Self-Righteous Do-Gooders

Self-righteous do-gooders, so they believe, preaching the Word while minds they deceive,

Casting their ballots for racist, lying, cheats, shelving morality for them to be the lead,

Satisfied preying on the innocent and cleansing the impure, while claiming their prayers will sanctify and hold them secure,

Women stay passive, men will lead and fight, qualm their goody-two shoed outlook with their “good works” that make it right,

Believing progressive outlook ends the value of the American way, yet changing their medieval ideology is the last thing they would slay,

Promised a miraculous fix for the Red, White, and Blue nation, years later it is worse and blamed on the former rulers’ dictations,

Athletes are vilified for kneeling in peace, unjustified murders from countless police,

Threats to deploy numbers in thousands against oppressed citizens of this country, not one word of peace from a dictator and his tight gentry family,

The list goes on and the battles never end, if you see something is not right, not fair, or apart from the trend,

There is moral obligation, ethical righteousness, and justice for all, to stand up with courage and integrity, through action, make the right call.

Bronze Game Piece

I did not know that my color bled 
Into each word drenched in red 
Not from blood that runs in my veins 
From the white power death forever reigns 
 
My lips move with desperate pleas 
Only to soothe your team of trustees 
You create my story in your mind 
Comfort in ignorance that keeps you blind  

I scream louder in effort to be heard 
Wrapping my emotions in every single word 
Condemned for my angry cries 
Fingers pointed at my broken eyes  

I am stripped naked and exposed 
Opposition has me enclosed 
Freedoms door never opened for me 
On the other side you all sip on your cups of tea 

I knock harder until my knuckles bleed 
My vocal cords tear, my hope recedes 
In exhaustion I drop to my knees
Hearing you whisper “you pay the fees” 

My life was no longer in my control 
When my number appeared on your dice roll 
I lost long before your game began 
A bronze game piece that differed from your iron clan

I Can Smell the Sunshine

I sing along with raindrops, beating on the rooftops
I can smell the sunshine, long before the rain stops
Daydreams climb on rainbows, waltzing leaves in shadows
Fall has arrived softly, dusting amber meadows

I can smell the sunshine, long before the rain stops
Silver bolts of lining, over the distant hill tops
Fall has arrived softly, dusting amber meadows
Scents of plump October, hum tunes of nature’s prose

Silver bolts of lining, over the distant hill tops
Daydreams climb on rainbows, waltzing leaves in shadows
Fall has arrived softly, dusting amber meadows
I sing along with raindrops, beating on the rooftops

A Love Supreme

Entwined incense and jazz
Smooth lover beauty in sax
Molten golden notes dance
Caressing mind in trance
Deepening tones bloom
Body’s whispers soothe
Smoke clouds kiss petals
Glistening glass freckles
Essence affixed to honey skin
Vines twist and gently spin
Breaths whispers in misty air
Trickling on bosoms bare
Captivating aura in rhythm
Lips hums flow with precision
Evening lost within senses
Closing hazel glazed lenses
Curves lithely sway free
Sunset curls musical breeze
Heart and notes in perfect collision
Reed and vibrations in full fusion
Woodwinds grip swiveling hips
Immersed deep intoxicating bliss

Puppeteers of America

How supreme the images portray
Painted in only white canvases on display
No vibrant pigments of differences
Cultures or brush strokes of excellences
How dull the mind of multitudes
Who judge the immigrants of other latitudes
Following paths of leaders lacking adequacy
Yet blindly believing their unproficiency
High disdain for diversity
Deficient dignity while prevailing in emigrant adversity
No remorse or conviction disturbs their prosperity
While bitterness tastes good in conscious vulgarity
Puppeteers dangling strings from their parliament
Taping shut lips of puppets to prevent argument
Shame on the hatred and each thought that is pursued
Justified undoubtedly in the defiled ignorant residue
Too many lost in intolerant, illiberal ways
Separating people and causing chaotic disarray
Never knowing all tongues, tribes, colors and every single nation
Were uniquely created with love for the world as a celebration

Wonders of Plenty

A face can tell many stories, ancestor’s journeys, and glories,
Every feature stemmed from a root, from worldly gardens bearing fruit,
How could one be the best?

Traits portray unique magnitudes, of all descendant’s latitudes,
Colors and pigments of many, beautiful wonders of plenty,
Can one be like the rest?

Cultures weave colors of mankind, vivid threads of time left behind,
Diversity resounds splendor, within heart walls echoes render, 
That each and all are blest.

Vulture Or the Beast

Do we not all deserve the sanctity of a blessed and joyous life?
Instead we carry common wounds from the powerful racial knife-

Are we unworthy of intrinsic, sacred, unconditional love?
Hated for our pigmented flesh that the vultures pray on from above-

Do we truly have a voice, preaching freedom from a concealed cage?
Locked up by self-appointed Gods, driven by power, hatred, and rage-

How many more generations will suffer terror, torture, and tyranny?
Silenced and shackled beasts, while wearily fighting for well-deserved dignity-

Who is stronger in character the vulture or the beast?
Buzzing over lifeless carcasses, in search for the next feast-

Do they see the flood of tears, seeping over the bodies buried 6 feet deep?
Families broken and scarred for life, having to accept unjustified defeat-

Have we cracked the narcissistic ego, fighting for peace and demanding equality?
Boldness is the rebuttal, too proud and conceited to ever acquire humility-

When will the corruption, brutality and cover ups cease from heartless men?
Was this the result of hollow promises, in making America great again?

Without Any Cure

Reign on high in multitudes, comfortably placed on golden thrones,
Protected by unpigmented flesh, hatred resonated in their bones,
Waiting to persecute the impure.

Bloody battles with brotherhoods, side by side with unshakable faith,
United kinship with sisters too, sharing scars of punishment and scathe,
Remaining strong to always endure.

Begotten from the same roots, human species were God’s reflection,
Sin defiled the ignorant minds, judging skin with no tinge of conviction,
Racism spreads without any cure.

Allegiance

Declare your allegiance in this separated world

Led by deliberate ignorance chomping on gold

Lining up for your turn based on your make believe sin

Punishments justified and blamed on your skin

Safe at their table where everything is pale

One hand grasps a gavel, the other the holy grail

Your existence an annoyance, a flea or a gnat

Demanding you retreat and scat like a rat

Freedom is preached in Red White and Blue

Only if your flesh holds no tinge of color or hue

Light of Love

Hues of amber illuminate the open sky, painting an image of wonder in each cloud passing by, 
Scents of summer softly awaken sleepy eyes, while sparrows' songs bid the previous evening goodbye, 
Bliss captured in this paradise. 

Ice crystals of fog sway above the rivers flow, ever so gently blowing kisses to the rocks below, 
Lofty evergreen towers from years ago, pine needles dance a tranquil ballet in a mid-day show, 
Whom would such a place not suffice?  

Overwhelming awe in this captivating land, magnificent beauty molded by the creator's hand, 
Inhaling the glory of life’s gift so grand, releasing the calm mind and spirit as the lungs expand, 
Light of love always will arise.
