Racism, hate: Evil’s best friends. Don’t let it consume you!

TruthContinue reading “‘Truth’”
liars seek truth‒
falsifying a life
without any light
manipulation...their due
cutting it on cue
‒without noticing
the coming dues
their belief‒
trying to convince you
all they do
true, true, true
backing them‒
there are few
their spots change
sending you to the loo
oh! what to do?
‒without cursing them, too
truth is truth
existing
no half truths
‒it's either all true
or just makings
of a waterloo
When politics blinds your truth!

DisillusionmentContinue reading “‘Disillusionment’”
she stood there shaking
what have I done‒
causing this imagined awakening
‒have I forsaken
forgive me, Lord†
ease this hating
in her silence
her heart opened
‒a simple token
what truly lived
in this here maiden
she watched them all
as the stones began to fall
‒to her knees
no longer...she felt tall
over and over
coming at her skin‒
little hard balls
then a sudden stall
stopped...silence
a mere moment
she recalled
the dust settled
her tightly closed eyes opened
upon her dress‒
tiny red splattered drops dribbled
her pain...tiny tickles
what...a blink before‒
it seemed a fable
her fear lifted‒
was this a gift
her sins shifting
to ultimate's forgiveness
‒this she did not know
but the sudden stop
‒she felt her heart unfold
cast your stone‒
if clean...your bones
she heard the voice
then the made choice
as all around
stone after stone
hit...not her
but the ground
silence remained
she still knelt‒
in blood stains
as shifting of feet
the sudden in retreat
silence...not daring
to lift her head
then a shadow overcame the red
a hand reached out
get up child
a mere whisper without shout
strength from Him† came
as her legs rose
‒her eyes did the same
His† light dried her tears
all became so clear‒
her heart felt clean
in His† eyes...she seen‒
truth's unending scene
her life redeemed
it wasn't a dream
‒pure and serene
forever...trust in Him†
she proclaimed
for the Lord†...by her side
remained
You’ve got to ask God and stop complaining!

Places ShackledContinue reading “‘Places Shackled’”
He† asked not to forsaken Him†
yet gives a choice‒
free-will to accept within
analogies, theological preachings
leads only to leeching
the wrong, deceitful teaching
‒a constant arguing of bitching
leaves hungry souls
waiting, anticipating
in places allowing shackling
He's† proven enough
for everyone's love
He† doesn't have to do rough
‒that's the enemy's stuff
but He'll† get tough
when love's smothered in crud
to push buttons
lead people to suffering
‒He's† testing
seeing who's believing
wondering how long
for hearts in changing‒
faith begins ringing
amazing to watch‒
tickings of the cock
deceptions...coming in hot
‒evil's little bot
it'll be easy to come in‒
without a knock
as you wage wars
on a dot
careful now‒
He† understands wow
hears every prayer in loud
evil things...He† does allow
waiting for the choice
a hungry heart's voice
in free-will...the bow
‒without asking how!
Men miss the point of what makes a woman special!

Looking WithinContinue reading “‘Looking Within’”
it's not to your treasures
you are bound
look carefully around‒
is your heart sound
quantity of possessions
do you measure
your worth
all your journey's identities‒
do you take pleasure
now...from your birth
is that the quality
your only creation
all your roads traveled
of life‒
are you still baffled
wishing‒
you were still
in the cradle
wishing‒
on no experiences
to tattle
is it no more a mystery
your back there history
for every lesson
comes a reason
for the next season
round and round
goes the merry-go-round
'til no more
you see the clown
never lost, never found
stuck in between
that round and round
not seeing the lesson
not rightfully sound
'til it comes from within
the stuck
always in begin
again and again
so sad at the end
feeling still in begin
You are NOT a girl! You ARE a woman!

