Long Scripting Poems

The Story of History  

Beyond those beaten days’ depleted daylight
Beyond the bathos of a pandemic bondage
With  the resurrected  sashay’s charmed night
Down in the dumps   at the pretentious  proscenium

This is a lethal ink injection.
I know I’m blessed to have rejection 
Haters in my life 
only lead to introspection 
Understand 
I’m still the man
Who are you to question 
I agree to disagree
With all your...

Ice cold mic hold 
A flow that’s so ferocious 
a Higher level focus
Exposes my neurosis

Yoga poses lotus 
Possibly psychosis 
Or Musical symbiosis

Sometimes life hurts, when lost upon crossroads of fate,
until those...

As the mediterranean torrents 
thawed away this wildflower of Medusa ~
once roaring in merciless thunders, 
now, I'm found swaying,
midst lemongrass fields ~
conversing with freshwater naiads
for, every weed is a storyteller

Once upon a time, 
when juliet was a jewel 
of psychedelic phrases ~ 
steering rubies of romance 
to distant shores, 
where sapphire seafoam 
had never kissed the silence of sands ~ 
there blossomed an ode,...

When the saint sun
is reborn from
the womb of wisteria,
rising above symphonies ~
scripting a saga,
of enlightenment
and coral coloured karma,
I ripple in rosettes,
as an avatar
of himalayan heartbeats ~
gently gushing
in lavender lullabies
of golden Gaia ~
her earth-glinted garlands
cradling me

In the concrete jungle where the city's breath stirs,
Civilized man wanders, a ghost in artificial whispers,
Lost to the wild call of instinct’s embrace,
Trapped in a maze of steel, devoid of nature's grace.
His feet tread on...

And the red demons screamed aloud,
miseries and gories of a black scary death hurried by in the middle of the night.
My father's  shrine quaked in pity, 
My mother's excited wrapper loosed. 
Cain hurried by...

Metaphors and similes flow freely from my pen 
when I am scripting and scribing in poetic verse.
Across the width of pale parchment pages 
the nib of my feathered pen continues to traverse.
Ink courses fathoms deep...

Columbus, you again
Your rotten caravels still unforgotten
Silhouette of flitting bats 
And old wives tale of true honor
For at each wheel
The old African seamen
Rana Raraku
And their big nose images of the Ra
Those who mined iron
For Hittite...

It exists in the mind of a drifter;
That lives outside the realm of norm
It's a primary collector and curator of information,
And is designed to protect, serve and inform.
   From within its posture it...

In the amalgamation of days, we forge a merciless kingdom,
Telling stories of a future where fear and betrayal share a cold kiss.
A land of howling blizzards, where the heart freezes to find its place,
In a...

of ecstasy and swan

I am the birth of
an unholy emancipation,  
watching dusk settle 
upon forbidden shores,  
unfolding sinister shadows,  
while ravens gather 
as harbingers of my arrival.  
Tonight I am the seductress, 
tempting temptress...

Oh, mythical fairy, how bashfully you woo me tonight
Attuning love’s lyrics to music of the passionate night
Alluring astral delight, the moon and stars you invite
Dazzling passions emanating from your enticing eyes
Twinkling celestial heights in scintillating...

Shrubbery leaves and foliage, all these very gloriously and graciously green,
In my verdant jade roof top garden, reflect greenness on my laptop screen.

In the echoes of Ukraine’s broken streets,
The cries of mothers replace the lullabies.
Children learn war before they know peace,
And rubble replaces their dreams of skies.

A theater of power, painted in blood,
Where egos clash and empires...

I'm just ripping and scripting all of this out.
Imagining if I was out there in the crowd.
This poem is written with a little "Bootsy" in it.
A baseline that turns it...
