It was so silent, thist most extraordiary Spring night!
I closed my sleepy eyes, on my outdoor, jade recliner.
Warm as the embrace of a beloved,summer’s, cuddly.night.
I was awakened by my Brazilian friend, with a gentle reminder.

“Life is no place for sleeping or weepng,you must live for today.!”
I so desired, to tell him, how very wrong his

Samba Known

I've come to you a pretty girl
I've come to you just right
I'm longing for your arms abhor
I'm offered you tonight.

I call you for the favored vail
Your more where I can't feel
And beg you for the ones who live
that others form your keel

And make you come to see me bleed
where others force their beil
And take you

Premium MemberSamba Noir

Nether and far, darkness among stars
A painless realm daunting hidden charm
Neutrons and Adams, the beginning
Above the heavens, gods even sinning

Crimes of the universe
Negatives and positives
Black holes letting the evil escape
Crippling this world with 

Left over hate

Tears overwhelm	
		And saturate


Ubiquitous whims
	In rhythm sings
		At fates door	
			No more

Samba Samba

The roaring gun that knew no owners
The ghost incarnated in a metal 
groaning in the Pearl of Africa
Terminating the blood f cattle keepers
Hurtling the flesh of land tillers 
Tormenting landless hunters
Scaring away lions of Mburo
And leaving Mbarara homeless 

Samba Samba
The gun of a dictator
The gun that killed Ugandans
The gun that liberated Ugandans
The gun that we

Sounding Samba

Hunger accelerated my rest in the showering night
Then i dreamt, in my dream i dream i heard a call
In a cool voice telling me to go
Go because you are a king

The dawn chorus woke me up  into another beautiful morning glow
My head is swinging pendulously and my legs are willing to go

So i went,

A Sexy Samba

Sweat trickles down my bare back.
It tickles as it wetly trails
To the base of my spine.
My hips sway, 
My shoulders dip and roll
In rythmic undulations
In time with the vibrations
That have suddenly become, 
My only awareness.
A delighted smile spreads
Across my crimson lips
I open my eyes to look at you.
You are looking at me, 
I know what's on your mind.
Mmmm....mine

Samba Rhythms

Samba Rhythms resonating through the jasmine hedges,
while lads and lasses sip fruity drinks with colorful umbrellas
in them,
The natives hustle to the samba rhythms, 
exchanging partners methodically,
The synchronicity is enchanting,
A night of frivolity and gaiety,
in a forgotten war torn country......

Coyly Samba

eyeball to eyeball, deep, labored breathing,     
sidestepping, pulling, twirling, pushing;            
bodies swaying to the fast Latin beat,                  
sultry flame of  uncontrollable heat;
