"Playing For Keeps"

And cheats
It's time to release the beast off the leash
And have a feast
Sinking my teeth
Into each, until they cease

Left out to rot, not buried beneath
The...

insisted unhesitatingly on imitating, no, actually embodying, a baby dog.
REALLY! As real is Trump's Presidential...

It might be said of adolescence,
This is a stage demanding economic authority,
autonomous freedom to invest and disinvest,
without yet accepting concomitant political responsibilities,
to family
to community
to children
to grandchildren
to disenfranchised populations
to Elders' wiser investments, in their permacultural time,
to...

The everyday struggle of a young black man
Just the thought of being broke
Trying to get him to understand

The Smoking Gun 

We entertain thoughts at the work party with high class cocktales
 Running to and from our destination as are ego's soar throughout

Lost one
Tossed one
Tossed to and fro
and here and there
Lost one
Desperate tears 
Burdened,
By a world of cares
So much fear, it tears
Down to the last fiber of being
With no one
or no thing,
To give some kind of remedy
So...

.     *DOGGY  STYLE*

Tonight! Tonight! I must display.
About my man's doggy style way.

Once he comes home he acts like I'm his "DOGGY BAG."

It's been a long time coming
It can be pretty amazing, when you actually put your mind to something

On this planet
Multiple meteors and comets landed
Causing lots of damage
Some irreparable, but the Earth was strong enough to...

Four millimeters of tempered glass separates your world
from the Homeless Beggar Prince now standing before you 
appearing tattered, torn and trampled on like discarded trash.
No longer a viable phoenix rising to escape winter’s burn.

Dog eat dog world
Awakes to new dawn;
Paradoxical gains


Words and yet more
Empty words dilute;
Cold comfort frozen


Headlines sensation
Bad news in vogue;
Catchy decadence


Muse upon feeling
Profound thought;
Self-realization lights


Mood swings highlight
Psychic trauma;
Pain instigates


Skybridge running track
26 floors above;
Senior citizens jog


Look to...

Now days being courteous is outdated
Who would’t like someone who is always quick to say “thank you” or “please”? 
That would give your day peace and be...

Call me whatever to suit your moods
Lay me out with cuss words, “give me the goods”

Remember the days not long ago
When most people were actually polite
Men would open doors for the ladies
Strangers would wish you goodnight

Drivers would wave another car through
Though they were late for a meeting
Men would get up,...

Welcome to this place called planet earth,
It's always been this way since the day of birth.

Life's a battle to see who's the baddest in the land,
Only until there's no more blood in the gland.

What is society? Dictionary.com doesn't say so, but it is, some say, an irresistible force that causes insensitivity, greed, or downright oblivion.

Sir, why did you ignore the starving man in front of your house this...

Sweat through labor's fervent pace.
You pitiful dog,
You minuscule cog,
Lest you vanish off the face
Of the earth without a trace.

Don't dare threaten profit gain
When you don't understand
Why wealth could own the land
For which your fathers died...
