Premium Member BONDED STIFF
BONDED STIFF Our love knows no swiftness; It's tied and bowed in stiffness:- Oh, our love is no played game; Rather, it's an everlasting bond attained:- May our love ever be as if a Royal Palace Ball: One hoped and wished for, by nobles & humbles all:- May this precious bond between you and me, Be granted a blessed bonding...

Premium Member WITH HOPE FAITH IN THE PROMISE
WITH HOPE AND FAITH IN THE PROMISE Like roaring rivers flowing under bordering bridges, Cascading over, under, and around blocking stones, So must we be as we continue to struggle Along the freedom road to promise equanimity:- As we encounter injustice’s walls of opposition, Let us approach them as remnants of Jericho: Their fate and destiny, victims of fortitude...

Premium Member IN THE EVERGREEN OF HOPE
IN THE EVERGREEN OF HOPE In the forest of despair, The evergreen of hope, Firmly rooted, Stands in the mist Of the saws Of injustice: Her tired body Having withstood The fires of debilitation And devastating mudslides Of eroding equity and justice:- Like her ancestors, Seek, knock, and ask, The evergreen of hope Cannot, and will not, Be rotted away By political fungi Of deceit, Nor racist bacteria Of eroding unjust laws:- Though in its shaded...

OF DIVINE GUIDANCE AND VICTORY Let’s be as Noah, Arking liberation waves To shores of justice: Let’s be in self-forgiveness; Divine wisdom guiding us:- It's not a Stockholm:- Rather, it’s America’s Oppressor Syndrome! Such unique shared infection: Victims equally psychosed:- Self-liberation, Begins with divine wisdom; Ask, and it’s given: When we make human mistakes, She will guide their corrections:- Always be aware, Liberation can’t be bought; It’s fought for and won:- Let’s get to...

Premium Member BLACK DEFORESTATION
BLACK DEFORESTATION Like innocent trees rooted and growing In a black social forest, we’re being chopped down by roving lumberjack officers of the law, as if we were arboreal-like diseased black growths:- Ironically, such deforestation, is a view of jurisprudence Along this forest trail, least traveled by the blind goddess Of justice, as she forgivingly hugs guilt with minor reprimand:- While it...

Wood as gold
Wood polished so bright to mimic gold, Its yellow coat glitters in the sun, May even fetch a high price when sold, And still be cherished in the long run. Like a flawless gold that flaunts great wealth, Its glamour, a pride to regal thrones, Where most kings recline in pride and health, Yet it's mere wood disguised as gemstones. Great craftsmanship like...

Days I Let Drift
I wore my youth like shoes too loose to feel, Each step unsure, yet never dared to run. My heart was clenched, a rusting, idle wheel, While days dissolved beneath the quiet sun. I was the empty desk in every room, A chair unclaimed in stories being told. A lantern hung but never lit the gloom, Too scared to burn, too comfortable...
