	and he suckled her breast till the end.
The slaver sought cash, bestowed mammy a thrash,
	sold her...

As October 1 approaches, HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY……………………
I have enormous tracts of land and vast volumes of water, but cannot feed myself.
So I spend $1 billion to import rice and another $2 billion on milk.
I produce...

Hanging pictures today February 5th, 2021 with the missus...
(in an attempt to cover up (overlay) fruit fly waste byproduct)

At four feet eleven (fifty nine inches),
the spouse longitudinally challenged
hence she browbeats her husband,

Living happy and content
is to celebrate the lilt of life
a treasure gifted by God.

We join the celebration happily
with gifts wrapped nicely
in flashy wrappers designed to capture
the eyes and to enrobe crafted pieces
of our unclad hearts...

Forever in the wind, the gale, the tempest gone……
though, lingering caress of cheek and thigh remains		
as does the precious memory of fires glow.			
Winds leavings lesson, shreds the sheets of time’s retreat	
and, at last, the snow...

The blood and lapis daylight sets
in ether. How the mind resets
brutality of winter chill
with February's codicil;
what gossamer a dream begets.

I hear the crickets in the dark,
their clicking takes up where the lark
has been. The flagrant...

We approach the house, to trick-or-treat, but wonder if we dare
The porch is dark, no light or spark, to help us find the way
We peek inside, ........does the old man hide?  We see no...

We are lost cities finding reasons 
to join our broken aspirations together,
a lost elegies uprooting tubers of yam planted by our forebearers,
dreams seeking for home and abode to abide by in the nexus of classism.
We've...

It  was  very cold outside .
 Mist and fog engulfed everything on the earth
 to be viewed by mortal eyes . 
I was roaming aimlessly – 
unclad with any manmade clothes .

Each day's dawn is a miracle, grateful I am
To discover the sun even rose,
Thank the Lord that I still have a tent
For so few college grads have a job.
Before taking your meds (prices rising each...

The tribulation of women under men
Had a start and will have an end,
Says the millennia old book of books.
It will end by divine intervention!

The book tells of a blessed start of man,
Living in an earthly...

I can't seem to find myself, where am I, why is it so dark here, too many doors when i touch the wall.

Collecting my scattered guts, I push a door open, hoping to find a...

It’s cool and the dusk is young yet,
The sun is taking its time to set beyond the mountain tops
I try to enjoy my fourth legal beer in the backyard
Also known as The Upper Room,
Where I...

Mother's love grew into a sour myth.
I spewed out her milk
into the stygian sea
that brought the merchants
whose merchandise were deep, immortal musings
on a new-found love.

Solitude was there
filled with eros that left
every monk defiled.
Unclad she was...

She pleasures with her eyes,
attractive lights in any language.
Rivulets of lustrous hair frame this angel.
Swelling lips search for a warm surface.

Seductive hands remove his outer layers,
while her actions are reciprocated.
The serene light reveals lace undergarments
woven...

Sunlight streams through a crystallized window pane
flinging fragments of light across the wall.
Clear, my eyes take in this unclad display
as the ticks of the clock mark a lifeline of passing.
Shadows begin to flee the assailing...

Picking Okra was Before Child Abuse
or
I'd Rather Eat a Possum
By: Tom Wright

Layers of clouds lay overhead,
perhaps a summer rain.
Though tempted to denounce,
as a child, I would refrain.
A carpet of dust surrounds bare feet,
large drops are...

A little mischief's all I had in mind,
Was nothing bad,
Was just a fad,
But more than just some trouble did I find,
I was unclad,
Which made them mad.

They called it 'streaking', so I thought I'd try,
It was...

On the edge of town, in a painted house, with unclad shades of gray
the north winds claim the somber dawn, on a dismal winter day
The trees bend low and the sun peeks in, as he...

Let's strut down the gardens;
the vines have budded, 
And the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.

Take my breath and I'm yours;
Insigne my finger, I'll cling to you;
Shall I call you...

I thought about you lots last night
The moon and I were friends
We kept each other company
Companions 'til the end

I counted sheep to fall asleep
It didn't work too well
But once I had you on my mind

If Christ in his triumph and glory
Decides to unravel a new chapter and story
By returning from whence he departed,
He shall in stupefaction be started,
To find out this wanton era
Has indeed,  bested Sodom and Gomorrah.
