Thomas Nate Turner only knew gloom
For "TNT" there was not much room
If one mistake
He was to make
Then he just might fall down and go BOOM!...

There once was a lad named Nate
Who in the spelling bee did participate
But the audience did blush
As poor Nate got flush
After failing to spell constipate...

A Million Things
By Nate Spears

A million things on our mind
Then senseless arrives
Worthless deprives
Drama provides; but still we find a way
To remain focused and accomplish....

There once was a hermit crab named Nate
Who enjoyed the solitude of his hate
   Meeting a lovely lady
   A sexy Texan, name P.D.
Finding true hate, trying to online date

STILL ALIVE
Screaming, my contorted face
Buried in this hard ground
By a naughty Nate, wickedly unsound
Natural beauty in my cold palace
I'M COMING BACK FOR MY REVENGE

     Midnight...
           snugged tight,

     count sheep...
           asleep.

     Awake
           with shake!
     
     My fear
           soon clear...

     pup Nate
           fled crate!

There once was a man named Nate
                    Not usually known for being late
                  But he drank too much egg nog
                              Ended up in a fog
                  And never showed up for his date

The Surface Of My Pages
By Nate Spears


On the surface of my pages
I give you me
Through poetry
In my voice I speak:

My brightest days
My darkest nights
My loving moments
My rightful fights

I give you my whole
I give you my best
I give you my voice
Through struggles I confess
Me....

Heavens Rain
By Nate Spears
Published 2013 in “Death OF A Rose” By Nate Spears

Will the heavens rain
Wash away my sores
My sorrows
My no mores
 
Will the heavens rain
Grant me a smile
I’ll die to see a golden rainbow 
Piercing the clouds
 
It wasn’t my call
So why does it has to be my destruction?
Will the heavens rain 
Shower me an answer
Or will I
Die from thirst?...

A Poem For Kristen and Nate

The boys they all loved her
A real Southern Peach.
They wined her and dined her
But she was out of their reach

Ambitious and pretty
She reached for the stars.
But deep in her psyche
She carried some scars.

Life's full of surprises 
It's  part of the plan.
Her heart was won over,
By a red-headed man.

Who Are We
By Nate Spears


Who are we to cast stones?
As if we're perfect
No one’s perfect
But we all are worth it

Everyone's been wrong
At some point of life
Am I right?
So stop condemning
And start rebuilding

This is the vulture like mentality of the world
Casting stones at others 
As if we’ve never been wrong 
Lord behold somebody casts a stone at you
Then all hell will break loose!...

a bite like hot charcoal
              a nate full
              of stolen baby teeth

that scythes off dried skin
              ripped off like old wallpaper
              the tearing of small birds

hidden under an early barn
              mice shake like clocks
              and cry in cold straw

You tap dancer, 
              as cruel as a broken tooth
              as evil as a round eye...

M-itigate the cruel contagion
O-f the invisible illness; 
N-ullify the dreaded danger, 
A-nd the spreading sickness.

O-bliterate the cruel contagion, 
L-et lethal link finally fade; 
I-mplement the proper hygiene, 
V-accine and medical
A-id.

N-egate the rabid risk, 
A-bate the contamination; 
T-otally erase the virus, 
E-liminate the cruel contagion.

Sodium and Chlorine Go On a Date

By Elton Camp

Nate and Clio were electrically okay
Protons equaled electrons that way

But there was a good reason why
When they went out, sparks did fly

Nate gave one of his electrons away
And so became positive on that day

Clio added his electron to her cloud
“Now to be negative I am allowed”

Dissolved in fluids the two are delights
For living things must have electrolytes...

I do not understand just how it could be wrong,
for Americans to have Health Care in order to be strong?

To assure each one of us "You'll receive a decent wage"
work hard, save money eradicate inner rage

We've come so far, ignoring the threats of war
but admit, we're divided, more than ever before

I know that we will "get there" it's in the hand of fate 
The only thing that scares me are the eyes on the face of Nate...

It was a clear dark night
When your voice was the only in sight,
The many years of childhood,
The "Hip-Hop Hooker,"
was the choice of many tunes,
So know, that in our genre,
We may never forget
How the regulations of the game was maneuvered,
By just 16 bars,
or how we jammed and sang,
Along in our car,
To the many soulful grooves,
This one, Nate Dogg is for you;
REGULATORRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

I once dated a suave pirate named Nate
He said his dates never had a complaint
Asked me if he could
Show his treasured goods
But seeing more than his gold made me faint

Freddie junior was thrilled to graduate
Family on their way to congratulate
Jubilation easy to demonstrate
His sister brought herself a crazy date
Whose biggest talent was to flatuate
A detriment to fully celebrate
So they got rid of her boyfriend named Nate
Started the big feast with a whole new slate
Freddie’s relatives set to masticate
Eating a delicacy on every plate
Freddie Junior met his future mate
Beautiful sister of gassy Nate...

“F Bomb”
By Nate Spears

I got the heart of a man name Malcolm
The visions of Martin Luther
The tongue of Emmett Till
The brains of Medgar Evers

Can I get a window seat
Away from defeat
Can I get park for the kids to play
Next to the spot
Where Rosa refused her seat

Langston in my pen
Proud, young, and free
Handsome and intelligent
The government targets me
First,
In a second
My history is a blessing
The court system in racist
Society shows the traces....

Obliteration.
Relativity Breaking.
Imagination.

Regeneration
Awakening Creation.
Pure Stimulation.

Metamorphosis
Conceptualizing life
Recognizing form. 

Anatomical.
Perfecting Automation
Assembling Mind Storms.
