Poetry: work in progress..couldn’t let it go

I can’t.
These midnight cold sweats
Are sweatin me like the death of me
my destiny
i need nothing but u next to me
im sorry
bound by imagery
both tightly and aggressively
ive forgotten me
this can’t be healthy

i know im gonna come back and finish this later on. the fractions of my thoughts be posted….i love my poetry in whatever form it comes to me

Poetry: Abstract Word Sex

I don’t want to make sense
I want your brain to fart from 12:01 ’til 11:50’10

I want to rhyme a few lines
Then leave rhythm behind for the next four
I want you to try to figure me out
Until your intellect just can’t take anymore

Chaotic rationalizations
Inducing scattered theorizations
Reducing brainiacs to victims of their own logic
Their obsession with the reward of right
Is borderline erotic
Like throughtgasms so insane
They’re borderline neurotic

So it is written, pleasure is tantric
And obvious intercourse isn’t that deep
So my art must be
Your B. your D. your S. and your M.
By defining a serious madness
So dominant you bow at my feet

I want your right eyebrow raised
Like your left just caught a fly
I want to see parts in your unibrow
Caused by wrinkles in your third eye

I want to see stink on your face
Because the stench of a baffled perception
Burned your nose hairs like mace

Loathe everything I stand for
Because you’ve fallen so madly in love
With my polygamist metaphors
I’m such a word whore

I like to leave you blinking
Like you just lost your contacts
And your struggle to correct your vision
Because im so abstract….

Love Poem: “The Breakup On Facebook”

Caveat: So one day, I read one of my friend’s status’ on Facebook and I joined in, the next thing you know, we had a break-up/ love poem gotta love freestyles.

Him: Lately I havent been inspired to write about anything. Last night I lye awake thinking bout many things. Like I would be a fool to let U walk out of my life, & how I would be even a bigger fool not to make U my wife. Im not perfect & never claimed to be. What I do know is that I want U to remain with me.

Her: U don’t nevuh miss ya water ’til ya well runs dry but still gonna have to deny u. Too many tears have dropped from eyes. These wounds still burn from all ya lies. It hurts me so much but for my own sanity, we need to say our good byes….

Him: another chance is all Im asking for please dont be so quick to shut the door. Baby I need u & now I see I wouldnt be complete without my Dee!

Him: Baby Talk to me this silence is killing me! I dont like the vibe when I come around that ur not feeling me!

Her: Stop dude this love not loving nobody but u has been killing me….but softly…..u have had so many chances, I’m all out of passes, and I ask that u not make this any harder than it already is . I’m in pain and I’m takin this shit out on the kids. I’m goin through things that the naked eye can’t see. Just promise you’ll do right if the most high ever blesses u with another me…

Him: another you is not what I want! Im miserable without you I cant front. Your face your touch your love is all that I need. without out it my heart will just bleed!

Her: Silence is golden because it can speak so loud and the vibe is off cuz we’re under a dark cloud. Overstand that I can’t complete you until I complete me time will tell if this was meant to be. But if u love me be my friend. We need to blossom as individuals. That’s the only way we can mend..

Her: Overstand once again that u r not without my love. This love is divine from that dude up above. Step out of the physical for a minute my love exists in more than just my touch. Its gonna be rough but we gotta knock this shyt down and build from the ground up….

Him: I hear what your saying I feel what your saying! But I swear if I see with another im going to kill both of you & I am not playing!

Her: Wow I thought u loved me if u did, you’d wanna see me happy but from u saying u slaying me if another makes me smile. I gotta think about that for a while. Loooks like u lovin yaself more. U don’t love me, u just in love with what I stand for…..

Him: Your right I do love what you stand for! But I know Mr rights only gonna be right for a minute & all thats gonna change as soon as he gets in it. & I’ll be damn if I stand around & watch another abuse you, It’s that & the fear that I will forever loose you

Her: Ooooowwweeeeee boo u know how to fix it up but my jaw hit the floor too many times and I’m pickin it up. I’m no longer falling for illusions so don’t jump to the conclusion that my mr right will change and start abusing. I had a good teacher in u my friend the days of u playing the mind games in your most recent response have to an end

Him:  allright fuck it I quit! what time you not goin be home so I can get my shit! I need to know cus im movin in with my little bro.

Her: Y curse I thought u loved me and I don’t need to be here when u come. Just shoot me a text when u done….I ain’t arguin no more. Imma just let it be. Lock the bottom lock behind you and leave my key…

Him: Its cool I’ll leave but know its not goin be that easy to get rid of me! I dont wanna argue either or want to fight! but umm can I come over later my brothers having company tonight! I promise I’ll keep my hands to myself cus I see you’ve officialy put our love on the shelf!

Her: I don’t think that would be a healthy situation cuz when I c u, my panties still get that tingling sensation u can’t spend the night ’til I can seperate the love from the love makin…u think u slick. U know u ain’t gotta touch me for me to hop on and mangle that dddiii….

