Long Talk is cheap Poems

I went from ghetto living
And the ghetto kind of days
To being up out of it
And to seeing better days.
Now the truth stays 
And my mind plays,
in a blessed way
defying the lie defining me 
in my...

Flustered, but I’m moving on from here
I can’t wait to hold you oh so dear
Haunted by the forgettable dreams I’ve been having lately
Taunted by the chorus of voices in my head 
Losing control due to...

You are looking bright tonight
Astonished by the dazzling sight
You brought tears to my eyes as always
You bring to me your secret stories of days in the sun rays

I'm gazing lightyears into the future
I was tracing...

Your touch got me acting so crazy 
Got my body screaming from your heat 
Knocks me off my feet 
Drop me on my knees and give it to me right 
You got me jumping and...

Another day
Another mass shooting
?Another incident
of domestic terrorism
?another gun man
killing people
because just because?
The NRA ?And their stooges?
Come out?
Flood the airways
With their noxious
Poisonous weasel words
?The NRA says
Mass shootings? 
Are like the weather
?You can’t control them
You can’t predict...

Talk is Cheap - Battle Rap

Yo, Ima outcheek you… gimme that mic,
I’m lethal, a viper ready to strike;

The world doesn't care unless you're pretty or dead
If you're not a Kardashian they won't care about what you said
I'm unsure if I'm here to stay or if I'm just visiting 
But I'll force your...

We have the left; we have the right.
In the political arena they both fight.

Always claiming to be on our side,
With ferocious rhetoric, opponents they deride.

Vote for us, to be saved from a vicious clan’s
Reckless and...

too many things in my mind 
some times I know

too many thought going

There is no escape from strange morning whims, 
when irritation causes numbness in my limbs.
Dawn has become an unwelcome nemesis, 
rage for sunrise an uncontrollable genesis,
disturbing the peace of my silent reverie, 
tormenting all that...

Gold gates, smiles, and happy times,
Making songs, lyrics, and surreal rhymes,
Lay me down so close; so near,
Hold my hand right there,
The grips so tight,
The cancer to fight,
Hold my hand right there,
Love surrounds each wall,
As speed...

The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core

By condo fence
Bird choir melody;
Song of July


Marriage banquet
Hosts in finery;
Guests and feast sparkle


Gratitude speaks
Spilling fond banter;
Bride and groom delight


Distant laughter
Prompts curious eyes;
Ears on the prowl


See moments crisp
Potato chips tasty;
TV sitcom drama 


Evening comes around
Rare red...

And the pilot has turned off the fasten seat belt sign 
Does not mean you should hurry to get out of your seat,
It will be five minutes before they...

12/7/22


All over the map
Can't stay on track
Still inside a shack
Drinking yak
While it's pitch black

Listening for the sound of a songbird
Not living long term
Still taking a wrong turn
Giving into strong urge

Honestly I'm barely mad
I'm just very...

Nerves hang out at the idle pump
Gas don't pump itself thinks Mr. Rich
While Bubba plants himself out front
Like an un-watered flower in the sun  
Picks his nose and spits tobacco
Scratches private parts at no...

How should we remember them?
Those men and women -
Who have died for us?
How should we remember them?
Do we remember them in thoughts?
- only come in once in a while
Do we remember them in salutation?

You love this man you claim, But still you flirt with others
On your hand, tattooed his name, Saying I love you is hardly the same

Getting drunk to feel alive, Solely but slowly your dying inside
