SWISS TIME TOWN
preservationman Jun 2023
Once upon
A clock
Behold
Midnight special
Centerpiece
Right in the square
Beware
A Thief struck during the night
The clock had been stolen, but out of sight
The wonder became who and how
The citizens thought oh wow
Everyone was horrified
Some were even petrified
The clock was the attention of the town
Distance far enabled from surrounding communities
Swiss time town was about unity
The clock made Swiss Time Town famous
Acknowledgement
The question that came up was why was the clock stolen?
The clock had value in the hearts of the people, and meant everything to the town’s people
The Thief saw fortune
The long hand made the short hand into a theory
But it was still a mystery
Search after search
No find
The Thief was certainly not kind
Without a visual clock, what will happen to Swiss Time Town?
Moments are ticking, but no sound
The clock is nowhere to be found
The town got together and started connecting to each other in song and inspiring themselves
Until the clock is found being a if and when
What will the town people do until then?
It’s not a time to be discouraged, but embrace one another
Suddenly without warning, the clock appeared back at center in the square as if the thief had a heart or the singing touched the soul of thief
Swiss Time Town relief
Tick tock
The sound of time
Hope came alive
Strive
How about that?
Centerpiece of tranquil
Acceleration will
Happily ever after
Until
Time in, but didn’t die out
preservationman Jun 2021
The ponder no doubt
Arranging within the theory about
Now let’s work this out
First, doubt must be deleted
Second, forget about being defeated
Consider positive thoughts being your assurance
Look in the mirror and see you are the influence
Encouragement starts with you
Don’t expect encouragement to always come from the outside
It’s comes from inner where you reside
It’s acceleration for you to go through
Resist only your thoughts that are holding you back
Make a list of all your drawbacks
But keep track
It’s a known fact
Be consistent
Avoid resistant
Think positive in all your approaches
Don’t depend on negativity
That means your aurora that accompanies in your conversations of other voices
You have choices
Now you can tell resistance goodbye
Give consistency a try

THY WORD

Thy word
Thy moment
Thy heart
Thy spirit
Wondering if thy reach
Open up and listen
Spiritual voice calling
Destined words
Fulfill until complete
Words magnificent
Interlock significant
Observed of word path
Spiritual connection being obvious
One needs to understand
Separation verses distance
Hearing yet believing
Confessing being the truth

Being hungry, but the soul not fully fed
Thy word has a mission
Thy word is the promise
Thy word is the truth

Intertwining into Heaven’s wisdom
Words showing you are the witness
Being ready for what was promised
Thy word
It has already been spoken.

BLUE EYES
preservationman Jul 2021
The image of your face, Eyes and smile
I wondered during my while
You said me being a Poet and how my words captured you
My words went all through and through
Our loving came together like a full moon
I searched for a very long time for a female mate
Blue eyes when you came along it was pure fate
Your blue eyes caught my attention
It was like a Hawaiian night
My heart pounded with that very first kiss
I knew then I wanted you to be my miss
Blue eyes you are so down to Earth
I was enriched like a new birth
Oh Blue Eyes
You make me ever so wise
Our moments together are energized
Let us both journey together to the next level
It’s marriage on my mind
The house with you and I combined
Perhaps form our own family
You nourished my soul
You are my behold
Blue Eyes
Kiss me, you are my Queens and I am your King
Let’s embark into the love thing
Your blue eyes are my bling

BANKING ON ROMANCE
Love interaction
Eyes met
Hearts pounded
Inspiration or where have you been?
Pure attraction
Kiss of sensation
Let me take you out, and have dinner as we move about
The talk in getting to know each other
Being the lucky Fella
On top of the world
Every laugh and jokes came with enchanted smile
Loving after loving while
Inspiring loving words
Gestures sounding like personal whispers
Never thought I would feel love again
That was then
This is now
There was love deposits with no withdrawls in our love
Total desire with love input and output
Serious feel
True love for real
Bonding hands together
Romance being like on a High Mountain just the two of us embracing in the loving breezes
Cool refreshing wind and warm heart
Smooth loving thoughts
Stars twinkled
The Moon smiled
Only regret, we loss contact
Distance separated us
No fight, just loss each other
We were both temps from the same agency
My last day was a specific day
She was out sick on my last day
Loss love
What would our love have extended?
Maybe Man and Wife
Another place and time
My kiss in the wind to reach you
Until that captured moment again
Heart pounds
From your love wonder.

