then a spring like January 18th, 2023
here at Highland Manor apartments
picturesque green covered landscape,
where intrepid dandelions 
dare to defy...

Who Am I To You?

Am I just a stranger?
An online lover or a nobody 
That once who passes by 
In a lifetime of your stream ?

Maybe a poet?

A woman only good in sweet words.

Gaggles of ghetto girls mollycoddle, dandle cranky babies;
some cradled on arm and hip, some hustled along
on low-rolling rides. Granma’s noodle their talk

Black girls mollycoddle,
dandle cranky babies;
some cradled on arm and hip,

at a fantastic rate
things like bamboozle, bumfuzzle
blatteroon, and bombinate!
Bogged down in...

Congratulations you’ve done it!
And with flying colours too.
But then we knew you could do it
We had every faith in you.
Although your nerves were jangling

We knew once you took it to task
You’d...

The "Wagon Man"
"Wagon John" Harrel
Written: by Tom Wright
1/30/03

Glaring, glinting eyes,
set deep in a weathered face.
One scant peek revealed,
his life, at warp speed pace.

A mask filled with time ruts,
with narratives to relate.
Stories of life, and alcohol,
that...

We all have one in our lives, someone better than you,
not much to be done about it, in shades of blue,
where did he get the lines from, was it God-given?
Maybe, to keep you in place...

What message should I give my friend the heart?  As if my eyes
have kissed my mouth and swallowed all sweet-loving words;
where were you?  Where shall I hide from life if life had never
