Long Face facts Poems

"The Returning" 

Inside us all 
a strange forest

where light and dark 
are fed to us by 
curious creatures,
their unexpected gods 

in thoughts and deeds
joy and fear 
hate and love 
belief and disbelief

inwards
our dreams 
turn to
The...

there comes a time when
people you once respected
reveal
or you discover
the real
person behind the mask

face facts
people who never wanted you
to do better
than them
are now wishing
that you would 
shut your mouth
stop your tweeting
delete your facebook
get out of...

You think you're Godzilla 
but you're just a Gorilla,
that's what happens when you've got gonorrhea,
my skin colours vanilla
my skills are killa and real
you're run of the mill, a fail
can't you tell you didn't do well,

Have bowlers become spicier?

Hitches in batting riches

Cut sl**s shut in a rut

Pitches become dicier?


Chestnut witches strut

Gluts of stitches

And seams dreams

Humdrum Timber 

Tantrum doldrums

Back in the hut


 
What we did see at the WTC

Wood from the...

"Plumage"



We are the iridescent gems
kicked like rubble
gifts to give

we walk souls 
in dead bodies
all colours, plumage to be free

accepted our truth,
is shunned by the better ones
we are viewed obscenities

integrity takes courage
honesty by the beautiful ones
broken...

Your face contorts in a twisted effort
Plaintive in non-decorous reverberation
A terrain around a pair of distant orbs 
Lost in extemporaneous consternation
To ward off the fear of unwanted evanescence
Upon the wanton revelation
Of a day you wish...

Change for the greater good
Change for the better
Better version of...

Pig feet, hog maws, chitterlings, yams, greens and cornbread,
These are some of the things that our bodies are being fed.
Fat back, ribs, neck bones, macaroni and cheese;
Our hearts and arteries are crying, please, please, please.

Buttered...

No Longer Here Will Remain

Had heard softy sound of a distant drum
After to all of his desires he did succumb
While lying there dreaming in his bed
Having to face facts he often would dread.

What if pregnant...

Love of my life
Apple of my eye
Queen of my heart
Had hopes that you'd be my wife
By my side
But it seems we must part
God forbidden
Truth hidden
With good intentions
But doesn't sooth my inflictions
Knowin I must move on...

Prophets of this modern age
Find the Tao on a business page
Seek a broker instead of a sage
Cause you know they make more profits

Three wise men without a clue
Wearing Jerry Garcia ties and three piece suits

A cool Summer breeze... 
Brings pollen to allergies's 
own wheeze and sneeze.

Maple leafs wave against many southern winds...
Rain drops pelt rooftop's of metaled building's dins.

Storms affront the lakes of lands...
Nature's wrath confronts plans of man.

Last year I enrolled in trendy gym
Was enthusiastic about being slim
Have to say I was intimidated
When personal trainer demonstrated.

Spandex-clad my body held in
Mirror torments this fight will win
Parked on a bicycle going nowhere fast
Five minutes...

If everyone left, at the same time, right now!
There’d be a sigh of relief, from the whale to the cow.
Buildings would crumble, and towers would fall.
But earth wouldn’t need us, wouldn’t miss us at all.

Impatiently she waits; anxious and as usual
begging God to intervene with a phone call,
an invitation, she was unwilling to wait for.
Her prayers were in earnest - full of promises.

God is a good judge, He exposes...

Can we ever truly right the wrongs of the past?
Seems to me what was done cannot be undone,
And I am not a proponent of crippling remorse
So, let’s just face facts, as they were, and resolve

Opportunity for Unity

What we saw after so much scrutiny;
Minds must not meddle with mutiny;
Racial bias no more,
Or try to even score;
Seek a perfect opportunity for unity.

When friends come you align
With or without they sublime
Happier than those been single
So day after day they mingle
Time flies to test acts
Are you suppose to face facts
Real friends never change
But their punches never remain the...

My hands are tainted, painted with regret and stained with caution 
I wish to love like no tomorrow, sorrow borrows my will
Green tea shots, forgot, but not by choice of heart
My mind plagued by longing,...
