Short Not For Nothing But Poems

There is

Not even nothing

And not even a thing..

Yet this total denial

Is the wholeness

Appearing as a full

Playlist of movies......

Johnny eats pasta under soft light
He was a prize fighter with a pregnant wife
Always buys his hair tonic from the same guy
His mudda was his hero
His fadda beat him wise...

poetry soup 
gobbley goop
its said that no man
can stand alone
but here I'm standing
with my back to you
and I fall back
into the arms of my fans
and thank you
for allowing me to feel
that its not for nothing
that my poetry is real...

At breakfast my wife asked me
What I was doing today
“Nothing” I replied to her
“But you did nothing yesterday”
She informed me
“And now you’re doing it again today”
I replied “I’m not doing nothing, again
I didn’t finish doing it yesterday”...

Let me breathe fresh air
Let me fly like a bird
Let me flow like a river
Let me move like a wave
Let me bloom like a flower
Let me glow like a firefly
Freedom is what I want
Release Me..
If Slavery is not wrong nothing is wrong.

when you say am sorry
it doesn't mean 
you are weak 
it shows you are 
human

when you say am sorry
it does not cost  nothing
but prevent problems
and attract peace

when you say am sorry
it heal an angry heart
it cool a hot temper
it show a strong value
of peace

when you say am sorry 
it goes a long way 

when you say am sorry
mean it and show it real...

The cuts on my arm mean nothing 
My screams at night bring pain
The tears on my cheeks will last for ever 
But your soon to go away
Like every one else that tried to help me
Like every one else who cared 
All they do is cry 
Those stupid pitiful tears  
Dont feel bad for me 
Dont cry for me
Dont pray for me 
Dont laugh 
Because your not doing nothing
But bringing back the past...

HAT POWER

My Hat is a rush a power to my head
wear a hat every day or as often as you are lead
hat love and hat passion I must spread
ladies without your hat, your entire look
is in shreds.  

Please take note, this is not a quote
if it's not saying something,
 it's doing nothing
if it's not doing anything
It's not worth nothing
my hat is a rush of power to my head.
Hat Power Yaaaasss!!!!!...

Let say the truth to God
Right there in the chest 
Of every human 
Lies the heart

Right there in every heart
Lies the soul 
Yes right in every heart 
Lies the soul 

Mine do speaks to me
Hope yours does as well

I guess the soul 
Is there not for nothing

I understand is there to guide 

So listen yes listen

We have to live
Yet not without our soul
Or else
Let say the truth to God...

little Miss nothing 
God knows your something created 
He you beautiful

made you're his daughter and you're 
perfect in every way you don't need all men's eyes on you you're perfect Within

as you're His loving 
daughter precious in His sight
not missing nothing

Self-Inquiry..
"Not this..Not this"
That old-timey formula to find 
One's true self..then updated:
Not nothing..not everything
A viral communique..then
This news flash:
Not-even-nothing..not-even-everything..
All of these "Nots" left the self
Bruised but resilient..still standing.. 
Yet..
This obscure notice could always be
Found buried in the Obituaries:
The self inquires..the self is inquiry
Freedom is already as inquiry dies..
Apparently......

We need help out here!
We’re now gripped with fear!
At all costs: something,
Not ‘fruitless Nothing’
By all means do so:
Right here a go-slow! 
Shaking hands to rule:
Everyone ‘ A fool’
Some in chairs Plain Dunce,
Hence I crave response;
Fatherland Nothing,
Where goes anything.

Men dread a failed growth
‘Blood of Jesus quoth…

We need help out here.
I mean ‘here’ not there;
Lecher times his leer
For another’s deer…

Unsafe life too dear,
Its killers too near!...
