What is Care?
I'm vulnerable on pillow
Days spent in company of laughter, visiting all the eateries
Spending benefits on cuisine
Developing a business, who the boss on a pyramid doesn't pay
Sends sheckles your way - ''Mickey Mouse Business''
Watching the tubes and Rolex watches jangle past so you hear them waking at 11
You took a breast in mouth and pronounced a payment for your care
As if there could be noone other than ageing mother cooking soup who would have been there
Proclaimed yourself Everything and I stuttered into its vowels
When god rested his palm upon my forehead I found voice loud and proud
Asked you to leave that in fact you were not enough for me
My request was in friendship
And there you were taking my last dime
These precious folds of time have glass splinters as I see you through Kalediescope&n... |
We are of the Sunshine - For Sonya Massey
With the colour of the eyes, bright and dark and sparkling
The tree appears more green, the water reflects the spirit
My skin receives touch with tingles and messages, direction
The heart beats stronger
My digest works in timing with the moon
Through corner eye you look towards me
And I say turn front - look at me direct
You won't until the fires are burning, punches thrown
Black smoke filling cloudy air
Tony Robbins is your hero and you are due to be made an extremist organisation by an appalled government
My look of discernment, concern is called aggression
My animal, dog named beast from my protection to your contrite ignorance at best
The vest I wear to protect from bullet
Comes from your finger, your pysche and your lack
How am I to support that? A broke chain of policys that tell me of your politricks

Your my Youth
I see in your eyes reflection
I see stars and moons and wonder?
You ask me ''mama what is this?'' I tell you look inside you will see the answer
You come in with cut on knee and say I ran into him in football
He was getting in my way
I say did your tummy say go into or run around
He sat ahwile still with curls I want to touch
But I leave him sitting with the universe
And he says ''well mummy if I had run around then maybe I would have seen the Sun around the goal''
I said my son ''you are blessed''
And left him sitting in thought
Wishing all I had to do was hold little man to my chest. |
Golden Age
Crumbling, crashing, burying children in rubble
We must take their dreams and hold them in our hearts
It is devasting and heart breaking that this unnatural circumstance arise
That the burial of their children comes before their own
So sweet the thoughts and purity how can we not reach up and touch the sky line where they now rest
And want this for those of us who remain
Not rot in decripdness of hate, and trolling and discontent
To find the wonder in a bee resting on a flower
Of the natural food found within our own geographic
To rise up our vibration in honour and humility
All this badness is witnessed is seen and noted by most high
Where and who will you be? Have you been when you die?
Is your innocent giving loving and nurturing child heart still alive?
Bless the moments of aloneness and feel their sacred power asking for us to be more

The pound and the dollar
Collecting brass coins, the shape jingle and smell of copper
In pocket, one is torn the coat is expensive
Looking inside I find calm, I ponder over your reviews products and channels
Advice from Stocks/Shares/Mortgages/Crypto turning with woven weaved rope tying me to life
This is responsible this is necessary, this is obtrusive
Yet is it inclusive?
I file applications and Red Flags appear on high risk countries,
Nigeria to go - to leave - the app says make it dissapear
Waiting in corridors with patience on my face
Iv'e boiled ginger root, plantain and callalo to taste
They flock to eat the soul food
Residing in towers of glass and steel
My back is proud as you buy another product and I can have an eat out meal
Travel is becokining and like the fallen fathers, there is wish to learn ... |
The Funnys
Sweat is the scent, sweet sweat acidic even it is hanging in the doorway
Back room is blue, walls, framed mirror and thick blue and white Persian rug
A piano? This escapes me
What does not is a local boy head bent dripping from nose, white powered sprayed across oak the lines little finger of left hand would marvel at before
Lifting to play Chopsticks
There on the sky, surrounded by purple, green, Ivy bush that my toosh flew into
much laughter they died laughing
eyes dilated and a familiar together they are now similar
The world is good it is fun, it's laughter lessons of a father
Screaming ''ludicrous'' adding to the hilarity
Music hits in shaking places and they see through eyes of owl
Throwing in the towel of life - discussing nothing yet it is Deeeep man
so deep that they have found the meaning of all t... |
Newcastle
Thundering Nights
There is power in sleep
Drifting to another planet
Where acceptance is gifted, magic on pillow
Removing sweats
No one witnesses my ascent
Noone holds the crescent of my bottom or womb
Tears are rising upwards
And I remember saying he approaches
The dark knight
I forgot to lock the door
I called my phone a gun
I held the corners laughing
A head nod means acknowledgement, without handshake
How my body shook to receive new beginnings
Life created
In the dark of Newcastle, the gritty streets, steaming fast cars and motorbikes
Crack houses giving spots to my clear complexion
Never on the pipe, yet the air we breathe is thick with it enough to be high
Kids faces snarled withered by rainy sheets of salt water
Streaming tears of lasses in leggings showing c... |
Canary Wharf
You mocking bird, you singing humming bird
You sky scraper and letter shedder
You dismaying of lives, your swimming pools of lean machines
Working like a robot
Punching numbers and symbols
And somewhere a daughter weeps for when it touched her land, her cry for wheat nothing left but the cusp shell of it in her bread bin
The symbol tapper buys a Gucci Bag, he burys a diamond into her drink
Clink clink and Salud
I think of prison sometimes travelling on a boat gazing the lights at night
Uber clipper
I wonder is the adrenalin they feel a real heartbeat
Our youth giggle wearing leather trench coat near by me
She's you know ''the crazy lady'' they giggle it increases as I frown a playful frown
Hearing the rivulets of a Robin now, red of breast
As much as my mothers husband e... |
Fly my Son
Fly my son
Reach heavens heights
Take your projects climd with might
Be strong, yet vulnerable don't fear your tear
Dont hide your emotions from ones who you hold dear
Fly my son as if golden wings castle your back
Be bold and beautiful hold nothing back
Grow my son into your self, hold the mirror and know
I am black, I am beautiful
I am health I am wealth
Fly my son
So that I may bask in the rivulets of air from your wing
And you can hold my hand whilst I sing
The way Nana used to
My boy because of you I know what is sung from pulpit is true
God is real I know this because of you

Lean On Me
I am prohphetic empathetic kind
I am wisdom and experience on my grind
I hear friends woes and shallow into the depths of the peace I find in my own mind
Where I dream of Villas, Tequilas and Sunshine
Walking up mountains
Heavy the load you burden me not
Time has allowed me selfish periods
So I look on you with non judgemental eyes
Everyday I say when bustling on tube I check myself to say
We are all just simply human kind
