brother
from another mother
(who happened to be my godmother)
is she really gone?
if her laugh still rings
inside?
love
connects
across distance
and time,
Death can't be proud,
cuz Love deaded that too.
let fear be transitory,
and fall back
into love, look deep,
and see
her inside of you
giggling in glee.
Category: In Vino….
cool magic starlight ecstasy time travel
hearts
skip past
anticipation, into the wonder of what may be.
souls
slip back
in time, to watch their story unfold.
Lips
brush gently
accidental, intent on experiencing a first.
and we stand here,
locked
in infinity,
finally free.
Where Brooklyn at?
so many faces but,
none
of them mine.
so many beats,
yet none break
my spine
where is BK at?
where is the love?
where is me?
and you, who I love?
it’s a Weeknd brunch,
without the waffles
or chicken either.
it’s a deluge
of sorrow
and guilt,
that just
ain’t
mine.
so tell me…
where
is
the love?
I said clap yo hands everybody
Clap yo hands,
and say naw.
i saw you
hiding behind the shadow of yourself,
and I cried, hoping
my soft tears
might rip you from your reality.
But
Here
You
Are,
waiting
for what will
not come.
I miss you,
the you who heard,
and danced
to the wind's song...
the you,
who hear my own song.
the you who dream.
so....I miss you.
untitled
silence overwhelming
muffles ears, and
heart,
and my soul too.
a tempest awaits over
yonder,
just
behind this thick and seductive calm,
upon which
I rest a weary head-
upon which,
I lose all fear
and dread.
and with that first CRACK
of release,
a rumbling of unfathomable possibility follows,
and I am reborn and
free,
and again at peace.
i am free: a poem for patriots
i am free
so fuck you.
don't try to tell me,
or my sisters
what to do.
i am free
so fuck you.
No matter
the number of bullets,
our march continues.
i am free
so fuck you
your fear based politics
lubricate
shriveled up lies
that soon will be due.
i am free
so fuck you.
Happy Fourth of July Mother Lovers.
(but fuck you)
glittering for tomorrow
the longing with
which I hold on to memories of success,
bleed mercilessly into
endless days
and nights of summer.
and firm visions
of yesterday slip uncertain
into the haze of here
and now.
drowning,
between gusts of
summer madness,
&
heretical expectation,
I float
roughly,
'cross an ocean breeze
to
screams of delight which
punch so gracefully through the wind,
harmonizing elegantly,
with the cries of anguish
for what must leave.
and I wait
impatient,
for the wheel
must turn .
Beauty Offset: A Symphonic Sunset
your
radiances blind
the truth vision of my soul,
but
it is just
when my sight is so tossed
askew, that i can truly begin
to envelop all of you.
and as dusk creeps
seductive
behind your ferocious succumbing,
i see
the synchronicity
of delightful and
pretty things.
i see
the love
twixt me
and you.
Asante Sana (digging on you)
your eyes
brimming with cool
ancient fire,
send sparks
of joy
racing
beneath my skin.
but,
the jolt of your wonder
rocks me
deep.
a future wild,
unpredictable
and free, filled
with mischief
and surprise,
awaits us.
only if
if you felt
the thrill of destiny
the way I do,
you too
would fly.
but,
if you could feel
what I feel,
maybe i wouldn't
share how
happy it feels
to be so sweet on you
(nah, I would).
so i soar, high
on this splendiferous bliss,
reminded of the magic
and the beauty
released
with every silly giggle
that set our souls awiggle,
and
each tender kiss,
shared twixt trembling lips.
and i thank you
for briefly glimpsing infinity
with me.
