(REFLECTIONS AND INTROSPECTIONS AND MUTIPLE CONTUSIONS)

These days... These days I think back and suddenly none of it matters... All that wasted time... Worrying about shit that seems so inconsequential now... All that heartache... Those spilled tears... Such a sadly savage way of looking at it I guess... The times I thought it was all over... Yet here I am... Sun rising in the east... Breeze pon my skin... So many time death foretold for me... Threats upon my physicality... Guns held to my head... Fists thrown... Sticks swung... Knife sliding into skin... Still I a persevere... A true survivor... Child of the most high... A stream of higher consciousness... A force to behold... A glitch in the system... African son born in the belly of the beast... The red, black, green and gold flowing in my veins testifying, testifying... Such a harrowing journey... My own kind my worst enemy... Love such a brutal reality... The pain, the pain... Each moment a lesson in who I am... The truth bearing down would crush a man flat... Expel his last breath... His life flashing before his eyes... Such is the revelation... Such is realization.

(DARKLY I A MAN GO)

Here you are hanging over my head... A promise made before I and I born... Death my old nemises, my old friend... Black cape waving in the breeze... Tattered and torn... So subtle... No one knowing how you will come... You skilled in so many techniques... I but a student sitting in the auditorium listening to you speak... Your voice... I know that voice... You came in the night... Such a talented thief... Left I a man crying in a driving rain... Such pain... Such pain... I in anguish calling you from the heavens... Such foolish folly... You were gone... On your way to take another one... Such your way... Such a humbling lesson... I a graduate standing on your stage... A black suit draping my frame... Ashes to ashes and dust to dust another one lowered into the ground... Tears dissolving into dirt... Death the promise... So on and henceforth.

(SIMPLE TRUTH SUCCINCTLY TOLD)

Thou art the flower... Glistening petals in the rising dawn.... Such a delicately sensual display... I carried along on thy breeze... Such a devastating slay.

Thou art the softest cotton... The finest of silk... I rubbing thee lost in the scintillating stimulation... Thee rubbing me... I hard as marble... Thine lips shimmering... Covered in they dew... I spiraling to floor... Spinning, spinning.

Thou makest my beginnings and mine endings meet on fields of perdition... Lava brewing in mine loins... Spewing forth bearing fruit... Seeds buried in earth... I thermonuclear son... Born of such a union.

I feel thee in mine cellular structure... The nucleic substance of mine DNA... Pulsing drums on my mental plains... Subsonic pulsations in mine pineal... I so consumed... My very being defined in thee... I but a man see... You... Queen.

(Wombman)

She stands tall in sun

Resplendent in her nature 

He looks on in awe

(Scentual)

The universe spins

Such a tangled web eternal

Tales of birds and bees

(Confliktual)

War and pestilence

The people hoping for peace

Unification

(Entwined)

Together as one

She lingering in his arms

Only then is there calm

(Starshine)

Luminescent moon

Finally they exist cosmic

The heavens rejoice

(SWORD OF SAMURAI SINGETH) A SENRYU

(Thoughts)

Water blue reflects

Fluidly in it's nature

Poetically

(Celestial)

Sky blue looms above

Infinity in it's depths

Ever spiraling

(Terrestrial)

The ground calls one home

Retribution must be paid

Such is the cycle

(Whimsical)

Love the afterthought

A rose blooming fragrantly

Such a stringent song

(Arm,Leg,Leg,Arm,Head) MANIFEST

I man born of a cosmic sigh...  A ripple in the space time continuum... I man birthed of a star reborn terrestrial in hue-man form... Son of a Sun... Carbon and water... Birth of all life on this planet coded and encoded... Written of in holy scrolls...  There is none as unto I... Nothing I man cannot conquer... My born foretold... My death on this plane imminent... I man a child born of darkness and thrust into blinding light... The shine of a million stars... My skin absorbing thermonuclear power and converting it into my stride... Footprints etched out in the sand... Some light, some heavy... Sometimes I am air... My words on breeze flow... Griot speaking in the firelight... Gyrating bodies bouncing to the big boogity beat... Diversions and inversions... Baptisms and exorcisms... I man born of the big bang speaking these things...

I man the I am.

(ALIEN DESIRES ON PLANES OF PERDITION) INSPIRED BY TOYA

You my dear send me spiraling... An alien free falling to earth from the depths of outer space... Earth shattering collision as I traveler make impact... Feet pon solid ground.

Such a tantalizing vision... Clouds of ganja in mine eyes... You an apparation dancing pon the strands of cannabis smoke... I inhaling of your aura... A roar, a sigh.

I lover would look into your eyes... I lover would trade your lines optical... Every curve exploding into art upon the pineal pages of I mind... I mad artist wanting to drink of you in this reality.

Your name the elixer that would give I God strength... Raise my people from the lowly status that finds them in these times... I calling it in coitus as my eruption fills you up... Runs down your thighs... In you am I man found.

A sigh as I appreciative collapse sated... Sweat pon my brow, your lubrication glistening pon my phallus... Sweetest of the honey dew... I who tasted of you as you moaned spread... Feet pon my shoulders... I in the valley of the Lily... Such a lovely vision.

My release.
