Leaving home
Ike E Davis May 2020
She's packing her things she's
Leaving now
She'll be back
She always finds a way
Even though she left
I can't make it
Without you
You're kinda
My thing
And to be alone now
Is too much for my brain


We've held hands like every day
And I stare in your eyes
She's getting in the car
And she doesn't even
Wave good bye
Can it be the start
At an ending so bad
I've never really been
Alone
I thought that I'd be sad
But the suns up tomorrow
And there's no clouds to see
How bout' that I have a day to me
I'm home

NeoLove
Ike E Davis Apr 2020
I wanna touch
Your face
Ungloved
I wanna smell your breath
With you mask
Off
It is more treacherous
Than a storming sea
It is more dangerous than a
Waring Family


No one knows
None are out and about
I would not risk so much
For just hanging out
We are both pale
No matter what the light
It is the pallor of loneliness
Only you do I trust
We now have a pact


Against those we were to guard.


I undress and
Close the door

Death of Mom
Ike E Davis Apr 2020
It
Was
a
relief
She
Is not suffering now
Photo's and memories
Shoved in closet shelves
Pictures of us
And of dead relatives
How many forgotten
Graves?
To sea, with her remains
Even if it
Is
An extra charge?
To the coast
We'll dump her ourselves
Lots of dumping
To be done
Loads of stuffed toys
Old plates,
Refrigerator magnets
Which
I hate
My Mother looked so young
In these old photos
What year was that?
I ask ....
No one knows
Ya see it's just me
My family has gone
And I'm here cleaning
Up

More horse than man
Ike E Davis Mar 2020
Subjected to restrictions
Expected to carry the line
All I need is a saddle
A bit so I can't complain.
Lights on
Lights off
Time of clocks
Is gone
Early to bed
Stubborn at rise
I rub the sleep
From my eyes
Potato in the ***
Fresh water still runs
When there is no water
There will be no need
For guns
I'll respond
I promise
To yeaee
And
Halt
And other threats
Don't hurt anyone
Else
Head down I take my lap
Freedom
At what cost
Ike E Davis Mar 2020
Oh she's all I need
I know she knows
And I hope she won't
Leave me when she
See's


(Chorus)


I may be ordinary now
I vanish in a crowd
In time I'll burn
Like a flame
I won't be ordinary
One day
,,,
She must
move on
She's out lived her stay
It's far better
now
Since we've parted
ways
We won't end at goodbye
Since we can't be friends
I can't be ordinary
If you think this must end
(Chorus)
One more  chance
I'll dumb down to stay
I'd rather give my all now
To be more than
Ordi...
nary !

Love is in the crowd
Ike E Davis Feb 2020
There was little chance of all of us
Being here today
We are all so busy running
Our devices and our cars
Yet here we are
Look around to one another
Say hello
Ask
Are you well
Its genuine
To be kind
It's being part of humankind
Aren't you glad you came down?
Love
is in the crowd
No need for Pointing fingers
He
she
they
may not be
The same
Who am I
To pass out labels
So don't label me
Walk a mile in these shoes
You'll never throw rocks
If glass houses you
Can you feel it now
Love is in the crowd
Love is in
The crowd
Give to others
Like you hope
to
Receive
The true gift is
Giving
the crowd
Might agree
Can we all agree somehow
That love
That love
That love
Is in the crowd

Mr.Lucky
Ike E Davis Feb 2020
Ladies and Gentlemen
Lift your heads
Mr. Lucky is with us again
He's had ten thousand shots to his name
And not a one has addled his brain
He's ****** down a truck load of beer
And yet look at him
Standing there
ready to cheer
Oh he's quite a man
Just ask him
he'll tell you so
Why
he's a saint among sinners
Drinking wine ,
that's sanctimanial
He'll give you the shirt off his back
And tell everyone how kind he was
While committing the act
Oh I must say
he's surely Lucky
Having drank such mass amounts of
*****
And not having so much as a
Pooch
A Lucky man Indeed
Mr. Person....al....ity
just add
Alcohol
you'll see
He'll slur his words and get
Overly loud
He'll be the only real man
In the crowd
he will cheat on his wife and ignore his daughter
all for another glass of
liquid manure
Mr. Lucky indeed,  
Pay your tab when you leave.

