DARKENED POETRY
preservationman Apr 2023
Dark Night
Write of Day
Words slurring
Sentences becoming like a black curtain
Certain not being certain
Night fright block
****** Moon
Word attack
Sentences attempting in fact
Alpha letter A being a fierce raging animal
Hungry for words to relief the craze
Beware what you read
It is up to you in how you will proceed
Letters at a time in big screams
The scene has been set
Thunder and Lightning making you scare
Beware
Unexpected could be your fear
The Devil wants to know you better
He wants Blood but less chatter
One bite to feel nourished
Devil teeth
No relief
The night of torment and no rest
No peace
Fiery on every turn
Suddenly morning arrived with a sunrise in sight
The Devil departed before the sun even started to come up
Non-existence
Beyond recognizable
No longer able
Darkened became humans rise
New Day
Is the ordeal over and could it start all over again?
Darkened Poetry lurks Day and Night
Will you be seen writing in sight?
Darkened
Lights out

A SHOE WITH SOLE
preservationman Jul 2023
Step out
Walk on
Imagine distance
Courage in an instance
Circumstance through situation
Determination with participation
Sole together
Strong and sturdy in all leather
Shoes tell your story
Accomplishment with all its glory
The miles you left behind
Life that was kind
The times you tried to run
Those times weren’t all fun
That makes your soles different
The creation of significance
Identity of how you and soles weathered many storms
A when from then
Tomorrow turned into current
Soles on duty
Adventure through triumphant
Victory through honor
Soles on
Leather held up
Shoe in

HERE I AM LORD
Front and Center
Needing your guidance
Wanting your wisdom and understanding
I Stand
I Bow
I pray
The uncertainty I feel
A tomorrow I don’t
Today being a question
Needing your direction
I am a servant from a spiritual family
Society speaks of another king
But I know you are the true and sustaining Savior
Foundation strong
I am in your hands where I belong

I am often criticized
I stand as a Christian Warrior Soldier
Faith focused
Praying for all mankind
You are the Savior always honest and genuine
Merciful and kind
There are times of doubt
That needs to be worked out
Open my understanding
Let the spiritual virtues cut through all the struggles
Firm and solid
Turn my enemies into my foot stool

S T O R Y T I M E
preservationman Aug 2020
Once upon a time
As I was sipping my wine
The clock struck 12
I saw with my own eyes elves
I didn’t know what to think
Perhaps I was thinking on a story I read in ink
But all during while
I knew this situation wasn’t my style
I tried to stand up
But felt back on my couch
I might have been drunk
But my mind is thinking, it is all bunk
Yet, the elves were surrounding me
At least that is what I could see
Maybe my mind was focusing on a fairytale
My wine could very well have been ale
But not in the ginger tense
Suddenly I began to drift off
Journey I was
Venture into the unknown
Land of where
But my mind was getting me nowhere
So my drift was into my bed
I felt asleep instead
The elves I didn’t remember
Perhaps I was somber
I am not going to even wonder

DARKNESS BLANK
preservationman Apr 2024
Trapped within a color shade
Pitch
Uncertain through the eye waves
Searching with no find
No glance of light
In a plight
Feeling here and there
Open space to nowhere
No touch to determine
Darkened journey
Thinking alone
No light
No sight
How does one fine their way?
Hoping and trying to grasp
There is no question for me to ask
In a maze
Loss not found
Widening directions
Can’t see anything
All amaze
Maneuvering about
Totally black
Imaging the moment if I was blind
Feeling a Blind person’s blow
I must take it nice and slow
Dark in and throughout
Darkness in control
Stuck in my own threshold
Like it or not
Darkness wins out

