Haiku 1- There Is Still a Question

Stop wait you are great
But do you participate
In love or hates fate

Freestyle Love

If we made love on the 4th how would the 5th feel
If i was holding you now how would the grip feel
Lips seal cause you're speechless
Legs wide as I reach this special section
Juices flowing got your Pu see flexing
I'm making myself at home with strokes of perfection
Our eyes connect wit stares of reflection
Passion a little sweat moans say no regret
Digging nails in my skin & didn't climax yet
Laying together in the dark make our bodies silhouette
In this moment we have everything
Forgetting what we'll never get
Love ends our everyday 
Just like the sunset

Around Me

Times are hard
Money is in a vice grip
Numbers scare people & use to stretch a tight lip
Dice get roll
Lose your life when the card flip
People bearing arms
Death sentence in palms grip
Mom's carry weight 2 babies on her small hips
There's no whips 
But children still need whippings
And less court support 
Because courts be tripping
Families apart
That's what they be ripping
Can't wait til the judges in ah newspaper clipping
If I'm going out
I gotta factor the tip in
Life is the party
Hope everybody get in
Always be you
Everybody can't fit in 
It's a whole lot of space
That none of us will get in
Students & parents
Everybody need to sit-in
This started in my mind & got finish wit ah ink pen
Get outside the box & the real might sink in

Live some-more babies 
Tell me what you think then
What's deadlier the gun or the words of man

Somebody Hear Me

Blinded by experience & I mean lack of

Trapped in a neighbor-hood that feels like a cage

Isolated in my small room releasing tears & rage

Imagine life on the wrong side of a 9 or 12 gauge

Imagine momma getting money in shameful ways

Imagine me doing nothing wrong & getting beat for days

Imagine in the cabinets just sugar & Lay's

Imagine me only 10 wit more stress then grown men

Me born in this world thrown into sin

Imagine me wondering why my life is so different 

Other kids smile more why is my life so different

Clothes I don't have many & friends I have none

When Dad go to work all he takes is a gun

See Dad's not a solider & moms not a saint

I've seen good people so I know that they ain't

There just mom & dad 

I'm young & sad

Praying I get all the love I deserve and never had

I Feel - My Future

No masquerade can hide the emotion

Crumbs of devil's pie have made it difficult to approach them

Juggling my conscious

Possibly blinding my sight

Trying not to be wrong & so hard to be right

Deep thoughts make it more complex

Walking in that direction I don't know what's next

No in or foresight

Just the desire to do more right

And have someone to warm all my life on a cold night

2-2-16

Purpose has to surface without it we could hurt this Thing we've got We're just not suppose to aim with no target Plan to end when we start it never dearly departed Tears of the broken hearted don't fall retarded Love I never bought it I just give & receive Pains of the emotion affect what I believe Lies of my lovers influence how I perceive Tongues of the tempting, tip toeing, females in the breeze Please Females gone with the wind Especially the knockouts one to the chin The mind of a man who loves beginning to end

Just Love

We are parallel like the lines, that make equal
Young mimics of love pray to be our sequel
Our love is not but we are ordinary people
We keep love on top like the cross on a steeple
Just love people

Observation 3 Lost Souls

They front for public perception
Campaign like it's an election
Make people sick figuratively, like an infection
Just for attention
Monetize in ah dimension
Where money's good suspension
Evil gets the most attention & good needs ah petition
Dealing with the agenda & nobody listen
People full of **** but everyone pissing
Constipated not obligated
To no-one but themselves
Crab in the barrel pulling down everyone but yourself

Observations

It's like my life's on probation
Trapped in ah broken nation
Ghetto's of damnation
Got home feeling like incarceration
Dreams of liberation
Leave every black man, woman, and 
child mind full of contemplation
Opposing my opposition with a 
tattooed disposition 
It's not to many good times in the 
position
I may have your attention 
Listen Listen Listen
Confession booths are the partition
That hide the evil in religion
Lost souls can't see the doom in 
man's division
Asking for restitution
Stop
Spark a revolution
That's the solution

Observations 4 Childhood Retrospect

I always had questions
Not many people had answers
I was never moved by childish banter
Yeah I'm the kid that debunked Santa
Rudolph, Dancer and their magical antlers
I've seen the corruption in churches
& weakness in blind faith
I'm taking religion to court
I know I got a case
I lied to the minister, after being dipped in the water
And just wanted to go to church to see various members daughters
I knew right from wrong before I knew Jesus
Then they say that's what he's trying to teach us
Well I was doing just fine, plus made straight A's
Cool as the Fonz in my happy days
But life is more like a re-run & that's not what's happening