TV on
You yawn
You are always being watched
Bed or Couch
The TV always has eyes on you
You are the view
You keep falling asleep
The TV alive and woke
As the TV, I am watching you turn over
You are never under a cover
You often snore
That I can assure
You always miss what the TV is showing
You are too busy snoring
You blame the TV
Yet your eyes are always closed
Deep sleep
Your own soul to keep
The TV tells you goodnight
You suddenly turn off the light
All I can say daily, sleep tight.

NEW YORK IDOL
preservationman Aug 2019
Singing voice be ready
Dancing feet hold steady
I am confident being ready
I want my talent to become fame
Spotlight Center Stage being my aim
I hope I can impress
I also hope the audience will appreciate and not say they could care less
I am picturing myself on the Great White Broadway
I see myself in a musical with dazzle and sizzle coming together in harmony
Then there is the raw of the audience with a thundering applause
It could even involve a holiday number that could include Claus
I sang and I danced
This is an opportunity being a chance
Then there’s perfection in how one entertains going into advance
But first before I reach that point, I must the Judge’s attention
After all, this is my organized presentation
Pitch must be just right
I will be nervous, but must step out of stage fright
Let me perform showing excite
I am asking the Judge’s to be honest, but try to be polite
I do need encouragement, and I won’t take it light
This is New York City where entertainment always shines bright.

THE UNTHEATRICAL SCRIPT
preservationman Nov 2019
Love was in the air
But throughout, a surprise preserver
My Female Friend is a Broadway New York Actress, and she asked me if I would help her with a script
But how fit
I used to do Theatrical in Pennsylvania
So I agreed, and we went over the script
It was reading the lines in words and sentences in theatrical ways
But the script seemed to offer romantic strays
It was full of detail
Now follow the trail
We both were getting into the script being dramatic
But our responses were systematic
Love was starting to take effect
The Script seems to set the mood
I felt there was something I had to prove
I became enthused
Suddenly our script reading together became more intense
Guess where I went?
Gave a kiss on my Female friends lips
Then got on one knee, and popped the question of, “Will you Marry Me?”
My Female friend said yes
But we were the only two Guest
But let me be straight up
This wasn’t a true story
I just wrote what was in my head all in its glory
So I was enchanted thinking love.

Fire Act
Flames of conviction
A trick
Didn’t stick
Stuck behind the trap door

LOSS, BUT FOUND

Once was loss, but now found
Hear my praise with a loud sound

It’s a blessing of strive
Tomorrow and moment is never promised
One must be honest
Blessings don’t just come, it must be deserving
You must have true Faith and hungry for a spiritual serving
The Lord is our rock
The world is his flock
The Cross is his uplifting symbol
We are his creation
We represent throughout the nation
Blessing from his mold and behold
We walk and embrace in his grace
As a Believer, we are in a race

We shall be lifted up.

Words into illusions
Sentences surround with no conclusions
Endless turns and circles
Emotions are in control
Mind over Matter
You have entered a point of no return
The Phenomenon Twilight Zone Poetry
The story is having letters fighting their way into sentences
Situations turning into instances
One’s mind and inner thoughts
Each letter dancing in the mind’s subconscious yelling to get out
There is so much acceleration moving about
Situations beyond worked out
Through time of with limited pause
Foreseen with a cause
Short notice at the moment
The call for structure
Words seen as a picture
It becomes the moment of truth
Letters forming words
Sentences bringing out the realize
Words and sentences finally connect in write
It was the phantom Twilight Zone spectrum
Poetry that stalked the night
It was Create and Write
I was followed by Good Night

