What shape so furtive steals along the dim
Bleak street, barren of throngs, this day of June;
This day of rest, when all the roses swoon
In Attic vales where dryads wait for him?
What sylvan this, and what the stranger whim
That lured him here this golden afternoon;
Ways where the dusk has fallen oversoon
In the deep canyon, torrentless and grim?

Great Pan is far, O mad estray, and these
Bare walls that leap to heaven and hide the skies
Are fanes men rear to other deities;
Far to the east the haunted woodland lies,
And cloudless still, from cyclad-dotted seas,
Hymettus and the hills of Hellas rise.

he,who i like
though so crazythough so personal,
I now suspect thats not all,
I now suspect that Im about to fall for something feirce I cannot say,
for because of him I have gone estray thinking of me,
or i with him,
if I was forward with the truth
would he say he could feel the same way

Like the flower that sprouts in April
And buds in early May
To rise up to the golden sun
And bloom on a bright June day
I rose up to your golden light
in search for something more
yet all I found was nothing, even down to your core
Your empty promises wilted me
Like a flame to a burning match
Still I grapsed on for the life of me
when you hardly stayed attached
So as fall came around the corner
my leaves had blown estray
even as a small seed I still waited
to see if you'd be back the next day
but soon enough it got colder
and clouds blocked your radiant light
so as I fell dormant, in powdered snow
I watched you trail out of sight.
As March soon came into view, the ice melted into rain
the soil blessed me with new roots
My petals felt new, though they were the same
Letting go brought pain in the moment
and there's no way of knowing when,
You too will have your spring
and you too will start again.

I hear oppose
It is followed by suppose
Hatred throughout in response
I was born with a lesson
The World won’t be nice
I was raised on advice
Oppose said, “I will always be a Slave”
Now be quite it and behave
I am no Slave to anyone
My name is “Freedom”
I stand on the grounds of Independence and Mobility
You can’t stop where I already arrived
Heaven understands, but why don’t you?
You are stuck on woes
Oh
My timing being just right
It’s my understanding in plain sight
Oppose
You don’t want me to achieve nor establish
You feel frightened that I will go where you have no courage
I am nourished by Faith
I am Black
I totally stand on that
I learned but you are trying to figure out
You worry and that is what it is all about
You want to justify
But you want me to beg and cry
Every struggle is a determination to pull through
Pursue
I am guided by God Day and Night
He relishes me with his Mighty light
Oppose
Blessings Reign
You block, but I have a strategy
You criticize, but I am yet inspired
Knowledge is a gift
It’s not on if
You speak so much nay
I hear echoes of numerous positive arrays
You can beat me until my flesh is no more
Heaven will even the score
I see the sunrise in the distance
I am embraced within an instance
I lived for this every day
The Stars and Moon give me the ultimate hope
Even though you oppose
My suppose is a purpose
You are stuck on evil ways
I will move swiftly estray
One day your tomorrow of oppose will end
It will be a new day to begin
Oppose will be replaced with suppose
Determination and Destiny my story
Glory mounted in the skies
You already loss the struggle, but I have achieved the victory
You can Oppose No More.

Praying being the only way
No time for going estray
Praying is vital every day
Perilous times
A world that refuses to be kind
Pretend with no genuine
Uncertain ways
Surely during these uncertain days
A world that is corrupt
That is not the Lord’s make up
Faith embraces joy and peace
The world needs to believe that at least
Love that has gone to hate
Not God’s appreciate
This the world must hesitate
Accept him before it’s too late
Earth to the Kingdom
The Lord is wise
Our spirit can be energized
The Almighty I must emphasize
Promise and purpose goes along way
Certain on every bound
Hallelujah having a sound
The removal of the doubted curtain

Praying is the key
Understanding is what you will see
It comes from Thee
Breaking barriers that hold some in the world back
God knows how to keep track
Overcoming and sustaining
Boundaries that the world has put before them
God is strength in climbing mountains
Rise from the valley’s below
Don’t need to be there
God is preserver
Always near
We need to share
Praying with a purpose and reason
Watch your blessing rise to the surface
Can and shall
The Lord doesn’t want anyone to parish
Something we need to cherish

The world thinks tomorrow
Holds on to sorrow
The Lord says rise
Be strong
Again, pray being sincere
Honest and true
The God’s pursue
The world to fulfill
Pray openly from your heart
The start
Don’t reject from God
That’s a depart
That wouldn’t be smart
Pray until
God’s will
Let the praying begin
Having no end
Observe and see
It’s all about Thee
Praying is the only option
Purpose and redemption
Faith will become strong
The Lord wants us to get along
Trust and don’t cease
Believe in the Lord at least
God is love
Everything one can think of
Pray until
Only option being God’s will.

