Long Naturals Poems

Road Trip

The country, people, and the village,

All of that gave a fresher image,
Nay, 'tis but a relative vantage.
Save fresh road, to its left bears a sign.

likened to a keyed car where scrapes linger.

She teases out a tune as we both try to hum
along with swirling keys her fingers drum.

The naturals and the flats whirl...

and that it’s contingent on me to know
that everything’s just a social construct,
there’s no difference that...

When I write I feel my fingers tapping keys

In my mind they are stroking black notes and ivory

You are sitting with me 

Place your warm hands on mine

“Metronome”, you whisper 

Warm breath on my...

Oh yeah, Trump is President and many people are running scared
What he's saying they resent saying things no one else had dared

Got a party coming up
I need to learn some moves
so I listened to the all-time greats
for tips on how to groove.
These music legends from times past
should know the moves to use

Petulant pouts and reluctant shrugs,
Smirk of nose, slight of eyes glint,
Made the communication impasse,
She was expectant somewhere under,
That I will smoothen pouts and make her more than shrug,
Straighten her nose and set her eyes normal...

COUPLET
After a couple of Tequila Sunrise
so I swap my drink that'll keep open my eyes
so I had a glass of Kahlua and cream
that's a blunder as I fell into a dream

INNER RHYME
I awoke that felt...

It is now on the brink of dawn
I find myself emotionally withdrawn
Caught again this breath of mine
Within me holding remaining confined.
Breathing being the most naturals of things
Not to me for life it brings

flimsy feelings stretched
fetish finger drenched
drips' dances best
mystic melody's crest
lanky lust's lurched
bounty biddings burst