THE AUTHOR'S MIND
preservationman Aug 2021
A story coming on
Characters placed where they belong
Words forming the narration
The results being the objective
Dialog carefully put together
Letters formulated from the alphabet
A time with hours of write
The idea came through the night
Alone in thought
Inspiration of sought
As the words opened up
A theory appeared
It was romance being a test
But there was an interruption
War took place
It wasn't a warrior war
It was a struggle of two hearts
Together became separate
The words behind were the illustrate
The storm of two minds
Don't speak
Retreat
My mind is starting to grow weak
The emotions have no thought
Standing alone tormented
Leave me
My sunset has settled down
Don't look for me as I can't be found
Path's go in different roads
This wasn't something that was previously told
This is what the soul took hold
We were only yesterday
But I now know my tomorrow
I am sorrow less
This is my confess
Love was only a moment
My days have formed live
All I am seeing is adjectives
Good-bye
preservationman Apr 2020
This is something I need to share
While the world holds far, I hold close the Lord near
Yet I am weary and I get very teary
I am currently on a Temporary Furlough collecting unemployment
This life, there is really no enjoyment
I feel like I am in *******
In fact, it feels like being in hostage
I know I am not the only one
I feel my life is truly over and done
I think suicide throughout and don’t want to be among
Yet I know God is able
But it’s gets harder to be stable
I feel I am under punishment
I try to continue to put God as a commitment
But even with that, I am not assured
Yes, I pray and read the Bible in scriptures involving the Lord
But I am still not assured
I am a Born Again Christian and have been for many years
I still have no idea in these times in why I even still preserver
I know God is in control
Between Trump and the Media makes it harder to take hold
I am thinking at this moment to stop doing my bus dedication, writing which I enjoy
Perhaps I should be drowning with the outbound tide
Why should I live and even try
My inner soul right now is in a cry
I really need encouragement
Friends who I thought were friends don’t even call
I have been a true friend to all
However, I am not lonely
My tomorrow seems an end
I can’t even amend
Others constantly say I am blessed
But my mind says I could care less
Again, I need true encouragement
I need words that I can use to guide me
I know there is a world the Lord wants me to continue to see
For right now, I will just let be.

SOONER THAN YOU THINK
The thought of Biblical Revelation
Voice of Prophecy
One twinkle
Time ever accelerating in revolving
Be ready ever so ready
Observe the signs
Watch as the clouds surround in formation
Pay close attention
The anticipation
Strong indication
The world’s fate
Kneel and pray before it is too late
Fulfillment on target
Brightness turns to darkness
The Thunder roars
Lightning flashes
The Almighty speaks
Tomorrow’s settlement
Buckle up for the journey
Moment of soon
The sun declines with no shine
Keep that in mine
Doom on the horizon
The stop watch carefully capturing the hours and seconds
Clocks will stop
Tick tack no more
Moment of truth
Steady at ready

YOU ASKED
preservationman Aug 2021
You asked
I answered
But was there truth?
There is a wonder
Yet no assurance
Total meaningless
No enduring kiss
It was like a sail
But came was a fail
Don't ask
You have no precise answer
Even the Moon laughs
Everything being a joke
I was hoping promise
But you can't even be honest
So away with you
Don't ask
I answered my own question

FLYING G
preservationman Mar 2024
It’s a Hound Dog, a bus or plane?
It’s the Flying G on the Runway Lane
Did you know Greyhound’s know how to fly?
I will explain the reason why
At one point, Greyhound dog legs leaped to the friendly skies with wings
Yes, you read right wings
The Greyhound Bus Company that was the Canadian version of Greyhound Air
A flying machine
People don’t relate the bus company to the air
It was a company beyond compare
People thought that the Greyhound bus company was grounded to the highways, but the Hound Dog was seen in the air along with the other major airlines
Just imagine a Flight Attendant voice welcoming you aboard Greyhound Air in fasten your seat belts and observe no smoking
Flying G with up and down wheel gears
Have no fear, the Flying G will help preserver
However, the airline ceased operations in 1993
The flying G was the way to go
Now you know
The Hound was always the highway flow now, but a slower pace
You will always see Greyhound’s in their race
As for the travelling passenger, it becomes an out of breath chase
Trying to keep up the Greyhound pace.

I really don’t have to explain
I will make it simple and plain
I was created with a purpose
But isn’t it that obvious?
You question my thinking
But do you possess my understanding
You don’t have my experience
I was taught through influence
My motives being precise in detail
Yes, I have gone through pass and fail
But that is not the purpose of my trail
I always try to better myself
I don’t copy everybody else
I set the example because I am the example
That says a lot within itself
My compel is my direct hitch
Yes I have a achieved a bunch
So you think you know me
There is a lot you don’t know
But I don’t need to show
Just observe and watch me maneuver
I am participate, but don’t hesitate

