Do you choose your dreams
or are they ****** upon you?
most of us seem unsure
it's what dreams do

that is the source of mystery
for you become a person bold and new
transcending life's banality and finding
a stronger and clearer voice--that of the reborn you.

Anger builds, like a fire
Neglected flames only grow higher
In the heart, the intention burns
Making smoke with dark concerns
Undulating through and through
Scorching only, the inside of you

Walls
divide borders
walls
they
separate
people
they alienate

walls
do not speak
but they hurt
and torment
in their grim silence
' verboten'
' no entry'
' go away'
' you aren't one of us'

the worst of walls
are those built
around the heart
they grow impervious
they are impregnable

walls are the refuge
of those who can't feel anymore
(they might as well have faces
constructed from concrete and mortar)

because I love you
no wall do I need
I'm an open sea
ready
to  receive you
as you step into my watery bed
in the sweetest embrace
face to face
in complete silence
that calms
every single wave

love knows no barriers.

' Do you understand me?'
A most awkward question to pose
It weakens you and the addressee
Senses your insecurity-- with a sneering nose

Would come the reply:
'What do you take me for--a fool?'
Think before you speak
You command respect when you are sure and cool.

Till you can’t walk
Till you are sore,
Yet still smiling
from the thrilling experience,
Till you are sweating pleasure
from every pore.
Till your breath murmurs
my first name with every inhale
Till my voice is the only sound
your ears need to hear.

i would
rest my head on your breast
and listen
Enjoy the sweet tunes composed by
every noted word you harmonize

Tales of your life stories before they became entwined with mine
Narratives about your dreams
About who breaks your glassy heart
And what tickles your eye-ducts
into opening a flood of tears.

an inner world of wishes
she deserves beautiful things,
The Nubian Queen,
Sunflower Child.
