I’ve a proposition, I would like to state poetically; it is my desire, for us to conspire and I couldn’t say it more emphatically
You and your book, are what I have been looking for, as my artistic equal; I believe we should collaborate, let’s do a sequel
I really enjoyed reading your words, as they bonded with the page; providing the mind the basis, to properly set the stage
You can be common virtue and I’ll be common sense; you can wash their minds to prepare them, so that I may then rinse
We won’t hang them out to dry or leave them soaking wet; we’ll give them a special treatment, an emotional wash and set
You have touched my heart, let me touch yours back; so we can work together, to inspire each other, if we can make a pact
With your youthful wisdom, you can really set the tone; with my more sagacious mind, I can then help, etch it all in stone
Two gifted artists such we working together, maybe perceived as a crime; I would just simply call us, partners in rhyme
Can we join forces, it doesn’t have to be hand in hand; we can bring the world a new concept and call it poetry on demand
If your love of writing, is nearly anything like mine; with our talents blended together, this thing can run wild, like a vine
I can truly envision us forming, a dynamic poetic dynasty; bridging gendered gaps, which have existed throughout history
We can be like Bonnie and Clyde, on a national crime spree; instead of robbing banks, we can be helping to set minds free
We can be like Peaches and Herb, who really understood; as we are helping to reunite people and make them feel so good
We can be like Ashford and Simpson, who were so tough; they were able to climb each mountain, none were high enough
We could be like Sonny and Cher, neither of them could sing; but when they got together , oh how they just did their thing
We could be like dance partners, dancing with the stars; elevating peoples’ minds to places like Venus, Mercury and Mars
We can make this intergalactic travel, take place in the mind; helping others to experience close encounters, of a better kind
We can pitch our tent and set up camp inside of peoples’ hearts; after we have rebuilt them, we can then, just gently depart
After we leave, our words can still forever remain; pumping cool relief, through their entire body, culminating in the brain
Like Robin of Locksley, we can raid their forested emotions; moving through the thicket of each issue, to provide a potion
If you like the way I write, you will love the way I think; just unite with me, to set those free, whose lives are on the brink
I am not nearly arrogant, nor am I slightly conceited; but I truly believe, that you and me both, can be artistically completed
We can start a poetically academic revolution ; you can provide the complex problem and I can provide the simple solution
I’m in the middle of a journey and yours has barely begun; yet we meet at this place, let’s seize the moment and let this run
There is so much healing, in this world that needs to be done; we can give hope and belief, for some who felt they had none
Let’s put our heads together, to write a poetic conversation; so that when people read it, they come to an instant revelation
If my proposition is poetically and mutually clear; if you are passionately agreeable, yes is the answer, I would like to hear

I Didn't Sign Up For This (In the spirit of Sergeant La David JohnsonI've made my last formation taken my last PT test; fired my last weapon and now I've been laid to rest Still I'm not resting because my family is experiencing public grief; due to the actions of my commander-in-chief I was never one to complain or grumble and I definitely wouldn't pout; but this is so unreasonable so now I'm speaking out I proudly raised my hand and gladly took the oath; as I enlisted to be a soldier...and I always cherished both When I took my oath I was asked to state my name; when you spoke to my wife I wish you would've done the same I won't question your initial motive while others are free to theorize; but for the sake of unity as our leader why not simply apologize I signed up to serve on the battlefield at the risk of the blood that I would shed; but I never wanted my family to suffer, or have the public be misled I didn't sign up...  |
Love's War On DivorceIf all is fair…In love and war…. Then…Why do both seem so unfair… Maybe…We need a new justice system… As…This one’s gotten us nowhere For richer or for poorer… The… Traditional marriage vows say… True Christians marry for love… Not tradition…Letting God lead the way In sickness and in health…. Until death do us part…At the altar we repeat… But…When the headaches come and bullets fly… We beat a hasty retreat For better or for worse… Has become a double edged sword… So...For those cutting issues… Our best… Should be the others reward Forsaking all others…Oh for goodness sake… We must seek first the kingdom of God… And let him add our soulmate |
Serve and Protect With Dignity and RespectServe and Protect With Dignity and Respect
After centuries of oppression and being misunderstood.... you still shout and cuss at me.... While patrolling my neighborhood
Now for a deeper analysis on an issue That has gripped an entire nation.... My only question remains the reason and manner.... Of the confrontation
The truth of events that followed... May eternally be in dispute... But... The fact another young black man is dead.... Begs the question.... did he have to shoot...?
