"flagrant" poems
If you weren't dark skin you'd blush, You and your pleasantly "spring" demeanor, blooming smiles in secret inside your hazmat suit, from any type of feelings, you are already infected, -- and contagious, yet refuse to admit the goosebumps on your neck, without the fortunate luxury of showing your emotion society has deemed you timeless, an eloquent flagrant aroma, the definition of fine wine with a zest -- a spiciness of an impatient "summer", you are warm, and the stem of your smiles comes with thorns of poison, weapons of mass destruction, so you're cloaked, tucked away from societal norms, and expectations --  who are we to judge, you are correct, your skin, is the right tone, to grab the attention for all the unwelcome, literal and figuratively baring a cluster of ideas, wants, desires -- requested by only the elite, pasteurized and preserved until then.

(daughter of Egyptian Goddess Sekhmet) the un-Suppression of the Black Woman pt.1
The beauty of comatose can only be seen through the eyes of a wizard in a blizzard strutting in garlic slippers, or Christ with knees bent at the tabernacle peeling bananas and kicking prayers farther than eternity with each gapping second, or like Basquiat slumped back to the wall, with ounces of speedball dancing through his veins, eating 80’s free-based fried chicken *******   as his eyelids paints beautiful nightmares of lemon flowers and Bacchus bacon over a glycopyrrolate desert of flagrant cuckold buffoonery. Or like leprechauns burning chocolate ******* candles on the mantle of Zion, sipping oatmeal sprinkled with Staten Island malt liquor bacon. or like Tupac reading the thoughts of Mother Shipton through the daze of California cannabis and hearing the ominous voice of Plutarch sing death assignments from heaven to Assassins on horsebacks goggling ***** water to wet the dry bones of their throats as they prepare to fulfill the gospel of self-fulfilling prophecies of being fell by ***** bullets. Or like sophisticated wallets of spice and kitchen characters in a bald head cooking chemical kisses and 18 February nights under Moloch’s skin, where constitutions are written in charcoal diaries with Egyptian ciphers and razors. “I had rain sowed into the pockets of my sneakers and composed 1310 eulogies at the basement of king David’s tower,” said the Kraftwerkian caricature, as he dangles cigarettes in remembrance of Klaus Nomi and philosophizes on the proliferation of poetic vandalism at urinals where modernism failed under the phosphorescence of coloration at the avenue of no trees where Picasso's "Guernica" **** Lies All.

Fading stains record the tender scheme of flagrant deliberation Transparent in their defense of the illusion Depicting careful consideration of honesty and reserve While shattering the picture of your delusions A saturation of recollection, distinctive in its eloquence Briefly coercing the eyes to conceive The continuation of a scheme hid in a shroud of confusion Which refuses to change or ever leave What would ever stain, yet without any imperfection Expressing clear in all of its defense Completely raw and uninhibited in the purest honesty Yet leave your values standing on the fence A love beyond comprehension is your tender scheme The stains are your records of transparency A continuation one cannot deny, when looking in your eyes No illusions, just the pureness of honesty

i. the Hibiscus is the paradisiacal armistice of quagmire and wind: leave it there anchored to Earth. ii when it rains, it bows to no one; when it genuflects to no bird,   it trills on the red of the moseying hour— nobody sees the Hibiscus.   only the children of the vandal. iii. last summer we had makeshift bubble machines and in the high-rise   of the twilight's cradle, we ran viciously against the humdrum town   blowing bushels of laughter at the dreary populace — the brooms   to a sweeping rustle, unsettled dust mounting the ether.          we hurtled across the infantile roads like they owed us something finitely attributed      to our locomotives. iv.   the Semana Santa had gone by and the season, no matter how promisingly redolent with emollient brush    of wind and laboring silence, held no reprise — the Hibiscus,    it is not alone in the quiet verdigris. v.   somewhere amid the hubbub of city, there is a pendulum of line biting    the shore of waiting repeatedly. only steel scaffolds erected and no    flagrant scent aroused. peregrinating in the haloed hour, the nascent furl of     belch from vociferous iron-clad beasts in all of EDSA    and when i look at people around me they look like gumamelas, finally,     yet i am         not coming home.

