Coping Naturally
Yellow bottle caps
The pills to challenge my fear
May need pills to help me sleep
Don't like medicine
Its toxins with side effects
Thats why I take supplements

A Naturally Beautiful Outlook
An island sunset, when mango moon is calling,
Lush palm fronds sway, when the day is stalling.
Ivory tailed comet, comes but once in a lifetime,
Sitting in tropical sunset, at just the right time.
Gemmed hummingbird sparkle. Destiny dreams.
Pink sun is roving. Glossy crows' feathers gleam.
What was left behind, is often recalled to mind;
Yet, plum fate isn't unkind,

Naturally Fermented
The time of vibracy has dissolved
and the crust on my skin, tells me I'm old
days of plodding feet and passive motion
are upon me
my candlelight grows shorter as each day passes
and I become a fungus covered stump
slowly disintegrating
attentive to memories that I still hold
that have been naturally fermented

The Three Naturally Occuring States Of Matter
There is matter everywhere around us,
From tea to cups.
It is something which has volume and mass,
Present in three naturally occurring states of solid, liquid and gas.
Solids have a definite shape and volume,
With maximum density that is mass per unit volume.
They resist the flow,
From toe to hoe.
They do not get compressed,
thereby, there melting and boiling

Unfold Naturally
Never thought this would be so hard
To realize I still love you only to know u may never be mine
Years have passed but the feelings are still the same
Misunderstandings and miscommunication are to blame
I wait for things to unfold unnaturally
I wish to open the door and cry in your arms faithfully
Longing to kiss you so

naturally protective reflex
Mayonnaise in my mouth;
it was turkey—the first Pollack
I saw. His fault that the splatter
looked like a forgotten egg on the side.
Walking toward the waste
basket, I threw up in it after.
It tasted like sour metal
with rusty, iron edges.
At the sides of it, not

NATURALLY AS IT IS
Drawing a face
It is like assigning the pieces
Into one
Modifying a drawing
It is like uttering the sequence
Into words
A mystery,
Birds always make a sound
But what sound are they making?
Interesting as it I'd
Waves always move back and fourth
But what movement are they showing?
Amazing as it is
A landing,
Writing on a paper
It is like putting an ink

Naturally
Subtly significant for the cause,
Ripped apart by men,
Revering the reign of the lord,
Fools caught up in the act,
Making change prosper,
Or an effort toward it the least.
What failed was agony,
Disbelief of fauna and flora,
Once brimmed with confidence,
Flooding of the bloodsucking leech,
Man yelled at the being.
Tree hanging by the ridge,
Suffocated by newly fought freedom,
Of façade of expression

Alone Again - Naturally
Constant pounding of the Bullmastiff's tail.
I know you are approaching.
You wont speak, I don't expect it. You bring the mail.
The summer's heat is encroaching.
You being here is a comforting thought.
I've been restless waiting for you to appear.
You don't come as often as I feel you ought.
The days are longer now, more to fear.
Oppressive temperatures, I

My Color Is Naturally Human
Do you think your colors matter?
My beautiful shades do not matter
Because my natural color is human
And I am a being created in the image
Of the Almighty God. I am like a page
With a rainbow in his heart. I am a man
Who’s proud to be who he is. Color is not
Important for me. I am interested

Naturally Indian
I'm potiguara
I come from hollow and rare backgrounds
plowing in the feverish forest of the heart
I come against history
of this unequal and cruel nation
living in the gall pasture
without honeycomb
my blood distills twine
life of dust, life of poem
I'm still like that whether I want to or not
in tacit mutation...
I'm an Indian, I'm your brother...!

Unplug the Machines and Let Death Come Naturally
When and if the time should ever
come when all is said and that can
be has been done
And the only signs or form of life
that remains is being kept alive
via electronic machines
Believing he could no longer or would
wish to fight on otherwise he surely
would have
Then gather round all that loved this
poor soul whilst still alive

Naturally, Fatefully
Let affinities naturally be, ?
For loving others as they are, is the key.
Let romances fatefully occur,
For with meaning, fondness is sure.

Pink Is Naturally Uninhibited
Dreaming of frogs playing guitars, lounging on a campfire pyre,
Her manifestation of these little hopping miniatures tickled her
Naturally nude with an upside down hat, she was uninhibited, fully exhibited.
Two prissy potential suiters ran out screaming, recognizing her strength.
Attitudes of grandeur did not play in her head.
She meant no harm to these males; yet they had
