How broad can bald eagle
spread wings?
Over Gag and Magog,
to the east,
and the place of morning calm
When she is molting
a spot is unclothed,
New Orleans
in the south
Red China swelling in Asia
with great sway
An occult war
manufacturing frivolity
Mind control,
weapons of mass destruction;
a birthday gift
placed in gullible palms
Buttons are pushed
away from books
and noisy playgrounds
Slaves to the control,
mind control
Tomorrow’s men
are made in China

So few are they whose legion is peace.
Did Columbus chase stillness
beyond tumultuous seas?
Sails and oars were manned by dissidents,
genocide is patent.
Prayers and spreads with huge birds
were answered with reservations,
provisions like prisons,
and birthrights lifted.
So few are they whose legion is peace.
Devoid of wings, souls fly
to escape the flaming towers.
Barren of truth, tongues lie
to secure legends of power,
and destroy past ally.
It is for youth to pursue truth
before wicked moons glide by.
Leap with faith like ten Moses,
your Sabbath day is nigh.
Race is diversion,
kissing cheeks of cliché.
Is the spoil more than the sacrifice?
The new buds quietly fade;
their radiance slowly dies,
and the few whose throng is not peace
hold their heads so high,
while mothers blame the God
who watched their children’s suicide.

For days we mount white stallion,
going westward,
far from the black stone path
The beast pants,
but carry on
with fire in its eyes
New shoots down-trodden in the channel
I taste the straps on forerunners
deep beyond their dermis,
way pass the dark transgression
we obtained,
yet we hold this sin so dear;
a real peril to the end
I felt wind urging hoofs,
and heard the soil of a mother
calling from soles;
support for imperials
Mattocks pulled new soil
to conceal the cries
If philosophy changes,
there’ll be songs I’ll never sing,
but for now I’ll walk streets eastward,
and survey scuffles
while watching my reflections
on dark footprints
In hope the hoofs are hushed
I’ll lay me down
on fertile bed,
whence I will seep along common path
unto all taste buds
The earth will carry me,
as thick as blood

Climb high on Blue Mountain,
hug the dark rain clouds;
they too will burst into tears
that water concrete jungles
and wash traces of negro blood
from asphalt
Climb high on Blue Mountain
and bawl your green eyes red
Your womb is ancient, futile,
never to shed another,
another to choose this calamity
Climb high on Blue Mountain,
close to the heavens
but far away from creator
Where he is there’s jubilation
Cry tears red like Pharaoh’s plague,
and when you alight
retreat down your crooked way
What is it that jungle wished for, pounds of flesh?
Climb high on Blue Mountain
and look out
You cried you green eyes shut
but there are no changes;
you were void of vision
and concrete must be fed
with blood and tears
Climb high on Blue Mountain
and look at your creation

The bar was empty
I was sweeping up the floor
That's when she walked in
I said, "I'm sorry but we're closed"
And she said "I know,
But I'm afraid I left my purse"
I said, "I put one back behind the bar
I bet it's probably yours"
And the next thing that I knew
There we were, lost in conversation
And before I handed her her purse
I said, "You'll only get this back on one condition"
And we danced
Out there on that empty hardwood floor
The chairs up and the lights turned way down low
The music played, we held each other close
And we danced
And from that moment
There was never any doubt
I had found the one
That I had always dreamed about
And then one evenin'
When she stopped by after work
I pulled a diamond ring out of the pocket of my shirt
And as her eyes filled up with tears
She said, "This is the last thing I expected"
And then she took me by the hand
And said, "I'll only marry you on one condition"
And we danced
Out there on that empty hardwood floor
The chairs up and the lights turned way down low
The music played, we held each other close
And we danced
Like no one else had ever danced before
I can't explain what happened on that floor
But the music played
We held each other close
And we danced
Yeah, we danced

I'm sad
my heart has
lost its
beat.
I cried
my eyes look
like my feet.
I blew my
nose and
sniffed abit,
and called myself
a real
nitwit.
I just don't
get it maybe
I'm dumb.
I'm not but
but wish to stay
so numb.

Her fate calls out my name; & i breathe into her mouth the words ive kept since her finding..."Ur hair smells of an orchid aside a towering waterfall.. almost springtime.. a sensual compilimg. Envision this growl swells within my soul..as I rest my fingers now upon what makes me whole.. these vacant grand piano keys..so.. just so..that from within this shell..people will tell of a breeze propels u to me.

If a broken heart can cure its wounds by it self
There was no need for loving each other
Everywhere, everyone, every time will be fine
No hurries, no worries and no more sorry
If there is a world without blaming
And never can you find a falls of emotions
No one will be defeated by loving
And no one will be cheated by caring
Flowers never blame any one, even
If you picked it up and thrown it away
It cares every one by its beauty and
Love every one by its fragrance
A world without sorrows and worries
A mind with kind understanding others
A wind with mint and a touch of cares
Admit you if you are a true person of a best heart….

My voice rises above the ocean,
I am longing for you, so far and so alone.
Hear my call, Ô magnificent goddess,
It's your prince who calling you.
Listening to my voice, your steps have stopped.
Listening to my song, your heart has stopped.
The cruise of the time was suspended,
And the wide space was tinged with blue.
Your eyes getting up towards my voice
which implores you, from the other side of the sea
She begs you to come back to my shore,
Where you and I, together, would be so happy.
With a graceful gesture, you have taken your harp,
And with your nimble fingers, you gently touch the strings.
I hear your song in my turn that the ocean takes me back,
preceded by a white dove which anounces me your love.
Like a messenger from the gods,
She said that soon we will be together,
What we'll stand tenderly entwined
At the edge of the ocean that separated us so much.
The dove said, "love has no boundaries, no distance,
It is eternal and even, time has no hold on him.
FOr me, the greatest benefits will be your shared love,
and the vision of your eyes flooded with happiness. "
