Mohammed Ali 
Dancing in the ring 
Flying like a butterfly 
Eying the title-world champ 
He took on anyone 
The belt was his to hold... 
Until defeat...he shakes a hand 
He fought Joe Frazier three times 
He was the greatest boxer...

The Spanish had armadas;
the Americas, flotillas.
The Amazon has capybara;
the Andes has chinchillas.
Kentucky has its sassafras;
Madagascar has vanilla.
Napoleon lost at Waterloo;
Frazier, in Manila.
Will a person tell the Mexicans
how to pronounce tortilla?

No off position
on the genius switch

No light
to then burn out

No cracks to form
on Leonardo’s bronze

No Frazier Ali
rout

The eye of the needle,
the camel threads

What always could
—still can

I'm going down silently 
Could it be 
I'm lost in a masquerade? 
Sounds of laughter, joy, and humor abound 
filling the air with harmony 
but its intagibility 
leaves me untouched 
much 
as thoughts, emotions, regret 
evict any remnants of glee, 
understandably,    
I fall deeper within me 
silently 
battling negativity 
like Frazier battled Ali 
I am enough and more 
than this feeling 
swarming me 
Prayer 
Self-Reflection
