Sticks & Stones
Sticks & Stones
Words of deception
Void of self-reflection
Taught a false reality
Why how can this be
This is all I’ve known
Blind leading the blind
So I had to find out on my own
Like a chemical or a poison
False...
Focused on doing the time
Focused on doing the time, just not to lose my mind, something about the struggle, is so define, so the love is hard to find, imagine searching and clawing for every nickel and dime, raised in a concrete jungle, all while doing time, so many tears, but unable to cry. I tried time after time,...
The Journey of Life
“The Journey of Life”
It twists and turns
With mountains to climb
And fires that burn
Shaped at a young age
So vulnerable and pure
Life at full speed
Is how we must learn
The good times and bad

RAIN DROP
“RAIN DROP”
A lonely flower stood in a field, it had lost its will to survive. Not even the birds or the sun and the sky, could keep the flowers sole from dying. Until one day, on a cloud way up high, the tiny rain drop was passing by. The rain drop knew...

Killing…Strangers…
I think…No I “Know” you don’t
Know me.
How could you? I’m only the same
Difference you thought was familiar
While thinking comes from not knowing.

Your nighttime dazzles while your stars blind
In reserved fine-ness your highness…

To those who can look up and define ya…

Today…I burned my old flame
In passing…
I was on my way up and she
Was on her way…
In that, I could give two broken
Celibacy vows and honeymoons
Though I doubt a gift to give would

Sleeping silences and shattered calm
Sleeping silences and shattered calm
You came into my life, a light in the dark
Brilliantly blazing with enchanting charm
With a fiery inferno you melt my heart
Wherever you are is hearth and home
Where my weary soul is never alone
A twilight...
The Love of the Season Autumn
The Love of the Season Autumn
In the crisp gentle wind of fall
You can see the beautiful brown autumn leaves big and small
Jack-O-Lanterns, bats and candy corn delight the children
But the biggest treat of all lies within them
A big smile across their face...
"IF I COULD BE"
"IF I COULD BE"
If I could be anything
or anywhere
I'd be the wind
I could blow my kisses at you every day
so I could twirl my arms around you.
And I could run my fingers through your hair.
I would bring the rain for you...
Equal Mind…
Equal Mind…
I’m just a simple man…
A simple man in search of his equal
An equal mind that understands, one who’s virtuous
To find her, I strive for perfection
The honesty of a real man
So many years I’ve searched along...
OFTEN
OFTEN
Often,
I find myself wishing for a friendly speck of hope;
Someone who can let me know,
That my heart is alive and well like a stethoscope.
Often,
I raise my head high toward the sky,
Despite the weight of my fate, or the slop on my...

Magnum Opus
Magnum Opus
Some nights I just sleep…
I sleep dreamless at times but…
When I do dream?...
I dream of Ancient Egypt. I dream of
My beautiful Queens and Kings in chambers
Surrounded by animals of different sorts.
I can smell...

"Lost and Found"
“Lost and Found”
A touch of emotion, I can’t see.
Was it your breath?
I want to feel you breathe.
But I’m so far away- still thoughts of you come to me.
Setting me free.
I’m so far away and here I have to stay....
Hope
Hope
Hope was no longer in existence.
Hope, I so admittedly resisted.
Hope, I never expected to find.
Hope, I left so very far behind.
Hope, with all its godforsaken lies.
Hope, a part of me inside always cries.
Hope fills my being with her...

My Brown Eyes
My Brown Eyes
When, look into your depths, feel
I see your different layers…
Your essence more vivid then painted
pictures in a gallery of insignificant
paintings
or from your lips to the Gods with omni
potent ears in the heavens...
Remember
“Remember”
Would you still know my face? So close we had been.
Is there any trace of me left, in your head?
There wer times that I held you tight; my arms surrounding
you while you cried.
Would you still know my hands, if I held theme...
Helpless
“Helpless”
It happens, time and time again-you know theme where
they walk in.
They have that look that says – “they know they’ve made a life
mistake-getting sent out this place” – especially because
of their race...
Illumination

Ultra violet rays high light my high life,
Giving existence to fortitude in clarity….
Through the similarity to which I stand
In my position of light and likeness,
I find that my growth through experience
In life’s cycles...

Lotus Flower Bomb
Lotus flower of the freshest petals,
Blooming in the ambience of heavens
Hidden in esoteric meaning beyond
The most precious special….

The Song Bird Parable
The Song Bird Parable
Look inside of my cage
And you will find shade, only in reliance…
For I am a caged song bird
Whose face drowns in torrents, but yet I sing!
Perched on my swing,
I flap and flutter in temperance
My bandaged wings,...
The Letter of a Gypsy
The Letter of a Gypsy
Hey Wassup
So this is a confession, I may be a stranger, but not too far
from where you are… Just close enough to admire your beauty
from afar…Not on some weirdo stuff, but on some real stuff, you got me turnin in my...
Dying To Meet You
Dying To Meet You
Through the circumstances
Of predicaments we meet
Blindly over distance…
Though chains that bind
This caged bird physical
Gives his Olympian spirit
No resistance…
Fashioned from the weight
Of the world heavy enough to...
The distance is greater
The distance is greater
Than it once was
More than miles of highway
Miles of chain link
Or imposing gnarled and mangling
Weaponized steel
As if the sum of all
Those miles were not enough
There is the vastness
Of poison...
The strain and pain she has that look on her face
The strain and pain she has that look on her face-I reach to touch and smooth out her hair, but she doesn’t’ know I’m there.
That far away look she stares into space, what is she seeing-I reach to bring her back from that terrible place.
She looks at me, but I’m sure...
CONCRETE CURTAIN
CONCRETE CURTAIN
I was 15 when the concrete curtains fell,
And my space became a cell.
I yelled, I yelled for help,
but my cries, my cries though
were smothered by stone and steel.
Barbed wire twisted around my feet,
and the more...