Nitemare
Ike E Davis Feb 2020
Our President assassinated
Beale Airforce base obliterated
This was the main radar station for western
States United
A plague released
Not from nature
It was engineered
and developed
Star force a joke?
It was designed to keep our
Satellites protected.
Yet computer viruse pulled
Them from orbits projected
Now leaderless no communication
I could here jets and bombs go off
At the nearest military installation
Water shut off
Electricity gone
The cities began to devour themselves
No need for a bomb
I hoped my daughter could get home
Just to be safe with me and mom
I had a gun.
Would I use it?
To protect my family
I would save them and not
Lose it
Locals begin to cannibalize other houses and
Resources
when you only have one gun
You learn to hide and use gorilla warfare
Courses
We managed many did not
We wander a bit to keep our enemies
From finding us out.
Boy I wish I hadn't been naive
I would **** for fresh water
And a bit of cheese
We have become like RATS

Sobriety
Ike E Davis Feb 2020
Everything matters
These words their meanings
And the hope behind them
Friendship its bond
And the love it brings
Your health my health
Mental and physical
Our loved ones
Your loved ones
Really anyone you may deal with
These things matter
Strength to take on each
Individual day
To find brightness on
The dark days
Little things,
Matter
You matter, to me
Five years of sobriety
Five years of honest hard work
After that call me
We won't go get a drink
But I will make you
Dinner.
If you feel that I matter

Someone please rise
Ike E Davis Jan 2020
Someone
Someone
Pick a side
Sitting there watching your wheat grow
Why don't you rise?
Amber waves mean Nothing now
Nothing to me
The banners have never been so beaten
Bullet holes mar the star field
It means nothing to  me now
You should rise
You should rise
In unity we
Once stood majestic mountain high
Stand now
Oh okay
Lean on me
It's only a store bought word
Liberty
Rise no more against
The corporate machine
Your voice is lost
Against the social media screen
I have no brother
I have no border
I have no one
To help me see
A future where we can
Live in harmony
Oh rise one more time
Face the setting sun
For I fear tomorrow
This land has none

Choices
Ike E Davis Jan 2020
You have made your choice
You could have run
Now you will fall where you stand
Your last decision was bad
You  and your ilk thought you were
Safe
Abandoning me and my race
I offered friendship and unity
You preferred isolation and
Supremacy
Now you beg?
With folded hands?
Do you think
I give a ****?
As was once told to me
Do you think my heart is full of charity?
Walls will burn
Territories change hands
Your people will be driven from this land
Only your women and children will leave
The warriors souls belong to me
There will be no next time to talk
No parlay
May the carrion dine where you lay.

Being small
Ike E Davis Jan 2020
I am small
It is easier being small
I don't take up much space
I don't look anyone in their face
I am not one who confronts
I cower and scurry like a runt
I turn the other cheek
Like a religious freak
I don't mind being small
I'm fine with it but, will I crawl?
How much weight can these shoulders take
When the last straw hits i won't break
I realize that this world is a small pond
I live here among everyone hiding in the fronds
For the sake of others I must grow
To give strength to all from my soul
We as a collective are too important
To not become grand is self indulgent
When I "became " I'm going supernova
Going for broke superman move over
I'll be a guiding light for all to see
You should grow too please join me

X and O
Ike E Davis Jan 2020
Alright folks stay with me now
They are the X'es
We are the O's
We operate on a
Place called the public board
The X'es occupy these amount of squares
The O's have always taken the area over there
I point this out but most bystanders
Really don't care
Now, it's a bigger board cut up in a certain way
The X's control these parts until a certain date
Then a majority vote will turn those spots to O's
There are those inbetween but, they cant swing the vote
Back at square one,  
stay with me now everyone
We are just learning the ground rules
And back to front the shell game goes
Who were the X'es and who are the O's?
And those in the middle are often gray
But our side is right
Upon the board we play

