The Avenue of Gastronomic Delight

The Avenue of Gastronomic Delight

Down the broad avenue called Gastronomic Delight
City life gathers when twilight awakens;

In eateries, drive-ins, greasy spoons and taverns – jumpin’ joints jumpin’
Like Snoopy with his dish doing the suppertime dance;

Lured by...

Grubbing

Adjusting Appetizing Palates.
I have sampled the variety,
I am the one who has tasted life;
The one who has had a taste of life.
Rarely indulged in the main course-
Seldom a full meal-
I come hungry-
To leave satisfied...
I want...

The Hallowed Harvest

From its pillowy overlay, the Sun emerges
Bright saturized yellow, ultraviolet rays,
Enough to burn and blind and sting,
glances down on mankind,
To see what they got up to during the night.

Zydeco House Party

The bayou sky flies a catfish moon over swamp gators 
And cottonmouth vipers. Accordions, fiddles, and rub board vests 
Make their ramble through the undergrowth hot on the trail
Of a sultry midsummer house party in...

This city that made me
Strung together the mind and the eyes
So that every place I travel
Is seen through the rosy hue cast by its light

This city that nurtured me

Old Days

Poet: Ken Jordan
Poem: Old Days
Edited by: Sparkle Jordan
written: July/2013

In the old days
when smiles 
on faces

you in the
eye
 with honor -

Kids were
taught 
to always
respect
they're
elders -

And every
mother
and
father
in the
 neighborhood, 
would
correct you
when you
did wrong -

Back then,
life seemed
so simple -

In these

My Man

Dreads swingin’
Golden brown skin
Deep south
Drawl
Cunning like 
A fox
Sharp as
An eagle
So strung out;
Me I mean 
Over your love
Security and protection
Is all I feel
In his arms
A familiarity
Like no other
With you I 
Feel back to
My roots
I can smell...
