Our Better Angels
When we refer to people on earth who are angels,
we refer to folks who are generally sweet, loving and kind.
Anyone with any amount of decency
can be kind.
But what of those poor souls
whose lives are ravaged by war
or whose childhood has left them shattered
or paralyzed with fear?
What of children emotionally, physically or sexually abused
again and...

Carnival Nights
There was a chill in the air that night, as the taste of spun cotton candy and stale popcorn floated through the breeze. Lifeless clouds hung in the sky, moving swiftly past an ever-broken moon. Remnants of rain clung to weeping blades of grass, as a shattered heart cracked under a ribcage in disbelief. The...

Was it tuna?The world in black and blue,
no visible outline, the colors
blur. Headlights bright red,
and the people covered
in smoke as I stand in the back-
alley surrounded by old graffiti
stains and a half eaten tuna fish
sandwich. The alley cats
devour the carcass leaving
the bones and eyes behind.
I look at the eyes and I see
my...

WITH HOPE FAITH IN THE PROMISEWITH HOPE AND FAITH IN THE PROMISE
Like roaring rivers flowing under bordering bridges,
Cascading over, under, and around blocking stones,
So must we be as we continue to struggle
Along the freedom road to promise equanimity:-
As we encounter injustice’s walls of opposition,
Let us approach them as remnants of Jericho:
Their fate and destiny, victims of fortitude...

JOURNEYING WITH WISDOMJOURNEYING WITH WISDOM
Like the sun and its being,
Wisdom knows no dimness;
Her light is eternal, and where she is,
There can never be ignorance of darkness:-
For like the sun, she shines forever bright
In the inner sanctum of the ego of mind:
Inevitable truths, flowing like an enlightening river
From the valley of the womb of God’s infallibility,
Forever birthing the...

STRENGTHENEDSTRENGTHENED
Today’s time tests the spirit, soul,
Mind, and the heart that beats
With the faith that fuels them;_
And like the body’s muscles,
They all grow firmer
With trial testing times:-
God forever renews our strength,
Remaining that ever present help
Needed in troubled testing times:
Never allowing his chosen ones,
To suffer and sojourn in vain:-

IN THE EVERGREEN OF HOPEIN THE EVERGREEN OF HOPE
In the forest of despair,
The evergreen of hope,
Firmly rooted,
Stands in the mist
Of the saws
Of injustice:
Her tired body
Having withstood
The fires of debilitation
And devastating mudslides
Of eroding equity and justice:-
Like her ancestors,
Seek, knock, and ask,
The evergreen of hope
Cannot, and will not,
Be rotted away
By political fungi
Of deceit,
Nor racist bacteria
Of eroding unjust laws:-
Though in its shaded...

AN UNMOCKED ALLEGORICAL FLASHBACK
AN UNMOCKED ALLEGORICAL FLASHBACK
When we were young and growing up,
Granny said that all things have a seed,
And that every seed produces its own
Things to be reaped: good or bad:-
At the time, it was hers and the bible study
Lesson to be taught and remembered; however,
At that time, I didn’t get the full allegorical meaning
Of what she...
