declaring “Thus saith the...

She's the smallest thing in the house;
Yet, she makes the most noise.
She barks at the jingling keys,
Turning knobs and closing doors.
She struts from room to room
With arrogance, but no poise.
She runs in frantic circles;
With no...

My hair wet and smelling with sweat.
Palms are shaking if I had done something.
My memory does not let me pass a certain point.
I tried to grab my head, such...

The gentle giant
Towered above his friends
Six foot four, mammoth
His size lost on the truth
Of his kindness
He was mild and tender
Like the elephant 
His spirit whispered
Instead of screaming
He was mellow
Like serenity, soothing

Michael, named for an angel
He...

America

Let's all hate it?
Sorry, I don't understand.
All countries have problems!
One can always leave.
That's an option we have.
But, other countries have limits.
and qualifications.
And no, you cannot just walk in.

To me this country belongs to
God.
No group claiming,...

slivers of gold sifted out
glints of sunshine
cutting through clouds
only for moments
we traipse through thick thorny vines
grabbing around our ankles 
each day falling into holes
of kids screaming
climbing jagged mountains
of bosses needing more 
more of our thinly...

Good counsel

The enforced sleep to blind it all,
restless thoughts and what may befall.
Rescued from tensions to clear,
the truth so free that there is no more fear.
Tormented fortunes destiny in wilderness,
all tired receiving gladsomeness.
The pilgrimage as...

Poet:  Ken Jordan
Poem:  Keep The Faith
Edited by:  Sparkle Jordan
written: January/2015


I jus 
be damn 

if I 
stand around

and 
watch you
have

a
Meltdown -

Stressing
over
someone
else's, 

ungratefulness
and
selfishness -

No way!

Not when
you
have given 

 all 
that

you have
to
give -

and

the 
ones
that you 

are
giving too,

take your
caring heart
for
granted.

And

they have 
the 
audacity 

to
think that

they
can use
you -

Truth
is:

the
more you
give,

the
more 
they want -

Yet
you keep
on
giving,

because
it's in

your 
DNA -

I want you
to 
know

that your
life 
means more 
to me,

than frowns
and
vacant...

Visions of happiness have portrayed itself in crimes.
Visions of sadness delivered upon the break of sun.
Each new day...

Empty hearts;
Broken faces;
Displaced smiles;
Feelings of ungratefulness;

Crowded minds;
Rushing times;
Points of uneasiness;
Hurting rhymes...

My Oh!!! My
Why?

Broken promises;
Misplaced harnesses;
How can I embrace my fellowman;
Where is his love;
Why he hate me so;
And what am I to do when he says...