Going to AK (song lyrics)
Ike E Davis Dec 2019
She was free traveling
From LA
Up the west coast
To the AK
There was no hurry
No real plan
Visiting friends
On route to
Ketchikan


(Chorus)


Along the coast lines
Most of the time
The dreamy sunsets
The waves talking in ryhme
Bonfires at night
Strong breeze all day
While on her journey to the AK


She left nothing behind
Just her mother's memories
She never thought of her father
While on escapes like these
She never looked back
Just moved constantly
To the  last frontier
Called  the AK


(Chorus)
Along the coast line
Most of the time
The dreamy sunsets
The waves talking in ryhm
Bonfires at night
A strong breeze all day
Along her journey to the AK


When she arrived
She went to my cafe
That's when I met
Her in the AK


She told me about the coast lines
(Remaing chorus)
Most of the time
The dreamy sunsets
The waves talking in ryhm
The bonfires at night
The strong breezes at day
And her arrival at the AK

Ike E Davis Dec 2019
Every one is passing through
Like Numbers on a calculator
Your number will come up soon
More likely now than later
The Boss is sitting in a chair
Rubbing his temples
His seat maybe high now
But too easily topples
Slamming fist against a locker
Him and his wife are over
***** or Bill's it's either one or the other
They'll burn through the newbies
Let them work the hours
And those disgruntled old boots
Just complain to one another
You're just passing through
They'll find some one to take your place
Your badge will be passed to a brand new face
Here's a small thank you
a little money
Every month
It gets taxed subtracted and hardly worth
The life and time you gave up
Figure it out
it's not too late
Don't become someone everyone hates
Keep your sanity
Save a soul
That of another
Or your own

Crazy talk
Ike E Davis Dec 2019
Have you ever heard the babbling of a brook
The sound of rushing water against a rock
The chittering of animals when a predator is near
The crashing of rifles dropped in fear
A clock ticking and ticking louder each tock
A countdown to an explosion never to
Erupt
Buzzing insects near ones ear
It is the idea of the blood letting that causes the mind to slip gears
Children crying
Cats meowing
Dogs howling
The asylum at night
The elderly in nursing homes begging for family or
to be set free from the walls
With no where to go they'd wander the streets
A distant memory
guides their feet
They will find no home
But silence at last
on the empty street
The humm of street lights
begin
But the illuminating light
Does not mean
the end

She never grew older
Ike E Davis Nov 2019
She'll never grow older than
That day
I'll never need my space
Or turn her away
I'll never kiss her lips
Or gaze deep in her eyes
Again.


We won't walk hand in hand
I'll never see her smile
at my
Dad jokes
I'll never
smell her hair
Or trip over her ****
Eat her gourmet cooking
Or her pork and beans


She'll never realize
Her dreams


Our daughters will cry
At the drop of her name
I'll never look at her side of
The bed
the same
There will be nights
When her warmth isn't there
And I'll wish she'd whisper
Sweet words in my ear
But I've inherited
the wind
It's been quite  a loss
To have lightening in a bottle
To just have
it suddenly
lost
I'll never be the same
And she'll never
age
a day
Nov 2019 · 88
She's important (to me)
Ike E Davis Nov 2019
She's important to me
So you know
I think a lot about
Us being alone
When I kiss her
I feel good
Holding hands
When we walk
Just like lovers
Should
Sometimes I see her
Looking at me
Smiling
I smile back
She's important to me


You can take all your
Necessities
You can keep me
From the
Things I need
You can hold back
All my cash
You can take my
Internet
But don't take
Her I'm begging
Please
She's so
Important to me


Shes like sleep
Like the food I eat
Like hair
Clothes
Jethro tull
Pantera.
Heavy jazz
Shes important to me.

