Long Northerners Poems

I ask myself a rhetorical question regarding...
the durability, longevity, and tenacity of Homo sapiens,

with many means
of self destruction at their disposal?

Northerners are heading south 
Blue and Orange in an east coast bout 
Right now individuals who are sweet and peach

Not showing power

Since I started dealing with that adult style wage 
The Orange one used to welcome the new year 
With an evening date filled with cheer

As we know Christmas is a lively annual festival

If I had lived yesterday
in that chaotic world echoing
of Gatling guns shots and canon blasts,
I would have made a difference:

Waving a patriotic pennant is such the image 
Peaceful as a dove in war dirty as a pigeon
If Old Glory touches the ground

Stars stripes power prepared for a...

Roundup lassoes, swinging
Roping stars of wide open country
Sweetheart moon is swooning
Cowboy smiles wrangling darlins

Somewhere south marlins swim and dolphins dance 
Aquarium stage is where they get the chance 
While heat...

City born Northerners,
Kiss the last rays of sunlight,
With pampered lips
While those of us born and raised

We dust off the melting sun
With a laugh that sheds the heat
From our pores and...

T^he Northerners speaks hausa whilst we speak igbo
They married with no bride price...

Visibly wore she my footprints
While bore I a Restarted Scholarship,
In 1993 flaunting The Dullest Glints
With streets that rather mirrored hardship …

And irritably The Hilly
A thing of sure hatred by Asthmatic Roads...

Jubilance is too mild of a word to describe what the slaves must have felt.

Unbelievable would not be truthful because they anticipated freedom.

Evil took a break as...

We Floridans  sometimes take for granted
What everyone else has always wanted
Our  state has it all
But we prefer  our problems to recall

We’re Northerners gone south  - deportees.
Still we might complain about ...

Flamingos pink and perky love wading in the glades,
Lazing on white sand beaches you'll see tourists on display.
Oranges grow in groves off'ring juicy sweet splendor,
Rainy days combust into lightning flash and thunder.
Interesting marine life, such...
