Long Ponce Poems

You can’t expect miracles in the eyes of men 
We must wait patiently with heartfelt acceptance
You will not look back & slip into your comfort zone again
We MUST gain eternal freedom & experience 
The attitude...

1. Too fired up
he exaggerates every niggle
and squashes every chance to assuage our boils.
He acts without a lode star
putting everything under weigh
and exhibiting ignorance with flames of literacy.
Reading without play decorates stupidity
I play the cheap...

Yes, my dear, you know,
You are my source of joy, rejuvenation, hope
I need your emotion spread onto my life,
I need your heart to sing among the darkness surrounding
Do not let our words run dry
Together, in...

Does it make you sad too that Republicans say
That no man is my 'brother' who won't make me right, (1) 
That diversities' bona fides died.
Parties punish a member who won't smoke their 'joint, '
It seems...

Aye, Spanish Needles, far from native shore
We the Diaspora exult to meet
Though our station, not what we dreamt of yore
Is battered by grimy dust and slimed sleet
Aye, Spanish Needles, still unbowed you stand
A dazzling prince...

Don’t see it lady May….

 

Dark demon from the nether world,

From into-outer space was hurled,

And came by Dumbo jet,

He came to prey on lady May,

An older shiela, ninety say,

Who liked dem toy boys just a...

Myself, Armed Only With A Dying Flame


Dark travels in such a long life
early days of hungering strife
A child born to fight for it
tasting ton of salt in every spit

  
Lost on pathways that breathe...

Each day's dawn is a miracle, grateful I am
To discover the sun even rose,
Thank the Lord that I still have a tent
For so few college grads have a job.
Before taking your meds (prices rising each...

 Only in memory
 Paving the way for others
 with dreams and aspirations
 Arriving at these shores 
 To prosper achieving those dreams
 And hopes that our forefather set

Hola, Spain, Would You Take Florida Back?

By Elton Camp

From the time of its first sight
Florida was sure no delight
Sand and bugs and way too hot
Is just about all that place’s got

Ponce de Leon learned the...

Self-certainty is sweet like sugar (drug of choice for ‘human race’),
its bloated, fake-blond, cotton logic, never does reveal its face.
Masks lure men to their death, use phantom sensuality to dupe.
The ‘ship of state’ gets smashed...

Yes, certainty is sweet like sugar (drug of choice for 'human race'), 
its bloated, fake-blond, cotton logic, never does reveal its face.
Masks lure men to their death, use whorish sensuality to dupe.

Cascades of chirping birds
pour down in colorful swarms 
while I walk the same clean roads 
you just walked yesterday.

A toy stuck in its mechanism
I religiously search 
Over and over, I vacuum
all areas of town.

Under the...

I am such a moon struck human
(who swallows lots of cumin)
but stars, they have their way
(a potter throwing clay)
of making souljumps proper
Like hippie Dennis Hopper          ...

It's like the same ordinary day,
When pen and thoughts unite.
Muse and views haunt my mind.
This is a day I celebrate and write.

One year of expressing love,
One year of creating rhymes.
One year of friendship on line.
Counting...

Looking past the mirror,
My mind's reflection adored a youthful smile seen ;
Your warmth remembers me,
Just the way it used to BE.....

You energize my soul. 
Being around you is 
rejuvenating. 
I feel Ponce de Leon
adventurous and
go in search of
your fountain of youth
Mornings I dream of you,  
nightly fetishes, and 
my imagination ensues. 
Touch myself, wishing...

Him
Some indecent evening you may see a ferret strangler
While he’s baying at the moon
Horse farts seem a little angrier
If they cannot keep in tune
Ponce across the withered lawn
While the first new bindei stings
Bloodshot eyes hung...

Once again mankind hopes and gathers  
Looking towards sunlight after the worse of days
But now released mankind laughs and sings
The young dance
The old with crinkling wrinkles smile
Yet sleep does not come easily
 For the...

Maybe he should have used his socks.

Those who have are fewer still
Than all the castles edged with time's ruin
The havenots lack no sparse of will
To litter their bread on a fruitless moon

The silent millions...