Before
Ike E Davis Nov 2019
Before I go
Please take from me
All the feelings
That you need
Don't hold back
For there's nothing left of me
Take what you need
Before I go.
Here's some light
When you can't find the way
Take some hope
When you bend your knee
to pray
Take some time
all the time you need
To make up for my leaving
Be brave
unlike me
Do what's right
And not what's
Easy
Stand for those
Who fear to fall
Be better than me
Please. take it all
Give until
you are but a shell
Let those who live
Remember you well
Take from me
So some small part
Remains
May you live
Many more years
By living strong
Without fear.

She' better without me
Ike E Davis Nov 2019
She's better without  me now
It took me a little while to see
Just how she's
Better without me
I gave
I sure gave alot
And I will
never
Get that back
But love is made that
Way. It's never something that's
To be repaid
I can make it too
I'm stronger now
From knowing when
We were through
I hope.  Really wish her the best
She a better person now
Since I flew the nest
Looking back just
Makes me feel weak
My stomach knots
And my heart just sinks
I am moving on
I
Am
Moving on
Alone
And it's ok
I can breathe
I can breathe
This way

Circle me
Ike E Davis Nov 2019
When we met that's when I knew
I'd start circling you
You're in my sights
Did you know
I was
Circling you
Round like a ring
A promise too
I knew i would
Circle you
I would circle you
You can
Start and circle back
Its never happened
But you changed that
You
Circled back
Circle me
Engulf devour
Take some and
Go back
You're  in my sights
Did you feel that
Did you stare back
If you circle me


         Want me


Circle me


        Take me


Circle me

Having it
Ike E Davis Nov 2019
What have I been
Sitting in
It is all over me
Such viscosity
What has
It all
Cost me
Wallowing
In it
Have you
Ever just
Heaving cried
With it
Bathed
Within it
Look at her
Then at him
Dripping from
Their
Very skin
I'm crying
In it
I'm crawling....through
But soon
Will hit that wall
And I'm fighting
Back not holding
To hope
I'm free from it
Most not
I'm free and it
Caught my heart

Jim Beam on ice
Cola with ***
Tequila shooters
I plan to get numb
Let me get some
Schnapps that hotdamn
I'm gonna keep going
Till I'm hammered man


Turn up the music
Start making alibis
Cause after tonight
I'm gonna make my goodbyes
Been nice knowing ya
But do me right
Give me ah

The next American poem
Ike E Davis Sep 2019
Grand intervention occurs when I sleep
The words are from a spiritual depth
The feelings engrossed, are steely ****
Driven by such I write in the dark
I have done it again the next great Poem
Epic creation I know it'll slay them
I finish the last line and adjust in bed
The journal on the floor to darkness I tread
Now awake I read the great work
And it sure reads different I feel like a ****
Yet i must not deprive anyone my latest masterpiece
So i humbly submit this poem at your feet

From here
Ike E Davis Sep 2019
Do you look out from where you stand
and shout out your decree?
Do you look
only
out
and not within
When making such a scene ?
Are there higher points that you could reach
Where the view is clearer still?
With new eyes you begin to see
How your perspective shapes your will.
Higher platues away from your phones
Things found in dusty books
When men of wisdom laid stepping stones
That not many of today have took
The thing about these paths are
They never end
There are millions of stones to be laid
Perhaps by your hand
Take that first step and let the journey begin.

Sides
Ike E Davis Sep 2019
Us and them
Divide and conquer
Right
But who holds the knife?
Who benefits?
Not you
Not me
Together
Yell it
Together
A house divided
Cannot stand
You can lean on me
I can reach out
to you
I don't care about your
Skin
Or where you've been
You are a citizen
That's where
we begin
United
Ike E Davis Aug 2019
He's a dirt bag an
A-hole
Tries to act like a
Navy seal or Evel Knievel
He's got a nice car
And cheap hair
He's got an angel
Next to his chair
What's she doing with a creep
Like him can't she see he's paper
Thin
He's plastic
He's a Ken doll
He ain't got no class at'all
Then why
Is she with that guy
If shed spend
just one
day
with me
Shed find out what she's mis-
sing
I'd treat her right
Cause
I got soul
hard as steel
I Ain't  plastic
I'm real
I'd be more classy
If she would ride with me
Why oh why
Is she with that guy

