Neva Poems

A mother

#She's a mother, your mother, time and space might denied her almost all her wishes and dreams bt she forged wth all she have for yours to materialize. She might be nt educated, speak nor understand english bt she pushed u to a level better than hers. 

She might not afford decent clothes, though she's working bt u luk better than ur neighbours, she denies hrself better, for u to be lyk others. She mind nt wearing masantase nor having pap n morogo for lunch all her lyf, as long as u neva go to bed on an empty stomach n u neva walk barefooted, for she's a mother, your mother

she might be nt all sophisticated n clever bt she knws  n meets hr role s a mother, she may not say much bt wat she does for u, is way beyond sophistication n clever, thts her love for u n hw she values u nt wat ths earth has to offer

she knows hr responsibility, she knows u way more than any being, she's a mother, your mother, irrigardless of hr looks, her belongings, her rank, none of these is n wl neva be above the fact tht she's a mother, your mother

Reputation Rumba

It’s busy at tha deli, 
So get ya-self in line an take a numba.
Got a special on baloney. 
We’re gonna dance tha reputation rumba.

No matta its location, 
A house is only ca-pentry and lumba.
You can neva be a homey 
Unless ya do tha reputation rumba.

Tha butta betta be thea, 
Rega-dless o tha pressa ya been unda.
Once tha lobsta’s on tha boila, 
It’s time to do tha reputation rumba.

Tha masta’s on a benda; 
That menace in his pocket’s no cucumba.
Betta shake ya salt and peppa, 
He means to dance tha reputation rumba.

Miss Scarlett come a callin’ 
With demons gonna haunt you while you slumba.
Left a baby on ya da-step.
That’s how ya do tha reputation rumba.

And since ya daddy took a powda, 
Ya can hea the sound o’ gossip loud as thunda.
It’s as clea as oysta chowda, 
That dance step’s called tha reputation rumba.

Goodbye

Wrote a poem called 'GOODBYE', it's for everyone whos lost someone they cherish and love.. 

GOODBYE POEM
We don't wanna say goodbye 
We don't wanna let you go
Cos we know we're neva get to hear 
Your voice say good morning and hello. 

We'll never get to see you smile
Or hear you cackle and laugh
We'll never get to hug you tight
And fall asleep in your arms. 

It's so hard to fight back the tears 
To look at memories that were made
It's so hard not to remember your last words
And know nothing will ever be the same. 

We don't want to say goodbye, cos that means you have left, we wanna keep you 
In our hearts with every beating of the chest. 

For you are the most kindest person 
A treasure to everyone , you were the wind beneath our wings who kept us safe and taught us how to be strong. 

So now you know how we feel there's sumthink we need to say, 'WE LOVE YOU' to the moon and back and will meet again some sunny day.

Aunt Neva

My old Aunt Neva
Loved to shop
In the 3-7-9 store
For small-girl outfits
To wear on her arms.

One Last Time

I guess time’s wastin’
You already saw me and her tastin’
Blinded by the trust you thought we were lastin’
You can be my Bonnie and I can be your Clyde
In your dreams, we playing husband and wife
But babe excuse me for bursting your bubble
You blame me for inviting  loads of trouble
Was good to you till we shared a puff
Now you go behind my back and call my bluff
I guess I was neva enough
We went from nothin’ to somethin’
Likin’ to Lovin’
But now we just in’
Each other, over and over
Another day, Another bed cover
How soon do we forget how we felt
Dealing with emotions that never left
Your loss is like OD on DMG
Wakin’ up wasted like we did in the sixty
in’ a dozen hoes in a single night
But  with you was different
Rubbin’ you like meth and still neva high
Nothing compares the rush which made me fly
Can’t even be sorry without her breath entwined in mine
Did a mistake, not a crime
Come back baby, 
I promise to make things right
If I have you beside

Ze Hiena

Hienas don't taik cair of higeen;
we’r fond of karrion; we drink warm jin
wizaut tonik and we neva uze
ze mornin afta peels. 
                                  “Beest's on ze looz!” -
you shaut in panik, raizin flags of truce
over your comfy gravez but we refewz
to uphold dead men rites. Oh, wat a feest
of flesh! Ze dead will neva rest in peast.

