#freestyle
#freestyle her spirit chills me the f*c out…/I am calm as the breeze you remembered/when you first fell in love/Absent of malice earth in her eyes…making something that rhymes with the rhythm in your spine/soul between that and belly button silver…At the mountain top I sit with you/Now named you and I/right knee to […]
Betrayal…
Betrayal… Part One. Are those who betray really that devious? Or are we too quick to believe, to green and naive? Let’s go somewhere else now, Deep inside the fellowship of brotherhood To the 1st I called brother from another mother. We were thick as thieves. The kind of cats that would […]
My Brother We are the same
We are the same… My Brother, A different height, a different tone A different frame, a different name My Brother The more I look at who we are The more I know we are the same. My Brother Flesh of my flesh, blood of my blood Eager ally and heated […]
Brave Heart
I lay deep in his chest protected by bone, muscle and courage. I am big enough to pump life blood to his imposing frame, I am strong enough to give optimism to those discouraged. I am brave enough to extend a humble invitation to a stranger with no name. I am warm […]
Love Thy Enemy
Extra, extra read all about it! / Hot off the press you can read all about it! / Strangers become friends/ friends become brothers/ Budding greatness becomes fear of potential/ Envy becomes failure to count a blessing/ High intelligence and low self esteem become an abuse of […]
Rob My Desire.
Victim I lay before this day, Mind and loins now prisoner born. My moon now longer where stars stay. I am brought down to rest on one knee. Within inches of the fucking keys. Stretching my arms painfully Extending fingers through the bars. Like long legs parting before […]
“Come Back 2 Me” Guest Blog by Collective member: “Poet”
Collective Member “Poet” Come Back to Me I am blessed for sure… Just for the time you gave, but to have loved you, only to lose you, leaves me in the stages of a slave. I’m forced to do things now that I don’t want to do. I’m forced to live out the remains of […]
Do You Love Yourself Enough…
Collective Member: Graffiti Bleu Do You Love Yourself Enough? You love But do you love yourself enough? You love to fit imaginary lovers into the cookie cutter silhouettes of wishful thoughts. You love the thought of someone who does not exist as they bake inside the oven of misguided meals. A watched pot […]
The Outsider…
The problem with love is that too many don’t practice. Or so I thought, naive as I go out as a sheep among the wolves The sheep representing how vulnerable you become when you create for the love of creating The train tracks could very well be the first wolf I encountered I will take you back to the days of […]
“The Collective” Guest Blog: Karee Shaw
Collective Member: Karee Shaw I’m the “Icing” on HIS cake! Fear you put in my heart, cutting me with words and images I just didn’t fit in with trying to be the person you wanted me to be I mean isn’t that love, sacrificing everything for us And what was “Us”, we wasn’t even connected […]
“The Collective” Mind’s Oak by Byron Walter
Guest Blog by Collective Member: Byron Walter “Mind’s Oak” Trying to remain level headed, cool, and collected. Sitting back putting everything into perspective. Find it hard at times, with my mind racing in all directions. Jumping from different topics and ideas slightly from a prior encounter or situation. But I store them in my […]
The Instigator
I am the instigator Here to challenge everything I identify as a lie These lies try to define you even though they did not create you Like the media telling you undernourished and whorish is an ideal look for women We should be insulted because we know better I am the instigator Here to challenge […]
