night fulfill
all my needs
to complete
all my deeds
night i ride
my
black steed
dressed in
a suit of
black amour
with
golden lance
in my
right hand
as i gallop
across the
milky way night

what make
this world
hunger for faith or
trumpet the voice of reason
be real for an instance
when time flows a
river backward
across the pages of time
Stu Harley Feb 2022
as
my soul
journeyed across
the
stiff
tightrope
across
the
red river gorge
where
my
legs felt like
cockatoo green bamboo stilts
that
emptied out

our
lifeline bridge
meandered
across
the
River Kaia
like
a hungry boa constrictor

faith
tippytoed
across
the
sea of hope
upon
the
thin wired

while
joggling
bowling pins of
fear and hope

faith
a journey
of
fate
where
destiny
ripples across

starlit lake

to row their boats

sometimes the
African Juju spirit
inside of me
make me
want to be like
Kunta Kinte
but
all we really
have to do
as Black Folks is
to let go of all that and a bag of chips
the
negative images and the stereotypes
have to go
so
love thyself because
we have a real beauty
deep within us
we define who we are
as a Great People
from Mother Africa
if we act naturally and
stop trying to
act like something we ain't
brother and sisters
we can do this

what is
our
inheritance
when
blind souls
capture the spirit
and
do
acts of kindness
for
the
love of humanity

when

our hearts
shall
drink
a cup
filled with sky

what sharp
angry eyes
served me
a
warm cup of
evil tea
when
you look at me
Stu Harley Mar 2015
Lord
what is
the secret of life
a gentle snow storm
the voice of spring
starlight in your smile
all the beauty
and the wonder
that we see
magnifies
the Lord
upon
the earth
so life is
truth
and
she possess
a pair of
butterfly wings
yet curious
about everything
when
truth brings
a cup of light
unto the world
Stu Harley Aug 2014
Lord
pour me
a cup of
vintage light
to see
all of thee
in the
starry nights
Stu Harley Sep 2014
light
is a friend of mine
it has
a curiousity
towards mankind
when
light ricohettes
then ripples
through the
hearts of men
this time
Stu Harley Oct 2015
evil
brings
a dark river
that
flows
through
your heart
until
it leaves
her mark

love
with
her red umbrella
dangled in the air
like a red pinata
balanced herself
and
walked across
the
thin spaghetti tight-rope
with
her frighten soul
suspended in the air
upon
her
tiny tippy toes
high in the sky
like a slippery *****
unready for death
where
love at her best
is
a
different breed of cat
i
must say
with
her
nine lives to spare
but
still
she survived
Stu Harley Mar 2019
oh

a different storm
inside of me

for
what it is worth
please
hear my call
no more hurt

restore me
only
because
a different storm
inside of me

what
lives inside of
our prayers
a voice
that is alive
a voice
that we share
but
when
we fall
to our knees
it brings me
a faith
that
i believe
is still there

We are caught
In The
Grips of time
Besieged by
All sides unkind
What price
Shall be paid
For this unconditional love
Between a father and
His only begotten son

deep
in

there
is
a place
to

Stu Harley Dec 2023
In America, it is difficult to be black
You always have to stay on track
Where are all the Black men, at
Incarcerated, must of them, Jack
Well, I made it most of the way
Hey, I got a good job, with good pay
So, I am getting married, on this day
This wedding ceremony worked out, you know, okay
Now, its time to celebrate, this way
Just friends and family to congregate, up in this place
Man, this wedding reception is great
Yeah, it is dark outside and it is getting late
I need to step outside to meditate
I got something special for my baby girl
Then, I grabbed my keys and my coat
Casually, I jet to my car
Well, I did not get very far
I heard gunshots ring through the air
So, I got nervous, with great despair
Sure, you feel the tempers flair
I see the man, packing the heat
You feel the anger in these streets
The words began to shout, no doubt
Boy, put your hands up, behind your head, before we roll out
We have no problem here, Mr. Man
I just want to get some stuff out my car
The policeman said no, then pointed the assault weapon, at my head
Now, freeze, step down, and put that body on the ground
Then, I reached down for my car keys, with my left hand
*****, those bullets blasted out, like jet rockets
Suddenly, they burst a few rounds, up inside of me
I receive multiple bullets from my head to my knees
They decided not to incarcerate me,
Instead, they invited me to this 50 bullet wedding, without the bride or groom

need a whale
of a tale

Lord
give me
a fish to share with the world
and
i
will feed the hungry world
with
my heart and soul
i
just want to serve you
i
submit to you
through
your
forgiveness, love and mercy
please
give me
a fish to share with the world

once upon a time
a priest
with
a heart of gold
built a church
underneath a bridge
where
the
homeless lived
for
the
love of God
he
wanted to share
to
keep hope alive
like a
flower of kindness
Stu Harley Oct 2016
lord
there
is
a fountain of faith
that
dwelleth
in
thy heart
and
beneath
it surface
is
everlasting
love
mercy
compassion
dedication
and
service
to
thy lord
glory hallelujah
peace be still
Stu Harley Jan 2017
if
my soul
a quiet place
let
it be
a fountain of joy
i
shall not erase

no one
ever said
that
you are
afraid of blue sky
but
you wings
uplift you up
from
off the ground
where
you can see
earth and moon
and
we
sometimes
watch the stars go by

American Flag

sound of
The National Anthem

papaya whip clouds

Stu Harley Oct 2020
we
shall
embrace each other
to keep warm
we shall
fill up the sky
with
our
golden wings
we shall
color our dreams
with
the
cosmic stream
and
we
shepard our love
on the other side
after
the storm
Stu Harley Mar 2016
all of the bird
that sing
and
let us praise
His holy name
with
every bell
that
we ring
let it ring out loud
and
ring the highest note
to
praise God out loud
with
every bell
that we ring
faith swells
and
i just wanna
thank you, lord
for the blessings
again and again

starlings
sharpen
their
wing
again and again
drift pitch and roll
thus
tumble
through

Stu Harley Apr 2014
even though
i lost
my sight
alone the way
the Lord
guide me
here to pray
my faith is here
to stay
you fill my heart
with light
again
on a winter's day
Stu Harley Jul 2014
death carves out
a place
between space and time
death walks through
the night
in opposition to
the will of God and
His might
death hold up
her black umbrella
to shield against
the storm of trust
against heaven's light
Stu Harley Sep 2017
sky break
her
eyes stay cold
but
we
bend
and
lean
against
the
soul of the sea
still
witness
the
beauty
inside of thee
