Parents back in the day to always use common sense
It would often be emphasized strongly in an instance
When you know something isn’t right, common sense comes into play in maneuvering in the right way
Sounds ok?
It is and common sense needs to be spoken more and more
Some people do off the wall in questionable solutions
One can only draw with nothing but conclusions
Here are some examples, Elevator buttons are utilized once pushed to move to various floors
Someone asked me if they push the button is that how they will get to their floor
I kid you not this was actually asked to me being exactly sure
Another example, tracking numbers are used to track packages
I was told that if you have a number is that what you use to track?
Tracking numbers are put for a purpose, and that should be obvious
Now when walking, you walk from the opposite direction and reverse on the right
Yet some people walk on the right, I guess to annoy being a ploy
However, never any common sense used
Another example number,  when there is a garbage can nearby, why do some people simply throw paper right in front of the can instead of putting into the can
I call that stupidity at its best
My last example, why do people walk on a lovely green grass, but the side walk serves that purpose
Common sense Common Sense where has it gone
One can only speculate
Yet it is about educate
It’s a solution that needs to take whole.

CIRCUS GATHERING
preservationman Aug 2019
It all happens under one roof
It’s intriguing to the youth
I am your Narrator and Ring Leader
What better to tell about the Circus while being Front and Center
Young and Old, please enter
Now that everyone is seated
You are about to be greeted
Let the clowns introduce themselves
Laughter and unexpected surprises should be on your face
It will be powder thrown
You the audience caught in the action being an unknown
A Clown will be sitting in your lap
Don’t be surprised if you will be wearing a Clown Cap
But one thing that will be sure, you will be in some much laughter, you won’t want a nap
Now that the Circus has begun, it is now time for some spectacular fun
I am so glad you are among
Look high above, it’s a Trapeze act that will have you sighing with Ah
Transformation from one Trapeze feat after another
But stay in your seat and not on your feet
Take in the talent as you view above
Perhaps become a Trapeze Artist yourself you will be thinking of
So you want more
I am happy to explore
Imagine if the animals could talk, but that would be through Dr. Doolittle
Yet the Circus animals are their own show, some fierce while others are just plain lovable and tamed
It’s about pleasing the audience and that is the aim
Elephants doing various tricks
Look out, you are about water in your face being the Elephant’s pick
Tiger’s and Lion’s on my
Watch from seat as the Tiger’s and lion’s are behind the cage
But don’t worry they are not in rage
The Lion Tamer has everything under control
The amazement will leave you breathless taking hold
All this happens Center Stage
The show of all shows at any age
******* jacks and Popcorn fitting for the Circus
But it is the audience taking it all in as they witness
The curtain and lights come down
Applause from the audience will be coming the crowd
Entertainment in Razzle Dazzle
Circus fun
On the road again, the circus is done.

RADIO WORLD ACTION

THE ANNOUNCER SPOKE
THE HEADLINE SEEMED LIKE A JOKE
“IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD”
RUN, RUN, RUN
THE EARTH AND THE MOON SHALL COLLIDE
BUT WHERE DOES ONE HIDE?
DESTRUCTION COULD BE RAMBLE ASH
BUT HUMAN LIFE WILL NO LONGER LAST
THE END WILL BE AT THE PRECISE TIME
PERHAPS I AM DREAMING IN THINKING BEYOND SUBLEME
BUT MY HEART POUNDS
I BECAME SILENCE WITH NO UTTERANCE
PETRIFIED
I CAN’T EVEN CRY
WHY EVEN TRY?
THE RADIO I WAS TOTALLY THROUGH
OUR EARTH COULD COME TO AN END
IT COULD BE AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT, BUT NEAR IS WHEN?
THERE IS NOWHERE TO RUN
IT’S AN END COMING WITH NO ONE BEING AMONG.