Tradition's BackfireContinue reading “‘Tradition’s Backfire’”
they said
you're just a girl‒
this is a man's world
messing with my head
holding me back
in their dizzy twirl
I tried to push ahead
but esteem
they made me lack
on my butt‒
they'd just slap
ignoring my educated snap
putting me in dead
all those words
they said
but I don't go down like that
my mind...I discovered
sound
so much world
all around‒
I bounced back
learned a few facts
I got over their curse
learned new adverbs
set it all up‒
for a reverse
when they came at me
in their attacks
they said
you can't put it out
like that
you're too bold...too negative
you...no one will respect
they'll drop you
as a contact
‒see you as an 'old crab'
much more than that‒
from all sides
came their attack
my professional swirl‒
downgraded to just a girl
my mothering cap‒
smashed to the ground
with a raging man-ego trap
stripping me
of those I gave birth
my christian-wife-giving perk‒
crushed into dirt
as hands
around my throat...grasped
my daughtering burst
my sistering worth‒
taken, stripped, clasped
as man-driven pride submersed
fist to head‒
stripped 'til I was dead
I couldn't go down like that
my mind‒
put in the back
‒lost from sound
so much world
all around‒
on a different
leveling track
I bounced back
‒met their crap with crap
in sexual immortality‒
I did flirt
around edges of freak
I certainly did skirt
‒screaming, yelling, cursing
I explored my worse
from the depths of dead
completely lost in my head
over and over rolling‒
those words they said
‒all those lies fed
I did the dread‒
around every corner
I did tread
but I don't go down
like that
my mind...I discovered
much more sound
so much world
all around‒
I fell in their trap
but it's just fact
I bounced back
into a dim light
I emerged
ready...able
put up
my hard-core fight
as the light
moved to bright‒
breaking their holding-down trap
unveiling their curse
‒I moved into rebirth
learning my worth
what truly
sets my turf
I am a woman
not just a girl
my looks‒
just a perk
on my body‒
let your eyes flirt
‒all this framework
aids my intelligence
(the likes of brilliance)
yes...on my face
a slight smirk
out...I reemerged
this butt‒
yes, try and slap
see if I don't call out
your crap
this mind‒
try to trap
I'll come at you‒
out of this cave
like a bat
yes, it's like that
don't like it‒
down...sit back
sap
for I've learned my worth
bridges...I'll easily burn
‒say it like it is
this right‒
I've readily earned
and...I don't go down
just like that
my mind...I know
clearly...positively
sound
all this world
all around‒
I am bound
for, indeed, I bounce back
with the resistance of a cat
it's just fact
you...I'll come straight at
I'm 'all' that
and...that's just that!
Ladies: ‘Lean In’ and take the lead!

Internal ExposureContinue reading “‘Internal Exposure’”
get it out–
that ingrained lesson
in your head
stop! suppressing it–
instead...shout
you are not dead
don't worry about
green or red–
stand out
too many...already bled
for you to shrivel in dread
don't quiver...beg
you do have a choice–
redefine what's been fed
rewire that inside voice
female verses male–
look who's already led
down, down, down–
the bottom of a cell
–on the surface
why do we still tread
slogans they spread
find a good man
–what happens
after I thee wed–
dreams...cave-on in
while man elevates in win
pretty little mommy
on lists of craig–
might as well list
held back little mommy
–tuck her...nice and sweet
in her bed
advancement's common thread–
smart like daddy
t-shirts read
propaganda of j.c. penny
–analogies deeply bred
she's just a girly
words...over and over
said
follow the creed
every line...in the 'reg'
–you're a 'she'
be a teacher in ed
or a nurse for ned
forget going into med
forget running for the leg
or even a pres
–don't you see
for this–
you need a third leg
words...buried in the head
advancing...common avoidance
leaving girls...in dread
hanging their intelligence
on a peg
I'll say it...what other's said
get out of your head
go out...lead
forget the man-ego clout
don't be misled
don't listen to internal's doubt
bypass labels...bitch, bossy
–ambition is not damnation!
but a reclassification...recondition
of old worn, torn traditions
here's some jubilation:
it's okay...go red
save green
for those babies
you wean
you can do both
let that...in...soak!
it's okay to be a queen!
expose that internal dread
in front of the crowd–
be in the lead
–hire someone to clean
forget all those slogans said–
you're a woman–
removed from bygone's dead
be heard...seen
never again
hiding behind
tradition's thread
let another make that bed–
dawn those heels
paint those lips red
rewrite those unwritten regs
that wrongly imposed
man-ego driven creed
Is race going to continue to rule your life?

