I am with this universe revolving
through the black expanse where time folds in on itself
dissolving the mysteries speaking for all of the majesty seen
destiny renewing the expanse expanding
looking for a big bang
praying when needing it or thinking It might help
the yelp I scream not heard for
We are traveling and  the speed of light is
so much faster than the speed of sound

I admire you tree
never having to bend or look laterally or do you
doubt
your meaning?

Reaching for blue skies with limbs
leaving root digging determinity
earth drenched brown bark strong seeming
godly.

I am so blue, looking at you so calm and distant
composed with no worries only a day again to make oxygen
feeding man.

You leave and seed and sprout proud, purposed on this earth
never doubting and  so,
I would like to bow to you. Tree.

Take us a tumble into arms of another countries rubble while we tweet about a Kardashian wearing some revealing dress on a red carpet while massacres go on around this land, on minimum wage we air again Wal-mart's latest offerings a chartreuse meandering, I think I'll get my nose pierced. Buy the newest I-phone.  Hope it comes in yellow.
Jews **** Hamas and Iraqi's again are opposed by ISIS or Saddam?
Let us arm the cops with video. So the next time a black man runs, all will be exposed. Let us show on Your tube and mine on you tube or time the next one to die and be left four and a half hours dead. In the middle of the ******* road.

The first seed
contains all potentially
personality
powerful feelings
exploding
big bangs
a universe newly created
expanding
silent cadences
for who can hear
dashes and dots
arranged to spell the moon
an echo infinite
into four dimensions
grows
one thought
one seed

count
    1,2,3
again, relax
     it's
not that bad.

Sing
    do da dee
again, collapse
       if
you need to.

Pout
   wee, woe, is me
again, get it all out.
       it's
not really that
        meaningful.

every now and then
    seasons run together
the sun comes up just when it is setting
     and it all seems to get better.

Once in life it comes
    breakfast served just as lunch
is done, all are so sated
    and it all comes together.

Every once in life
     the reasons are related known
and it all becomes so
       vividly correlated.

a tree
more than beautiful,
more meaningful
than me,
leafy,
green naked standing alone
barks bared in  yards or parks or forests
forgotten, to him
it means nothing,
a will to survive,
is all I see in common
and seeds sown
on the trail behind,
As I wish I was planted,
with a place
mine.

This is a poem, though, no poet wrote it!
Just I, see a needing to be wrote out .
So, I say it, it's about
bleeding heart wrenching
doubt. It has occupied my thought,
all day.
I just had to do it.
So, trying to recall all of it, without
missing a beat, I
started writing this. Hell, now
i think I forgot
what it was all about!

Put your hands up, walk back slowly, suspects of what?

We were driving through Louisiana, returning to Alabama
after  visiting a dying friend.

The Highway Patrol doing, I guess their duty,
got behind us, we saw it coming in the rear-view mirror.

We braced, knowing two black men, only
riding I-20, because of our skin color, in 2014, were suspect.

Stopped, we told our stories, since they were the same,
we were just given a ticket, DWB.

Drivin' while Black.
