The shrill trill of the baboon,
a crude tune sung beneath the moon.
Taking swills to steel their wills—
Straight outta the gate, a tale based off self-hate
Peep how certain pieces of the jigsaw develop and correlate:
More undefined than cardinal directions in space,
Nationality, ethnicity, or descriptions of race
Poetry has no rules
it’s just me
speaking my truth
sharing my inner desires
while trying to make sense of it all
Its like a beautiful chaos
or an abstract painting
its like a abstract thought
order in the court!
the judge yelled out loud
as a loud uproar came from the crowd
the judge asked if peace could take the stand
the crowd proceeded with the questions
how do you think you could help?
it was a stormy night
5 minutes passed the hour
the birds had gone to sleep
and the world was finally ours
i took her for a ride
and i saw how the waves crashed against her thigh
the calm after the storm
reminds us that
pain doesn’t last forever
chaos is swept from under our feet
we get a fresh start to try again
to do better
to be better
rainbows are a sign
Words are more than words
They're a reflection of our heart
Speckles like the stars
It's a art like you and Mars
These words shape realities
These words are like duality
Life and death resides in it
Thoughts in my head feel heavy
Why do the thoughts in my head make me weary?
The past few days have been tragic
And while I was in it, I wasn't in the present moment.
Distracted by currency
HAPPY ENDING
I have so many stories to tell
Are you about ready to
Trade those places with me
A long visit to where my
My stories greatly entails
When you open every chapter
To what my story unfurl
Three travelers come across a forest,
And pause to gaze--
Trees tall and hoar with age, in hushed air,
Whose mossy trunks
At church last night, we were sharing a meal, celebrating the girl in nice, white clothes, not quite as little as you'd expect.
It's time
I realize that now
I wasn’t ready before
Not like I thought I was
I was only forcing the inspiration
The urgency
Looking up at the sky I remember the timeWhen I received those wings and took flightUnbound by the earth and finally freeI thought maybe, I could fly higher
I still eat peanut butter as if it fulfills all the categories in
the nutritional pyramid. It can be found in the cupboards of each place
I hang up my jacket and step in. What’s convenient about
Everything is Dark
I stare out through my window
I feel numb and I can’t move
Am I scared?
Boom! A flash of light
a gun is firing, I don’t flinch
Why can’t I look away?
Her eyes were like shadowsReclusive and tauntingHis eyes were the sunShining, yet dauntingShe had seen him before but they never had spokenUntil one day she left him an affectionate tokenShe'd seen him at his locker, 46-BBut what she left he'd hav
Madness is ambiguous, just like reality
When life is too sweet, you get bad cavities
Because there's beauty in the struggle
The ups and downs, concavity
It's been a good life, so my concious holds
To tell a story with the tongue
Can be a feat at best
Yet every word becomes a world
To the listening guest
She Will
The woman leaps across the continent:
Bern, Paris, Munich, Prague,
the green sloping fields of Switzerland.
She is moving forward,
moving towards
Dead! My love is dead!
Taken from me prematurely
By silver wrought through his heart, Murdered
By a man no more virtuous than himself
Immortal heart impaled
My sisters slayed, bodies flayed
I am from lands which weep rain unto us all;From cozy tapestries of cloud and trees like the fingers of God.I am from the sweet, bastard child of Gaia and Hephaestus,Where Nature dances the waltz with Industry
Give me then something to write about
All the truth-tellers scrambling around
Aching twisting burning out
Because really, whats left to say?
Why write why write why write
Poetry?
Old is the style
of this poem,
Harkening back
to how long ago?
Yet despite age,
dear it is still,
telling stories
til' the day's end.
Upscale or upstage
Peaceful fight or calm rage
Black and white or a melodic gray
Take hold of the wind or the gravity and stay
