Epithalamion for the Ark Lovers

There was once a dashing lad 
from the mid-coast of Maine

who courted a comely duchess
from the Westerly. Now, Maine is

two lands off from the Westerly 
which is a province under 

its own sovereign rule, on an Island 
named Rhode, but they rescued

what desperately needed to be loved 
in the other’s marrow, each 

of their own

I Promise

I promise I'll love you 
Till the end of my life 
Not just like anybody 
But like my wife 

I promise I'll be there 
Always by your side 
Holding your hand in mine 
Forever in my heart you reside

I promise I'll accept you 
The way you are 
No matter your flaws
Just be as you are

History doesn't matter if its aesthetic

Hot summers dry up the land 
The dirt crumbles under the heaviness of disrespect
Fresh flowers adorn the land 
Covering the uneven burial grounds 
Overshadowed by privilege 

What better way to claim superiority 
By soiling the plantation they stand on
Ignorance crowds the air 
Cast aside by vows of love 
Tainting history with a wedding
The stories of

My Friend's Wedding

Saturday is native to weddings and ceremonies
Of anxieties – patterned in coarse sputum of rain.
My friend Bonsy and his wife filled the calendar
With the uselessness of time, levelled against waste
As indicated by the clocks of dew-coated pavements
Of our yawning city.
Next to this was the arrangement of formalities which
Came with the attainment of stress. They haggled
Between

The Lifting Of The Veil

The lifting of the veil
a revealing of all that was concealed
some see beauty, others bewail
regardless of feelings all will yield
the separation has begun
from the goats and sheep
everyone get ready for the arrival of the Son
some will shout for joy, others will weep
a metamorphous is taking place
the Bride is making herself ready
we are about to gaze

Wedding Day

Run away to find home
fingers tracing city streets
Concrete above, the Z train beneath my feet
found your heartbeat
between the city and the sea
where the boardwalk meets concrete streets
and a smile always greets
the city that never sleeps
following the streetlights to neon brights
Waiting at the bridge for you tonight.

The Honeymoon

We married not beneath a sky,
But in the belly of the Earth —
The Mponeng mine, where shadows cry,
And gold remembers sorrow’s birth.

No roses bloomed, no organs played,
Just echoes where the diamonds wept,
And in that hollow heart, we laid
A vow so sacred, silence kept.

Her name was Lucy — fierce and kind,
A flame that lit my wounded

Rosemary's Wedding

This Sunday,
Before noon,
In my community church,
Wedding bells ring?

Rosemary,
Daughter of our land,
Weds!

Grand invitations
With ancestral R.S.V.P.
To be spoken with flutes,
Dressed in yellow palm fronds.
The invitation cards spread like
Wide fire in the harmattan,
Fluttering with the strength of
Flirting confetti
Between the navel of the earth
And the heart of the village square.

The living and the dancing —
Kinsmen assembled —
Speaking alien tongues.
Some

They flowed from my feelings
a specail day
that specail way to show someone
you really love them
Our specail Day
The beganning from the conclusion
the redefining of the uniqueness of
two people coming together
finding words
calulating rehersting
doing all without raveling the two who
probaly couldn't care if they
are caausing or creating a specticail
they are not
they a righted to a situation
where they seek

Pero NO por su esposo El Guanaco Poblano
El Cuento es un bocadillo

LOVE BLESSING

Petit Fours Etiquette- The Soupbone Crooners

When asked what there names were
one responded quickly and spoke with a very heavy voice
saying his stage name was "Rink rasher"
and his partners was " Fresh Meat"
he shook my hand and began a conversation:
while his partner stood silent with a frown on his face.
I was try to bring him into the conversation asking questions often

Murder in the Red Barn

A couple soon to be said newly wed,
yet swiftly snuck behind the family’s back
to swear the vow inside th’old shack,
quick forgot’n, buried a secret dread; 

A reek awaftin’ out a country shed
left long and fast behind by Spring-heeled Jack,
the stench o’ rot stinkin’ from a sack
discovers a soiled corpse ‘n’a mangled head;

Well…, they ‘was a
