Oh Black Americans

Oh! Black Americans,  
Africa is your motherland 
And most Africans love you 
Not because you are called African Americans 
And lost your African mother tongues
And cultures. 
Being called Americans while speaking 
African dialects , suit...

My Body

My body 
Was made to dance.
This is a fact,
Not a truth
That could be manipulated 
Like a piece of rope
Being made into a knot.
 
My body
Was made to sway
And flow,
To dip low
And reach high
To the rhythms
Of...

Academic Confessions

Sometimes when the calypso music explodes
Shards of memories glistening with my pain
My heart like a rhumba box sits silent again
Where slow surfs lap granite doors, genius erodes
The barriers that dreams could stream and rise
Like sprays...

Montego Bay Memories

I hear the panting of the feet
Like calypso music, breathless and sweet
The rhumba playing in the heart
And diverse tongues caught by the web of art
Same as the mento of the sea
Same as the mento of...

Danny the Dancing Dragon

Danny Dragon learned to dance the Samba,
then he wanted to learn the Rhumba,
the Hustle, Jitterbug and Boogie Woogie,
with his little friend Salugi.

All day and night they’d shake and shimmy,
oh, Danny and Salugi often got quite...

My Affinity For Them

You see, apart from well brewed coffee,
And soothing rhumba spiced with jazz,
I love women, no l ladies, yes lasses,
They are like whimsical poetry.

Women are well endowed beings,
Beings with soothing lovely voices,
Beings that walk around with...

The Last Dance

While careening with Carene,
a boogie-woogie with Wanita, wow!
Then, a whirl with Pearl,
a jiggy jig with Jacqueline.
At intervals rhumba with a Rosalie.
An experimental ballet
with Bonnie, Bob, and Blaire.
Thanks, Charlie, for the Cha-cha-cha!
A quick shimmy with Shailene,
disco...

Summer In Wild Abandon

POTD
Tipping the light with curves arched 
and flowing with rain,
she mounts her tinseled limbs
 
on summertime's  crest--
   The trees, seeds, and flame 
in her eyes lightly open
 the fingertips of near August.

Quick...

Ghosts

Dense implosion of infinite desire
Dead to the sensual stirrings
Events search
Stretch for eager horizons
Blackness
Blackens the mood and raises spirits

Times spaces
Interregnums of intense longing
Hang limply on half uttered words
Pleading eyes call to the stars
Summon the traveling muse
Half...

Pulse of Manila

This sunset of peach crowns the bay, aglow
While Manila lies in tropical bliss 
This region bustling with tunes as nights flow  
Along street cafes  where friends reminisce.

The jam of guitars floods a moonlit...

I watched in the woods, until as I wished,          
Upon a mossy rock lit an ouzel
In a shaft of light shining ‘midst the mists

As the Night Dances

The winds of evening and circumstance
Blow into my soul with vision and light
Breathlessly lift my feet to the night
Surrender my soul to this wondrous dance

Locked in rhapsody,wrapped in your arms
Living the beat as we dip...
