during the month of June 1955, 
not quite half...

and palpable sigh of relief,
and I too deeply exhaled,
a foregone conclusion staved off
today July 21st, 2024,

contumacious,...

It vibes in harmonics broadband, a musical language universal,
Echoing across the heights divides, falling as a thunderstorms,
Raw force of spiritual power, descending from the heavens above,
The angels do yield, surrendering the gift of music unto...

Vines upon the tombstones weave their fingered laced design
Smothering the dates of those beneath

shuttering fright housed inside
in one poof annihilating prejudice
(white privilege included) and pride
reducing to ashes trumpeting
self importance, where snide

Interestingly enough,
I do not entertain notions
inflicting self harm nor...

He then could write great rhyme or lyric

than terrifying competitive victory,
unhealthy monopolization
of light and power,

Calming Presence

Early sunrise
As day comes after
The night

There are sunbeams
Beautiful golden 
And bright

Warm and happy
With skies of hope and 
True love

Enhanced blessings
Brilliant displayed

Each tomorrow
Providing a pleasing
Nice treat

Calming presence
Fullness is renewed
And sweet

Ever thankful
For always seeing 
His light...

The swing and sway of her hips

The uncertainty of her steps

The vulnerability in her eyes

As she feels all the staring eyes

Devouring her beauty
