New Perceptions

New Perceptions
 

My life today is from decisions once made
Resentment and Rejection has been long over-played

The secret to life, I've yet to find
Learned to speak the truth,
What's on my mind.

It is what it is; I've made an effort to be found,
Keep my head outa my ass, and my feet on the ground

To have many friends as never before
In some ways we all can relate
No one to judge, or even keep score

One of my newest friends is full of joy
She makes my heart flutter, better play it coy

Having her in my life today is ultimately cool
Don't do, what I used to do
Treat her with respect, don't act a fool

I'm not so accustomed to being so shy
I guess I’m intimidated to death, because she’s so fly ;)

I don't know if my heart is playing tricks
Does she feel the same way?
Or am I just bad with my picks

Either way don't lose her as a friend
My heart can be fixed, but not as easy to mend.

So many common interests, that we share
Many of the same likes
Lots more conversations to soon be paired

This girl is so special, sparkling eyes of brown
her smile itself, lifts me off the ground!

My mind twists things, could it be what it is
Can't trust my feelings they've been wrong before
Do I have a shot, or is it none of my biz

Take it slow; build a relationship that will last
Something usually skipped, don't relive the past


Arggg... why can't i get her outa my mind
Writing this corny poetry
Prettiest of smiles no need for refine.

One day at a time, let God run the show,
Things will work out, this I know!

Words




WORDS
 
So many words just floating around,
like spectres on the prowl.
Pick a handful and see what's there,
Slowly open the fingers son none will escape.
The one that gets away may be the one you want.

Make sentences out of the floating words:
paragraphs, essays, and books. The
choices are unlimited: the words are free.
If there is one you do not want--
turn it loose.
It may be the one I need.

Now It Doesn't Matter


 
 
Now It Doesn't Matter
                                    
An orb of iridescent light
striding off into the dark of night
Glances down at the spots on the
ebony cloak it has donned tonight.    

Some specks of cosmic dust is all,
so small as not to matter.
No time to pause and flick them off,
It will have to wait til later.

Each insignificant little speck,
in it's own elliptical path, felt
smug in thinking it the leader.
The atmosphere around their world
neglected for so long
was to be their biggest downfall
The cloak is shook, the specks are gone.
Now it doesn't matter.

Yoda's word for the day

Yoda's word for the day

Calm is the way of the force,
peace is the way of it is,
always in motion, completing its course,
perfection is the goal of this spirit.
 
Learning its will, waiting until
the force speaks, the mind is but an ear,
looking not back, but forward, be still,
for your ally is here, do not fear,
love is the way of it, always one is harmony.
 
Together are they, do you not see?
Can they walk together unless they agree?
Use the force, take hold of your destiny.
Consider the force as the door to eternity.

Alpha Rhythm

Alpha Rhythm

As the two become one
Together counting every season
In a give and take relation
Living life to the maximum
Like dedicated musicians
We rehearse every session
With only one intention
To behold every reason
Love is the highest invitation
Much stronger than emotion
Much deeper than thee ocean
Nothing can top love's expression

A FRIEND IS FOREVER

A FRIEND IS FOREVER

A moment of silence, 
no need for
advertisement, 
a hand stretched forth,
without judgment of course. 

There is no
place for pride, 
where a friend resides,
some secrets are shared, 
to only those
ones who care. 

Love is the evidence, 
so we can not pretend this pre-tense, 
a movement of the soul,
each desiring to make each whole. 

Forgiveness is nothing new, 
this isbound to keep us true. 

A cry is never a surprise, 
when you realize your true prize,
that you have a friend, 
who loves without
end. How do you know who is your friend?

TIME will tell you, 
always. 

Truth comes out boldly, 
on any topic with friends, 
knowing that their secrets are kept inside. 

Lies appear when fear is present. 
True friends FEAR NOT, 
this is our evidence.

Times of the Essence

Time’s of the Essence

Concrete surroundings, completely entombed
Try to make it past, the impending doom

Nothing left but my thoughts
Time graciously given, not sought

Waiting for my freedom
Consuming the lack of wisdom

You’ve learned your lesson
Life’s not a simple session

It’s the price you pay
To sit in jail day after day

Think about your actions,
Your last main attractions

Or inmate for sure,
For now, but never more

Long Road

Long Road

Smell of freedom still in my mind
I’ll use this time to sit back & unwind

Certainly not visible what the future will hold
I know when I get out it’s sure to be cold

I missed my birthday & surely Halloween
But I’ll be home for the thanksgiving scene

It’s only September 12, some time to go
Use my time wisely, and got some writing to show

I talked to my mother, the first time in a while
She told me she missed me and that made me smile

Can’t wait to go to her & see new things
Have a mess of sodas and grub on some wings

QUEENS OF THE WORLD

QUEENS OF THE WORLD



"You bloom with the sun's rays,
And looks very cute,
The bees feed on you,
As you are very sweet.
 

You then goes to the ,
Deep hairs of a lady.
 

But,you die in the eve,
As your colour and you too fade.
 

You cute flowers,
you were the queens of the world,
Who rules this world,
Just a day !!"

THORNY SPELL OF NATURE

THORNY SPELL OF NATURE






What is this life?
Very fussy and hasty !
 

Human fails to splash-out,
With the astounding elegance of Nature !
 

What is this life ?
Very cruel and evil !
 

Human fails to lookafter ,
The Assets of the beloved Nature !
 

Alas..! Look at the destiny..!
Human are the devil ,
Who kills the Treasure of Nature,
Which gives Pleasure to them!
 

You Chirpy Nature,
I promise you,
I will make this Mankind,
Feel your fondness for them…!

Don't Worry

DON'T WORRY

"When it portly rains,
Don't worry!
 

