The Charming Fire       “The Charming Fire” 
  
Come warm up in the charming fire… 
That fire that is within me… 
That fire that I have been  
holding with sheer intensity.  
Feel the fire of my heart melt the  
iced up form that is hiding within you. 
We both can not deny that there  
is love between you and I, 
 if we said the opposite of  
what we feel, but that would be a lie.  
So let’s combine our heat  
for the rest of our lives. 
Let’s not let this boiling  
water inside ever cool. 
Come warm up in the charming fire… 
Let’s hide underneath the  
covers of the sheets and  
play hide and seek. 
But what I will find once I find  
you is the nakedness of you, the  
 openness of your lips below for  
me to taste it’s ebb and flow.

      “Ethereal”       “Ethereal” 
 
 
Could you be celestial… 
 
So heavenly that my eyes are seeing things. 
 
This can’t be what I have been waiting for 
all this time and it was right in front of my 
eyes. 
 
Ethereal… 
 
Yes you are exceptionally delicate and lovely 
at the same time. 
 
Like a flower way atop the mountain that is 
never to be touched, but only to be seen. 
 
I am enchanted by the way you flow, 
the way your hair seems to go with the wind, 
your voice does something to me… 
 
Ethereal… 
All you lovers take a look at this painting of 
beauty that has come to life and existence. 
 
Twist me and turn me into your mindless lover 
I won’t stir up trouble or complain, you are 
my babe of wonder that only my heart can 
explain.

      Black skin be free       Black skin be free… 
 
Be free to walk the streets, be free to not fear 
 
White men, 
Black men, 
military and the police 
 
Black skin be free, to love the person of color you see 
 
No to be scrutinized by other races, 
other cultures, 
and same color couples. 
 
Black skin be free, to not be profiled so viscously. 
 
Whether it be the clothes that I wear, 
The style or the color of my hair, 
The way in which I am portrayed 
by the way I sound, speak or act. 
 
Black skin be free 
To roam the earth without the barriers of racism, 
vengeance and foolishness be given birth. 
 
Black skin be free 
Be free from being discriminated against 
because the shade God gave us. 
 
Those that are not this beautiful mocha make 
it seem we have a choice of the skin we are in.

      “Today we lost a voice”       “Today we lost a voice” 
 
 
Today we lost a voice… 
A voice of courage, 
a voice of equality, 
a voice of personal pain and 
the pain of a race, of women, 
of people across the globe.. 
 
Today we lost a poetess… 
A poetess’s words struck, 
A poetess’s words shook foundations, 
A poetess’s words that reached nations, 
A poetess that spoke on the personal experience, 
a poetess that engaged the mind to think, wonder. 
and awe for the lives of others and herself. 
 
 
Today we lost a voice… 
 
A voice that encouraged others to speak, 
A voice that made so many weep, 
A voice that carried so may dreams, 
images and realities to the light  from the dark. 
 
How do we pay homage to one so full of spark. 
Now God has her in his grasp to hear all the 
lovely words releas...  | 
  
  
  
       
      “Burned our fires”       “Burned our fires” 
The smoke was clearing… 
 
A figure crept through. 
 
I thought it was a demon but it was an angel 
emerging passed my fires of hurt and pain. 
 
The angel that truly loves me. 
 
Someone told me along time ago 
“No one should ever you!” 
and they also said that 
“You are the giver of destruction!” 
 
That’s why before this angel came in my 
life and held me tight I was so dismayed. 
 
The fires burned blissfully for many 
years a figure crept through. 
 
I thought that it was another 
angel but it was a demon. 
 
The demon that never loved me, 
piercing through my happiness 
and joy. 
 
Someone told me not so long ago 
“You should be loved in anyway and manner 
that it can be given!” and they also said 
“I i...  | 
  
  
  
       
      “Swim”       “Swim” 
 
 
I Look Upon THE Quiet Pond, Surrounded BY Large Whispering Trees. 
I Hear THE Wind Blow Through Their Leaves, Musically Inclined IT 
Fills MY Mind, With A Sweetness OF Harmony. I Jump IN This Lagoon 
Shaded Color Pond AS I Also SEE THE Peaceful Beauty Underneath. 
IT'S Filled With SO ANY Wondrous Things, Different Types OF 
Species AND THE SUN HOW Shunned Through This Other Universe WAS 
Mystical, Thrilling. I Reach THE Surface AND AS I Start TO Glide 
Across THE Surface I Think TO Myself IN Wonder OF THE Moment AND 
SAY "Life IS NOT SO Grim" FOR Throughout ALL THE Pain AND JOY 
I'VE Faced, GOD HAS Provided ME TO Still Talk, Walk, Think, AND 
TO Have THE Ability TO Swim. Fate Could Have Destroyed ME IN AN 
Instant AT ANY Time OF MY Past IN Life AND Even UP TO This 
Moment. That'S WHY I SAY Life Does NOT Look SO Grim.

      “Dynamics”       “Dynamics” 
All the world sees 
All the world feels, 
 
The dynamics of God’s 
creation the human being. 
 
We feel all sorts of emotions, 
We go through all sorts of motions 
And yet as we are the same 
we are different. 
 
Some of us are light, 
Some of us are darkness, 
Some of are a mere glimmer 
And some of us are not 
even a sparkle.

      “Arise poet arise“         
“Arise poet arise“ 
 
 
 
As bright as the moon lit night. 
 
I’ve fallen into a trance from the bursting beautiful bright eyes that 
are staring back at me this night. 
 
My heart floods and flows with emotions that carry special notions. 
 
As our lips pass softly together there arises a love that can not be measured. 
 
The words of a poet never dies… 
 
The message of a poet ceases… 
 
The mind of a poet increases whether 
the moon is high or the sun is nigh. 
 
The words of that flow are simply 
beautiful, that can not be denied. 
Sometimes carrying the highlights and 
woes of the world on our shoulder. 
 
Inspiring the greatest minds, the leaders of the world, those in professional field, to the average man & woman to even the valiant soldier.