THE HOLLA HIGHWAY
preservationman Oct 2016
In honor of Halloween
I am setting a very scary seen
The midnight hour has approached
Eerie more intense
The dead are rising from the ground
Moans and groans of given life bearing all kinds of sounds
The Moon wakes up all creatures to begin
A time to feast on flesh and blood to dig in
Zombies run all in front of highway cars
The Full Moon still shine, but within the darkness there are no stars
Flesh and blood stork communities
The pursuit of the crave being all creatures being unity
Car crashing highway smash-up styles
Within all the commotion all during while
Transformations from clothes torn into werewolves
The clawing effect
Human flesh tearing being all creatures elect
Screams serve no purpose
The night makes this all obvious
An unsuspecting woman was approached by a Werewolf
Before she could scream, the woman was clawed to Death
Time is running out, and the night of destruction with no conclusion
It was a trick and treat
Happy Halloween with all the candy to eat
However lurking in the shadows it is unknown to the eye
Word of caution, be cautious and very cautious
Eye is on the soul with anticipation of behold.

THAT WALK

That walk
That talk
The action to follow through
Seeing the straight and avoiding the narrow
A voice spiritual in having thy eye on the sparrow
Walk that distance I was told
Hold your head up and be bold
Watch the wonders of behold
A moment with the Heavenly king
The word strive in encouragement being the thing
But it was that walk
Then came that talk
I will proceed
Whenever I am in need
The resources from Heaven being the good deed
A wonder being no doubt
My praise sustaining a thank you shout
Only a true believer knows what I am talking about
A moment with the Heavenly king
The word strive in encouragement being the thing
But it was that walk
Then came that talk
I will proceed
Whenever I am in need
The resources from Heaven being the good deed
A wonder being no doubt
My praise sustaining a thank you shout
Only a true believer knows that I am talking about
Amen and thank you for that praying bout
I am now confident and will step out. I am talking about
Amen and thank you for that praying bout

HARMONICA BLUES
preservationman Nov 2021
Sitting and waiting playing my Harmonica at the Rivers edge
The moment is my privilege
The Bayou helping me get over my struggles
Feeling tense
Need the Harmonica to help me relax
I am all perplexed
Bring harmony together is what the Harmonica does best
Thinking on worries less
Looking ahead to Dawn
Being blessed feeling the yawn
Through the Dew of expectancy
The Night Stars are certain
The wonder and bright
The Harmonica sooth
Understanding that is smooth
In the eye of struggles
One can overcome
The spirit of hope
Simplicity on target
The Harmonica Bounce
Elevation of tune
Storming the feet
This is a time to refine and be triumphant
Defiance having a cause
The Harmonica set the record straight
Just take in and let appreciate set in
The Bayou is telling me pursue
Tell struggles goodbye
Continue living is what one should try
Living is about sustaining
The blessings remaining
Harmonica finale, you will never be in the valley long
Reached the zone
You stand alone
But the Harmonica let it be known
A Bayou moment being the minute
No limit

THE MOMENT I GAZED AT YOU
preservationman Jun 2014
It was when our eyes met
I knew my heart was set
It was your fragrance of attract
That’s when our personalities became exact
Your feminine steps being you
My emotions that just couldn’t stand still
The message given to me, “May I have your attention please?”
Then you introduced yourself as Louise
Your name stayed in my head
I just kept thinking of you even while I was in bed
Yet I didn’t want to be hurt and later misled
If you are true to me, this could become a romance in what’s too be
But we will have to wait and see
However since our eyes came across and nothing is truly loss.

THE VOICE THAT ECHOED
preservationman Aug 2014
It was high in the hills
It seemed like a movie still
Yet the distinguished voice certainly fit the bill
I will continue on if you will
It was a very sincere voice
It was Heaven being the choice
The voice spoke being plain and simple
The instructions were move and be ample
The voice echoed from far away
It was God’s message in being a relay
My chosen one’s being the flock, but don’t astray
Your troubled heart is only a short moment
It’s put your faith too the test
Don’t expect anything less
Watch as your testimony confess
Keep praying and God will do the rest
God being on the mount and you as a believer in the count
A whispered voice
Clouds as your path
But our Savior don’t make last.