Sturdy and Strong
Perfection
But is your Faith that sturdy?
The church building is solid
The rock in which we all stand
Faith should be just that concrete
Through the mortar and brick
Any church’s stance thick
Blessings come to only who is spiritually connected
Do you fit the mold?
You must take hold
The foundation into faith within
Then to now
Can?
Transcend
Built on hope and trust
A promise extending into must
Sustaining in willing
What if?
Knew how?
Would you?
Foundation the true format
A spiritual map leading the way
Stand strong and estray
Everything will be ok
Biblical has that way

Food with a twist
Eating being a miss
A Duck that went into the oven
There was no need for stuffing
Suddenly the Duck flew out the oven and hit the ceiling
When the host went to check
No Duck in the oven having an effect
As the host bent over at the oven, the Duck felt from the ceiling onto the host head
The guest was served Hamburgers instead
Rice that was cooked on the stove
There was too much Rice in the ***
It was like it or not
Rice that couldn’t be served
No Cookbook and the host got what they deserved
It was a won’t get it meal
Reality came to life for real
Poetry Food took its place
You now know the trace
Poetry moment of food face to face
It goes to show that nothing is fault proof
It’s amazing that the Duck didn’t go through the roof
Food of that sort I will stay away
The best word to describe is estray.

The past
Living
The life
Old Brownstone
Where life began
My Grandparent
Tenderness love
Total inspiration
Embraced aspirations
My Grandmother would often say, “Follow Heaven and you will reach devoted everlasting”
Grandson, you will be someone memorable all possible
You will see many wonders throughout your living years
Direct approach into preserver
There were tears at times
My learning was all fine
The Old Brownstone had all kinds of memories
Family love and family being family
I always believed in myself
Trustful and honor
My own inner beauty seen beyond reflection
I paid attention
My surface enriched
Holy and mellow
I am that fella
My life unlocked
Through the thorns uncertain
Removing the closed curtain
Detours and off ramps
Back on track
Pure fact
The brownstone showed me the way
I had no reason to go estray
Life is what you make it
Last chance to get it right
The thoughts day and night
Brownstone guidance
Brooklynite vibe
Fulfilled

Where the Witch goes the broom follows
Enter the Evil witch
Twitch after twitch
Casting spells
Incantations in change
Flying on her broom
Causing Terror and doom
No sight to see
Take it from me
Evil Witch full of fire
Even the Devil himself has no desire
From the castle of Evergreen Way
One escape running estray
Towns people stay away
The Evil Witch turns people into stone
I had to let it be known
For the Witch, it is just that simple
The reason being she is able
Commotion everywhere
Just “Beware”

Follow the waves
Ship maneuver with care
You will feel at times dips
Seasick tip
Ups and down
Nausea could be found
Oceans in control
The ocean showing ships behold
Ship to shore nowhere to be found
Lighthouses along the way
Captains always pay attention and don’t let your eyes go estray
Seagulls will be flying overhead making all kinds of sounds
Ocean journeys in and out
Ships everywhere moving about
Oceans can be called seas
Miles of depth of waters to see
Skies above
The Heavens to think of
Ocean feel
All for real
Ocean to ships
Smooth sailing
Ship Ahoy

Pray and observe
Today and not tomorrow
You need to be prepared
I am being fair
The day will come
Judgement on the Earth
New birth
Change your ways
Don’t go from my goodness estray
The outlook is coming down upon the Earth
Chosen will be lifted up
Heaven the target
Goodness in my market
Roam with Heaven with me
Heaven is definitely a place to see
This is where I want all to be
Rejoice
Blessing with praise
Amaze
Some people will refuse
They are just confused
My Thunder is a message of listen up
My lightning with be ready
Hold Steady
The signs of my coming
The times closing in
Jesus Arrival
The Almighty Marvel
Hold on my children
The wait won’t be long
Heaven is where all belong

A voice that made it clear
You are not welcomed here
The voice sounding like a beating with a Slave Whip
Lies Lies Lies that just don’t fit
Drama trying to unfold
Do as you are told
My name is solid and I am bold
My voice exercising my right
I don’t live within plight
My moment my time
Devoted and genuine
Freedom and Expression being no charge
Your outlook being a question
Personality having no suggestion
I am governed Heavenly
I don’t beckon to lack of understanding
I am meant for higher ground
Accomplishment is what I achieved in sound
Fresh Air and new beginnings surround
Drama is meant for Broadway
I am the voice of estray
You are forbidden to enter
I stand as concrete
Your voice didn’t defeat
Loss your way
I am better than you know
Your words relished so what
My although is superior to your uncertain comprehension
Your drama wants attention
The curtain came down with no presentation
Learn from your mistakes
A Chicken can only run if he thinks he can escape
It becomes fate
Get a clean heart without a cold stature
Observe the mirror and make a change
End Of Emotion