Him: damn I guess ur hip to all my game but I would love to get one more night of you screaming my name! I would love to feel your nails run across my skin & I would love for you to condition my chin! Im sorry just got caught up in the passion! Just think about it baby thats all Im asking!

Her: Sorry boo but i’m hip to that game too. One more night of unadulterated touches and you’ll have me right back in ya clutches. Let me chill for a while ’til I’m strong enough to fuck you and leave the money on the table. But I ain’t conditioning shyt until I’m able….

Him: I can respect that! damn I taught you well! maybe this will workout for the best still it’s to early to tell! Just know that u have my heart & Im not looking for a replacement until then dont forget me & lock our memories away in the basement! I love you!

Her: Aawww lil tink tink that was so sweet enuff to make me ponder lettin u sweep me off my feet but not so much that it made me relapse. Thanks for understanding and allowing me to fallback….

Him: Your a good girl I can only respect your wishes, you gave me some food for thought now I have to do the dishes! Goodbye my love until I hold you again, I know now that we must focus on being friends!

Love Poetry Somewhat: He Left

And…

He just left
No word not a good-bye
Not a warning of any sort

He just

Left

Leaving me to look into glassy eyes
Searching for the soul that once was

Bigger than soul itself

Untouched by indoctrinated izms
Unmoved by hypnotic illusions
Unbroken by attempts of oppression
He stood for something
Leading me to fall for
Everything about him
So much that
You saw nothing but him in my glow
He was my sun and he just left

No long drawn out breakup
No breaking it to me gently
No I love’s but…
No “It’s not you, it’s me’s”
No explanations
No confrontations
Just his exploding emancipation
And his roaming is unknown….

He Just

Left

Flooded

I knew there was a poem dying to be written
Then Skip posted your pic
They all began to reminisce
And I realized,
It was you trying to be remembered

They dug deep into their memoirs
Chatting up good times
Quoting your punchlines
Like they pulled from the same reservoir
Like you were destined to be remembered
Because now here you are
Khary,
Flooding minds with memories
Praying that somehow they’d inspire me
To write your poetry
In hopes that your lyrics
May flood their forever

I’m flattered

I thought I’d never
Get a chance to redeem you
After that night when I dreamed you
Only to wake up and scream for you
Supreme balancement is treasure
As your spirit arrives on your anniversary
Allowing me to sing for you

“As they reminisce over you my god…”

I’m flooded

Overwhelmed with emotion
Because in the midst of their own chaos
Your soul is painted in their virtual reality
Pieces of pictures depicted so vividly
That a stranger could come
And view you so perfectly

And become flooded

Overcome with laughter
And sheer admiration
Only to leave these pages
With aspirations of a leaving a legacy
Of being remembered so beautifully
Wondering if their stories
Would leave strangers
Wishing they had known them

We thank you

For leaving us flooded
With your sweet memory….

“Writer’s Block”

There are letters in my head
Forming words
Swimming around
Anxiously awaiting anything resembling lyricism or the like
Be it blue, black, or red colors
Drawing them on white paper
For them to be interpreted as perfectly abstract
Or vocal chords belting them into therapeutic existence
Praying for remembrance after their deed is done

But

They’re stuck.

Caged in the chaos of
Too many subject matters
Uncontrolled emotions
And some sort of creative dyslexia
Debilitating their stanza

All they wanted was form.

Fuck. Their. Life

Word Whore or Word Fiend?

Ok so I know I love words. I love how different lyricist and poets play with them.

I’m a fuckin’ word weirdo,lol I can be completely unmoved by something and then I will hear or read one line of the lyric and stalk that shit for the longest. I’ve bought whole albums just because of one phrase. I dunno….whore or fiend? you be the judge…

Here are a few of my favorities:

Note: I will not post the lyrics of another poet unless I know them personally but I WILL however, direct you to their links.

Amir Sulaiman I swear this has GOT to be one of my favorite poets. I can’t figure out what it is about his style that leaves me stuck on stupid but I’m definitely an addict for his word. Check him out if you wanna day ‘damn’

Saul Williams What else can I say, just go read his lyrics….wow!

Ok. I don’t want to start quoting shit right now because it’s late but you WILL get enough of me…..SEE YA LAYTUH FOR NOW…

Poetry: A poet in the making

Someone asked me to write a bio before and I drew a blank. Picture that, a poet drawing a blank when someone asks them to write. I honestly didn’t know what to write about myself. So I took myself back to why I started writing poetry and I couldn’t really think of a reason. Crazy right? This shit just came to me. I remember sitting on a bus on my way to school. It was winter and snowing out. I’m a 9 yr old at this time and poetry came to me.

 

the trees in mid-winter
look how they stand
lined along the horizon
beautiful in hand

*dontstealmyshitlolyouknowitshotright*

That’s how poetry came to me. Through snow covered trees. I had poetry before I had puberty and I loved it before I even know what love was…..
