phreeyomind Poetry (7)

A sister once told me
If the male sperm sits too long in the testicles
It could cause prostate cancer and it's important
For men to have multiple ejaculations
Or even m**turbate often to release the sperm

Well, this brother told me that he agreed and he chokes his chicken
Or visits Mrs. Palmer and her five children often...
As much as possible!
And he admits that he doesn't have prostate cancer

However, he contracted arthritis
In the elbow, forearm, fingers, and wrist!
Now, ain't that about a b*tch?

Imagination


I purposely waited for your lungs
To exit out every each of air as you silently slept
Closed eyes except for the mind’s eye…wildly open
To accept the inhaling of your life… your breath

It’s a visualization of love waiting
Waiting to be engulfed while taking you in
Like a tree standing against the roadside
Overlooking the coastal line of a 17 miles drive
In Carmichael as the wind freely blows

Imagine soft raindrop butterfly kisses
With your face wrapped inside
Of bright rainbow colors
And your smile causes deep ocean waves to stand still
Just to embrace the beauty of your spirit
Can you hear it…can you feel it?

I imagine you…the audience holding on to your…
Seats to take on notes played by John Coltrane
Like the pulse that beats
Between the up and down motion of your heart
And love shall be not unlike the blood
That travels through your vain

Imagine a nation…a world…where
Love just flooows before you even awake out of your slumber
Just before your feet reach the surface
Listen…it’s…almost a soft… whisper of laughter
Of happy rainbow people of all color, creeds, sizes and whateverother
All jammin’ to the Imagination song and sounds
Produced by nature…hmmm…Mother!
Imagine that if you will

Her Smile
By: Nia

When she smiles at me or to the world
It seems as though her glow illuminates and agitates
A rhythm like a rainbow magically appears in the sky
Magnetically, her smile lights up the world
Not unlike the moon to a dark universe

She step into my life while all alone
Capturing my heart unbeknownst to thee
And her name is MJC
The J is for Jo and yes...I'm missing her

Missing the vocal tone that I've
Become so accustomed to
How could it be wrong for me
To say that I love you?

She said, it's not "normal" for a...
Person wanting or needing to
Call or text his or her love one
After the relationship is over!

Well, tell me then honey
What's normal?
Is it not right for a man or woman to put up
His or "best" fight to save those

Loving moments of happy days
Or, am I to behave as though it's okay or...
Drop it as it's hot?

See, CJ that's a slippery slop, sloop slid to K because all too long we...
As a people simply throw in the towel far too early as I…. cry out
Dry tears because it seems strange to explain the pain

Therefore the tears remain inside...damn I try....hard to hide
My truth from you because wanting to reach out to you
Just to say Hi anytime I'd like is a struggle
Eternally it's a fight and it gets hard at night!

Because I know she hurts too!
I feel and felt like calling up a crew to relate this message
On my behalf...glad I and I came to my senses
Last thing I'd want is for her to get even further pissed

Wishing, praying upon a star that your heart
Won't take all of this in a way that's negative
Perhaps you'll read it entirely and in'ceive it as it's..

Meant to be...ok baby I'll admit it...loneliness...
Is the only feeling momentarily I see
And please don't go there…I'm not in any fashion

Trying to make you feel guilty about anything
Really, I'm simply pouring out and sharing my feelings
To my sister, friend and woman that I love deeply and care about
Whole heartily, so excuse or give me pardon
For this poem being written entirely with honesty

It's only my opinion (yeah) and I'm not clamming to know...
All things and irrespective of what you think of me
Expressing my heart in this vulnerable spiritual state

Her smile reminds me of the uncontrollable...
Laughter of a child tickled to the max
Surely, you've heard that sound before
May I be honest with you lady? You I adore!

No babe, this isn't one of those pressurized poems!
To endeavor a change of heart
One thing is for sure, I don't wanna make you angry
Anymore than you already are!

One last thing I'd care to say
Trust and believe "I wanna respect your wishes
And give you your space
But know this...
It's challenging when all I see is your face!

