- JANUARY -

A freezing cold evening

Where the stars shining bright

With frost blade flanks

From mouth and nose steam

In the clear silence

White untrodden snows

Nature's frozen pulse

Sleep like a little baby

One gracious moon

After the night the...

You boogie
Think you untouchable 
Entitled you feel... 
Bully????

Self-absorbed

No self-worth 
Looking out side your self, 
For validation 
Holding to toxic love...

At the point of a saber
Now we are at the point of danger

PUNGENTLY POIGNANT (STRONG & EMOTIONAL)

I am from the Mississippi Delta where cotton use to grow.
	I am a codified bonified mind that way sets the flow.
When Hurricane Katrina hit, the vibes of so-called power were felt.

Economic Racism

Would a person be a lesser human being
If they were to replace the iron links
Around their necks with gold chains,
Or the shackles on their wrists and ankles,
With gold bracelets?
Would they be considered compromised
To the...

Caged Women, treated like cave women,
 not by our men like long ago.
Caged women, treated like crazed women, 
a power struggle only few women know.
Dominated to the fullness
Not a chance in hell to win
Degraded beyond...

I used to move as fast as cars
runways built in space and mars.
I would dart as far as I could trace 
the words moving off the chart

Every other sound that rhymes 
Feels like argh, I...

Something gruesome so madly insane that even my...

Consider
the Chimpansee,
are we from them ? I
wonder, these,
This one is smart
and can use tools,
Our elder caveman, 
murderers, rules,
The cannibals from
the trees?

They kill in battle
other Chimps,
And eat an enemy
dead an limp,
Jungle rules are
these,
Invested with spirit
man,
A lonesome...

I dread to read the headlines 
They are so filled with strife 
The tyranny and trauma 
Has touched on every life. 
What is it with us humans
We think we are supreme
We are but a corpuscle...

Talk about power struggle
I've been in the middle of it
Ever since mum and dad hit a puddle
And they were like they'd had enough of it 

We were young to see the cracks
Maybe we sat on...

A country in turmoil 
I watched frantically as
The world’s peace seems to
Be slipping away
As the coronavirus rages on
Trying to connect itself with
Everyone in its path and
There seems to be no cure
Nor end in sight, only...

From the moment you were born,
From my own hand you arrived.
You’ll always hold that special place inside me,
Until the day I die.

From day two you were mine,
We took everything in our stride.
You completed our little...

Beneath kohl sky,  the war of words rattles
As fierce lightning of his voice, my thunderous replies
Pour a lethal elixir,  its venom malignant
Demanding a  power struggle between forces,
On one tearing night which assaults...

Its precarious, what we have
On scales, I perform a balancing act
Desperate to trust blindly,
Wishing I could be so brave as to throw my heart on line
I can’t, practicality is my curse

Aim to please
Aim to kill
Kill with kindness
Kill time
Time flies
Time to go
Go the distance
Go home
Home sweet home
Home free
Free to roam
Free falling
Falling down
Falling in love
Love is blind
Love hurts
Hurts like hell
Hurts so good
Good vibrations
Good to know 
Know your...
