The Mystery of Black History… #Poetry

There is a certain truth that moonlight brings/ That truth is as sharp as Valyrian steel/ Sharp enough to slice through a lie/ this particular lie/ you chose to believe just to satisfy/  The basic needs of a man’s vanity/ This lie pisses me off at times, but I’ll try to get through this without […]

Do Your Selfish Ways Serve You?

If you say that it does; I must say I’m not impressed/ you always act like you could care less/ but I’m spiritually sensitive and I can feel your level of stress/ Damn Sun… you’re a mess/ You seem to be stuck on checkers/ playing with Rooks, Bishops, Queens and Kings who are ready for […]

How is it Possible for Love to be a Loss?

How is it Possible for Love to be a Loss? A grown man cried/ another saw him and lied/ by stating that “Nice guys finish last” as if he had proper context/ I speak in spirit when I say this/ in its proper context that guy’s statement is nonsense/ Sheeeeeet… back in the days “nice” […]

So How Can My Fire Turn You Cold?.. #QuickVerse

Funny how passion can scare some people/ Or better yet maybe it’s not funny at all/ Fear is about as funny as an insecurity looking to control what cannot be tamed/ The eternal flame/ That will give you hell if you try to contain it/ Let alone explain it/ Do so in poetic verse if […]

I Support Your Freedom… #QiuckVerse

I support your freedom/ You are free to express yourself/  Not that you need my permission/  You are free to undress yourself/  Not simply just for a sexual position/ You have the freedom to shed the skin you’re in/ Shape shift like the goddesses that rule over men/ Change form like a child’s mind at […]

Queen of What?

The Queen of hearts broken/ Possibly/ The Queen of humility not spoken/ Humbly/ The Queen of everything hot like steam/ The queen of broken dreams/ The Queen of a fear that makes lovers turn mean/ Incredibly/ Does a Queen cause her King anger? / Maybe/ Does a Queen turn a King who was her best […]

How can I make your ugly beautiful?

How can I make your ugly beautiful? / First I have to go to that ugly place/ put it in verse and give it perspective/ Raw dog no contraceptive/ only to give birth to a beautiful truth/ My beautiful truth to be exact/ since we are all aware of the fact/ that your truth and my […]

Underground or Underground #HustlerzCode

“My husband, my mentor, my lover, my friend. The only thing better than exploring your body was experiencing your soul. Listening to you share your wisdom while you accepted my truth without passing judgement or implementing boundaries. Making me live the life of the Black Butterfly you insisted I be. I am yours because I […]

The Warrior Drums of Her…

She came to me like warrior drums in the distance/ Love was on the march towards me/ Yet the rhythms were different/ Steady and true restoring the faith that love is persistent and constant/ Mute on any music that says otherwise/ Her love came to me seemingly random like the water that flows down the […]

A Beautiful Death

A good friend of mine came to me in confidence and told me that he was sad to see me because he had a dream that I had died. He said the dream was very vivid and that the dream felt very real; also he said that he even went to my wake in the […]
