POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
.:Too Close:.
inside my mind’s eye
appearing real as flesh
tasting as sweetened blood
she enters, comes so close
perhaps too close
unlike her I am a favored apparition
this as I walk through walls of recall
old thoughts becoming so familiar
they creep around and
within my solitude
these thoughts
jarring my mind; awakening or
are they attempting to put me to sleep?
we creep together
and I cannot tell the difference
I’ve become shaken; my blood
running hot, then cold
running, it courses through out my body ...

.:Ugly:.
Go ahead look; then look again
Another cream-colored story; a fable
Not quite bright. Rather somewhat off white
Another white lie just the same
Mixing it up. Ugly is seen
On the scene working at it hard
Being itself...Casting off overcast shadow
Seeing what’s serious, seeing within the frame
We reference the game…played
Searching for honest
Again…Go ahead and look. Grab a mirror sing along
Ugly approaches...conveying the latest lie
Another spin coming at us even more...

.:Grade 4.Oh Friends:.
beginning of the year; we were so
psyched, light, so sincere, so brilliant
didn’t know how we’d learned to be so resilient
the first time and every time thereafter
at least that’s what I felt
test scores…I aced mine
must have tripped over my own mind
happiness...I felt so optimistic
had me thinking our thing
we would always last
at least to and through to the next time
but then, time teetered
came around again only to flame out
a new route; new friends
they both came with different trends
they came inviting;
offering up...

.:Almond Eyes:.
What the Faith of the Heart meant
Not to stare…yet to remain sentient
To continuously keep aware!
Creation is to care & share; this pair
They are the twins of tremendous
Stupendous; each almond giving joy and
One can clearly see this
Know & hear this
One needs inside to clearly understand this
Truly one cannot suspend this
“No one or two are to wander careless”
So fear this…in fact
if one does slip
Seek…The Forgiveness
And with that…so goes the dispatching of that Whisperer
It is he who would have us...

::I Want::
In Hell...I wanna two second cameo like Alfred Hitchcock
Scratch that!!!
I wanna pass by George Zimmerman unscathed while firing rounds from My Glock
I want 7O virgins without any cock block...want ‘em on an open-ended time clock
I want unceremoniously held ceremonies hosted by Chris Rock
I want blood red carpet, the paparazzi and whole lot of fan chatter
I want the ooooo’s and the ahhh’s, although they and it won’t matter
I wanna set sail on My Own Yacht
But first I wanna dry dock along side an Oil Baron’s yacht
Then I wanna swing a...

.:A Musing After Final Introspective Analysis Has Incinerated Them:.
This is being recorded.
So what would you have me say?
What would you have me do...Kiss the ring? Your cheek?
Would you have me take another peek?
Freak. Don't answer that. Because this here is the fact
I can’t get with that...But you need to get with this
Together we will never enjoin Bliss.
There'll be NO trying; I'm not about The Risk
We ain't never gonna be cool. I'm so positively not into you
I'm so undeniably without a doubt so through with you
See I'm over you. This is so much more than true
Look here I can see that with you that...

.:Ree-Ree Reinvented.edit:.
Last day and we were out; out of that mess
The State’s guest walkin a straight-line test
Crooked. Shadowy figures moving about
Next day, same route..
Stop & go. You know or maybe you don’t
Do eye know you?
Then reach or teach; it’s
Do what you gotta do
So we did the work around until it ceased
Early release; stayed humble chilled the bold
Took the slow roll through the toll
Couldn’t yet comprehend.
But we was sure it'd be round the next bend
Seems long ago like another place
Get down or lay down; that’s...

* T.H.E. M.A.D. D.A.S.H. (III)
tomorrow’s hopes evoke; mothers against d'evils deserving all sacred happiness *
Its all in the knowing; the reaping & the sewing
if you breathing then you’re still growing
we're hoping that’s the way its going
this world a circular flow setup to go toe-to-toe
clearly like H2O a lesson-lucid…the fluid
not to get slept a superior concept; one mostly well kept..
the un-Whack unfurled; this world handing out a "rightly-grown Honest"
given that ability to admonish where some are still astonished by what came first
detected each reverse...

.:Bus(t)King.004:.
So this is called SONG Lyrics; my bad
Thought it was Lay Down The Law - Firm of Any Unadulterated Spirits
Where a Putin Bootleg that’s the Best Way to Hear it
Right here we just gonna smear it
Ink Dry; copywrit each bit…out the note book bout to tear it
Out of the swamp like a King Gator. Now who wanna be a hater
Go ‘head dare ya, Go ‘head pan the fader; it’s
Almost spring, time for my fling now who wanna get flung?
I think all y’all bout to get stung. Ladder up. Fire Man, Go 'head grab the rung
This insurgency got urgency We just begun. Now ...

.:Freedom to Dumb Down Like a Dick-headed Dummy:.
you think wrong
question
how long?
full grown; with
nose to the grind stone
likened to the dung beetle
you heading home;
patched in streaming for progress
it’s our inter-dependence
thought we’d mention this
GOD Bless America
famished figures
frequently falling into fatigue
financial is always the statement
It’s what Kate Smith really meant
from manic to platonic
the way the money talks
the message is…the Dawn is Dark
and we’re almost free…to dumb
down
as much as...

An almost perfected life styled to amaze ya;
The imagined fantasy of a future's fantasia
To date.. an arrival not a moment too late…propelled
Coming upon a newfound yet somewhat dysfunctional sphere
Here we’ve seen what has caused an exceptional tear
What befalls this.. Troubling this epitome of the femme fatale?
It’s in the revelation that there's an all too evident need of improvement
No matter... with care. There will be this spell bounding accord
A formula brought about by Miss Na Na and her wit
Her and game-her-ship. It's not to be reckoned...