She moves like leaves...
Being blown by a summer windy breeze
The funny thing about that is
I've only seen this being in my daydreams

As I watch her slow dance in my imagination
And while listening to her tone
You see I hear the poetry that she speaks
While simply reading every stroke of her pen
She allowed me in to sneak a peak at her...

Slow Dance and I know she's got moves
Just by feeling each readable line...
Lines now filled with so much passion
Every now and then I'd hear that little girl laugh

I told her this all in one conversation that lasted...
Seemingly for hours...I wasn't dreaming this
Maybe I was but damn...this time it lasted for hours
And now every night...guess what?
We Slow Dance...I mean we reeeeally Slow Dance

We take the time to fantasize the romance
I visualized my hands all ova(ebonically speaking)dem hips
Shit this one is slim...but also thick

Ask me...how do I know this?
In my dream I saw she and I do a Chicago Step
Actually it's called Steppin'
It's kind of got that homeboy fill
But mixed in with a lil Spanish'ism

And damn when we're into our groove
Kind of like being into a zone
You know what I mean?
Simular to two lovebirds speaking hours into a phone
I'm gonna call her MOE...like Moe Betta Blues
Again...I'll wait to watch you Slow Dance

Today

I must have balled my eyes out
On my knees curled up what seemed to me
In the form of a fetus
Praying to the Almighty God
Amen Ra for forgiveness

Oh...did I call out His name loud!
Loud to myself so that I didn’t wake up my family
Damn shame that I...haven’t any shame in my............Game
To let -you - in-on- my- secrete
Watch this though
Many souls have the same secrete
But I’m the only knucklehead that’s unable to keep it...to myself

Today I cried out to God
To make me a better man
As well as a better servant
A better Baba (father) to my children
A better brother to my brother’s and sister’s of the earth!

Today I cried soooo hard til my soul could release
Release all the pain and all the hurt
I must have cried so much that I could see within
My clear teardrops that wouldn’t stop past ills and past dirt
So many tears I shed...tissue was no longer my friend
That’s when I reached out for an old beat up t-shirt

To wipe off my face and blow my nose
To get rid of all of that liquid
I cried so hard like a kid remembering
How he once had to go out and get a switch to whoop

His own butt with...yes... I ...did...call out to Him...(God)
To change my life and make me better.....faster....to get closer
To him..........stronger....cause I’m no longer able to do it by myself
I’m still a piece of work in progress and learning life lessons
Today...is...my... confession...
Today...I
Today I cried so hard....
Today

Do you remember...never forget

Do you remember when daddy used to braid your hair?
And do you remember how daddy...
Taught you how to ride your bike

Do you...remember how I taught you how to drive?
And son, do you remember how we used to
Write lyrics in the middle of...the living room
Do you remember?

And do you...remember you used to say pop's
I need to talk to you for a minute...yeah
Do you remember?

Do you remember how you were playing in the mud
And daddy came to clean you up...do you remember?
Never forget...
Baba loves you!

The Essence of Love
Lady when you come home
I'm gonna rub your back
No...you didn't even have to ask
You've been working hard all day long
Now it's time for you to relax

I heard it in your voice
That your day was heavy
Now...close your eyes
Shut your mind down
In a few minutes your bath water is ready

You see...it's exciting to keep
A woman happy with simplicity
Because when I love...love deeply
And it's organically grown

Just like my lyrics that don't
Miss from my dome because my mind
Is always on roam in stereo speaking...
With clarity...although you ain't trying to be
In your dreams you're gonna remember me

See the essence of love can be so
Hypnotic, symbolically I drop knowledge
Like graduates who never made it to college
And never got caught up with terms and perms...
Like poppin' collars

The essence of love
Should never be equated
With home many dollars are
Within a man's wallet!

The fact of the matter is this...
You have to appreciate what you've got
Can you all equal-stand what I'm saying
See...I'm a one woman's man
I cook up love so sweet that...
It's never bland
I want to make love near palm trees and golden sands
