change a fraction of this life itself
Nowhere is safe as they say
But into a cataclysm of this magnitude 
Might other intelligent aspects of life...

" She was born in 219 A.D.,
I met her in 235 when she was 16 years old.

from a Belgium territory, trying to persuade a chieftan named...

In ancient times, when celestial roam, 
A tale of music, love, and home
There lived a bard of wondrous skill,
Whose melodies could hearts fulfill?

His name was Lyric, gifted and true.
His songs could heal...

Poet will use all it takes 
To travel our works all over the world
Meeting poet celebrities with handshakes
The ones figurative words twirled 
Monsters of us flowing lakes 

Our works will run connections in water 
Illuminating...

With the invention of man came a myriad of difficulty and distress. 
When the first australopithecine gained it bipedal wings and set sail on the journey to societal grandeur, origin was not an issue.

We were one yesterday
We coexisted yesterday
Dreams were achieved
Roads were built 
By my grandmother' side,
we sang a great song
Our parents cohabited a barn-
Unity they stood,
Our children drank from one cup
The moon was their mind

For fishing in mountain river
When weather is bad,

Hours, days, weeks,
Years, decades, lifetimes,
I wasted on me...
Thought I was smart...
Yet I couldn't see...
Misery or joy,
Coexisted inside,
My choice which to feel,
And which to hide

And I chose wrongly,
Superficial existence
Lived I,
Now matter how hard,
I could never figure...

cobblestones filled in with rain
crowded by thirsty mourning doves
just down the road a bit
connects the noted Canterbury lane

flower pots hanging by the windows
of a small Tinkerville hamlet
elder cobblers are heard tapping
their soft leather shoes

Maidens selling...

THE AFRICANS OF OLD.




The Africans of old
At night, slept and of Africa 
For Africa they dreamt
Of a day to come 
When Africans will be free 
Uhuru Uhuru Uhuru
From every form of enslavement 
And oppressions.

The town lost its street maps,
new plots of land appeared, houses were built
where just yesterday there had been none.
Her world seemed relocated,
changed, as if it had been redrawn.

They had not shared their likes or interests

Deep in my oceans of pain, existed bliss, and coexisted the Son
I saw the spasmodic ray of hope
Flickering...
