Endless stars fill the night sky,
Dazzling– bewitching– stars.
Stars that could stun
With a simple twinkle.
Many nights spent stargazing.

At the end of the
day, what’s an “United States”
without unity?

You want to be great?
Don’t try to IMPRESS the rest
Just EXPRESS yourself.

A girl told me once
Not to call her “sexy”.
She said its kind of insulting in
But after she broke it down for me
—kicking her knowledge—

Separated myself from
An uncivilized civilization
And traveled into the wild
Where I can hug trees and see pea
I am a wild man,

Loyalty, a lost art.
To remain together
Even if you are worlds apart.
Focused support that’s unshaken
Can’t be broken, can’t be taken.

I’m trying to stay
Optimistic about this
“happy ending” thing

It was a noisy night;
All of the little critters,
And woodland creatures
Had to be out —I wouldn’t be surp
If I saw Bambi out here, again.

It’s ironic that you crave “beauty
Because if you sleep to gain more
Then rest assured that you need sl
—I’ve only seen such loveliness in
The way you look at me with your s

Having thoughts of you again–
Of us—
Me doing whatever may have you,
As long as I have you
Because you got me.

You’re a museum..
Your heart is your most valuable e
It’s your crown jewel
Guarded and locked down
Like a fortress.

You call me your
Knight in shining armor
Because after your DARKEST day
I manage to BRIGHTEN your nigh
You call me your

Compeers surround,
I’m filled with tourist.
If I hit the ground
Would I make a sound?
Here,

A week in the desert
And all water will taste flavored.
If you never had a tv,
All shows would be your favorite.
You may not get what you’ve just r

Minds, brighter than the sun
Reading poetry for fun
We’re the poets
We’re romantics

Let your pen be your
Knife, and paper be your wrist
Bleed onto the page

I’m rich in knowledge.
I have a conscious mind.
I’m aware of how my people became
Slaves and Christians at the same
Going from kings and queens

People are starting to think
You’re allergic to being away from
Because you’re all I talk about.
No one can tell me you’re not wort

Women..
Such a fine speciment;
So wise and divine.
Oh, and you can’t forget about the
Making the sun go throw his shades

Careful what you wish
for... Paradise-paradox
may be what’s in store

I’ve set sail into the
Deep dark blue.
I’m a Navy seal
With no crew.
Expatriated.

Failure!
It’s not until we face our fears,
And in turn
Not be afraid to fail,
Do we achieve success!

It’s a quixotic night, and twain h
I’m betting you’re as GRACEFUL
I’m just waiting for you to confir
—but on your way over
you STUMBLE

Step outside your comfort zone..
now you’re one of us.
Doesn’t It feel glorious?
Our two Worlds collided
When we survived it

Since when does a thought not coun
It’s a shame to have so many thoug
But lack the ability to express th
Or to just let someone bury them a
Wasting a brain is starving every

Man...
What a night.
I did this and tried that
I’m everything tonight.
Whoa...

Today I’m not on a mission
just embracing positive vibrations
and simply enjoying my existence
on this gracious planet that the s

A meteor shower floods the air
Tearing through the skies
Ripping clouds in half.
Even atheist prithe save thy..
That’s when we arrive

What is “black privilege”?
My “brutha”, you have no privilege
You have but Right.
Yes, you heard me right
You have but one.

What is poetry,
When the poet is Curiosity
In the presence of the “kool kat”
Who has his pen;
Rendering him speechless,

I realize I’m the last person
You wanna hear from right now;
After all, I’ve brought nothing
To your world, but rain–
Knowing the ink on the page

You make me feel like dreams do co
in it.
I really want you..
So, I really want you to want me.
I want you to really want me.

I’m not perfect– I’m no saint
And I won’t claim to be.
I only strive to be the best that
I don’t believe in violence
Which made boxing kinda odd–

When I hold you,
I don’t want to let go.
When our eyes meet,
I never want to look away.
Underneath the moonlight,

Days like this
Inexplicably pissed,
Maybe not pissed
But on edge no less.
So please forgive me

If fate sees things my way
And the heavens smile upon me
We’ll cross paths again one day
I’d surrender my sight to see her
An unsatisfying glimpse and then s
