Strategically placed when raised 
Upwards
By your masterful and well

That frown down with arrogant

This just and tolerant island.
To study and pontificate upon...

I Am Also Not Perfect

1. Your few dents don’t join to form a rabble
I am still in growth, talking in babbles
not bad to be a hen and a sparrow
still much needed by me, a straight arrow
from the two sides,...

Fertile Crescent, Iii

Fertile Crescent
and Vestigial Conscience

The sun overshadowing my morality
my self- righteousness eclipsed

Where early mans' dawn is, 
Our sun over my left *should* threaten to tinge me if
I pontificate platitudes that fail to connect us to

Who feather their own nests and leave you in a mess

If I Decide To Write

Tonight I will not write
of stars, nor moon,
seeds of wisdom--
just mind flattering
bloom--

Nor will I write of love--
neither here nor above;
though our dearest 
sentimentality, the heart, 
too often foolishly enacts 
its own fatality;

and if I decide...

Ennui Sets In

"Ennui Sets In”

Whenever pen is placed
Between purloined phalanges,
When my mind unfolds and tears along the seams,
I know it’s time to move my thoughts,
Through the underground;
That dark crusty void
Of dreary dreams diminished,
Where loose hell raisers floss...

Betrayal from others is what they felt!
As it looks at it gift they pontificate whether they can give the gift its needs.
The gift is happy and...

O to grouse in a glass house

Much of what US Envoy said,
Had he been wise, would not have said,
For, boomerang-like back such words do head.
When it comes to ‘murder for hire’,
No nation than US scores higher.
It backs Canada’s claims at once

A Nation In Crisis

A NATION IN CRISIS…FALLING APART

It has been said that America
is an experiment in democracy.

Nineteen children would be alive and happy;
Two fine teachers would be grading papers!

AN AFRICAN AMERICAN PERSPECTIVE: 2025

AN AFRICAN AMERICAN PERSPECTIVE:  2025

As Garvey echoed,
Only we can truly
Interpret our own
True reality:-
Thus, let us get to
Today’s above-ground
Railroading of ourstory
Engine-recking the lies

Jim Crow based history,
Clearly blood-inking
The political reality,
That America was,
And never will...
