My Pursuit

Mmm…Mmm…MMM….DAMN she is fine!! Once again she crosses my path and my mind andMy heart swells up with the feelings thatOnly I and God knowSo as I see her walk on by IWallow away in the distance andThoughts begin to cross my mind ofHow it might be if we were togetherI think of drifting away with her alone with, Only us and the elements as our audienceI think of holding her petite bodyAnd as I smell...

The Intentional Absence of the Patriarch

Fathers- so many here, but so many missingAs I question the existence of this life and where it is taking me,I think about my father, and how he wasn't here faithfully.I won't use hate...as a matter of fact...yea, I hate that niggaBut I figure that I'm bigger than that soI'll oppose the negative synergies as my feelings saturate like paint thinner.You left me when I was 3, and never seen my potentialI...

I've Got to be Me

I suffer too much for just being me,I have an infatuation with being realSo, that is why I pay such an awful fee.Being frank and honest may neverpromote me ahead,But I possess great peace of mind whenresting upon my bed.I dislike throwing rocks and hiding in myhandsOr faking a smile to meet the approvalof man.Phony folks are so numerous and realpeople are so rareAnd whenever you act yourself, you...

A Heart Never Forgets

A memory that is deeply burned within, scorchedLeaving a permanent mark from a heartfelt second long agoA moment...one single moment, that only a heart can rememberA fleeting thought, gone astray, but the feeling will forever loom inside youA man and a woman...so far apart, so long the daysThat it took their hearts to remind them..How fortunate they are, that a heart can return a fleeting thoughtOne...

The Frightening Truth

Is it a frightening truthTo utter I may have established attraction for you..To declare I desire you..To pronounce that;I might mean everything for youthe way you do for me?Is it a frightening truthTo help me truly apprehend;Whether I have affected youThe way you have affected me?Whether I am the right one for youThe way you are for me?And whether the dissimilarities and disparitiesI feel toward life...

Try and Try Again

I have always seen life for what it really is.Ever since I was a child growing up, hard times are all that I know.But I can honestly say that my trials and tribulations made the person who I am today.I had to sit back and watch my mother work from sunset to sundown.I had to sit back and watch my mother work herself to the bone.Cooking, cleaning, and taking care of us.Nothing ever came easy for her.She...

Control

Every man desires to control To control events –to satisfy his yearnings, To control disaster from free patrol, To control his neighbor to satisfy his earning, Even when his neighbor won’t enroll. Be the man good or evil, His countenance drops when his desire trails, His thoughts breed threats of the devil, His heart travails, Frustration strikes the anvil. His whims and caprices flare like hell,...

Sometimes

So I think about her...and think about herCome to find out that,She is a beautiful soul thatIsn't appreciated by her man at homeSo I decide to write to her to provide an prologue to the novel of ourrelationshipBut...Sometimes I feel as if,I cannot thoroughly describe my thoughts as I scribe on this palletAs if her looks and personality doesn't already speak volumes.Her looks and her attitude create...

The Sexual Encounter

…She knows that she is looking good And as she walks past me I slowly approach her. Removing her clothes with my eyes and planning my next move As if it were already prearranged. Because I don't think that she is ready for the calisthenic activity in which we are about to engage. So...we meet in the center like two warriors ready for battleAnd I whisper in your ear, Sweet things that make you weak,...

Sex in multiple haikus

Moist with the deep thought, wet with the touch, As strangers become lovers With an intense gazeYou smell as sweet as spring Flower blooms tonight lets start with a kissthen let it build into moreAs our bodies interlock a dreamsweaty, breathing hard…eyes wide s...

Tribulations

He screamed at her…While the look in her eyes was something of complete fear andShe backed away from his path slowly while his rage ensuedAll the while he was getting mad and,Flipping over the couch, because she was late preparing his food.All that passes in her mind was,Her girlfriends constantly telling her to watch his temper butShe was so deep in love; she thought she would get past all of that...

ME.....in only but so many words.

I am ...A manWith a heavy heart, bathed in obscuritySomewhere in an empty room ...With eyes not quite of autumn's gold, and yetNeither all of winters grey;I wonder ...If love is a fable made for childrenA enchantment of sweet dreams in their innocenceA honey-coating to help their throatsChoke down the bitter drought ...I hear ...A voice that whispers warnings, half-spoken,Bodiless as hope, until I...

Destiny and Chaos Collide

There is constantly an option to makeWhen two paths amalgamate and life takes a breakFor a split second, all possessions are oneAs destiny and chaos collide once moreWhen two paths amalgamate and life takes a breakNo one will presage to you that it is already too lateTo change the path you have takenAs destiny and chaos collide once moreFor a split second, all things are oneIn that moment, you realize...

My Struggle

I’m here to tell you guys a story. As a matter of fact it is more of a testimony.About a time when the devil stole my joy.When my muscles were too frail to smileBut I had to much pride to frownThis is my strugglePicture a child whose third birthday is today.One would think that this would be a happy time in a child’s lifeHowever, this child is crying because his father ran out on him without saying...

Tribulations

The Politics of Sports

What's going on with sports today. We currently live in what I like to call the dark era Of sports. An era in which we hear more about steroids, ejections, sex scandels and dog-Fighting, the any homerun, 3 pointer, or touchdown. What I don't understand is the "punish-Ment" that these players receive. We already know that athletes and celbrities already getThe best of the law (although sports memoribilia...

Satiation

We all see homeless people and bums out on the street. Although we feel for them or sometimes wince at their stench or even talk about them, have you ever had the chance to think about how they got there....Can I have some more?Can you spare a dime?Yeah you can walk past me, and its fineBut have you ever took the time, to look past the grimeTo question the reason why I am homeless?The reasons why...

I wonder

Have you ever gotten out of a situation or a relationship, and later on down the road thought to yourself "What if I was still with that person??" Well this poem stresses that So as I sit back pondering over the idiosyncrasies of the life that is mineI often wonder “What if she WAS there?”What if she never released her underlying grasp, still being the luminary in the blue on which I fancy?Would...

There She Goes

Here is a poem that I wrote called "There She Goes". This just talks about mustering up the energy and the courage to finally introduce yourself to her. Mmm…Mmm…MMM….DAMN she is fine!! Once again she crosses my path and my mind andMy heart swells up with the feelings thatOnly I and God knowSo as I see her walk on by IWallow away in the distance andThoughts begin to cross my mind ofHow...
