Long Straightest Poems

Bowing to the East,
a sacred obligation,
comforting
and curious forehead down
to kiss this humble ground
of ego's straight supremacy

Including fat white men 
buttocks up
and yintegrity open to receive

To imagine Allah's horniest Tao
amid straightest men
together worshiping Earth's political ground

Yes, the boy continued working
as people ran on by -
kicking up the sun-dried sand
which stung his little eye.

The beach was full of castles,
sand castles great and tall.
The artists had great patience as
the crowd was held...

Christmas of my tenth year brought a four-ten shotgun.
No longer a tag-along kid
Assaulting the deep drifts struggling to keep up,
But a real hunting buddy.

First rule was to memorize the ten commandments of gun safety.
I labored...

trembling t'wards dawn's path today
anorexic pale horizons lay
starved of light, of hope
sans by your leave or come -
I cried, i sighed
'oh.. stay with me
please.. please.. pleas ..
hold my emptiness'

pale yellow sheets became worn grey
presumption rinsed...

Africana, Serengeti kaleidoscopes
I painted with Zebra isotopes
 My ethnicity abounds from my
 afro follicles.
 Black fruit with pink middle 
 My garden cultivates Nubian yokes
forever bound like 
 Sampson tied to temple pillars 
 pulling...

Its almost like I'm looking at myself in the mirror
Just in a different body that is
I mean we say the same things
Blurt the same numbers in games
Hold the same talents 
Being highly dramatic in speech...

My fellow pilgrims on life’s path,
I greet you here today
To share a tale of gratitude
For help along our way.

Our best route is the straightest path,
And narrow from the gate.
But most of us went crashing through
As...

There's some stories old men tell
Just so they can hear themselves
Always hold a certain ring
With their own brand of embellishing

Around the stove in the old country store
If they've told it once, they've told it more
Look...

Confident stride in a broken face.
Can you guess who lost the race?

Straightest line along a path.
Can the stray cat do the math?

Every time in every way,
Our hero fails to save the day,

And has to try...

Depression is a shape poem 
A difficult one in times of contemplation 
A shape that gets you, almost in nothingness 
Whispers darkness in the valley of your chest. 
Where the minaret stood in the bed...

When someone says something off the wall
We say, “That’s for the birds,” but I wonder,
Do birds have an affinity for the ridiculous
This is something we might carefully ponder.

And who came up with “as the crow...

Why couldn't we be best friends my love
Our hearts afire, once matched  like a glove
Yet your eyes are now distant from me
Be best friends my love, why couldn't we

I've been the straightest arrow you...

Life is filled
with ups and downs.
The straightest path 
will spin you around.
Your in the black.
Your in the red.
Things stop changing
because your dead.

The hands of time 
move on without
your tears of joy
or fears and doubt.
We ride...

Gay is the straightest word
It takes a stand
Says I am different 
But I do not care
I love the one I love
I have a connection
I know how to touch that emotion
Gay is happy
Gay is strange
Gay we...

There is a line drawn straight and true
By a pencil of fear
Its erasable 
Seems simple in context
But so difficult to write
In world so consumed by regret
Where does a simple line in life come into play
Every...