Oakes-photo, hypocrisy and flagrant mirky plateau. Brimming celestial warrants overcrowding public housing systems. North-South lights, sell costly iPhone Apps; and then there are Social Societies of non-verbal delight. Password protected non-profitable and over-costly educations of no reward or biblical synonyms. Catastrophizing hash-tag dot.com. Weary party going poster children with glowing anemone guts, fruity looped cantlings, ravenous scattered supper clubbed coughing up ******* on their strange and central affairs unit. Overcome the candisation and sugary affairs of any of the ***** and pops that erstwhile matter less and less. We are speaking of nomenclatures that don't arise. Promises and by which confession aloof romanticizes every Tom dicking Mary that carries the theory of sustainable energy, prussian blue, and irregular browsing.

Irregular Browsing: A Temperamental Prussian Blue
Travelling royalty, a princess with no home; Inspiring love and loyalty, everywhere she goes. A radiant smile, captivating eyes, Flagrant beauty, the kind that never dies. A lover of life, an enchanting presence, An overflowing fountain, wonderful decadence. The princess met the peasant – A man from a land where very little is pleasant. Clawed a path out of the dirt, Flawed, yet always hungry for answers, An explanation as to why we’re all scarred and hurt. Temptation incarnate, freedom given life – Impartial, a storm about to deliver strife. It was a spark worthy of Zeus’ thunderbolts; Worlds apart, yet tolerant of each other’s faults. Equals in their intellect, conjoined at their hearts; Immediate and mutual respect, Together, they could make the seas part. The peasant got blessed by the divine, The princess was impressed by the sublime. Her, with her presence, Him, with his essence – Two people who, despite their charms, don’t fit anywhere else. They found shelter in each other’s arms, A respite from their personal hells. Yet, the princess needed to journey once more, An ending to a story that leaves the heart sore. The peasant lay there, looking at his fields, Reminiscing, bitterly sipping comfort in a glass. He could do naught but shed tears, and think: ‘I’d give up every harvest, all my work and what it yields, To have you by my side; you gave me peace and strength, You made me feel like I can bend swords and crack shields.’ The princess could only stare, Right at where his hand once held hers; She could only think of the dare, The night where they both let down their hair, And think: ‘I’d give up the road, all my walks and journeys, To have you by my side; you gave me sweetness and kindness, You made me feel loved, breathless and weak in the knees.’

*November 29th, 2014 Dear Chris:*    I miss you dear, I'd like to say.* Though it's been six months, thoughts of you are here to stay. My words turn to putty and I wish to form them like clay because there's so much to you I wish to convey. I've been traveling and unraveling the belt loops of life, and striding through gliding on ice skates from strife. I don't know if still I can sing the same tune. Our dreams from the Bay have been vexing me; perplexing me since June. The ring you gave me has my fingers swollen like my head, just like a balloon! And I don't know if it makes me sullen to confess when you asked for my hand, even hypothetically, I was to be your wife complete with white dress. Somewhere along the line that dream has changed. Though I feel that this letter was written selfishly. I really must say.. All I know is that I miss you Chris, I have missed you since May. -Adeline December 1st, 2014 Adeline:     I was wanton and flagrant when your letter was received. I was bounding and bursting; hardly contained in my seat. Your familiar fragrance beseeching my heart's conceit, and in your confidence said that you're missing me. Until the usual silence declares again it's already half past three. Time to wash away delusions that are causing my hope to reek. Still.. Certainly there will be another chance to hear from you next week.

I feel Creation’s seed.... cosmic genesis The first wave of flagrant eruption Ending in the the cosmos’s destruction. तिरोभाव There exists illusion Which gives rise to me The obliteration of ignorance. We live in times of ignore-ance Here I have little sway. Years from now....maybe. Until then, kali decides to dance with me. Primal संहार Destruction Bloodlust and Fire ******** and desire Quantum tantric tangle ***** the world’s funeral pyre Goodbye beauty, Goodbye love WE bring it upon ourselves, creating shells and building shelves to stack the wonton clothes of identity, the context of all hells. The layers are too many It collapses And if not, I'll ******* burn the scaffold. I know why I am here now.   To destroy tirobhava, all this pain is an illusion I hereby release this sickness from the world in prophetic burning grace of emancipation अनुग्रह is foretold To dance the sacred tandava say goodbye once more and end it all.

