Laboring in love—

Gift wrapping service to give

A Merry Christmas…

He’s the greatest gift…

Let’s share this gift given us—

Happy birthday Christ:-

The crucifixion of Christ is one thing

But the “X-ing out” of him is another;

Heaven’s water breaks—

The cistern-cradle is filled

With God’s flowing love…

It is said that God so loved the world

He gave it his son, Jesus Christ

Oppression cocooned,

Liberty is transforming---

Wings getting ready:-

Butterflying grace,

Metamorphosing freedom,

Seeks her liberty:-

Caterpillaring,

I'm cocooning oppression;

Freedom is coming:-

This morning’s freedom fixed mind

Woke up to the realization that fighting

In all of life there’s one equanimity;

We’re all of God’s created humanity.

Here in the darkness

Of the ebon night

I lay erect in ecstasy

And the fullness

Her solitude

Had nothing

To do

With her

femininity

Nor hued skin…

In sad beauty

Silence deposited itself

In the bank of mind;

Thoughts as ...

It has been said

Life is like a camera.

A camera

With its film and negatives

They say age is nothing

but a number.

Why is mine such a painful

bummer?

Like chickens in a coop

We laid warm eggs of hope

Nights passed over and mornings c...

Sharing awareness,

I am just an old griot

Rapping my own way:-

Slicing through the snow

Gliding over black oppression—

Soaring to freedom:-

MY EBON GIFT

You’re black and comely;

God’s beauty born unto me.

Giving God ...

You’re not the future…

You’re the now…leading us on—

Footprinting the way:-

Boldly I stand here---

Emancipation canvassed;

Grounded in freedom:-

Oppression waning...

Black Power Movement waxing---

Skies of justice glow:-

Building liberty...

Pillaring voting power...

Raising up justice...

Voting overflows…

Black Power’s pot heating up…

Oppression melting…

Black lives still matter…

Oppression slowly dying…

Liberty breathing…

Searching the word book—

No, not the dictionary;

Seeking God’s wisdom:-

Gun violence rising…

Mental illness is waxing;

Concerns are waning:-