Give up
Ike E Davis Aug 2019
If I give up my guns
And the boogie man
Comes
How shall I defend
my life
I got married to
a she devil
And I hide under her apron
From the light
As fierce as she is
She alone can not
Face such horrors
Of the type
That I speak
Weak I maybe
And old become
These bones
But alone I can
Defend my keep
These weapons were made
To make all men the same
I will protect
My countrymen
My family
And friends
As long As I have
This gun in my hand
Never will I be a slave

Kassie's smile
Ike E Davis Jul 2019
Kassie don't smile
When your away
I'm being selfish
I want you to stay
I'm no good
No good
I'm not willing
to share
You you you got to stay
Leave your smile here


Memories years from now
You and me hanging out
Dancing close
you and me
Keep your smile when you leave
Just for me

Screw it I'm done (song)
Ike E Davis Jul 2019
If I start searchin'
I'm afraid of what i'll find
What if I find her
and she don't wanna be my....ine
I can't just walk away from that
I just can't start again
When you find your soul mate
And she just wants to be friends


***** it I'm done
***** it I'm done
***** it I'm done


I can see  her
Those ******* beautiful eyes
I can taste her
Even when my mouth is dry
Holding hands
Walking on a beach
I want her so bad
But she's outta reach


***** it I'm done

Could this be..?
Ike E Davis Jul 2019
I'm on trembling legs
With mind in the clouds
I'm in some kinda musical
I'm singing
out loud
It must be she's close to me
It must be her energy
I guess I'm finally
in love
I'm shouting out promises
I'm
holding down a job
Starting to grow up I guess
Could this
be ...
Love?
It must be when she's close to me
Its gotta be her energy
She's got a hold on me
Could this be,,

Ithogoths
Ike E Davis Jul 2019
ithogoths , molypogs disembodied frights

starlets and fairies bursting into flight

geneophobes miscreants black forms of mishapened blight

stereo's and boom boxes pounding in the back

spilled ***** and filthy toilets , overflowing ******'s with the ****** cakes all black

vampire women with blood on their lips shaking what God gave them

to attract the male imp

movement and swaying and drugs ingested ,espeacialy the ones that are cheap

smokey haze above the heads of thugs , ****** and creeps

points of dim lights from hand held go bots

the floor is damp from the sweat pouring off their ***'s

connecting with other degenerates in the filth

locking themselves in the bathrooms to **** and shoot up

to gyrate on and infiltrate daddys sweet thing

to mock the elders and spit on the kings good name

creating havok ,embracing darkness

its a generational thing

its dollar night for the grog

and all will have their fill

the goblins and the elves now enter

soon blood will spill

the knights of enclave will surround

the hollow jug

a spell of blessing light will flood the ***** floors

out scatter the ***** things now un-embraced

it's what they consider love

and some of the black forms are held fast

by the spell of steel shanks

all the whoos in whooville quiet in their boxes

now give thanks

cause once the spell of steel shanks is cast

the maddness ends at last

Adopted
Ike E Davis Jul 2019
He didn't know his birth mother
She was a pretty  young girl
She was ***** at seventeen
There is ugliness
In the world
The man was her uncle
What he did no one
Ever knew
The girl blamed it on some
Boy
Whom she said was cruel
She was kept locked away
Until the baby was due
A handsome baby boy
That was you
I love you,
Like
I need my soul
I couldn't imagine
Not having you
In the world
You are loved
As much as you
Were abandoned
You are my son
As sure as I'm your
Daddy
Your birth mother had a choice
And I'm so happy
With what
she decided
You may never know The truth
of how you were
Conceived
But none of that matters
Because
You are a son to me

