"fadin" poems
I'm cupid wounded,
'Cause this love was misconstrued.
You stabbed an arrow through my heart,
I still can't remove it.
Love is small,
yet we all fall into it.
It shouldn't be a game,
Yet somehow I end up losin'.
And now I'm faded,
And it seems the scars are fadin'.
The time we spent in love,
Is replaced with this hatred.
Angels turn to pagans,
and these sins become sanctioned,
I've got demons on my shoulders,
The lips of Hades at my tragus.

Come gather ’round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You’ll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin’
Then you better start swimmin’ or you’ll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin’
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won’t come again
And don’t speak too soon
For the wheel’s still in spin
And there’s no tellin’ who that it’s namin’
For the loser now will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin’
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don’t stand in the doorway
Don’t block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There’s a battle outside and it is ragin’
It’ll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin’
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don’t criticize
What you can’t understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly agin’
Please get out of the new one if you can’t lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin’
The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is rapidly fadin’
And the first one now will later be last
For the times they are a-changin’

Dark nights trade lights between stars and skyscrapers
Bar liquors and odd favors, lingering thoughts to dry papers
In a laundromat where fiends stay at 'til they find their change
And exchange life stories of wars that are strange
To some, deranged folks pile up quarters for a dime
Peace, reminisce on simpler times before they hooked on crime
I, wonder when it was that their dreams started fadin'
Up late in corners are the insomniacs tradin'
Chemical mixtures in the same churches they prayed in
Now they seek aid in gateway drugs to unveil
The gates to Heaven after they've done jail
Sentences diminishin' what's left of their presence
In a sense, innocence leaves no room for vengeance
Against the cash that rules, souls, gold chains and jewels
Late nights in swimmin' pools of miseries and dues
Drawn in my notebooks on a midnight cruise

Sit still, now, chil’,
While I untangle this mess -
You ain’t goin’ swimmin’
‘til it’s all in braids,
The mo’ naps you got,
The mo’ hair you lose,
I’m ti’ed of strugglin’
With this pick
And flat comb,
—
‘cause yo hair is too thick,
I’m at the enda mah wick,
And, mah grays are doin’
Anything -
But, fadin’.

[Lyric re-write: The Times they are a Changin’, by Bob Dylan]
Come gather ‘round, voters
Wherever’s your Poll?
And admit rising waters
Around you now flow
And accept it is sooner
Than science had shown
It’s ah crime the earth we’re not savin’
Get propeller power whirlin’
Charge yer lights with the sun
For the Climate is ah Changin’
Come haters and cynics
Who Twitter and spin
Better open yer eyes
For the Glaciers are thin
Our POTUS hates science
Wants it all about him
No compassion for another
He’s a gamblin’ we’re losers
And payin’ his bills
While the Climate is ah Changin’
Come Senator McConnell
Stop blockin’ the Bills
Don’t stand in our way
As the ice melts and spills
Our earth is ah hurtin’
While you don’t heed calls
The storm outside is ah ragin’
And soon for our children
No future at all
For the Climate is a Changin’
Come sisters and brothers
We must make a stand
And all realize
What is now in our hands
For if we do nothin’
They’ll ravish the land
Unlivable for the ages
Inaction and tarry
Is all they have planned
While the Climate is ah Changin’
The time has now come
The dye, it is cast
If we slow down
It’ll soon come to pass
Our chances are fadin’
The present, our last
Leavin’ life no safe haven
So what we don’t need
Is coal, oil, or gas
Cuz the Climate is a Changin’

Moon in the sky
The stars are dyin
All I hear is you
And you just cryin
••
Sad sad night
The lights are fadin
Your life
Never had a chance nohow
••
Singin a song
We gettin it wrong but it don't matter none
We ain't afraid
It ain't up to us
No
It ain't
••
Moon in the sky
Faces in the dark
The light is but a memory
Like a picture a you still in my heart

Dreams gone past
Laughter fadin
Sof light glowing
Up in the sky
Angels singing
Flowers drifting
Sweetly sending
Peace around
Grass is bursting
Emerald green
Sunset making
a golden softness
Butterflies landing
Amongst the trees
Wings of love
Cascading falls
Memories gone.

