Warmth of a fluffy blanket

What is it that I want to find before I lay my head to rest
Answering that question is hard for me to define
Raised without knowing what family is, I can only imagine
My first and most important thing is for understanding
Too many have turned...

The strength of mountains yet as soft as a teddy bear

THE STRENGTH OF MOUNTAINS YET AS SOFT AS

  A TEDDY BEAR

There have been many bad things to have happened to me
Having everything that has happened though gave strength
Even if people don't want to understand what I do

Supper

Be still the breeze coming through the dead trees. Unbridled unforgiving, A night was Christy Niven.
So many on a block. I give none that's free.
Kindred sarcasm.
Standing tall.
The cock...

Sunlight clearing

On top of the street is rising.
I whisper a prayer for the dying.
Save these days of old. Save us from the brave and bold.
Saviors grand old time. Grave influenced strong. Flowers of quantum ride
religion dividing the world
Open your...

The Act Of Pillage

The act of pillage.
To rob and take the resources of others.
In times of war.
Enforced by greed.
And endorse to support the stealing,
Of more.
With a claim to be innocently victimized.
By those wishing to live peacefully.
Attempting to...

Is There A Heaven For A G?

Is there a place in heaven for me?

Is there a heaven for a G?

I’ve lived my life of sin I’m ready to be let in
I’ve left the hood
Im ready to do good

I ask you Father to remember me
I want to forget the memories

Find peace and...

Life After Death

Life after death.
This is something I’ve had to accept.

I know you think of me.
You heard me weep.

You heard me in heaven above.
So You sent me your grandson.

I wished for a little piece of you.
You sent me a reminder of you.

My...

Papi

I never met a man that didn’t like being called Papi.

White, black or brown they all like to hear the sound of Papi.

Let me kiss and caress your back while I whisper Papi.
Don’t try to stop me.

I’m taking in your scent that takes me over...

Freak

The lady is a freak.
She can’t stay out of the sheets.
When she steps out she’s a lady.
Dressed in the finest wear.
She likes it when people stare.
Is she wearing underwear?
Would you like a peak?
You freak!
That’s the way she speaks.

A Mother’s Wish

A Mother’s Wish

To be the best in all I do each and every day.
To guide you and show you love each and every way.
To be strong when times get tough.
To show you love is always enough.
That life is to live in peace and love.
And that...

I can hear the drums beating.

I hear the drums beating. 

Show me not your mournful life; it's all one empty dream. The soul is dead and slumbers. Everything is not what it seems. Your life is real, and the grave is not the goal. You return to the dust, and the grave becomes a...

And now it seems my pen has nothing more to...

Animae Matris

Os dias passam, lentos vão findar
O sol se ergue, luz a derramar
Curando-me do sono ao despertar
Como a vida segue, a lua vai brilhar

Ela vive, ama com intensidade
Cuida da filha, canta com verdade
Embora o tempo a leve na idade
Brilha na...
