Take Me Away



Take me away,

Planes, trains, boats and cars
Take me away above the clouds
Take me where hearts beat loud
Where peace is among the crowd
Total equality with no man to bow

Take me away,

Bicycle, unicorn and happy feet
Take me to the woman of my dream
Where her love is softer then cream
Our spirit unite for the same team
With affection to stay erect like a beam

Take me away,

Paper plane, rubber ban and toy cars
Take me away above this hard life
Above foes ready to stab with a knife
Help me find my deserving better half
To change the world as my wife
One day, my wish will come true
My first message in a bottle,
You will take me away with you

Petals So Rare


Petals so rare

Inseparable as a pair
You meant more then the air
Love use to be in your stare
Seeing you now belongs to a dare
With flowers being so rare
While you're here, in my dream
Touch me there
Make me feel you still care

Fish Bones



Fish Bones

Mama, where has time gone?
"He went to the fish market, son"
Mama, when will he be done?
"When he finds fish without bones
Why such a sad tone, my son?"
It's because I feel all alone
Papa went to see Grandma
And Grand-pa at the Market,
never came back with none
How far is the fish market?
Is it near the playground zone?
Mama, tomorrow, we will go
and buy fish without bones

Autumn Leaf


My veins, my vision and my heart have gone weak
Due to jealousy spewing from my neighbor's beak
Who else would mail letters labeled: "To an old Freak"
Spray paints my car with: "Shame has reached a new peak"

Because a lady, half my age, visits me three times a week
Her name is Autumn, she is colorful when she speaks
A sweet papaya who shares stories to turn me into a geek
A breeze rifling through my leafs, solitude was tweaked

Heaven is in her voice when she laughs or softly speaks
At the dinner table we sit for homework and ice cream on a stick
Her lip gloss sent feeds my arousal in the darkness to seek
She whispers in her sleep "I am so happy, a secret not to leak"

Little did we both know, my envelopes were laced with poison for weeks
drifting slowly, "I'll miss you" is kissed on Autumn's cheek
"My body for the neighbor to keep,
my love lives on"

Signed: An Old Freak

Naomi's lips



Naomi's lips

You are worth more
then fake tits, girl
Appreciate your lips
if your hair just curls
Watching your hips
Makes my mind swirls

I Declare War


I declare war,
I declare war on the hands of time
Poetry books without a single rhyme
Liars who always say they are fine
Every luxury car ad without traffic line
The jury who freed Justice for his crime

I declare war on,
The waitress asking me a tip for a lime
Circus Clowns who stopped speaking in mime
The Slave Master who sold my lover for a dime
Whoever added resilience in my wine
On all dreams that can never be mine

I declare war on myself,
the Lime responsible for the previous lines 

being unfulfilled, due to wasting fine time,
drinking wine and writing dime poetry rhymes

Fear & I


Fear & I

You were wrong
"I am the light"
You were strong
I stayed bright
You paused like a song
I was ready to fight.

Caution Tape


Unity as a reality must soon bridge this gape
If life is lived in boundary of a caution tape
How are we to lead a nation back to shape?
Blue blood divides the land of colored apes
Haiti looks to the sky for The Man's red cape
Father gives her resources to be gang raped
Will art awake us from our colonial forced nape?

Earl Lucifer's daughter


Good morning world
last night I met a girl
More beautiful then
dreams, diamonds or pearls
Her shy smile, dark skin
made my head turn
With her full rainbow lips
she spoke of peace,
freedom and love
So amazing that my heart twirled
I saw joy kissing happiness
In her almond brown eyes
I swear that my toes curled
"Can't wait to meet her family"
We'll drive south to see her father
Some man by the name of Earl
So long single life world
loneliness, sorry we had to part
I've fallen for daddy's girl