Personal Turmoil

PERSONAL TURMOIL BY DE’KARI
 
I’m this way, that way. Up, down. Lost, Found
Soul tormented, screams tremendous, listen!.... No sound
I am what I’ve always been, confusion and chaos
No sleep, nor dreams, it seems that I’m lost
I’m a soldier with no war, a Honey Bee with no honey
I’m a prophet with no vision! A father with no money
Lord Please…. Ish Allah…. Mother Earth direct my path
Guidance I seek, ghetto refugee, wish I can smile, can’t remember the sound of laughter
 
I go, stay. Leave. Come. Follow, no lead
Through storms and floods, wade. Can’t drown take heed
Paid attention, mental weight lifting. Momma- great teacher yes she was
Was lost, now found. Stolen, replaced, amazing my Grace, She…. I love
Blind but I see the courage that I need
Neva to give up, no matter what I must succeed
No tears, I smile, no frowns I now remember laughters sound
From mist, Sun’s kiss, evaporate, condensate, rain drop I fall… to the ground

Love

with mesmerizing allure 1/2 touch I'm sure, 1 dash of your....
Angelic Smile!

I know it's been a while, but believe since a child
I've pondered and wondered how I could be that Wow!....
In your eyes if you'd allow

This here man-child to reach within somehow
2 quarts of style, produce 1 mild--....
Form of commitment

I know I transcended, said it would be different
Yet messed up tremendous, but Neva was my intention--
Not to produce what I mention, If you love, then Forgiveness
I Seek and Need

To protect this Recipe, and Vision you next to me
Shed tears regretfully, no longer next to me
Sensual loving, no sexing me

This is the Recipe!

Books Neva Chose

Life of wisdom
Time holding back
Tryin to keep my ass on track
I ain't ever given back
What i learned
What i tried not to see
Days for days
Weeks in a haze
Knowledge being disposed
Books neva chose
Looking for dreams in the sky
But too high
To realize
Look up if you wanna find
All you lookin for
Dreams float up fool
They dont live on the floor

Its About Tyme

I was once on the block doin nothin but chasing dreams 
bein a shadow to a phantom you kno what i mean. 
my goals were only one an that was make it thru the day 
an my acheivements was only one an that was if by that tyme i got paid. 
so you can c why my lyfe went down the drain 
sprialing outta control lost in this game. 
but most all my mistakes are becoming my lessons 
an i realize now that i neva really got to count my blessings. 
cuz i may be at my bottom but i can only go up from here 
been to hell an bacc but aint got tyme to shed a tear. 
now i realize its about tyme i asked 4 sum help 
cuz ive been on my kness nite an day prayin 4 a way out. 
I can no longer c thru all this darkness ive been walkin round blind 
an now i need a lil light an im thinkin its about tyme......

Restart

Turn and look at me
Lie to me, Your truth 
Build me up with your dirty words
Whispered loudly, left to echo with uncouth

Disgusted Reflections
Even the mirrors have lost sight
Too many people needing to look just right,unscathed in that flawless perfect light
Why don't you move to my left
'Cause you know you ain't right

TEAR OPEN MY WOUNDS
BLEED OUT MY HEART
 PLEASE, HURT ME
NEVA FRONT ME
JUST TRY AND HUNT ME
WANNA LOVE ME
CANT LOVE ME
HIT.......RESTART

Savage

SAVAGE 
Walking tall
Head held high
Long snake eyed curls
A diamond sparkled lie
Damn girl, where'd you get them eyes
Those legs just go on for days 
Scent of suga butter Neva leaves always stays

ONE OF A KIND GIRL
A WHERE DO I GET ME ONE GIRL
ALWAYS WALKIN' that WALK GIRL
SHES NEVA A  TALKIN that TALK FAKE GIRL
THAT GIRL
THAT GIRLS A SAVAGE

Always got my back
Never talking back
Southern Soul 
This life it's taken its toll
 A  look , that could stop time
That strut, stings my tongue
That girls gotta be mine

ONE OF A KIND GIRL
A WHERE DO I GET ME ONE GIRL
ALWAYS WALKIN THAT WALK GIRL
A NEVA JUST TALKIN THAT TALK FAKE GIRL
That damn girl


Seductive Smiles
Tribulations , left imperfections 
Of scarred misrepresentations
Forever lasting 
earth shattering 
Impressions 
Can't ever shake her 
That girls a savage 
My beautiful savage
 
ONE OF A KIND GIRL
A WHERE DO I GET ME ONE GIRL
My savagely beautiful girl

I am consciousness
I am righteousness
I am soul...... 
& soul never dies.