DEAR WORDS

Word bound
You have often encouraged me in compose
You always said practice being suppose
I felt within inspiration
I noticed that my words became a creation
My moment being my time
I lacked confident in thinking words didn’t involve me
But through the ability my illustration became a peek and see
One letter became assurance
Letters that followed with the added endurance
My understanding formulated influence
Doubt suggests won’t
I wasn’t going to stop, but I had to try
I wasn’t going to settle for self-pity
It meant applying myself being witty
It doesn’t matter in what city
What implies is taking words and making them a journey beyond
A statement in making sure they are words being heard
Utterance having tolerance
Words that surround the mind
Reaching the surface, and not drown
I am the word’s being the leader
You taught me well
But I am sure people can tell
This is a wording moment
You emphasized that I am the words in surprise
I am the focus of realize
My words turned me into a human enterprise
I am the Word Trek
Sentences became my frontier into words of my own
I am on this journey
Tomorrow one word, the future will be words extended being my destiny
Ultimate my privilege

Life came in one shoe fit
Determined to live and not quit
Made the wrong choices
Managed to overtake and make right
Achieved of value in knowing how establish
No question needed with answer
Fighter of life with no surrender spirit
No need to say sorry
There is no worry
Some would say merit while others would say punk
Call it what you will
I understand myself, but do you understand yourself
My name is counted among
A man higher than I knows it
Believe what you will
Know myself better than anybody else
Baby, I thought you understood
Must understand yourself before analyzing another
Words you say draws me away
You are trying to convince me to stay
Standing on principle
Words said are reality
Don’t pity me, but pity yourself
Made up for it in life in believing who I am having a purpose
Tomorrow everlasting
Shoe fit
Don’t try to fit in it
Don’t know what I gone through in life
Standing and continuing to stand
You are no longer in dem and
My shoes have walked on
Be gone
Cleverness and Humbleness
Search for excellence
Therapy words
The fire that burns
Anecdote Heal
Through the alphabet
The leave determined to arrive
Valleys of doubt
Understanding needing seek
The desire to be meek
Echoing voices
The tongue expresses out
Statement after statement
Mistakes having corrections
Love with enduring affections

Totally hidden
The night forbidden
It’s a very foggy night
Lurking fright
You wish you could disappear
Fear accelerating near
Possible victim
Halloween vibe
Perhaps jive
It really doesn’t matter
Your teeth are in chatter
Hungry treat
Tricks up the soul’s sleeves
No relieve
Moans turn into yells

That line might be fine
Love of the heart at times being kind
A glass of wine being a story added divine
Line by line
Word by word
The distance between what happened
Extending to
Thinking through and through
Perhaps a notion having a thought
A pass dream remembered
Caught in a nightmare trap
Storms that became violent
One pause of silent
A past wonder
Sunshine suddenly appeared yonder
Emotions opened up
Joy prospered
Expiration had no tire
I know, but questioned
Opinionated but was a suggestion
Inspiration rang like a Philadelphia Liberty Bell
That moment, I felt like William Tell
I can do this
Encouragement spoke
Proceed told
You are mighty and bold
Heaven’s hand your threshold
The story within a moment’s notice of time
The life being mine.

Perhaps, I should take full blame
I am a loser

If Death was to come, I wouldn’t be surprised
Destroy me, I have no need to rise
I have fallen, just leave me there
The Sun turned black
I have no reason to turn back
My heart is torn apart
Tears after Tears mounting
I am in desperation
I am between separation
Money doesn’t know me
Riches are only dreams
Speculation with Assumption
I never existed
Weathered fiery storms
Forget me always
Loss within my own ashes
Dust never cleared
Wonders with unanswered questions