SHOWBIZ LIVE

My memory lane
Entertainment in can’t complain
That would be lame
The Great White Way BROADWAY
My time at the Town Hall Theater on West 43rd Street in New York City
A City big and wide known as the Big Apple
The show was “I NEED A MAN’, a small role with a big cast playing a Date
Moment that took effect where time wasn’t wasted
It was as gospel play leading to spiritual
Nothing unusual
Showbiz seen through entertaining realize
Utter in the sound and it will be heard throughout the town
I hear voices chatter of words of who and how being heard
Care to dance or do you prefer to sit it out
The show must go on
The stage is where I belong
Life is never easy
Certainly not cheesy
Learned the Piano and ***** through a Professional Female Opera Singer and Male concert Pianist and Voice
Sometimes I cry and ask I want fame beyond my real name
Isn’t it rich
Be patient now
Through the light and dark, I have gone far
I know I was born to do this
Dancing is only part of the twist
Don’t stop me now or you will see my fist
Wait a minute, you told me you would give me that kiss
I guess it is a hit and miss
My memories in Pennsylvania came about through SHERATON HOTEL AND CONVENTION CENTER Lily Langtry Dinner Theater in Valley Forge, PA King of Prussia area
Juke Box Jubilee and Egyptian King
Ruling over colonies with dancing girls
The King was ready to be entertained
Appeared in “THE CHRISTMAS CAROL, THE NUTCRACKER and various other shows
One in particular being MOUNT HAVEN RESORT in Milford, PA in the. Heart of the Poconos
It was a musical moment of make believe delighting the audience
Some have said to me personally, “ I don’t know enough”
I call their bluff
All I can say is Spotlight, Dazzle, Music and audience applause
Showbiz best
Forever reminded
Uplifted and Determined
Encore being my finale
Showbiz friendly
My time being my fondest moments

MOUNTAIN HIGH
preservationman Aug 2016
The solid mountains ever so high
I thought to myself and wondered why?
The answer being a creation descended directly from Heaven
But I knew I had to climb
I had to see the distance of my life to be
The depth of the mountain having a destiny
My life’s direction would no longer be a mystery
So I started to head up the mountain peak
The Half Way point became of what is the mission that you seek
Another step of an established almost there
Inspiration flashed to continue to preserver
Every step I knew I was getting near
I reached the Mountain Top
Endurance is what helped me not to stop
At that moment, I had a reason to live, purpose, achieve and accomplish
It was the mountains solid foundation being my assurance I would achieve
The focus in sitting high at the peak
My institution surely wasn’t weak
But understanding being the convincing key, and it was the Heavens that truly showed me.

Tomorrow from yesterday
The past reminding for the future
The journey shall be until
The place, Smithsonian National Afro American Museum of History and Culture in Washington, DC
The date was April 22, 2017, Saturday
Heritage coming in many accomplishments and shouting voices
Legacies of choice
A time of discrimination
Places where rebellion rang high
Questions still remain as of why?
Historians who were determined to break racial barriers
Race being under one accord
Yet all guided by our Heavenly Lord
Wars fighting the many struggles
Freedom being only a word in distance of when
I am Black with a mind to think
Being a Slave they were told to obey
The whole idea of being a slave it was simply a resource being ok
But Black Scholars spoke out
Yet Race was about interacting with other Races and moving about
A time for justice being about time
We will use whatever resources combined
Fight we will, and win we shall
It didn’t matter Bloodshed or Death
Justice was coming no matter what
Marches all throughout the South
Town after Town with names called out beyond their own
Segregation being a term that was considered ok
But this America is about being free, and this was decreed from thee
The Freedom Riders with determined to fight and Greyhound Bus Lines was the one that opened the light
Marches and voices
Chanting Freedom, “We shall Overcome”
Air waves were spread into big waves being shore to shore
Afro-Americans were told they must stay in their place
The thought being from the opposition
But Afro-Americans knew they must position
Education was the number one tool
Having knowledge doesn’t make you a fool
It just makes opposition drool
Freedom did come, and Race was a combination in coming together
Smithsonian NMAMHC being a way of helping all Americans to see Freedom as a right
Smithsonian shed some light
Cause with effect
A purpose not being an elect
I am a Black who seen and conquered
Wonder no more
Just continue to educate and explore.

