so not cool

so much has happen

and so much news

pain drops like flys

and it captures and traps so much

and nothing is ever done despite

quiet time

and when you are not aware

of feelings then it just Arrives and peaks

on you and you have no clue why the indifference

that is looking back your way

what is your purpose with actions that leave a gap

to a human heart?

play the mood

what becomes of the young at heart

when the middle of time tugs at your heart and soul

which can make you feel older and wiser but also sad

so which one shall it be when the game of love

is dealt across the table and you can't counter

a heart that is still waiting on a sign as if the good year

blimp is gonna say take a chance??

lead me back to the rewind and take me to the middle

and lets see what is the finish line

so what becomes of that heart that never

went without pain in the first place

the way the ball bounces

things happen and tommorow is a new day

can't look in a broken mirror and expect

it to be fixed without some work

and that mind set is the way to be

many things find themselves toward us

and yet what is the gift when it has no wrapping?

looking for something significant and nothing is there

and yet the soul is begging for it all to matter

and what must i do and why must i go to this point?

you read me

words in my shoes and rules

in my soul and how i roar when the middle

of the road is down the path and no stop in sight

bring me another night and how does the meanings

jump off in front of thee?

you story tell my thoughts and you story tell my feelings

and yet so much is left to the uncertain of a moment

that never established a pattern of content

bring me back to the newer tommorow and

next week our pages turn as a golden chapter

of next text

What My Daddy Saw

He didn't see a President Obama

He didn't see a OJ Verdict of Not guilty

He didn't see a Black Supreme Court Jusice

He didn't see a world that welcomed a neighborhood

of all Races and Faces

He saw a Colored Water section which didn't

mean Kool Aid

He saw His Parents being told to obey Jim Crow and the laws

of the Land which wasn't that long ago

can you see the future any differently through those eyes?

when you stare at me

do you feel you are turning a point in time?

as your eyes touchdown on me what makes you

lose your being for those precious moments?

where can i intercept your reaction and bring it back

on the story of you and I?

i never had a mirror to the side or behind me

but the visual ray of you is felt through me

and yet face to face i never get a direct answer or response

and why is that again?

could it be that feelings and and the heart

are two seperate objects and one must feel one

to connect the other?

all in the song

was i ever shallow and quiet?

was I ever needed when i was asked to perform

said task but it turned out to be nothing more

than a token gesture to make it seem i was needed

a bill was passed to make me feel well certain

and then it was denied and then we went back to basics

shoes stayed un-tied as did souls and yet the song

gave me another lift which was needed from

all sides of the tracks

mini movie

all the film is about us

all the screen time and real time

brings so much excitement and themes

how will it all play itself out and what is the ending?

cut to the middle and what has happen to the character

and what is the storyline when you have no order?

how did it all begin?

what mattered in the start seemed to capture your heart

play it again if you understand it all

Monday, April 20, 2009

why you think

what made you do it that way

when the bow and tie was to go the other way

what made you believe in it being seen and heard

and played in that rhythm when it can go backwards

reading my way and then drinking water

smooth it all out

tune your soul on

and this relax is coming to a heart near you

each and my own

where have i been and what did i know

never lasted as long as it seemed in days

and waves gone by

so ask and i seek out questions

but never will i spent all my money

on dreams that are reflected on a small screen

turn it off and then come back to yourself

makes me never want to be caught in a fools

window of a broken Mirror

what will become and what will i want to do?

it is up to me and my mind and how it all plays itself out

good sleep

dreaming over and over

making choices and having the pure rest

never thinking about anything but quality

and the sentiments that come with ease

a good rest refreshes the senses and brings

light and closes out the maddness

no more tossing and turning

bring forth like scented flowers that whisper

spring and make light and never feels negative

angels capture those times and like a horse

it is a smooth ride into the sunset

where i been

Black man has seeen faces and places

Black man has reacted to time and it's conditions

Black Man has felt joy, hurt, anger, pain and happiness

Black Man has seen the good, bad,ugly and in-different

Black has felt liberation and mind control

Black Man has saluted the soul and the ground

which i have walked and learned to talk

pride, peaks and valleys

fresh and scented souls

and many eyes and voices that lead

my path today from yesterday into the

new wave of the future

toll free

call me and understand the message

as the minutes become hours and seconds

make us all the stranger then what becomes

as to what we present as our message of hope

and salvation?

when it all becomes taxing does our brains collectively

overflow or do we go back to the drawing board

and allow new textures inside?

