Long Marinating Poems

Invisibly tortured courtesy existential nihilism

Psyche wracked with agony
impossible mission to extricate lovely bones
they wanna remain permanently abed.

I chiefly function to amass knowledge
courtesy assiduously, habitually,
and judiciously reading
an eclectic assortment of written material.

Yours truly woke
with ambition, disposition,
inclination,...

We were children of the 50s and early 60s, first of the boomers.
Our parents knew of wars and more wars, much lack, and hard work.
They were either directly sent off to war or worked hard...

Earth crosses her heart at midnight
Shaking loose dust upon battered edge
Scorn mocks the piercing night as daylight 
Moves swiftly with open jaws waiting for a fight.

I can recall the days when she was in full...

All my thoughts evolve around you
Like planets orbiting the dazzling sun
All my dreams were spent on you and you were my priceless diamond 
But, all of my hope is shriveling away
Like paper in the raging...

HERO DAY
 
From the depths of history, their stories unfold,
Of black men and women with spirits untold,
In defiance of chains, they rose above,
Their hearts relentless, fueled by love.

African kings and queens, proud and revered,
Adorned with...

  So many people in Asia...

KP: With embellishment aborted, 
sidewalk and street talk wail from paper. 
Tears vividly seen because cursive one's don't wipe away. 
An intrinsic institution allergic to plagiarized allegiance, 
we're born and bred to bleed blue from...

An imported imperfection of his delayed conclusion of opinions leaves me restless.
I know I may not be the prettiest, I know my body may not be the fittest.
However, my heart remains the same, his love...

Let your light shine on me…I long for your sunlit glee
To wash me thoroughly and marinating me…
I yearn for His humility to wipe off her pride from me…
Looking forward to the future – a perpetual...

(Otherwise titled poetic
gobbledygook trot -
oven chilly cooked confusion eliciting

I really didn’t realize how awkward it would be to substitute you
After years of feelings for you it can’t evaporate 
With a drop of two tears and a couple misplaced calls
You were gone and I...

This feeling of bewilderment blows things out of proportion…
Give me whatever advice you’ve got…I’m willing to listen
Why are you looking at me funny?
Why do you like to watch me suffer indecision? 
What about I scream...

In an abyss of madness
I am overwhelmed by the fog
It feels like I die
I crawl, I bleed
I suffocate, I choke
I fall, I feed
I float in the ocean
Of crimson and scraps
I lay with the trash
And to...

where did s/he first learn
to snort in the snot
funneling it backwards 
right back up into his/her head
until a slight headache 
occurred &
then pursing her/his lips,
throwing out the large wad
of festering phlegm 
out from said mouth

implicated for a crime he did not commit

fighting an endless and hopeless battle 

unsure of who conspired aganist him

guilty of being black

innocent soul forced to be corrupt

mind racing and searching for relief

zealous woozily throbbing
quintessentially narcotic
karaoke humble ecstasy bubbling
yawningly vibrantly

singing praises motivates
ineluctable fancy caparisoned
zestfully whooping tellingly
quaking novel kindles

heartfelt essence
blubbering yipping vocalizations
sincerely pronouncing
myriad jubilant gleefulness

describing absolute x2c
unbridled rhapsodic
obeisance loosening
inimitable fabulous communication

zeroing wakened tremendous pleasure
marinating joie de vivre
gurgling dynamically...

Struggling with this silent internal war. A smile on the outside today, is what I fixed and uncomfortably wore.
 I felt like the bigger it got the more I could hide. Now only the universe...

Our poetry...
A thousand times been read
Syllables contort tumbling 
Under covers
Free verse unfettered 
Beneath hot breath
Brail symbolic softens 
As soon as alabaster wets
Lips’ reciting merely, what is 
Or should be heartfelt said

Our poetry...
Sapidus is to taste
Licking...

Rendered your elixir within flowing fire
turned my head till flames got higher
'neath vapors' influence lustfully burning,
imbibed upon insatiable blushed lips
feverish craving ignited darkly melting hours
intoxicated of ravenously absorbed flamings
zealous ardor pulsing beyond desires,
hungry to the...

Mastications In One Movement


Lathering on the ranch dressing, 
mixed with honey mustard grunting;
these inhaling engorging souls are
finding the emotional precipice, 
high up and dangling,
hanging by french fried ropes, 
smothered in thousand island arrhythmias.
here come the...

Egypt is where she was once a tormented slave,
Many nights she was beaten into a cold grave,

She would lay for hours in the abyss,
Where she bled from her heart down to her wrist,

Tragically she’d question...

I've been around words and I know how to play with them
I can put together anything from a punchline to an anthem
Not of my own making though I'm made for the making
But like a cuisine...

Well I'm easy to explain here in these words...
I'm a man who loves sports, and cooking is

I love making people laugh and I never feel 
comfortable to everyone is grinning...

I think they would agree
No shown sympathy
Destruction slips through bloody teeth
Holes where hearts are supposed to be
And I need to breath

But the hand is on my throat
Musical reservations of my real anger
Keep sanity’s cries heard
