Superman's Disguise

Suppose for a moment
Superman had no nose
Three eyes
And one leg three inches too short
He’d surely need a better disguise…

Or would he?

Love I Suppose

Beautiful moments 
Are meant for dove
Beautiful comments 
Are meant for love. 

Someone walk away
For their interest
Someone back to sway
For their love feast.

I Suppose They Will All

i suppose they will all
be soon to depart
the danish girl
has removed her top
the germans will soon follow suit
the french girl
will arrive soon minus everything
there goes the male tourist
down the beach
time to stroll, exercise
amidst the breasts residing on the sand
isn't it funny
tables emptied of annoying badinage
i owe so many clear views
of Mexican beaches to Europe
but the sad aspect
is that amidst
all of this tropical beauty
the male tourist is unable
to rise above the preoccupation
of viewing breasts

myself, i prefer legs
they represent a short blip
a blink of the eye
to the pelicans coasting upon
the wave generated wind
the sky filled with marauding
magnificent frigates 
surfers hanging in for the wave
where they balance in nature
on a ride into shore
where some will banter me for a poem
i reply, your eyes (fill in color)
are birds who steal my thoughts
my breath, my heart
go away now
and it ain't look at that ass
it is a callipygous goddess
yes i wrote short love poems for them
and bettered their vocabulary

         San Blas   92

Suppose

Suppose !
You are a god
and there is a man 
who is so mad at you
Because you have not watered his crops
Have not submitted his kid's school fees
Have not fed him for two days
And when he hangs himself with a fan
You cut the rope
He spits on you
Slaps you crazily
Holds your collar
Keeps crying
Calls you and your parents names
Will you hold his neck or hug him?
But remember
You
Are 
A
God .

Rose and Suppose She Knows

a Lady Banks Rose
is what I really suppose
she actually knows

a question to ask
must I be wearing my mask
on beach in sun bask

there is latest news
that to read it do refuse
did declare a truce

would read page by page
which has been the latest rage
my mind will engage

Suppose

Suppose I came home after a long drive,
suppose I see a car in our overstuffed garage
- it's not mine.
Suppose when I enter our apartment
I discover myself in bed with you doing adulterous things.
What would I do?

Imagine if we went away.
then when we arrived home
- while we were unpacking,
all evidence of our trip evaporated,
Imagine we both remained jet-lagged for days
yet dared not speak of it.
What then?

Suppose I died last night
suppose the battery of my life failed
leaving only the shape of my ass
in the easy chair;
though to your sleepy eyes this morning
the indent of my shape
has created an illusion of me
and that's what you think you see?

As I sit here fretting about all this you hand me a cup of tea
- say over your shoulder:

“Write it out kid, write it out.”

Once Believing You Were Suppose To Be the Best of Us

Pages are written harshly in the ink of pain
Where are we running without any worldly gain
Voting for causes without any heart in mind
Giving up our soul with no human kind
With eyes on a prize without a return
No faith in each other we will all truly burn
Building bridges with a gate on either side
As we tuck away the fallen in the shadows to hide
Earning riches but always wanting more
But what did we win when no one was keeping score
Taking a leap when we should have learned to fly
Crossing a river while we watch others drown and die
Holding a sign but now knowing the meaning
Giving ourselves but never with any feeling
Grasping tightly but always letting go
Claiming the truth to hide a lie for
show
Listening to the people never hearing a word
Winning it all only to do the most absurd
Taking full joy in others painful past
Speaks volumes of yourself so vast
Shaking a hand but only for today
Knowing deals that were signed will be torn away
Seeing now who you are we can only cuss
Once believing you were suppose to be the best of us

Suppose Crows Go On Clothes

Suppose Crows Go On Clothes

we always suppose
we would see all of the crows
going on our clothes

Premium Member Suppose For a Moment

Suppose for a moment you were as rich as Croesus
Wise as Solomon, had the strength of Samson
Suppose you were as a Hollywood star handsome
Could you live in the world with the rest of us? 

Suppose for a moment you were as strong as Atlas
Courageous as Daniel, had the mind of an Einstein
With the most powerful kings and presidents dine
Could you live in the world with the rest of us? 

