Big Wig

Descriptive terms

ate at our collective
societal “learns”,
whilst doing nowt
for terrible yearns....

An Artist's Art

An artist's art; only this time, the art is the artist
He pours his soul into creating this art
That has the power to please
The eyes, souls and hearts of men

His sweat and blood mix with the paint and clay
And so, he toils day and...

Until the heavens open

Until the heavens open


Under the morning light and my eyes peak open
Nobody is there beside me again
Tonights dream was the same as the last
I always seem to be searching for what I can't have
Long and hard I have been searching for...

The oak tree and little boy.

The oak tree and the little boy.

I sat down and spoke to the oak tree. We were young and green. We talked about growing things, the wind, water, and weather. As I grew older, the oak tree grew so high. Now it spoke of newer things: the clouds,...

Savage

She’s a savage she don’t take no mess.
She’s a savage.
She’s an animal in bed.

She’s a savage.
She’ll put a man to the test.


 She don’t take no mess.
She comes off like a sock to the chest.

Don’t test her strength.
She’s as strong as...

Intrusive Thoughts

we're together, we're such a cute couple
imagining myself alone is now a struggle
you take us on adventures from here to there
making plans for us together with flair
I can't imagine losing another year of my youth.

comedies are great...

Never

I've never known love
Except from Jesus above
Human beings all they do is lie
Except for Africa who does not make me cry
And doesn't make me want to stop staying alive
America and Americans have showed me vinegar instead of honey
And America...

Don't ask me to be wedlocked.

Don't ask me to be wedlocked.

Don't ask me to be wedlocked.
It will mitigate my love fever
and i'll feel the love,far.

Don't ask me to be wedlocked.
This is only an earthly bondage
which will keep you and me in a small cage.

We will...

There Hides a Key

When finality comes with the fair walkover,
It leaves no scope for the defeat to chase after.
When I ask thee
how to rally
And where hides the Key,
Thou stay on stonelike and look lively
such as to planning for the totality.

So I get it,...

Locust and Honey

A plastic world we been livin' in!
RIdin' a line between carcinogen,
and sweet as Saigon cinnamon.
Serotonin is what we're swimmin' in-

Easyrider,
nik, nik, nik, fire.

In a stable where Zoroastrians stand and admire!
The adoration of the...

Sunflower

Roots from a bud which blooms,
inside of aethereal hands.

A world found filled with darkness,
brighter than the light of lost lands.

The source of our anointed ancestors
who offer bandages for wounds that fester.

With no more cries of...

My Favourite Orkan

The other day I was online browsing for helium balloons
while listening to that Lesley Gore tune.

I don't want to

I consider daily

mammon

bronze coin
spinning
after being

  dropped,
'fore revealing heads or tails
sounds the same
in spite of which prevails.

a silver coin's reflection
can blind
though in darkness invisible,
a false light which fell
