The lyrebird v.s. the African Grey Parrots The shrinking Thymus Centerstage they took time to perform. She had spoke to other before te eveing. She wished to dance, dine and dance.Plie', she aid even though I lack the skills of beautiful artistry. They all laughed. The gentlemen took seats asking for scotch before they were seated in...

Betrayal Like a phoenix Except I’m rising from the water Taking flame when I touch air Redemption Like a hero Except I’m no better Than the enemy now Fire In my eyes Except The flames of my hatred Will last for eternity Loathing Can change you Except I don’t feel changed I feel free Betrayal Can only get you so far Redemption Will only give you so much Fire Can only...

Wakey, wakey! The buzz from my advanced THRITY THREE TEN seem to yell Opened windows slapped aging mango leaves on my face Monday already? Morning already? Granny’s creaking chair again! Savoring with folks of mine the bland toast with juicy old gossip, mom’s warm smile Welcomed into my everyday worn out NIKE with pain Unending miles, but starts with a mile. The...

The sun is burning Population growing Poverty pulsing Rich repeating Man-beating One meeting Fleeting Ding. Phone alerts ringing The chorus is singing Fear is clawing Up our throats, feasting Least of all, dying The moon is rising While the Earth is spinning Heads are pounding Bosses are hounding No more housing Delousing Ping. The microwave meal is ready for eating Time for feeding Has your skin been shedding? How’s the fat shredding? Oh you’re still driving? No that’s not...

So creeped out by my own ideas, So I am so bad as I seemed, because So and so said so, and So and so sees it, and I'm So scared to be what I'm scared of, what So and so is said to be, what is So so bad, so bad as it seems, she's So creeped out said so and...

The kind ones, the mean ones, the big ones, the lean ones- Some try, some don't, and some cry, but some don't. Actions and reactions, what are they but events, cycling o'er and o'er? We laugh, we cry, we live, we die; cycling o'er and o'er. The poor ones, the rich ones, the happy ones, the sad ones, "Why does money even matter?" Cycling o'er and o'er. History repeats,...

Violence, a physical behavior intended to hurt someone. Violence, the strike from his hand to her face. Violence, the screamed threats as she cries. I try not to panic. Violence, was it intentional or did he just lash out? Violence, is his word true beyond a doubt? Violence, he tells us that he’s sorry. I try to believe it. Violence, the unlawful act...

Sometimes I only feel sad Sometimes I can just cry Sometimes I lose all hope Sometimes I am all alone And sometimes I smile wide Life certainly has its downs Sometimes I drown above water But there’s also a future There’s friends to be made ...

I could write five million words about you And all of them would be true But none of it would be enough Not really. I could write five million poems about you Sonnets, limericks, haikus But none of it would be enough Not really. I could draw five million pictures about you And with every single kind of color, too But none of it would...

In the quiet of the night When the sun decides to save its light for someone worthy When the stars twinkle in its wake When the moon chases after her lover I used to pray But not with the whispered devotion of a Sister No my prayers stirred something ugly in me Something that festered slowly And ripped Something raw and heavy from...

Caverns of patterns, Awaiting your return, A cliff at every turn, For you to fall and burn, Slipping into your pattern. It repeats until you discern, There's a reason for concern, Earning a new lesson, Life is in constant progression. Filling the cavern again, With every little win, Catching the pattern in motion, Slowly filling through devotion, Allowing a new path to open. One that you have chosen, A choice...

(A lone voice whispers) Loss covers many different paradigms. From relationships, family, and friends, but one pivotal thought sometimes gets forgotten in grief. When someone suddenly has died. The love you both once shared, will live forever. Just hidden in a Repetition of Time, as you suddenly remember this 17 syllable drop of bliss. In five, seven, five. As those...

Discipline is doing what you hate like you love it Asking for more when you are past the point of quit The dying of an old spirit to let a new one in Forcing progression with a bittersweet grin Just when it seems completely futile When all you can feel seems abysmal That is autophagy taking over Out will come thyself leaner...
