...But there exists a much broader hate,
half the species, you see, do not rate.
I’m talking, of course, about the men,
how we’re seen as less next to women,
that our basic masculinity
is portrayed as criminality,
save for working...

The taste of joy, so crystal clear,
It’s the feeling of a soaring soul,
An escape from chains that take their toll.

Freedom, the right to be yourself,
To speak your mind and not just shelf,
To choose your path...

"


Dealt the hands of fate
A dollar short and day too late

Checkmate
Your ship is sank

Grab you by your cape

Then put them in their place

Those...

Americans have overcome many great trials,
But harbor too some persistent denials.
Stubbornly clutching long-held positions,
Over time have become national traditions.
Pride in the sanctity of individualism,
Elevates in stature, creating a schism.
Unresolved core beliefs, rationalization,
Test the thinking of...

Some say that our people
will never, ever get along,
that skin is our ‘identity,’
that old, bigoted song.
Some must always be victims,
and others will oppress,
the groups A, B, C are awful,
but D, E, F are best.
I don’t...

"CHILD LABOUR "
Please do me a favour ,
Ruin the acts of child labour;
Soft hands which have to take pencil,
You classify them under worker's council;
Let's pump the education in mind,
Train them to innovate ideas they need...

TODAY’S WOMAN

A column can scaffold a back that is enervated.
We as women will burden ourselves with hate.
That is we will take on another’s disintegration.
All in that business is a mess.
It becomes our plight to fix.
We...

I MUST EMBRACE THE ENTIRETY OF MY EXISTENCE

I must quietly acknowledge my tenacity and strength,

controlling forces, and individuals who have tried to muffle, 
my thoughts, worship ... and hopes....

Restless hand of poet rejecting moments of idleness,
start writing and empty the unbearable heaviness:
and as the splashing waters of the waterfall plunge down
the precipice for an escapade into the distant ocean,  
they must leave...

Children exceed the doves that we were given.
They are graces sent forth from God in heaven.

Despite one's capacity to innovate and teach,
Dawn facts to tutor, given in eloquent speech. 

Wisdom gained in life radiates alike the...

And I embrace the realm of modern poetry,
Wild and free, its spirit flowing through me.
In a world of ever-changing forms and styles,
I navigate currents with versatile wiles.

No longer bound by rigid rhymes and beats,
I explore...

As potential grew, a desire to write, disclosed to few

Imagination immerse, but yet to thirst for knowledge, accrued ambition address

All aboard the express, thoughts of Harry, a plot to marry

From fanciful flights to greater heights

Capturing...

My migratory mind indomitably mobile,
recedes with the ebb of time, seeks the shore of the past,
as the spirited surfer on the wandering waves of life, 
surging on curled crests carrying the fractured full moon,
and within...

Winds of change came to my doorstep spitting and spewing fear.
They rocked me for some days as I walked my life’s...

We were born to create, but deceived to consume. 
Slave state
We repeat what has already been had. At our best we simply change what someone else has made.

Remove for one day or even...

Transcendence

My cat’s content, she cannot see the end 
No road ahead, no thoughts to comprehend 
Or search for something that she will not find
No disappointments, just around the bend

She has no dread of death, no...
