Perception is Everything

Perception is Everything      Everything you are experiencing right now is a matter of your perception. Emotions and the state of your spirit will heavily influence how you perceive things. A relaxed person without worry for example, might come home from work to find his/her door unlocked and their first thought may be to […]

An open letter to the N.A.W.A.L.T.

An open letter to the N.A.W.A.L.T. Not All Women Are Like That/ This is a an absolute fact/ Few acknowledge you/ Or the selfless things you do/ Even less acknowledge your very existence/

Once Upon A Time There Were 2 Lovers…

#OnceUponATime there were 2 lovers who were ordained to teach each other love’s true nature as well as the nature of people… One lover was a man who saw himself as invincible, the other was a woman who saw herself as broken… She hid her brokenness behind a mask of ego and lust. Keeping her […]

Battle of the Planets #poetry

Looks like I am in a different space these days/ To best describe this inner space I’ll use outer space as a metaphor/ I dance with the planets in spirit form and verse in manifesto/ If you were empathic enough to see/ the universe inside of me/ You would see planets spinning around the Sun/ […]

I Know… #Poetry of a personal nature…

Graffiti Bleu

I know why you say “That conversation would never happen” I know why a woman who has no desire to make peace with me wants to have casual “dialogue” at work. I know why you were and still are hell bent on keeping our history a secret. I know exactly why you had a sudden […]

“She Fascinates Me” #poetry #remix

Graffiti Bleu

She fascinates me/She fascinates me with her relentless exploration/She is hungry for the flavors of passion/ If joy had a taste it would taste like her/ And after me being starved of love for quite some time/ I would experience a manifesto that was quite sublime/ She tastes life with me just before dripping wisdom […]

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 […]

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 […]

New York State of Mind…

Location, location, location… New York City. I grew up in this city. I left this city because the world was spinning too fast at the time. Now I’ve come back to make it stop. Life can throw you into a storm; on what was seemingly a very sunny day. I have learned to adapt to […]
