    Say It Ain't So Joe, Say It Ain't So

    Convolution's coming to the fore', with him 
    putting rumpettes "...in his Cabinet, Admin.".

    But, of cour', when we think the as backwards 
    crew's in our rearview, their rule reigns.

    The world knows they're every moment traitors 
    for e'er more, and ne'er were nothin' more.

    Colluding to collaborating with their destruction 
    of nation, cannibalizing the pieces,

    is treason too, it's not "stopping partisanship", 
    not "bringing a country together", not "healing",

    only hurting, 'I undo the wraps from my 
    wounded heart', "...we(e),...", are keeping it's

    broken pieces from falling apart with, 'covid's 
    gotta be stopped, gotta save quarter million lives',

    'Ossoff and Warnock need us to help GOTV, 
    donate, to win GA...

    Love insanity

    From the rising of the sun to the time it turns gold my mind gets flooded with her love.

    She's kind I can't afford to lose I'll stand every bruise for her not to lose,my love for her is high above.

    Glass-sounded seagull


         
        Heart-pounding depth clusters in me! I became an oldster child among you as a young man! I received the Universe as a gift sometime in my soul, the guilty fears of boundless torment-caught wounds are still racing! The throbbing chalices of my heart conceived in purple are often cut by invisible knives; there is still a jealous sadness in the trenches of my fallen chubby face - which is why I may and may deliberately stop in front of the walls of prejudice!
         
        If there are even my Fellow Fellows they will fight for me! Curious eyes with open, eloquent attention search and follow my peculiarities like a hesitant walnut gut: it embraces My Seed-Loneliness! As spokes, they will be honest, True-words: questions fog over my head circling uncertain! In uncertainty stretched in still space, I often just float weightlessly…

    Priceless Gem

    On the way to the other side
    When it is lost
    Carefully kept in cushion
    He looks for that.

    On the way to home, at the boat's front
    Under the bottom of the oven,
    under the bench of the room,
    in the sides of the house.

    Adolescence, and the youth have crossed
    Now the old age came.

    Nevertheless, he kept his mind in the hope
    One day he will find his lost priceless gem.

    Music


    MUSIC

    Come, 
    Let's move to the sounds.
    Let my lips paint  lyrics of  my love 
    On your skin.
    Let our breaths be in rhythm,
    As our groins make the perfect beats,
    And our lips tango.

    Add your voice to the melody,
    Let's beautify the earth
    With our sweet song.
    Let there be perfect harmony,
    Hold me tighter,
    As my hands play the keys on your chest.

    Stay close,
    Don't be shy.
    Play the strings in my shorts.

    It's ok,
    This guitar can be played with the tongue too.

    The tempo is rising, can you feel?
    Can hear the beats become faster?
    I think we are about hit the high note,
    Oh, it's  cumming.
    We are close to the edge,
    The world will soon listen 
    To the pitch of our song.
    Do you feel it?
    Do you!!
    We reach the edge,
    We just made...

    The man who died most happily in the World

     


    Then he was born
    To the poorest of the world
    Alone in a ragged torn
    All as the summer's cold

    He grew up
    With the down dawn in down
    His hand was crazed broken sup
    In the little corner of town

    Schools were free of him
    Churches were free of him
    His life, the light was dim
    And trashes where he dip

    In his front, a park was laid
    Loving birds were there, and then
    Though he tried all left vain
    He was there, longing pain

    Pain of hunger, he was aged
    Life in thunder, a bird who caged
    Searched for a ditch, hoping bread
    Then was bewitched, where he dead.

    In a perfect world.

    She was scattered across different hearts because she could not be contained. To each heart she held dear she gave away something special,a piece of herself. To one she told about the people only she saw and knew,her creations she called them. To another she showed how the sides of her mouth twitched when her smiles were not genuine.And yet to another,she displayed the prism of her being. Each one different,yet, equally loved.........

    GET OVER IT


    Over it I get, for I wanted to live!
    My head I hold up, in stand to conquer and be alive
    Behold I stand to stare fear in the face
    I mumble grumble, think be the person I cannot replace
    Beginning to heal thus the fear gasp in tame to survive.

    Get over it! For we are birthed to live
    Mental scourge in many heads of thou unspeak
    we could finally breath, thus perfect is nobody's life
    Not what calls you by 'em, but what you answer to in no panic
    Normal is no man! Let not else's words define you to live.

    Over it I get, for I wanted to live!
    Struggles; I never let 'em become my facial identity
    Tears, thoughts shackles in chain and I then hover they leave
    Days in cuffs of night, growling in previse of calamity
    Might static be dark; but sunny light it will receive.

    Get over it! For we are birthed to live
    Never not give in to stigma, brave be to choke...

    Listen

    " Listen or you'll lose it all, your ancestry, root, language and identity." — Mr I.A. Ajuzie 

     

    listen, please, all of you, for I won't speak twice !

    like a beggar's bowl placed for money, give me your ears for this advice

    I came to speak, for silence have eaten away our bones

    listen to the hollow of the empty tin can, thus our insides moans

     

    I came to tell you to have courage

    even if those possessing it do not get acquainted with old age

    but without enough of us dying, we'll come

    into this world as slaves and leave in slavery's bosom

     

    listen please and find your way home

    you've being lost for too long in this catacomb

    listen, it pains me that I write to you in another man's tongue

    that you forget home is not just a place but it exists in language and songs sung