Children of all ages enriched
Adults who the saw all the amazes

Peter Pan fame gained even more distinction through Peter Pan Bus Lines
The Peter Pan name now was a people moving motorcoach
No way in comparison to a stagecoach
Highway all the way
Even to this day
Peter Pan Bus lines gets his history from New England
A place known as Springfield, Massachusetts
The countryside, Hills, Lakes and the beauty that makes New England
Peter Pan Bus Lines is part of it all
It all echoes Peter Pan
The ride and comfort
Timetable
Peter Pan Bus lines, a motorcoach still able
Years was its start long before I was born
The time frame was somewhere in the 1900’s
Planning in what Peter Pan Bus Lines would become
Peter Pan Bus lines being a traveling road warrior
The pictures of Peter Pan, Captain Hook and many other characters on the side of Peter Pan Buses for the passengers to admire and think like a kid in their day
Captain Hook is always on good behavior
Just beware of the sword, you never know what Captain Hook is thinking
Now Peter Pan Bus Lines has expanded into New York City, Wilmington, DE, Baltimore, MD and Washington, DC
Peter Pan himself will always be present by way of the front, side and back of bus
Peter Pan Bus Lines being the journey of recline and relax
Forget your troubles and don’t feel perplexed

Thank you for letting me continue to explore
It’s a journey I found to be incredible
Yet a travel being imaginable
Lord you helped me understand myself
You are truly like nobody else
Salvation with a purpose being the caravan
Having a testimony with much to say
The influenced inspirational blessings I see and feel every day
It’s like a stream beyond a dream
A sunrise in waking up to a new day
The Devil wants to attack, but I stay the course and not go astray
But through Faith the spirit says not today
A fence surrounds me in protect
It’s not a decree being an elect
Yet, it’s the image of the Lord with a project
He carried me from darkness into the light
But the Devil wants my victory to be a plight
When I seem like I can’t climb the mountain, it’s endurance in climb up
It’s times when people have issues with me
However, the Lord favored me and I just project in letting them see
Many times struggles become like roadblocks, but the Lord knows how to redirect
He’s merciful and he as that spiritual effect
I wouldn’t have any other way
Heaven see’s and knows
The Lord is everlasting and being the praising flow.

But I seem to be taking the statement light
No assurance in I thought I might

A drink could be any kind of wine
A moment to start and completion being my end
The time to convince surrounding my I thought I might
Reasoning illustrating my own clarification
Schooling is the surface being education

Perhaps I am taking it just a little too light
Then again, maybe I am just being too polite
After really thinking, what I have established has become what I have accomplished that was all along in plain sight.

But the young man’s passing Mother put the breaks on in stall
The young man’s Mother was a devoted Churchgoer, she would have said, “God will always be at your side no matter what, and he will even see you through consequences when you think you are stuck”
Yes Mama has gone on home
But you stay in the Church and don’t you roam
The Church is where you need to be
God is the one too whom you need to see
“When you think you are alone, the Lord will encourage you in letting it be known”
You might think you are alone because there is no one physically there
Yet it is the feeling of quiet and no movement beyond compare
God is for all and it’s his abundant he wishes to share
As you walk and talk
As you praise and sing
The whole process is too be inspired
Alone being a short phase
But this is all of part of God’s amaze
So when you think you are alone, it will always be God in what is shown
Alone in your mind, God’s resources of everlasting combined
Always remember, God is genuine.

A pinpoint plot
The entire cast who call the shots
The king pin mob who is hot
The feeling of the atmosphere
The question being, where do we go from here?
Suddenly a shot rings out
We the group make a big shout
Entertainment, this is what I am talking about
A cry out for revenge
Needless to say
The mob that says everything is ok
Evidence thrown to the fishes
An aftermath of no near misses
Plenty of cheers

The Soporano’s way
They have the last word and what can you say.