Alone and Despite
Everlasting is my finish

WRITER VERSES POET FEUD
preservationman Jun 2020
The Writer said
It was what the Poet did
The Writer and Poet both have a commitment and responsibility
Write what you think, and how you feel
A sense of purpose from conceal
The Writer’s theory of words with them being an anecdote
Then on the Poet’s point of view in words that are spoke
The Poet’s scene having a rhythm with a connection of emotional words
Well this feud had been going on far too long, but enough was enough
But one would wonder if the Writer and Poet really being together
They both seem to outclass each other
Now they are feuding on whose right, and the other whose wrong
However. When it comes to words and sentences, the Writer and Poet
Both need to get along
The idea is collaboration
For the reader, it is appreciation
The hidden Moon into a foggy night, but disturbances into unrest with eerie sounds in the distance could be heard in the darkness of night. Life not knowing tomorrow with an uncertainty woe
Now that would be the impact of both in coordination of the Writer and Poet.
Now you know it
So this feud came to an agreeable end
Now everyone can be free and write again
It’s a sleepless night, and write I shall because a Writer and Poet can

Your mind telling you to write
Your thoughts encouraging being possible
Your words you seem to muster
But are you words wanting you to be their master?
Cluster after cluster
Words becoming more dominant
But are you true in being imminent?
Words are telling you awaken
But you think you are dreaming and still asleep
Your thoughts get deeper
Words are all circulating through your mind
Stories that are developing within your self-conscious
Suspicious speculation in theory
Mysterious
But it is making you furious
You are angry because the words command you
Your mind is fighting the words in a writing battle
The midnight oil has you sitting in the saddle
You are writing poetry you never thought possible
You have the advantage, because the words gave you courage
Let your own words enrich you
Yes, you are the Poet you always was
It was a matter of Influence, Endurance and Assurance
You are your own know more
You took the journey to explore
Words called, and you finally answered
Words announced, “The Poet has arrived”.

SLAVE BY AND BY SONG

My days grow short
My eyes grow weak
Been a slave most of my life
The thought of Freedom
My knowledge in wisdom
Blisters on my feet when I try the plantation retreat
Beaten and clothes always torn
Forced into intimacy woes
Working the plantation fields under the hot sun
It’s a wonder I am still living among
Lord, look down and guide me
Heaven is wise
Plantation owners don’t want me to pray
This is every day
I chant silently in praying words
My voice to you Lord needs to be heard
Praying out with a hopeful thought
How long and when will I be free?
Every day Death runs through my mind
Beat me until I no longer can be beaten
My soul will live forever
I could be buried in unknown graves
I want to see everlasting light
Being a slave seeing no more plight
Freedom Freedom Freedom for all time
Being like a Tomorrow’s sunrise
A slave no more
A New life to explore
The horizon in the distance
Closer I want
Freedom, I want to see
Given praise too Thee
Yet, I will continue to pray
One day
I shall be free

POET’S ORDEAL
preservationman Jan 2023
Words don’t always come
Sometimes my mine is lonesome
At times Poets feel they aren’t Poets
Storms torment the spirit
It feels like a detour having a blockage
Emotions sealed like a hidden trap door
The battles between the words and sentences
No beginning. Nor ending
Sustain within
Loss for expression
One letter at a slow call
Unable to respond
Inspiration down
The Poet being nowhere to be found
Failure in own right
Poet relishing plight
The battle strong and intense
A Poet’s life could very well be past tense
Words missing the bull’s eye
All a Poet can do is cry
Letters from words
Mind and voice, we need to talk
Every pause is a Poet’s stalk
There must be a mindset
Writing is about creating the effect
Then something happens behind the Poet’s words
They construct
Suddenly encouragement comes from Poetry readers
Writing and sentences come back
The battle is no longer a struggle
Echoes comes to the Poet, “Come back to the writing saddle”
Be a Poet you are meant to be
Be committed and devoted for the world to continue to see
Poet in
Writing boldly out
Insight
Poet back