STRANDED
preservationman Jun 2021
Stranded and alone
It happened at a Rest Stop
Travelling on a Motor Coach Bus
I wasn’t paying attention
The bus left me and I was stranded
I was nowhere near any town
I was going it alone being nowhere bound
My clothes were on that missed bus
My mind wants to curse
But it was my fault so why fuss?
So I have no changing clothes
My only plan is to hitchhike
At least my thumbs are in good shape
You hear all kinds of mysterious hitchhike stories
I don’t want to become a statistic
At least I am being realistic
So I am starting to walk down route 15 under the night skies
Yet this lesson has taught me understanding and thinking wise
At least it is a clear night
The Moon is ever shining bright
But no movement of anything in sight
Total darkness with no lamp and flashlight
I could very way be loss
But that is the price one pays when you get stranded
Destiny looks farther and farther
Reality check is starting to settle in
If I were to tell my story I wouldn’t know where to begin
Now I am stranded and alone
Nowhere bound
Surrounded by peace with no sound
Will I ever be found?
A Trailer Truck cruising and I am flagging him down
I don’t know if I will ever arrive at my destination
But you see my dilemma as my presentation
I did get your attention
I am walking down the road under the guidance of the moon
Morning will be coming soon
So into an uncertain path
Walking with surviving in mine
The beginning in the after
Journey on into journey’s end

No one really knows

Inspiration at heart
Determination to coming from the valley to climbing in reaching the mountain top

WHAT MAKES A POET?
preservationman Dec 2019
It was tomorrow it was and today that came
A distance organizing
Satisfice and realize
Truth and Dare
Preparing and working out emotions
It was sitting on a dock and observing the ocean
As the waves advanced
Only a true Poet knows opportunity being the chance
Words always come to the Poet’s mind
It’s like the sun and moon that intertwine
But it takes the sentences and words to make shine
A bottle of superior wine is elegance in what words suggest
Yet the word Poet is the writing crest
Heart and love for words leading to ability
The Poet comes from within and expels out
Pride and assurance
Enduring being a Poet’s endurance
It’s not what is in the Poet’s wallet, but the unique way in what’s on the Poet’s mind?
What are your words that need to come out?
Let me hear you even if it is a shout
It’s no surprise as the Poet is it’s own enterprise
A mission to write and words to conquer
Going where no one dared to try
Heavy emotions with a pour out cry
I am a Poet and this is why.
Several voices
From the seas to the mountains
Valleys to the shores
Liberty and Freedom
Forefathers before us in their wisdom
The Constitution
“We The People”
Standing on principles on solid ground
America’s Legislative bible
Value of our rights in continuation
The tone and setting
The White House honoring
The Senate Uphold
Again, We the people
Granted and expelled
Our Rights
We are the component of government
Angled words being heard
Power in multitude
Never a conclude
Having prove
Left and Right
Govern Principle
Lifting every voice
Exercising strength
Utterance no longer tolerance
Strong in endurance
We and Up to the people
One Nation under God

DOUBTFUL EYES

You said you believe in me
But your eyes have a question I see
My gesture is my speech
It becomes no trust
I am being honest
But you lack confidence
What do I have to do to gain your trust?
I am not going to argue and fuss
I am sincere as I can be
But you keep questioning me
Doubt shouldn’t be on your mind
I bring peace
You should listen to me at least
I stated who I am and about
I am a person who believes in integrity
That is my reality
So commitment I stand on
That is how I have been getting along
But you still have doubt
That is something you will have to work out
Trust is my humanly soul
It wasn’t something that I was told
My trust being my confession
I guess this concludes my lesson

The stars don’t twinkle
The Moon doesn’t shine

My ears in not hearing

Yet I have been mocked
My scaled is unbalanced

Once upon an idea
Prosperity used to come near
My life is nothing more than Death
Decay on target
Despair is my journey
Doubt being my adventure

It felt like a race during time
Every hour the clock would sound
But human mechanics wasn’t getting anywhere bound
The long hand looked like it was moving fast
The short hand actually remaining still
Foot maneuvering steps felt like it had no will
Time was definitely moving
Breathless became no sooth
But there was something humans had to prove
It was a matter of time
Electronics moved organized than human power
Hour by hour
Minute by minute
How does one beat time?
Unless one is the Marvel Flesh
One who could dash
Challenge being a struggle
Human speed being its own pace
There is time for a soft drink
Not waiting to think
If time has its way
We can all go astray
The time is mine
Maybe being too kind
The time schedule is just fine
Time and time again
Time out.