The blackness of night
A flash of lightening being a dazzling sight
The roar of thunder with echoing moans
This is a night to not be alone
Creatures and souls walk through the night
Shrieks into screams will be a plight
Be careful with the knocks at the door
Souls and creatures are waiting and it’s you they want to explore
Your number is up, but who will score
You are scare, because you are not sure
Your mind questions your very deepest thoughts
Sweat pours like a moving rushing fountain
Yet these creatures and souls are alive
They need flesh and bone in order to survive
Conditions are blood and bone
Like I said before, you shouldn’t be alone
Suddenly creatures and souls descend in their attack at every closed door
You can’t scream and ignore
They are coming for you
But what will you do?
Running is not an option
Yet standing still uncanny
You are your only witness
I pity your soul
A night that will be a behold
Creatures and souls will be bold
Your flesh and blood having no value in sold
Eternity has arrived
Tomorrow having an uncertain strive
Everlasting unknown
A storm that knows
It’s too late
The hour has come, and you are already the bait.

He knows just the right fragrance
You scent the presence of Judge Fancy in an instance
That’s his way
But things do change day by day

Write the word then let your voice be heard
Let the power of knowledge be a learning experience
Recharge with energy and continue in endurance
Then go out and use what you learned being an influence
Positive approaches with precise ideas
Word of the day to think preserver
Come out of the thought in hiding in fear
Step back from the rear and move to the front in being near
You are the words
The power is within you
You and only you are the clue
The mirror reflection shows the true image of whom you really are
It’s your ambition that will take you truly far
Stay focused with your thinking ways
What goes and what stays
It will all happen one day
Remember what you were taught
It’s not a matter of naught
It’s a matter of sought and the organization within your own thought.

Unrest spirit
Revenge
The skies opened up like a fiery hell
The Evil Witch
The unfold is being told in tell
The Witch could no longer cast spells
Her evilness suddenly fell
The witch vowed to pass wrath on the world
Good Witch overtook the Evil Witch in swirl
Be gone Evil Witch
Your powers no longer work here
The community finally has freedom from your unity
The citizens over you no pity
Salem wants you back where you belong
You are a mere mortal
The mind having no desire
Into the fire
You will be chained forever
Never to invade again
Be gone Evil Witch
Eternity will be your everlasting
Burn Burn Burn Evil Witch
The bell rings for your endless Soul
The Evil Witch is dead to never show her angry face
Your flesh is now ash
No Tombstone nor grave
You are punished because you didn’t behave
The Witches ashes drift to the Heaven’s above
Safe keeping to think of
Gone forever with no lifetime
Everlasting

WHISPERS OF THE HEART
preservationman Jul 2016
Whispers of love echoing in my ear
Total inspiration when you are near
Your hand in mine feeling the closeness of being among
Our eyes connect to each other to look upon
Lips with another in the enchanting kiss
Our romance feeling like a loving story book
But all it took was the look
I am your Prince and you are my Queen
We have established a bond with nothing in between
But our hearts in knowing what that means
We are the candle with a flame staying lit
Our love being strong with an everlasting fit
It’s the eternity trust
The whole idea of loving being a must
Yet our love goes beyond lust
Fulfillment being our request
For better and nothing for less
Adornment has surfaced being the absolute best
Our naked bodies have connected together like nobody else
We know what love is all about
Our caress is always a shout
Our whispers of love is spoken straight out.

