Like Thomas I Must See
Imperfect
Remember when we found that imperfect spot by the trees;
with the hive of bees?
Immature happy to be away from the crowd;
they are way too loud.
Warped were we; thinking crowds missed our plans.
Looking sketchy, holding hands.
Intimate plans turned to dud,
little brother threw a rock with a thud!
Angry bees shamed us away, their secrets for birds alone.
That imperfect spot by the trees, began a love still known.

All or Nothing!
handed a package with instructions, “You all in?”
naw, can’t. “In or you got nothin’.”
head down, then I got nothin’ then.
another day, another friend.
“Going over to the college, wanna come?”
head tilted to the side feeling dumb.
honest, I don’t know how to start?
“No worries friend, I’ll help that part.”
“Gotta world focus, to see change,
remove one from a demographic cage.”
followed friendly footsteps to lead me to a road,
not easy though, not easy though.
Finals told percentages of growth
gave my life some kind of hope.
Remember all or nothing as I lead.
My stronger voice, a clear feed.
I give all in my life, wanting to be something;
knowing its all or nothing.

Day Dreams Made Real

sweet dreams concrete grasped

#Write Photo: Soul Inside Out
Furious rage pushed soul out seeking solace elsewhere
Lost, looking through past for weapons to bring self back
Blackout memories become illuminated with prayer
As faith rises, ancestors are released for support
Found the soul wandering in a pool of doubt
God demanded reentry, the ecclesiastical court
Eased is the fury that tortured the soul
Put out by pure belief in a destined path
Wondrous is God’s power of decontrol
