an old notepad…

A thoughtful piece.


Read Between the Minds




pages full
of
broken words
some
never spoken
others
discarded
as
foolish
dreams
some
secrets
have been pressed
like
roses
between
the pages
left there
to
dry
and
die
never to be read
by
anyone
mere
remnants
of
what could have been
or
should have been
but
never
became
there are some words
even
if found
lying around
would be
seen
like
the scribblings
of
a child
who never learned
to
color
within the lines
a maverick
of
society
whose
offerings
of
words
without question
shall be
ignored

love making…

A great incite.


Read Between the Minds




an act of passion
driven by biology
according to some
but communion to lovers
sharing their soul’s sweetest wine

ain’t got time to meditate…

A great thought.


Read Between the Minds




now
i
certainly appreciate
all
the heartfelt
words-to-the-wise
we’ve
been having
about
the benefits
of
daily contemplation
learning
to
deliberate
on
the moment
and
not
project
into
the future
or
woller
in
yesterday’s mud
but
when you’re
just trying
to
survive
the day
then
pausing
to
smell the roses
ain’t
an option
nor
is there
any respite
to
look
towards
tomorrow
tomorrow
isn’t a consideration
and
when you don’t
look
to tomorrow
hope
becomes
a useless
vocabulary word

The truth is sad, but not be overlooked as just another police verses black event. Enough is enough.

i’ve

my pet

as

he will now

travel with me

and

no matter

and

there’ll be

no pet restrictions

and

no

additional fees

when

he joins me

on board

even

if

it’s an embraer 145

tho

i must admit

it was

a tight fit

during

the last flight

until

caesar

those two passengers

were

annoying

anyway

but

not only does

he travel

with me

can reside

in

my pet free apartment complex

according

the license

i received

from

a certified doctor

documenting my absolute

right

to have caesar

oh there were

a few

de fly (fly on me head)…

I don’t know if you heard this? Biden’s merchandizing manager, with that now famous fly in mind, began making flyswatters with a political message. Can’t remember what it was.

Anyway, they made 35,000 selling at ten bucks apiece. They sold out immediately.

fly in me face
fly on me head
fly in me face
fly on me head
well i hope de fly don’t come out and land on me head tonight
well i went out to de debate
and i’m feelin’ a little spaced
and i sit down at the stage desk and
a fly lands on me head
well de fly come down from de farm
you see he wait just off stage
when he hear that i’m telling a lot of bull
de fly land on me head
fly on me head
fly on me head
well i hope de fly he don’t come out
and land on me head tonight
de fly he like foul things
all the children know that
what i need to know from de lord
is how you get de truth from liars
they say liars never win
and truth will show all sins

sympathetic resonance…

If only more people could have the hearts of poets.

and

wine

both flowing

ink

fills the pages

as

wine

fills the minds

two young poets

listening

to

miles

kind of blue

free form verses

swaying

on the page

to

changing tempos

rocking

back and forth

then

soaring

in

solos

incongruent

syllables

exposing

hidden emotions

from

their souls

pain

anger

moments

of

all revealed

a few stanzas

abstruse omissions…

Nothing has changed. It needs to for our country to fulfill its promise.


Read Between the Minds




i am
the empty space
between
enslavement
and
freedom
the chasms
between
what
was
promised
and
what came
to
pass
foolish dreams
from
an ignored
lover
of
freedom
who sees
nothing more
than
redefined moments
of
forgotten stories
of
the true founders
of
this nation
hidden
between
the printed lines
of
history books
written
in
the invisible blood
of
those enslaved
whose
undiscovered
mass graves
are concealed
by
the blank spaces
between
the lines
of
lies
your eyes
should tread
carefully
through
those spaces
so
as not
to
disturb
the
dead
for
seeing
what lies
beneath
the surface
of
this nation’s myths
could
make you
shed
tears
of
shame

nyctophobia…

He does it again. With words and thoughts I could not conjure.


Read Between the Minds




count
the heartbeats
passing
before you
as if
each
beat
is the sound
of
their footsteps
feel
their pulse
in
the blinks
of
their eyes
the
flow of their existence
in
their facial
postures
and
their demise
in
the silence
of
night
that darkness
where
you’re
unable
to
sleep
for
fear
of
your own death
now i lay me
down
to sleep

how mcdonald’s et al destroyed the world…

Another great piece.

I truly wish he would have cause to write this.


Read Between the Minds




everything’s
fast food
what we
eat
read
and
how we
contemplate
the world
around us
it’s easy
to do
ipads
and
watches
deliver
takeout
predigested news
served up
with
side dishes
of
calorie laden
commercials
for
our consumption
carefully conceived
and
cooked up
by
monetizing
algorithmic
corporate chefs

and

since
our minds
are not feed
anything
to chew on
the
political
and
marketing lies
are
easily digested
by
democracy’s
couch potatoes
who
without
any
physical effort
on their part
not
even
the consumption
of
weight loss pills
still manage
to
lose
significant portions
of
their freedom