A POET’S DIARY
preservationman Apr 2017
My mind says write
My thoughts illustrate am I right?
A Poet must have a concept
But also adapt
Words can have a rhyme
It can also have possibilities
Adjectives into verbs
The right combination being like an herb
But the specific Poet’s story had an angle, and it went like this
Tension was pressures on my heart
My mind being like a violet storm
Echoes upon echoes of many voices
Yet my senses alert alarm after alarm
A rocky avalanche occurs
But one is right in the middle of the situation
One’s life could end in that split second
Reckons calls
Pray on the knees in fall
Oh Lord I am in a plight
Possible darkness with transcending light
My soul will go up to thee
I am asking spare my life
Suddenly the avalanche passes over
One praying soul survives
This was a Poet’s story encounter
But it makes one really wonder
The Poet was destined to write
But if one has Faith and truly believe
Writing with confident will help relieve
A Poet must have the idea to always perceive.
preservationman Oct 2017
A search for resolutions
Drawing not to own conclusions
A test of one’s Faith
Struggles that can be many
Possibilities in opening the prayer door
Salvation where one must explore
In the Movie Theatre during the screen showing, I found myself lifting up my own praise
The illustration of God’s miracle, I found myself thinking about what I overcame being what would had been my own Death with nothing but amaze
I poured out my praise with tears
However, it was pure joy having no fears
My thought during the movie in Jesus being the Great I am
Hope in believing
The Holy Scriptures in relieving
Temptation being nothing more than deceiving
Deceptive having God’s receptive
Heaven being a worthy place
Everlasting in eternal being the trace
The journey on wearing full God’s armor on
The Question of Faith
Embracing of God’s love
Follow me, and you will find peace
Follow me, and you will find rest
However, in salvation there is always a test
The Lord being the miracle maker
Hallelujah, and again Hallelujah
Doubt having no place in Heaven’s place
Question of Faith
Answer being established with the Lord
Faith Assurance throughout being under God’s accord
This is all brought to you by in thank you from our Lord.

HEAVEN’S OPEN DOOR
preservationman Jun 2016
My Grandmother would often tell me stories about the Lord when I was little
She would also tell me pray before you to too bed
But don’t let other people fool you and you become misled
My Grandmother told me the Lord is Almighty
Heaven is where he lives
It’s his blessings in what he gives
A man who don’t on the cross
The same man who conquered Death at full force
The world is in his hands
It’s divinity throughout the land
The Lord is a wonder with a behold
I am a witness and this is my story told
It’s his skies that often make me wise
His theories are no surprise
Be honest in where you stand
It’s the true heart being the caravan
Embrace one another
Encourage like no other
Lightening is stating show no fear
Thunder being the Lord’s voice that he is always near
Faith is what everyone should have
Praise the on high Savior
Worthy with an honor
Prayer that keeps me inspired
It’s the hour after hour
As daily I feel his power
Truth within my heart
Lord, take my hand and lead me to destiny
Give me understanding where knowledge waits
My life is in your daily hands
I am your servant being at your demand
My belief is my testimony
I conquered Death because you give life
My flesh doesn’t roam
I know with you I am never alone
You have given me dignity where others said I don’t
You enriched me in spirituality where others said I shouldn’t
But my testimony ranks high
It is you that help me to stride
For that reason, there is no need for me to cry
Carry me where I need to be
My testimony for all to hear and see
I am your living
Your blessings just keep giving
Your servant is here, through you, I will continue to preserver
Thank you Lord for always being near
No one else nor the Devil can compare.

FACE IN THE MIRROR
preservationman Oct 2015
A reflection that wasn’t my own
Yet my curiosity needed to be known
The face was of somebody else
It was another like no other
A face I didn’t know
But a refection with a voice in having a message
Tell others, “Inspire to be alive”
A true promise with no jive
Reflection in not having a mirror crack
The message being clear and sharp as a tack
The reflection made me realize to put all my troubles away in a stack
Later throwing them away as a permanent memory pack
True inspiration with full desire
Face in the mirror can be anybody having an outlook
For me this is all it took
You in the mirror needing a change
It’s all a matter to just rearrange
To change into improve
The heart and mind coming together in soothe
The end of anguish with nothing to prove
Mirror with a reflection, and appreciation for one’s self being the indication.

BOOK OF LIES
preservationman Sep 2016
Truth having on place to be found
Falsehood is the chapter always being bound
Chapters after chapters that are never defined
Yet total conviction that’s never kind
There’s never a reason for truth to sink in
Book of lies that never bends
The Book Of Lies for people to feel like fools
Circumstances that would make anyone drool
You don’t deserve the truth
Think back on the evilness you did in your youth
It was people’s hearts you torn apart
Yet you continued your lies thinking you were clever and smart
Book of Lies was written just for you
It is for you in thinking through
Your constant lies
Come to yourself and compromise
You will find you are the surprise
Lies in turning things around
I don’t want to hear it, and don’t make a sound
Book of Lies that had its own truth
Your lies were of that proof.