SELMA WISDOM
It was that ****** Sunday, March 7, 1965
The fight and struggle
The revolution with Hate and Love
The multitudes to convey the Civil Rights message
The shall in overcome
Marching for Miles
It was during the period of Dr. Martin Luther King style
Former Representative John Lewis and many other legacies that support the mission were involved
Chanting in song while
Determination steady and strong
Race shouldn’t be a factor, but character being an honor
The people of Selma knew they were created to be among society
No mistake, Heaven’s purpose
It was about coming together as a Nation
Opposition negativity thought otherwise
Hate was the voices of the opposed and Civil Rights Activist chose Love

Hate doesn’t understand
Love sustains value
The people of Selma understood that guided by God’s Wisdom
The voice of the Kingdom
Multitude voices refused to surrender in negative thoughts and evil ways
The theory was “Together We Shall All Stand”
Change was going to come
Selma did win, and love and embrace became victory
Yet we are not back to the story of another
It is 2025, and opposition is trying hard to go backgrounds while we the people thought we were going forward
Backwards to where all struggles began with more racial disturbances start up
The fight is on again being more determined than ever before being the need to “UNITE and OPPOSE”


Can’t be still
There’s still Civil Rights to continue to fulfill
While we have breath in our bodies at will
There cannot be a pause nor silence
Civil rights, Liberty and Freedom
Shouts of dignity our cause
We will win again until we all rise together as one.

Uncertainty with no possibilities
Doubt
Rewarding coming from within
Establishments with fusions
Element being fact
That ends that

FALLEN TEARS
preservationman May 2023
Full of sorrow
A loss
Like a brother
Like no other
Gave good advice
Personality was nice
Loss gone into tomorrow
Feel alone
The world closed in
Don’t know where my life will begin
No pretend
Thinking back in the day of time in when
Here and now
Oh wow
A friend indeed
Never a one who wanted need
Focused on proceed
Always remember
Even while I slumber
Legacy lives on
My appreciation strong
Sleep way my friend
Until we meet again

People of New York City applaud
Heaven’s honor
Former Mayor David Dinkins, a name to remember
Your work is complete and you can slumber
Honor with pride
Heaven’s prepared her for the journey ride
I remember meeting the honorary Mayor Dinkins when I was in my twenties
I was walking down West 50th Street and 6th Avenue in Rockefeller Center
As I got closer to 1285-6th Avenue, I discovered Mayor David Dinkins
He was getting out of his limousine in front of 1285-6th Avenue, and I paused as he walked passed me, Mayor Dinkins said Hello, and shook my hand, and went on into the building
I knew then, Mayor Dinkins was about people
Mayor Dinkins will always be a remembrance for me because of his stance of issues and actions in resolutions for all New Yorkers
You lived your life abundantly
You conquered uncertainty into possibilities
Your own revelation being realities
Mayor Dinkins personality had dialog
He was the first Black Mayor
His responsibilities was achievements being efforts
Mayor Dinkins was a believer in making right
Opposition always wanted to challenge in making a battle fight
But you stood the course
You were a man who had force
Heaven saw it was time
Essence fulfilled into gold
Your legacy still lives and will always be told
Heaven has your name in a secrete place
Your name in stone
Courage and Pride in having an open heart with a determined spirit
Achievement that followed being your own merit
Sleep in peace
Your job well done
Until we meet again
PIP, Peace in Paradise
Through the academic years
The feeling of uncertain and fear
Here I am on graduation day being my personal preserver
The studies were hard and long
I wondered is higher learning where I belong
There were numerous exams
Research papers imaginable
I got through it all
The lectures were focused on concise being pure concepts
It was “MIND OVER MATTER” that become concrete
I listened because they will put value in what I will become in my endeavors in life
The Cap and Gown is ready
My move forward in stepping across the stage being presented my degree
My sacrifice for the hard work that paid off
Today is that day to embrace being honored as a graduate
Holding my head up high being the reason why in accomplishment
Being committed in the establishment
The handshake from the Institution President and the kodak moment
Thanks to your friends and family for the encouragement in helping you to believe in yourself like they believe in you
As you walk through those academic doors after graduation, your education is now complete, but always venture back in reflect on your success, and how the institution help you embark on the journey
Remember these words that shall follow you, “FULFILL AND CONQUER”
Courage in ability
Determination status
Walk confident and proud
This is your time allowed
Throw your graduation cap in the air
Now go out and preserver.