Grave
Ike E Davis Jun 2019
When gravity breaks
And we
free
form
float
Inertia does not keep us
Pressed
Against
mother earth
One missstep
We shall hover
Like in space
But
with air
Time will continue To
tic
some may Struggle
mere inches
Above the ground
Then we need
Friends to strap us Down
It's days like these
We want to be birds
Untethered wings
Uncontrolled
Flight
But I'm talking
About motion halted
When
Gravity faulted

Shiny penny
Ike E Davis Jun 2019
That's a shiny penny
A glowing copper top
I should stop and
pick it up
Give it to my friend
Who means the world to me
It cost just a penny
But it's a pretty thing
I'll give it to my sweetheart
And make it to a ring

Offensive?
Ike E Davis May 2019
Do not confuse heritage and nationality.
Heritage is your family and racial background.
Nationality is the country you reside in ,
It is also what connects us as the third definition
Americans.

There once was love.
Ike E Davis Apr 2019
There once was love
Neither could deny
The rush of youth
The look In
A lovers eye
As time
Separates
The moon from
Orbit
So should some
Lovers
Be cut short
She could forgive him
For his sake and
Soul alone
She could forgive him
And beckon him
Home
Home
Oh home
But what's the
Sense to forgive him
Now
He'll never know
Just how being
Forgiven
Could be
There once was love
She could forgive him
And beckon him home
Oh home
Come home

Ike E Davis Mar 2019
The sun has just went down. I turn on my little light by my chair that throws a soft glare across my room
,its caused by my light Pointing at the reflective louvers of my blinds.
I have my window open a crack. Cool  fresh air is being pulled into the room by my little fan that is always set on quiet mode. The room has the perfect climate, cool dark cozy.
Funny how its normally just me. I guess not everyone likes cool. I just heard a school of geese fly over my house. It sounds like an airborne argument.
It also sounds amazing, especially  growing  up where I did hearing nothing but huge planes over head. With this perfect setting, there is still something missing, companionship.  I need a dog.

Shelter
Ike E Davis Feb 2019
Shelter yourself
To where you've
Abandoned
Hope
Better to ignore The pain
Than to bleed
Break a bone
It heals stronger
Break with a toxic
Person
Is loneliness
Better?
In time
All things are
Supposed to
Heal
Unless
The black rot
Of death and dying
Is enough to
Over whelm
Any hope
Of trying
And tears from
That are not worth
Crying
But don't deny
Yourself
The chance
Of trying
Believe
Believe
Belief can move
Mountains ...
Move mountain
Move

Target
Ike E Davis Feb 2019
I've been sad
I know we've all been sad
Sadness
I have no need for  
anymore
I want someone to blame
But blame
don't explain
Why
at the end of  the day
You can cry..
You deserve
to feel
But don't feel
You've earned
This pain
Forgive and forget
That's what those
Away from the scene
Say
Forgive and forget
To forgive
Is divine
I don't walk on water
But now I walk alone
And alone
Is no way
To be
We have the right
To be happy
Come and be
The change
The change you
Want to see.

Rings
Ike E Davis Jan 2019
You can ask for your ring back
It can signify your status
There are several types of
Rings
From head to eyebrows
Or used as ****** devices
Rings on necklaces
Or exchanged
During promises
They can mark an
Achievement
Or be passed
At times of bereavement
A representation of a bond
Of a loving future
Or revoked  when
That love
Is gone
Expensive or cheap
It's the thought behind
It
For a circle
Is infinite

Super hero
Ike E Davis Jan 2019
A stronger man reaches out to help a weaker man
His strength over  comes the others mans
Failure, due to both of
their energies they are able to function and both of their halves makes them strong as one.
Don't look at it as a case of halves.
The weaker man gives more to help the stronger one stay strong during the process of assistance.
Because whatever hope the weaker fellow is now experiencing due to the arrival of the hero, he transfers that energy out to help give power to the rescue.
Don't look at it like heros and weaklings,
Think of it as brother helping brother.
And don't you know,
He's not heavy he's my brother