The story of a sleep seen asleep
The same city full of life awake
The ever changing of the skyscraper landscapes
The words and sentences blend in with no pretend
Endless miles of a city being no end
Photographic instincts
But with beauty and contrast
It’s the words that bring any city alive being intrigued to last
Turning with varying angles
A fruit stand man selling refreshing mangles
A city that doesn’t seem to age
However, it is the assortment and lights that always seem to amaze
A photo shot here and there
But it is the writer beyond compare
Smile, I captured the moment, and could be Candle Camera
But words that stood out with this title, “Any City being for sure, but it is the photo’s that standout being center core”
Show me the words, and I will illustrate a city that many only heard about
Photogenic, you have to be in it
So continue to stand tall all the skyscrapers in the world
It doesn’t matter if it is downtown, midtown or anywhere in between around town, it’s the words themselves that add to the marvel sight
However, it is the night where the skyscrapers shine bright
Flash here and click there
Words to view by
But photographic in every try

No one ever knows what tomorrow unless you live within the day before
A tomorrow of promise, purpose and determination
Tomorrow preparing which you didn’t finish the day before

Descending souls to a different tomorrow of everlasting
Only wonder

Tomorrow of tolerance

THE CENTER OF THE STORM
preservationman May 2020
A story of a farm man
Acres upon acres of farmland in demand
A house that stood alone
A storm came up being unknown
Clouds gathered in a sudden darkness, which made the sun quickly disappear
Suddenly, the rain poured and flashes of lightning
Later, the Thunder added to the weather tumblence
Without warning,a  man at the farm center was struck
But miraculously, the man was only knocked down
However, a miracle seemed to take place
The man always complained about back pain
The pain was insane
But the man who had been struck by lightning, the back pain was gone
He was able to bend, twist and turn without any discomfort
The man had gone to the Doctor without any relief
In fact, it was pure grief
Right after the storm had passed, the man’s back pain was free
The Medical Doctor said they needed to operate, but he may not ever walk again
But notice operate
But once the storm came, the man got a spiritual healing from Surgeon, Dr. Healer and Finisher.

Sustaining struggles, one will get relief
Keep on living, and you shall find out
Daily as you move about
Some people will quickly doubt
Like it or not
God will always be
Rejoice says he
Observe and see
People will say Earthly words unbelievable
Impossible is sure to come up
One sip of spiritual refresh will change minds
Hook up Heaven connection
Required love in honor of affection
Your house communicated to God’s house
Your option
Opportunity
Totally up to you
Suggestion from Heaven in what you should do
God said it

Brooklyn, NY Brownstone
Artificial Christmas Tree
Glitter in ornaments and décor
Christmas Cards were hung all through the house
The thought of living to Christmas among
All that happened when I was young
My Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in Silver would be circling the Christmas Tree
That was the Christmas for me
It was everything it was supposed to be
The Brownstone Christmas had detail with family and friends
There was no pretend
During those years, I didn’t want Christmas to end
Christmas being the center of the heart core
Sheer galore
Brooklyn, NY Christmas will always be remembered
Joy full of everlasting in my heart
Bethlehem Star has carried me far
Merry to experience and Joy to embrace.

THE CITY OF NEW ORELANS
preservationman Jun 2020
It is a major city
But in this case, it’s Amtrak’s version of the city of New Orleans
The train travels through the Dixie and into the Ozarks
Mountains and trees that compliment the rails
Station stop in various parts in between being the destination trails
The City Of New Orleans having that Jazz feel
Rhythm within the train and pulsating onto the rails
The diesel engine is steadily pulling
Destination on impact with fulfilling
The Southern scent of the Deep South
Creole cooking that would excite any Traveller’s mouth
Welcome guest South
The City of New Orleans led the way
Now fellow Travellers, New Orleans is your getaway

Love me today and well into everlasting
Let our kiss be amore

Everlasting is in our heart
We are the Love in lead

THANK YOU
preservationman Apr 2024
Thank you Lord, I live
It was affirmative
Tomorrow was no finale
I was granted live
Testimonial for the world to see
Life’s wonders that surrounded me
There was plenty of doubt
The impossible proved moving about
Tomorrow directed on continuous
To some people, it makes them furious
Actually serious
Nonetheless, I live
Blessing gave
Faith uplifted
Thank you

WRITE ME A SONG
preservationman Sep 2021
Show me where time went
It’s my time being well spent
Take me to journey’s end
Help me understanding in depend
Show me the rivers flow
Let it be like the Bayou that overflow
The sun being the inspiration
Cloudy days are only a disappointment to overcome
Tomorrow being newness
One soul the witness
What will be
Something to see
Every road leading to a destination
Hope being the rise and shine
It surrounds Faith combined
Life into truth
It all began around youth
The heart understands, but Heaven knows
Given voices and words
They are Theories to be heard
Hear the distance sounds
It’s here and there bound
The song is gentle and sweet
The vision of words in a tweet
The song has been played
The heart already relayed
It happened on any day
Come Closer
Your life fulfilled was accomplished
