Cash

I feel much like trash
When I’m not earning cash
Can’t you see I’m working hard, Lord?
According to Your will, according to Your accord

When I’m unable to clean up my mess
Can’t you see...

True love is unquestionable. 
What is true love?
To me; it is more feeling based rather than definitively worded. 
Emotional attached, formed mentalities that are equally paired with an immaculate physical connection. 
Collected bi-gender, shared love—
She’s...

American Traitor

To manipulate laws to disqualify voters,
Vote multiple times, or give dead living voice,
These are acts of a traitor! Man’s born with a choice.

To hate when you don't win a kind...

Dark Reflection

its voice deep and mellow like smooth satiny chocolate,
"There is more, much more than good and evil,"

The verdant emerald green of the forest quivering at the sound,
drawing in upon...

Effused Encounter

Neither a dream nor a trick, I beguiled--
I reach the sky enameled with golden smile.
To hurdle bumps and curves, I continue to pedal

Fool For Poetry

Amouage is given
to the Pope, the King, the Queen
some we offer willingly others begrudgingly
the honorable can be challenged or challenging
the dishonored deemed unworthy,
placed upon a teetering putrid pedestal
Though at times impartial are the judges, not...

When the World Grew Wings - Full

There once came a day
when the world took flight
('twas only a handful
who gaped at the sight)
For when she spread her wings

could keep alive the dream,
that had awakened for all to...