Hands to HoldContinue reading “‘Hands to Hold’”
you come at me
you're not discrete
bold...unsure
maybe there's a gun in my hand
maybe I've some contraband
or maybe I just like hands in pocket
or wearing my earphones in my car
so I can answer this here phone
for this car absent of bluetooth–
protecting me and you
or maybe you're angry–
having a bad day
I pass your way
through your veins runs hate
so I become your play
I'm just like you‒
generation after generation
passed through
without obligations
to changing the view
–it all seems like voodoo
we both–
not really having a clue
‒taking it upon ourselves
get off that dusty shelf
change the view
so our kids
won't suffer too
maybe I do have a gun
–anger raging in stun
do you see inside of me
my hard history
maybe my hand shakes
though you can't see
–you're so angry
not seeing what's at stake
maybe I did some drugs–
stopping the pain
keeping from going insane
but soothing I didn't gain
all looks like a game
emotions adding to more pain
then you come along
thinking I'm a thug
you want to cut me down‒
stump me like a bug
without knowing the deal at home
why I'm here–
a gun...all alone
maybe don't yell
talk...love–
let it swell
instead of jail–
lead my soul to help
without making me
hate myself
I, too, want peace
between you and me
maybe instead of arrogance‒
show understanding
compassion
I don't want a free ride
just a reason...inside
not to cry
I am tough
I've got muscles, tats
my life has been rough
–crazy and all that
it doesn't mean
I'm just stuff
to pluck
a handshake
a hug
–that just might be
enough
I'm a human being
I don't mean to sting
just a little bitter
please, your anger–
could you reconsider
look at me for me
God's† child
making my way...like you
through the miles
–the past is gone
this is now
together–
we can make it all
worth while
if we just remain calm–
approach each other
in mild
without death coming in fowl
Cloth yourself in God’s Word!

stay
vulgar, ignorance
cast away
live in light’s way
voices come
protect your way

hypocrisy is hypocrisy
it’s not your matinée
to sway
only you‒
your individual attaché
you need to obey
in faith
bathe
no one can penetrate
when God’s† your main deejay
your test
may cause some weight
‒keep the faith
you’re a work of clay

a life
building résumé
it’s okay
‒be a little risqué
your faith

don’t adhere

a bit of pompeii
delay‒
your thanksgiving day
the only entrée

of words Jesus†
had to say
faith
can never be passé
when you’re open‒
faith
your main forté
We’re all various shades of brown!

Colorless BirdsContinue reading “‘Colorless Birds’”
a failed adhesion
‒mixed hypercritical damnation
of all the hysteria‒
the misunderstood mystery
hundreds of years
still shed tears
still darkened fears
what was fought
so hard for
it doesn't seem
we came too far
even living
under the same stars
color‒
keeps bringing us back
‒justice lacked
white...black
heresy in a broken-down shack
tackle the government
‒greed's endowment
keeping
that stupid war's enlightenment
taking it's very commitment
back to days of judgment
where are the colorless birds
‒haven't you heard
that war ended
in a blood-soaked swirl
leaving this mixed-race girl
in a confused swirl
‒still an uneven world
lost in racial twirls
we're still paying tokens
‒what was broken
thought to be fixed
‒all should be mixed
still backwards
the clock tics
years and years
suffered pain
what did we gain
‒it's just insane
still playing
this black-white game
didn't king die
for a simple dream
to live in a time
where there is no color
just people
where each other
given no time to smother
no matter skin color
you're still my sister, my brother
honoring a man's life
doesn't give war the right
to bury the dream
‒words he openly screamed
leave hatred...difference behind
to each other
be kind
it's just time
stop banking on race
look into each other's face
see beauty's lace
of God's† amazing grace
Are you willing to ignore?
