Gorilla Pimp

He preys on all of her wrongs
Holds a magnifying glass up to all of her flaws
She gave to you all of herself
Every dream, Every wish
Her life turned into your life
Ignoring all of the strife
Manipulated and full of fear
Her heart turned so...

If I Had Kissed You In The Garden

Sun-dappled leaves, a secret space,
Laughter and whispers, a stolen embrace.
A blush on your cheeks, a question in your eyes,
A moment suspended, beneath endless skies.

But courage then faltered, a word left unsaid,
The silence stretched...

I Demand Justice For Ryan Gainer Death

I demand Justice,
For the world's hatred, a blight,
Justice for the innocent's tragic plight,
Where evil prospers in the night,
Like shadows dark, obscuring light.

I demand Justice,
For black lives' suffering, deep and stark,
The...

Returned to earth with a different physical feature
Vestigial tail protuding normal coccyx extension
Arrived resembling Martian monkey man creature

Brought back to earth transportable crypt

Lost senses

We were supposed to be the post to coast along life's shore,
But what do I know because I couldn't hold ya close enough to be my core,
In spite of the separation of our once glory ride we adored graciously,
Still I wish you the best while I...

To Whom It May Concern

I am writing you today for help
Tried so many times to leave
Only to get thrown into another shelf
The physical I can tolerate
Mom raised a soldier
The mental is what I can no longer mediate
My mind is growing weaker
A smile I can no longer...

My Pen

The tongue has the power of life and death
The world is not losing color
Our view of the world is dimming
What is not expressed will be depressed
To hold anger in is poison
Expressing it violently can lead to extermination
There needs to be a...

It's In Your Eyes

It’s in Your Eyes
By Nancy Rodriquez

The love I find in you it’s in your eyes,
You are like a fine wine being sipped and drawn into the palate with grace,
It was easier to understand how much you meant to me without explaining as to why ,
As...

Artwork

The sunset,
A collection of color,
A painting of thought.
Pastel purples bruise the sea in warmth,
Layers of orange and wispy white as if painted in cotton.
Yellow sparks of inspiration blend through deep red beauty....

Feast

Ocean waves transform to music through the ears,
The sunset an original painting for the eyes.
Cold wind washes the body in peace,
The salty air a feast for the mind....

Cruel Intentions

Cruelty amongst humanity knows no boundaries
The web it weaves can ensnare the utmost virtuous
Taunting the innocent with opportune dismay
Empowering the guilty with trials less arduous

It poaches the confidence of assaulted daughters
And...

A thank an owl!

Nothing is good today!

 My coffee pot wont work my head really hurts and the dog just barks all night at the moon!

 Yet, I refuse to just quit my achievements still exist!
My owl said who's second?

 I'm multi talented!
Remain in a league all...

To do the right thing!

I use to go why me?
Some others have it easy!
We all have situations!
Mine is no less basic!
Then I realized, what if others stated not my business! While people get robbed and others seek crime I refuse to not use what's mine!

 All of us...