Your Friend is there,
To hold your umbrella...!
 

When its late in the night,
Don't worry!
 

Your Buddy is there,
To show you a torch-light...!
 

When trouble troubles you,
Don't worry!
 

Your Mate is there,
To trouble the trouble...!
 

When someone makes you cry,
Don't worry!
 

Your Pal is there,
To wipe your tears...!
 

When anyone deny to lend you an ear,
Don't worry!
 

Your Comrade is there,
To care and share...!
 

When "Death" approaches you,
Don't worry!
 

Your Ally is there,
To make it "dead"...! "

The Kingpin



THE KINGPIN



Coming all to my golden ways,
Is your duty,
Not only in my kip-time,
But also in my day-time.


The golden sun rises daily,
But won't come at night. 
You always be in the sky,
To save and protect me.


You Kind Moon !
Don't forget to come towards me,
In my kip-time.

Dark Side


Dark Side

I hate the way you are, the way that you walk
Don’t need a reason to cut your tongue, prevent you to talk

I’m a mean mother you have no clue
I’ll bust up your mouth leave you barely to chew

You don’t know me, I’m not your friend.
My guns drawn, just around the bend

I’m the most feared foe of all
Break your knees, leave you to crawl

I’m the worst person to have around
I’ll cut off your fingers, let them lay on the ground

Just when you don’t expect anymore
I’ll slit you up, bleeding crimson on the floor

Don’t leave me a choice to mess with you
I’ll leave you in pain, and this is true

Dissect your brains, eat them like a cannibal
Can’t you see, I’m a ferocious animal

Take a minute before you judge
I’m the last person you’d want to nudge

I’ll come swinging back like a renegade
Just to cut you in half like a samurai blade.

Nothing Without You

 NOTHING WITHOUT YOU


My days without you,
Are passing clouds!

My nights without you,
Are demon’s skyscapes!

My dreams without you,
Are dusky evils!

My mind without you,
Is an anguish amnesia!

My life without you,
Is a devil’s paradise!

My ambition without you,
Is an impossible destination!

My age without you,
Is a miserable curse!

My friendship without you,
Is a sunken-ship!

On the whole,”me”without you,
Is “NOTHING”!"

Shadow Preacher

Shadow Preacher

I met this guy who I dubbed the “Shadow Preacher”
He was very wise and also a good teacher

He was one with God, the ultimate contender 

I Listen to his words, he was a smart mentor

He’s been down the road I’m about to travel
I heeded his wisdom, to help unravel

He showed me the choices in front of me
Exclaims “Take your time & choose wisely”

By the way time is on your side
Read some scriptures, and in God confide

Learn a great lesson, take it to heart
For jail is a dreaded place, you’ll soon depart

I always keep in mind the words of the preacher
After all he was just trying to be my teacher.

Endless Torture

Endless Torture

Stuck in a small room not knowing your future
Moved from place to place in a mindless torture

Friends you make along the way
Some set free to go on and play

Others put in dinghy  holes
Life ahead, full of plenty tolls

Rounding the next corner, you hope for the end
Just to find out you’ll be confined again

The corridors are all small and cold
The paint on the walls, over forty years old

Of to the final spot
Where given three hots and only a cot
After all, this will be your final plot

Psycho

Psycho

Sometimes I go a little ballistic
A couple notches past twisted, mad and sadistic

I swing my bat at the top of my game
Hit you in the head leave you, breathless in pain

Conscious and aware now, you reach for the phone
I break your are, feel the crack of the bone

I have to reason or shame for the attack
The room begins to spin and go black

My heart beats so hard, thumping and booming
My mind a blur, don’t know what I’m doing

Take out a knife and begin to slash
Crimson spills to the floor as I twist and thrash

Screw mind over matter, I’m crazy and psycho
The temperature of my blood, seventy below

I’ve turned into a cold blooded killer
Want to feel my wrath? Make it a thriller?

THE ROMANTIC VOICE

THE ROMANTIC VOICE


” Everyday,I wake up from siesta,
 Only after your cordial touch!


Everyday,I get into work,
 Only at your presence!


 My amusement lies nowhere,
 But on tip of your thumb!


Your warm touch on me,
 Makes you remit yourself!


You have rest on Sundays,
 But I work everyday,
 Just  for your recreation ”
 Told my tv-remote,
 To me in a romantic voice!"

Mom

Mom

I write this poem in acknowledgment of my mother
The one who will always show me love like no other

She’s always been there through thick & thin
Bloods thicker than water, no matter where you've been

When everyone leaves and turns their backs
It’s time to change your ways, time to switch tracks

Ma Dukes is the one who showed me the way
She gave me a second chance, to be here today

A mothers love is something special
It has no strings and is never conditional

Never forget that no matter what you do
Your mother will always be there, to comfort you

With out her, who knows where I’d be
She showed me the door, and gave me the key

Turn the page, start a new chapter
I look forward to her love every day after

Your mother is more than a friend
She’ll be there with you until the end

A different kind of love, the love of a mother
I hope my mom knows how much I love her

Dinners for Sinners

Dinners For Sinners

I wake up every morning at five thirty
Not because I’m grimy or dirty

But because the man yells chow
It’s not even food, but hell I’ll eat it now

Then after I eat I’ll go back to sleep
I wish I could do so for at least a week

Next time for I will wake, it not to be opposite a steak
But a shitty shank tray, with out even some cake

A little while longer, I sit, read and ponder
I wait to eat some more and let my mind wander

So here comes the last meal of the day
I wish the cooks to be fired, sent far away

For the food is utterly disgusting
Later to be on the toilet ass a busting

After sitting on the royal throne
I’ll try to go to sleep as I did once at home

This IS the life of an inmate
So value you life, don’t break your plate