Poets who say it right
Words coming out like dynamite
Poets who write Day and Night
They don’t take their words light
Poets share their experiences from plight
Determined with desire
Their own encouragement to inspire
Poets tell what they are thinking
Word connections
Own expectations
Poets alone
Words letting it be known
Poets into their crafts
Talent within
Beginning until the end
Poets are like Librarians full of word organization
The idea being appreciation
Impressing the reader with sensations
What the Poet says must be taken within
This is how writing begins
Poets write to explore
Their words are the open and close door
What you heard the Poet added think
It is always written in ink
The theory
The mystery
All for the reader to see
Poets who you don’t even know
Words are presented being show
True Poets in plain sight
What are you writing tonight?

I KNOW
preservationman Nov 2023
You made wrong decisions in your life
Do you understand in reasoning?
You thought you didn’t need advice
It is now a regret
Life experiences becomes a lesson of pitfalls to avoid
Have you truly learned?
You saw your mirror reflection
Did you see what needs to be changed?
You saw the beauty of you, but does your personality match up
Knowledge is the key to success
Do you believe in yourself in what you can do in achieving through efforts
You keep saying you know
Does understanding ring a bell in your mind?
Life is what a person makes it
It’s not complaining and doubt
Thinking of resolution in how uncertainty will be worked out
I know

FLY AWAY
Let my wings soar where the Heaven’s guide
Show me exploration into new horizons
New Frontier of a new beginning
Let the clouds cleanse within the mist
Destiny mounts
Born to fly
Into the friendly skies
Understanding wholly and wise
Through the storms I shall encounter
There is wonder as I am soaring yonder
Among the high mountains
The valley’s below
The Earth’s landscapes flow
Harmony among
Beauty seen
Yonder felt
Flight Song, “Where the wind blows, I will follow”.

TRUSTWORTHY BLUE
preservationman Apr 2023
Every word I say is trust
Every thought behind is a promise
My heart being honest
You are probably thinking in how can I be trusted?
That is for you to believe and observe
Look at my stance on value and commitment
True to my name
No shame to blame
Get to know and understand me and watch the actions confess themselves
I am not perfect and would never say
It’s a matter in not to judge, but just observe
The story in the truth
True speech and words
Trustworthy always a follow through
A can do pursue
You will know
No although
Trustworthy within itself
Trust me

SILENT SURVIVOR
preservationman Jun 2023
The depth of life
Mystery having a history
Untold story
The life of one person
Hardships
Beaten words that were never torn
Angry thorns
Unexpecting eruptions within
Approaching storms
Names beyond given
No appreciative centerpiece
Remaining strong and holding one’s own
Fought individual battles and wondered about victories
Newer complaining
Silent voice within the heart
Fortress
A story no one knew
But no matter what, head up and pursue
Man up
The moment was always the place
No pause
Smiled through circumstances
Tacked situations head on
No choice just responses
Actions
Still here
It will always be
Chosen to survive
Learning experiences in strive
A story told
Bold and behold
Survival chances

ENTER
preservationman Apr 2024
Through the mysterious
Open doors with no locks nor keys
Not a place
Not recognizable
Not an event
The Enter is too nowhere
Far out within
Once you Enter, there is no way out
You have arrived
Can’t get out
Can’t yell for help, the walls are enforced against sound
All you can do is move about
Mind wonders
Eyes wanders
Nowhere through never was
Stumbled on something you never knew
Your curiosity wants to learn more
You know no more than you know now
You entered the portal of nowhere
Go through
Entered Trap
Caught and always will remain
Nowhere forever
Enter keep
Never to return