Patrol car, siren, uniform and gun... Fully equipped to serve and protect.... But in the process of doing this.... There should also be dignity and respect
"Gentle Giant" or "Angel".... Is not a proper issue for debate.... ... |
Have You NoticedHave You Noticed Have you noticed.....? Organized prayer in schools… Somehow has become forbidden ..... While some of the greatest social ills…. Are on display.... Which should be hidden.....? Have you noticed....? A black man was elected president... Not once but twice.... However.... We failed to support him during midterm elections... Following bad advice Have you noticed..... Gas prices are dropping... As each day goes by... Making we wonder why... hmmm... They ever got so high.... Have you noticed....? The spirit of Sodom and Gomorrah.... Has found it's way into our society.... Now we have laws.... Of an ungodly variety Have you noticed....? Politicians are losing their conscience... Legalizing sin... Mak... |
Undeceivable LoveI can feel your emptiness, as through me it does surge But still.... I wait patiently, for your passion to re-emerge I'm left to ponder your void, as we ritually embrace I can tell by the stillness of your eyelids, that your mind's in another place True love can't be deceived, as through love it find's it's truth and peace Whether disclosed or undisclosed, in it's own love, it finds relief A buried treasure's value, increases if not dug up in haste But non-biodegradables, if not properly disposed of, in time will become toxic waste I can feel the effects of a body and mind, that continues to roam But though loves great understanding, I feel your heart has found it's home Love is unselfish and blind and in time this you will come to see I don't just love you for you, I love you even more for me My true love has been our foundat... |
Living a Cofession; Loving Two WomenYes…I love two women at the same time…for one simple reason For no other purpose, except….they’re my perfect blend of season I love one, for all that she is and all that she’s helped to make me I love the other for what she’s not and the promise… of what I could come to be One gives me a past, a beautiful history The other offers a future, filled with great mystery One made me a father and demanded that I go farther The other patiently waited on me, when I could go no further I love one for the attachment to a foundation, which provides stability I love the other for the hope of adventure, when I think of being free A divided masculine fulfillment, composed of wife, mistress, lover, friends and mother A triumvirate that can’t coexist… but where would I be, without one or the other I’m trapped in di... |
Another Restless NightTripping over you, as I fall into bed Experiencing further disappointment, because I’ve been misled Tossing and turning, as I turn away from you Rolling over to face the issues that surround me, asking what do I do? Going through the motions, yet emotionless Thinking of abandoning this situation, unwilling to confess Trying not to be here, has gotten me nowhere Feeling….. if either of us left, neither would even care Blanketed between external lust and internal satisfaction Injecting suggestions of seductive thoughts, still there's no reaction My eyes I can close, but from this state I can’t escape Night after night, replaying the same worn out tape The Comforter brings no comfort and the sheets don’t seem to fit The headboard is idle and silent, so frustrated here I sit While the mattress is brand new, all of its bounce is gone H... |
Love's Contradictions
I tell you my story as you listen intently, falling into me evidently; to be embraced and supported rather consequently
I whisper loudly to be heard, stirring in a melting pot of emotions; mixing in every ingredient, brewing this love potion
The attraction of opposites, desirous of a complementary theme; here’s the missing piece of my puzzle, or so does it seem

What is the Price for LifeIf you’re not living today and desire to live tomorrow; can you afford to pay cash, or from your future will you borrow