1 800 and so on what is the meaning

when you need and want free

but you still can't get through

sentiment left

like perfume that goes away

like the sun that turns into darkness

is the theme of how feelings go from a moment

the highest of high and then turns into a lower

and then completely leaves the room

all the flowers in the world and clean

air can't always bring back the warmth

that went through us as the stars were

looking at us as we passed by

and the next theme leaves you wanting to

see what remains and then what?

oceans

float above the land

see the sky and the clear blue

above my soul as i set so calm

everything comes into view and it

makes the soul pure

when the day turns to night

and in between i feel the moon

and it touches down directly to the water

it is very blue and sits so innocent

bless it be me

as I sit and observe

the peace and tranquality

all the cool elements are in place

and the sounds of wave and Groove

move me and bring peace to my frame of mind

Tuesday, April 14, 2009

you came by

didn't say a word as you entered my heart

the moment of silence was so much to bare

and the way your eyes met mine I knew

that like the Moon and stars something was there

but like two soundless souls who can't hear beyond there

own silence everything was based on dare

whom the bells ring for shall have us care

what are you saying when you were words

are covered?

Monday, April 13, 2009

your place

in the mind of contol what do you want?

in the land of the free what shall you see?

many a moon has come and gone and your window

has left a tissue of tears and who knows whom

they were shed for,but dare i say where any for me?

makes me wonder where your heart goes when

you see no hope in sight and money is so tight

dare you to open your soul and see where the

angels are landing to make you feel the sentiments

and bring your inner being joy

Sunday, April 12, 2009

thanks on Easter

many moments to treasure

my soul is touched and blessed

my days and nights are fully enriched

many wonderful miracles and many

strong minded angels watch over me

where i seek out the best things in life

where i never hide my feelings

where i can truly rise above issues

that are of the moment but don't

make or break my faith

i can never look back and the new path

leads to a brighter reflection of the many

sacrifices for my being a Human

Grow up fast

youth was a moment in time when running

and dreaming were part of the landscape

and time seemed like a clock that would

always tick and tock your way forever

then you had to deal with reality and many

different acts played themselves out

and no time to shout at the wall or crawl

back into a time when you were of the innocence

no way in and no way out, because once you were

of a time you had to point and paint your own direction

into this circle of Life and create your own vision

Thursday, April 09, 2009

your ways

no matter how the clock ticks you want it your way

no matter how many days and nights are in a week

you still want to split the numbers like a pizza

and have it all diced and sliced your way

back and forth and so on and so forth

many cameras are setting up to capture your

sentiments for a worldwide crowd

but your screams are silent

and the facial expressions

are puzzling and hard to explain

what do you view as your true self again?

Wednesday, April 08, 2009

I don' know

where went you and why have you left me?

what happen to your soul and feelings of compassion?

use to be easy for you to act and be a certain way

so you say, but in default of your mind you went into

freezer mode and left me out in the cold

nothing left to hold and nothing left to believe in

it's a mess and you settle for making a picture

of yourself that painted things in a twisted light

good night on that note

Tuesday, April 07, 2009

what's your code

finding out what makes your system have numbers

finding a time and place that speaks to your points

what is your direct intent and what brings you to date?

in the files of order and life what makes you feel complete?

any combination of being secured and assuming you have it all together

what shall you then feel worthy of Salvaging?

in this day and age of technilogy what has mentally advanced your soul

and your salvation?

Monday, April 06, 2009

was I ever rich?

didn't have the money tha you wanted

and didn't have the kind of Loot that you needed to

feel comfortable with and it came and went

but did I ever have the right attitude and did I ever

showcase a warm soul that you could feel good about?

what was important and what was stated based on facts

mean what to the progression of nature?

dollars, dimes and divorce which all lead

to was anything ever Promised?

Sunday, April 05, 2009

in the day

when it all appears

like birds running side by side

in all there glory and color setting forth

the tempo of life and joy

warm hearts like the moon that shines

and all the stars in unison that circle and

point upward and leave a feeling of uplift

leaves and trees are alone grass is fresh

and neighbors are inviting our pressences

a Glass half full

never saw the bottom and never wanted

to drink with out tasting the food

funny but many a time it's easy to get

caught up in the trivia and not re-order

the right drink and a night going in

motions can make you dizzy and not just

low on mental rest and yet and we are

back to a empty soul and it's clear through

without Properly being given a cleaning

Missing Marvin Gaye

missing your words and your voice where Genius

was born and created together

why did your Father have to end your life and

leave so much horror on that particular time 25 years back?

it was a cruel joke so I thought but then Brother,Brother

was truly gone and not coming back in the flesh

but the Soul never has died and many gifted

preachers of Voice have come along

and echoed your vocals

but no one has captured the depth

that is and was you

Brothers and Sisters

have felt you since, and always will

Thursday, April 02, 2009

you acknowledge today

been digging a ditch in your mind

that you replay over and over again

a theme that runs counter to growth

a theme that mess up your soul from having

a dream in current themes and times

when did you forget your tommorow

that you once upon a time looked forward to?

who whispered ill will toward your heart

and who gave you the word to stay

in a mental down pour?

but finally you closed the door to the pain