I was loss in the vast wilderness
Trying to find my way
Here I am
Had no idea how I even got loss
I saw something and wanted to investigate
I guess that would be source of why I am in this situation
I wondered into the woods
I am where I stand
The sunset is taking effect and slowly going down
Darkness came quickly
I knew I was in the wrong direction
I worried and cried
I am giving anything a try
How would I find my way
I am so far into the woods and off the trail estray
I glanced at the Moon
It was as if the Moon was guiding me through the woods
The Moon showed me my own reelection
That was the right direction
Every step I made I felt caution
I wasn’t even thinking about being rescued
I knew I had to get back to the trail and onto the campgrounds where I was
Praying in between seemed to help
I knew I wasn’t alone
I saw a light in the distance, and it was the trail leading to the camp
Suddenly, I was back at camp and there were search parties looking for me
However, I arrived back safely and was welcomed back by my friends
The Moon’s wisdom and Heaven’s timing made everything alright.

USA busway
East Coast to West Coast
Greyhound Bus vision
Lots of scenery in reason
It took four days
Hour by Hour
Time didn’t sour
That is what I call a vacation getaway
I reclined and was relaxed
No stress nor perplexed
Major cities and towns stopped along the way
No carry nor care in being estray
The hound bus with the scent for the open road
It was the scenery through the picture windows that unfolded
Hound bus headlights at night being the guide
Ever so close to the destination ride
The thought of “Get in touch with America up close”
Mountains high and wide
Taking the highway in stride
Boldness of America
Another thought of GO WEST YOUNG MAN
Took a chance and did just that
I can surely contest
Pure travel my confess
From the East to West
Adventure says it best
Journey in and out
That’s how my East Coast and West Coast about.

Mountains are not easy to climb, but one must be determined
Obstacles become circumstances
Challenging yourself through endurance
Staying positive working through negative influence
A mission one must pursue
Distance far and beyond
Standing on your own morals and disciplines
Dr. King’s voice said, “I am going to win”
Civil Rights Movement caught the attention of the world and Washington
Enough was Enough of being deprived
It was time to receive dignity like any other Ethnic group
We must continue the fight in Dr. King’s legacy as the work is not done
Dr. King made his commitment and fought a good fight
His devotion of Civil Rights must continue in all of our efforts
Dr. King is looking down on us from the Mountain Top
We must fulfill where Dr. King loss his life and strive in his honor
Hold steady
It’s not over
We must succeed going forward and not pause
Standards are what we can demand
Freedom is our right
Living shouldn’t be to have or not plight
Darkness is what holds us back
Light directs our inspired path
Truth is what needs to be recognized
Having an agenda that must be emphasized
Together strong
The Heaven’s wants us to get along
Gods create
Love embarked being appreciate
The world relishes on hate
That is something to anticipate
Tomorrow seeing a vision
A future bright with a fulfilling sunrise and sunset
All the goodness adding to the effect
Every challenge a break through
Every struggle guided through pray
Every blessing a lesson
Make one prove, and the mission is on the move
Dr. King was definitely a leader
Getting everyone to see his agenda
Showing be solid as a rock, “We shall not be moved”
Dr. King had everything to prove
No matter what storm came his way
He was going to finish his promise and not estray
Dr. King has gone on to his reward
Remembrance in Dr. Kings inflection
He started his commitment
Let’s continue on his dream

How can I pay you?
You always come through
When struggles arise
Overcoming surprise
The blessing energized
Circumstance
Resolution advanced
I don’t lead to my understanding
I let your goodness be sustaining
You keep your promise
Your biblical words are honest
I am a witness
Thank you for your forgiveness
Your presence always obvious
You never have a bad day
Your uplift in every way
Don’t understand why people go estray
That’s ok as they will return
You will take any person back in
Your heart doesn’t have an end
You don’t pretend
Enrich me now
Have all power in wow
I lift my hands in praise
Thank you for this day.

Heaven calling the people on Earth
Your disobedient ways
Your spiritual estray
Destruction into ashes
Heaven’s wrath
You were told to obey my words
Closed ears nothing heard
You thought it was all a joke
Every given world spoke
Act on your own fear
Soon there I will be near
You felt from Grace
You were warned time after time
The Kingdom above has spoken
The Earth denied over and over again
The clock will suddenly stop
Earthquakes will begin
This will be the Earth’s end
No life among
Flesh transitioned into Soul’s
Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust
Fallen Kingdom Earth
Today a reminder
Tomorrow could become Earth’s reality.
