A Street With No Exit
Heartbreak has had me afraid to travel down side streets where the possibilities of love were parked close to the curbs of my heart I was afraid of another flat tire leaving me stranded on the roads of loneliness with no one ever stopping to give me that lift I needed to refuel the engine […]
Published – from the Public Journal of Literary Thought
My expression has been copyrighted by time. The greatest struggle I’ve had to face in my life has been finding a way to explore the many techniques of my own mind. I have visions no one else has but yet perhaps share in a different unique interpretation. And that’s what we are as poets: interpretations seeking […]
This Could Be Heaven
The clouds are combing the sky with the perfect radiance of blue; a clear blue that is shadowing down on this landscape of comfort. I am laying here, in the middle of this field of green watching the wind kiss the branches of time with a soft bliss. There is nothing on my mind except […]
A Poem With No Ending
Happiness is like a poem that never ends; it is the jazz splashing from the tears in eyes when the joy of a smile drowns the dampness of sadness; it is the tender touch of a kiss upon the forehead of synchronized heart from the smooth gentle lips of renewal when pain has drifted and […]

There Will Be Tears
You came to me in a wide open dream of reflection as on this day my mind has lost all direction as I am missing you. You know I saw you today; I saw you today/ in traffic driving young toddlers to daycare. I saw the delight in your eyes just being a mother and […]
Of Life’s Complexity
Inspired by The Poetry Of Tupac Shakur Those who accept simplicity have never walked on the same side of the street as me. They’ve never watched grown folks cry when hopes and dreams slowly die. They’ve never seen single mothers struggle or heard their cries around dinner time when food is scarce and not enough […]
Able
and ready to believe. As I sit and watch transient sunsets fade behind the fatigue skyline of a city, I remember the once proud façade of progress; the many years dedicated blending minds and educating hearts to become one focus and join hands in the togetherness of equality. Before I was born there were […]
Some Say Love…
“Written Before I Found Love Again” I still remember…love. I remember all the possible feelings of being cuddled in another’s arms; the soft caress of eyes interlocked for moments of eternity. I remember the aroma that lingers when love fills the air like the breath of a warm rain ready to shower the earth with […]
