Black as the night My sable soul sings Songs praising Nubian Ancestors dancing To treed thoughts Rooted in the womb Of my pregnant Poetic mind… Such is the essence Of poetic labors of love And the orgasmic Nile flow Of impregnating Words of wisdom Watering inspiration And thigh-warming Navel awareness Rebirthing chosen Mission purpose… Indeed my beloved Ancestors: To not know where We go from here Is bad And not to engage In working out Where And how Is...

Premium Member I don't remember what I did, it's true
I don't remember what I did, it's true, the day before I fell in love with you. I guess I might've been attending Shakespeare class lamenting with Professor Pendergrass the fate of Juliet Capulet and Romeo Montague....

I'm beside myself In a haze that some call 'rose tinted' In a phase that others call 'seeing red' In the photographers dark room, just looking over everything, nothing yet developed fully Too much is spoiling as light floods in I wanted to have it all figured out I wanted to have given it all time Of course we're smiling and...

Your whisper dragged me in and there withstood Wobbly words wrapped in weal walnut-white wood I climbed to be proud, not hide in a hood. Bond with breezy star began with...

You surely know I long for sweet romance I melt completely by your teasing glance Each night I pray you give this love a chance, for you have cast a spell; I’m in a trance! The scent you wear distracts me to the core Your slightest touch enthralls, and I want more That hungry look you give me, I adore Though...

I delight in your twaddle inside me, young girl. Restore the golden-pink gleam with a swirl. Memories of who've died or are close to dying. Delve deep, according to inner-child supplying. Taking apart each self that has been dark-dyed Then, closely dig up the shimmering past's side. Until we draw a kinder rainbow hue, we must wait. Vacant space below crops and...

Anemoia
Whether it be pernicious hailstorms, Or be shiveringly cold snow. It shall be in all forms, And it comes by and goes in a blow. Surprisingly it can be an exuberant reminiscence Perhaps a past full of dolorous tear. One can only see it in essence, For it is neither far nor near. Oh, The wonders it brings! Deftly leaves on in disarray. When it...

Soulful Reminiscence
Memories of him linger on, In my heart, they'll never be gone. His smile, his touch, his gentle embrace, Forever etched in my mind, a sacred space. Though we've gone our separate ways, My love for him never decays. I'll hold onto the moments we shared, And cherish them, for they were rare. He may be gone, but he'll never fade, His memory forever...

He got lost in the maze of his own past He stands after an indescribable adventure Massive man, a storyteller, with tales to share His tone is realistic, and his words scatter Fear His memories ring real to youthful ears It's a peaceful fresh day outside On a majestic high hill where angels dwell The grief that was once false is now...

I remember when I was verbally bullied, I would not tell my parents or teacher of what was happening. I would only take it all in solitary stride, I remember always feeling both sad and happy in being alone. I think about it now, I realize the reasons why I was bullied, why I was resentful of those who done so...

How dim memories can slip away. The decades of life highlighted in our thoughts Sifting through the large colander Of daily happenstance. Leaving very few past images that can bring us gentle peace. Only special celebrations can we access. Moments of a wedding day The first child's birth So many firsts are sealed away and hopefully stored Safely within our minds. A child's birth, A newborn's first...
