On The Evolution Of Liberation…

Once again
our humanity is taxonomically
mocked---no longer ¾
Homo sapiens---a step
just below
that of being human.  Rather, 
today, we’re an endangered species---
a modern classification absurdity
indeed!
Though endangered species
are protected, we remain
open season game through...

I'm a product of disappointments and nullification
And that's the reason why I make maleficient acts
I hate seeing persons contentment towards another person
I'm so stubborn to break their hearts

I like playing the feelings of another person

GROWING PAINS

It’s all about pain, frustration, tears. Fears, it’s all about fighting temptation
Watch the sun rise and set to the darkest thoughts of contemplation
My heart smiles not, my lungs laugh not to restoration

Saturated with fish fry smells, Bar-B-Cue smoke,
rodeo dust and sounds of deep water blues,
with teasing frothing lace spread on the shore,
Gulf Coast birth breeze blew winds 
in sails to Caribbean Sea, Blue Mountain
berries, banana walk...

Great big mouths and bulging eyes

They talk and talk and say very little
And always refuse to meet in the middle

They walk the halls, back and forth
And get themselves all out of...

Nothing tickles me pink, no stimulation,
I want to create a poem of deep inspiration,
Which will meet everyone’s expectation,
But my thoughts are edging towards nullification,
I...

Why have we chosen to wallow?
Despair.  Listen to the ancestors.
They did more with less; we have more.
Fool!  We have boots with straps!
Be aware of where they came!

As we are all part of the same verse,
languages to belong by diverse.
When the pen is mightier then the sword,
rhymed words are the crown of all commerce.
Legislation and constitutions in applicable intellect,
loving words by peacemakers...

sliding on the ice of nullification

To A Prodigal Awakening

They said the grass was greener
On the other side;
so you stepped over—clutching
great expectations
and the satisfaction of lingering 
hunger for better.
Yes you yearned to be 
What you’re not.

You returned bewildered and dismayed;
Perilous journey—