HEAVEN’S WAKE-UP TRAIN
preservationman Oct 2016
It’s not Amtrak, Long Island Railroad nor Metro North.
It’s Heaven’s Wake-Up train that picked me up at where I am station.
It was All Aboard being the indication.
Baggage is not necessary to ride, just praise and tell the Earth Goodbye.
Our journey is going to be far.
Not a place where one could at a distance as it is passed the stars.
Just have your praising voice on.
We are talking about everlasting that will last long.
The Conductor said, “Tickets are not collected”
Your reservation is already confirmed.
When I stepped aboard the Wake Up Train.
I left struggles, hatred, pain, despair and Uncertainty all on Earth.
It’s a tomorrow of a new day and new enriched birth.
Next being the final stop, Heaven being nonstop.
Heaven’s gates opened up wide.
This is where I will stride.
It will be honor and glory that will abide.
I am home.
Home from home, but praise within the roam.
Where souls are never alone.
I will never forget that WAKE UP TRAIN.
It was On-time with no delays.
The continued Lord’s words being the relay
Spiritually I am ok.
Yet praising and rejoicing will be every day.
That valued moment became Heaven’s stay.

My heart wishes to live on the moon
But it won’t be anytime soon
A new planet to live on
For all it takes for as long
I wish I could just reach the moon straight up
But from the distance, I can only see the Moon’s make up
At night the moon looking like a bright sphere
However, I wish I could move from Earth in order to preserver
Live on the moon being a new place
The old environment of Earth certainly I would erase
Gat away from this rat race
Having inspiration and a fulfilling trace
The moon a waits
However no specific date
For now, I will remain on Earth in my current estate.

This is a Special Television News Bulletin, a Tornado is heading for your town
The Tornado is parallel bound
Winds blowing in the distance being the sound
Evacuate your homes immediately, and head for your underground storm shelters
There is not a minute to spare
This Tornado is not like any other that compare
It’s a double Tornado in size with both being smashing mates
Move swiftly before it is too late
The Tornado has hit Quakerville
Yet it’s moving fast still
Electrical power is totally knocked out
There are reports of Death and injuries here and about
Good luck to you all in your efforts to survive
It’s a matter in finding a place to hide.

Let’s gather the words
My Lecture I need to be heard
Words are more than just a sentence
They can be used for reference
A story having influence be told using pointer words
Your heart has a word which pumps blood throughout your body
Words are the intellect which educate
But let me illustrate
Participation and involvement all relate
It’s movement established through the mind which communicate
Words can carry your thought and bring you to distance
The understanding in what the mile of theory would be
Yet the continuing sentences explaining the theory
Words can become deeper than any Lecture
The letters add to the adventure
As I walk around the room, I am thinking of words that would inspire you all
It’s EXCEL, INSPIRATION, ENCOURAGEMENT, OPPORTUNITY AND COMMODITY
They all connect with each other
They are spelled differently, but lead in the same direction
My lecture was such to open your eyes
You possess knowledge with understanding and words that will make you wise
This is the conclusion of Professor Knows It
All you have to do is apply the principles, and that’s all too it
But the mission is to try and experiment your self.

A WISH UPON A WHY
preservationman Jan 2015
I looked up at the sky with my own eyes
A voice said I am high above and are am I
I wondered if there was some truth
I am older and no longer in my youth
The W was my thinking on what
The Y being illusion from yesterday
No beginning but an endless conclusion
Yet my heart is not certain
My soul doesn’t seem to be assured
My life needs detail to be explored
A moment could take an hour
My continued negative thought could end up being sour
Every honor with every story
Praise with everlasting glory
It stands with every circling hour
My why comes near
Yet I feel some astonishing fear
My mind not wanting to question
I don’t want to make a suggestion
But a continued wish in my why
With every effort there seems to be a cry
My Why is the analysis within Try
But I don’t want to get wet but stay dry
With every passing thought, I knew I have been taught
I figured it out, and it’s my understanding in a proven sought.