Which just goes to show that we are best as we are
Not so rich, not so wise, not so courageous, or smart
Not so handsome or powerful, simply have a good heart
I would rather be just as I am right now, by far.

Misperceived

Keeping a friendship requires constant care,
words and actions can be read all wrong.
It's easy to judge a friend's trifle unfair.
It's easy to think you no longer belong.

View your actions using another's eyes,
see if they will be seen as you suppose.
It's likely at times to receive a surprise
and find you render a thorn, not a rose.

Premium Member He Whom Suppose To Love Me-

My dreams have been cancelled 
My love was never answered 
All those letters that I wrote him
I wonder what's the matter with me
I just know he's got my letters 
Because I've written him two weeks ago
Hear me Lord 
Blessed Father my out crying out loud 
Hear me I'm begging 
For  to tell me what's wrong with him 
He who supposed to love me
He who supposed to care 
He who supposed to be there 
Waiting for the line my dreams have been canceled 
My love has not yet been answered 
All my tears
All my fears 
Not run away with me
 I wonder as I wonder 
If it's another girl and if so,
 is she the pretty girl 
 Cuz my man doesn't like any filthy girls 
Hear me Lord oh
 Heavenly Father 
Hear me Lord,  hear me out loud hear me out
Dragged all my hurts that I've been feeling inside my head
He who supposed to love 
He who supposed to care 
He who I'm supposed to be there 
Waiting for my love 
My dreams have been cancelled I
My love has cease never answered all those letters 
That I broke him I've just been written off ignore
By he whom SUPPOSE to love me

It Was Not Suppose To Be Like This

LIFE IS LIFE
THINGS HAPPENS AT A TIME UNEXPECTEDLY
IT WAS'NT SUPPOSE TO BE LIKE THIS
WELL, SINCE IT TURNED OUT THIS WAY
I HAVE THIS TO SAY
AS GOD GIVES ME EXTENDED GRACE
EACH DAY BY DAY
THE LORD ALWAYS WILL MAKE A WAY
I WILL KEEP THE FAITH
NOT COMPLAIN
TRUST IN THE LORD
THIS SITUATION WILL PASS
TROUBLES DO NOT ALWAYS LAST.

IT WAS NOT SUPPOSE TO BE LIKE THIS
IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE
I EXPECT THE BEST
NOTHING LESS.

Leaders Are Suppose To Inspire

leaders are suppose to inspired
why will I believe
in a system 
where the leaders 
never inspire my 
youthful age 

why will i uphold 
on the ideology of 
politicians 
who never inspire me

why will leaders be 
always old 
same old circle 
same old faces 
same old system
this never inspire Me

leaders are suppose
to be truthful
yet we know ours 
are far from truth 
so tell me what inspiration
do I need from them as a youth

when leaders are war lords 
then what are we meant 
to be 
how does this inspire
any useful youth in this world

after God 
always our second
look are on our leaders
our hope on them 
speaks a lot on our faces 
cos they are the God we see
sadly this days in Africa
as the days come and go 
I still wish more leader 
except from the few brave ones
will exist again cos 
leaders are suppose to  inspired

Eye Suppose


The powers that be
show us 
what they want us to see

But the whispering wizards 
behind the veil,
all have an emerald poker tell

The froggy princes that lead
always gon spit
a little grinning white in your pink eye

Swollen blinks won’t fetid kill, 
eye suppose
Just as long as you don’t forget
to cover up your nose

Every Pied Piper wink  wink 
got a nodding Oz vapor stink, 
Toto tear telling you a covetous alibi,
a Dorothy ruby shoes cry

They say they gon make you a ton of gold brick money,
but then silently they secret witchy gon steal it from you
Don’t shut your eyes ... don’t fall for the Dragon Ball Z ruse

The powers that be ,
which fire breath authoritatively,
repeat this phrase often   subliminally:

“Do what we say,
don’t try to free-think
Let not morals get in the way,
of a double cross blink”

I suppose greedy dogs
gotta close their eyes one day
Sleepily lie down in the worm dug hole,
pupil-colored glaucoma grey
