A Poem About Nothing but Love
By: Tyner Twine

As tribute to my first love's requiem.
Nevertheless, this simple soul song is the same,
 Written all for love and not...

An Early Morning Picnic By the Sea
Whose idea it was,
An early morning picnic by the beach!
The air is cold and the sea is loud
With the sea gulls all clattering
my husband fancies taking a dip
with the children all clamoring.
as the dog runs...

I sit at the edge of the bed, 
my hip hurts, 
my back aches, 
and my legs are on fire. 
Not for the first time, 
not for the last.

God's Forgiveness Is Free
Greetings to you in Jesus name, who gave me love to love
Offering himself for my sins to save me by grace above
Delightsome is the joy of friends, take peace from forgiveness
So your soul may heal....

Child Laborer
I was pulled out of the school; doomed into hard labor,
To my home, at budding age, I became a life-saver...!

When kids of my age, with stylish satchels, proceed to school,
I, in cracker-workshops noxious, chemicals heat...

I May Not Be Your Best Option
I may not be that man you so much wanted;
That man you carved in your deepest imagination,
One who is too good to be human and whose air graces the eye.

I must have threaded a path,

Premium Member Raped By Rejection
Imprisoned in the four walls of Rejection’s cell
The world stone deaf to the screams coming from this hell

I throw myself at the padded walls, frenzied…appalled
Self-loathing spews into my mouth leaving me galled

You see the face,...

At Last It Came To Pass
As this fevered vision comes to pass
these saviors with their plagued feet
grinning lips bereft of truth and teeth
sorely hunger for our wealthy carcass

Armed with a legion of noisy mosquitoes
billboards, loudspeakers are screaming out
glossy party programs...

Migration
The child of a certain perception,
Among your kinfolks poor reception,
You just can’t endure irritation:
It could make you leave your own nation, 
White men’s world declare your new station,
Face the challenge of imitation…

Then, it’s all yours:...

Back To Light
I was morose and sad,
The place looked and felt dull,
I was galled feet to skull,
There was nothing new to do,
Everything was just about no,
I was about to walk out,
And for it just turned about,
She walked...

Weep By the Tide
As mist descended far and low, 
dark storm clouds stirred the sea. 
Upon the rocks a maiden lay, 
weep by the tide did she.
 
Fair English rose, her skin so pure, 
awash with salty dew....

How To Use Condom
Grandmas I teach how to suck eggs:
Marathoners long use of legs,
Soon hurting Enlightened People;
Might sooner unleash a ripple;
What would she say: The Western World?
Possibly, a heart is now galled!
Yet, will I this brash task perform

I Wish To Thank
To my sorrows I wish to thank,
The grief that galled me, wish to thank—

Adversities that chased all life,
To my sad state I wish to thank.

Troubles, stumbles, pains, tears, sadness—
Those that caused them, I wish to...

His Observation
Late day sun
It’s reflection outdone
Shifts across the street
Laying before his  feet

Debris and lifeless bloom
Along the side walks entombed
To some it’s an unsightly cast away,
that once shaded a summer day

Their stillness shines in a beauty...