A SLAVE’S FORGOTTEN POEM
preservationman Mar 2017
My sunrise is morning to be whipped
It’s the hot sun in cotton picking on the plantation
The Master forces you to give him information
My thought of Freedom being a proclamation
I can’t even express my own explanation
I pray oh Lord
I am your faithful following in accord
Oh those beaten days
The long seemingly days
The Master continues to beckons
I pray to the Lord that he changes his ways
Being a slave certainly can’t stay
Beaten paths
Escape to where and how?
One day just one day
Freedom will reign
I may not be alive to see
But my Soul will know in everything Freedom should be
A Slave’s eyes see distance beyond any mortal’s demise, but wisdom and understanding keeps our focus in remaining wise.

GREYHOUND BUS TURKEY CHOIR
preservationman Nov 2023
We have a reason to sing
We are doing our thing
Turkey dash
Oven free
We are traveling carefree
How noble and superior
We don’t have inferior
Turkey’s everywhere asked Greyhound to help them escape
We are not moving like an ape
Destinations doesn’t matter
We have cut down all the chatter
Away from any knife and fork
Dinner tables try eating pork
This is a Turkey getaway
That Ax is not coming nowhere near our way
The Greyhound bus is forever our friend
From beginning to end
Greyhound Bus Turkey wheels in keep on rolling
Passing dinner tables by
Our distances are far
We don’t need a car
Turkey eating a turnoff
Sunrise to Sunset
Turkeys are saying, “We have pushed away in a determined getaway”
We will not be considered Turkey Day
We don’t care what anybody says
Turkey out

BEING MY OWN POET LEGEND
preservationman Jun 2018
My words from yesterday
Inspiration that followed everlasting
The words that took there proper place
Yet sentences no one could ever erase
Proud and honor to be a Poet
But I am letting you know it
It became my writing movement in time
My words being like turn of revolve
But with the resolutions to solve
My purpose was and still is today
However, my internal and extending into external in stay
Sometimes you would find me writing even by the Bay
I never thought or dreams of ever being a Poet
I just started writing with positive encouragement, and the writing then followed
Pass Legends like Benjamin Franklin and Langston Hughes being my inspiration to write
Gave me mission to write and continue writing
My thoughts that were hidden stories locked in my mind
Yet a voice from within unlock and let your words come out
But friends were also my encouragement, as they stated I have a lot to tell about
My tomorrow simply arrived at the precise moment
Seconds came and it was a reckon expectation
However, I learned too make my writing a appreciation
It was write while you can
Then keep writing until then
But who would have thought?
Writing was a wonder to my eyes
Yet to the reader, what a surprise
Realization at it’s best
My own experiences that only I can confess
My dramatization being participation
My amazement being nothing up my sleeve
But confident in writing that one can achieve
Yet my own sentences sending a message like a refreshing breeze
Oh I just feel simply at ease
So now you know
I am my own Poet Legend, but not trying to make a show
I am only wanted to put you in the know
But I didn’t want to do a quick acceleration, but take it slow
Pass Legend Poets you, but wanted to be added to list
In other words, I wanted this to be a new twist
Writing seriously is totally from the mind
Yet be simple and kind
Reach out and write
Encourage others but with the plight
That describes me in plain sight
Oh the words and sentences that came out
I encourage too write on
But being a Poet, I know where I belong.

A DRAMATIC ACT
preservationman Apr 2016
My act in yet to perform
My cries are far from the norm
I am at the center of my conviction
A knife I hold in my hand of my demand
I want to aim straight for my heart
I am not worthy to live
I can no longer give
My pain of a bottomless soul
The years of my past have grown old
Pity me not
The knife is my only shot
Death was put in the center of my own spotlight
My consequence has always been my plight
Life has no meaning to me
Even my eyes don’t want too see
I leave now
My consequence I know how
My presentation being the show
Death has finally called and my light has turned dim and I must go
Goodbye I say unto you, and tomorrow I have no debt due.