Am I chasing for something
In vain?
Am I chasin'
For something
That is not there
In the first place
Maybe a mirage?
Am I down
Am I in a dream?
Fadin' away from
Reality
Versus fiction?
Am I chasin' for something
that ain't there
A 2D picture
Would anybody care if I get lost?
In my dream
Chasin' something in vain
In vain
A Dream maybe?

My shadow's brighter than I am.
I think I'm fadin'.
But the Moonlight,
She keeps me down
She warms my heart
Embraces my soul,
Her light.
She pierces through me.
I want to feel her
Want to hold her,
In my hands.
But,
So far she is from me.
I am doomed for whole my life,
Here, somewhere in universe, on this rock.
Drinking rain and eating dirt.
Eternally standing.
I saw when she was born,
From the stone she was divided.
I don't want to think about it.
The moment,
The one in which she will be vanishing.
What will I do here alone,
In this nothingness?
For that moment,
Now I shed the tear
'Cause I'll watch her disappear.
The Moonlight bright,
Only her I've seen the light.

Yo im off the dome
Like JFK snipped by the CIA
Serenade the streets with AKs
Day by day i prey the prey
Im the predator
I keep my styles mixed up
Like a news editor
So **** a critic and a creditor
The source can **** my ****
Til the nuts shown
From the microphone
I hold ya know the storys being told
The true about me replica of the old hip hop
This ******** got to stop
Nigguhs rhymin' no meanin'
Everyday im.schemin' load the triple beams and
Aim it at the radio station this is **** nation
No hesitation
Give up the endz and the ******* with the flawless skin
And big ***** smoke L's til the filter ashes
Im rougher than babies rashes
I leave a **** bigger than car crash
The means my rhymes is collision
Ya need a new vision im your envision
Ya wish you could be next to me
Or that BiG
Rap phenom droppin bars like a bombs
Come get it if you want some??
Only to my carnage the merciless
Holocaust
Got my enemies prayin' more than a Holy Mosque
Your fadin' and hatin' only creatin'
A bigger ground for my stage persona
Tote Marijuana got a stash of cash in Tijuana
MEXICO and if you come close to the cheese
Im.gonna
Burn you nigguhs hotter than a sauna
The black iguana
Camouflage with my fatigue up my stakes
Now im the major leagues
Hittin' this fools harder than Joe Louis
Who could do this??
Hits better than we
Bow ya heads and send a prayer for thee
Pray that i dont catch you slippin'
Put a mute to a lippin'
Ill empty more LA clips than Blake Griffin'

From a distance, fade and keep fadin
the palm of our shaky hands touched the cold mirror
There is no stopping the halt of the creeping disassociation
Identity, stripped away like the distant memories of the future
who's there , why you are always there , Do we know each other?
Love me, I did well
Hold me, in your light
take me, to your future
There's no way,
I know no such person,
There's no way, that you are me.
I rather die than being seen
And you know I wanna be seen
The reason to quietly sobbing in the stalls
The exact reason to be that perfect, wholesome guy

the sun's goin down
as my journey begins
surfin the desert wave of the milky way
on a leather saddle
the wind whistlin harmonies to my lullabies
the stars guidin me to nowhere
the horse's tail swishin
my home village fadin
further into the distance like a tumbleweed blowin
i'm leavin for the desert
you'll find me findin myself
straw in my lips as i hum
my breakup blues
- p. winter

But can we make love
With something other than a razor blade ?
We talk the Great Revolution of Soul
But who actually meditates ?

We talk & talk
But we got
Nothin to say
IT DON'T MATTER NONE

And if you say
I DON' T KNOW WHAT IT IS
we know that you are so full of ****