Burn the Scaffold
∙∙∙◦◦•◎•◦◦∙∙∙ Seems to be a strange day a cold in the breeze in the months of May screeching’s of the door a mist at the windows broken pane The room was lonely as the leaves, out whirling a thump at the ceiling top, rolling, shackling like those ogling cats for a savoring mouse From an ominous weather to the whispering waters a crack brought my most —attention uncanny things lurking came falling within *I saw streamers faking shimmers I saw glitters but aren't gold I saw diamonds yet it wasn't snow* A strong wind gushing hoist the storm came toiling, warping heaven and earth were felonious, winced and everything was settled Crystal drops touching the tender heart abrupt shattered glass striking a sorry won't be sought memories engrave nothing flagrant it is to mend Crystal drops falling true friends come for once, an astral to a feeling stalwart is to be keeping till when, twas its end and all of this begins again

Dream for me a Savannah, a sestina in reds at Pandora’s threshold, clothed in bludgeons of light and these tears are nothing but the nightingale’s burden, the words laden and livid as storm across the mauve wasteland unfolds, the sky in its deceit, promises rain, delivers nothing, in this room the light will ruin me, the squall of glass slippers overhead, on my knees, now the abstraction of the body, opaque I write in the limber whisper of fingertips, deep villanelles about love, restless love on the skin of your back, histories annotated by gestures of supplication, I drag fingernails across a fairytale and out falls a wide-eyed harem, April-blue veils trail their blood, narrowing the flagrant staccato echo in my sternum, A palm reader warns of conduits and spells, the darkness that puddles like lake water in my mind, moths of Summer a fragrant blue, restless blue notes like scorpions scurry beneath the blankets, strands of hair, stained sheets this vacancy glows through the shears I forget, how early, and still the night falls here, as how early it fails.....

Under the harvest moon, When the soft silver Drips shimmering Over the garden nights, Death, the gray mocker, Comes and whispers to you As a beautiful friend Who remembers. Under the summer roses When the flagrant crimson Lurks in the dusk Of the wild red leaves, Love, with little hands, Comes and touches you With a thousand memories, And asks you Beautiful, unanswerable questions.

Under The Harvest Moon
A new year is coming. We want all the money. Telling every woman bag back. We was lost. We fell off track. Let's hope we do not relapse. How could I worry about shot clocks, when I’ve been fighting just to make it to the playoffs. Getting fired and hired and laid off. You’re too focused on materialistic and pretend things. Trying to impress your friends and these women. I say all the time let’s move different. This won’t fix none of the things that I’ve mentioned. The relationship’s more like tradition. We fight and don’t talk but we're moving on. I still stay to myself, I’ve been traded on. I can’t rush into something I keep my patience. But you’re giving techs, fouls and a flagrant. We know I can hit me a buzzer to win the game. But why would I win just to feel pain. Trying to fix myself and my mind-frame. Stay true to myself in my own lane. We all know these other women all want me, but I act expensive yet they all adore me. To tie the knot won’t complete this story. Better tighten up, soon they can afford me. A couple of years of dating. We on thin ice like we’re skating. Don’t want to break, I’m just saying. Believe it or not, I’m not faking. Spent my whole life for this training. For shot clocks... So you can keep timing me or move along. I should be writing a better poem and songs. Self centered, you’re right and I’m always wrong. If anything, you’re the one taking too long. For shot clocks...

Shot Clock
There is a stirring in my chest, an elation I will not and cannot resist. There was once a moment where all of life stood still and my feet grew heavy barren heavy. Completely empty and ready to fall. There is a fire down below where the depths of sight can’t grow. It still feeds off my worried brain like a fetus planted hover-vein. The Venus Fly Trap sets its will spiked teeth ready, for the **** There is a place where spider webs and crawling things fit for nub ebb. All my flagrant floppy body deteriorates, demotivates, deregulates into a monster of the fiendish kind one where holographic glass goes blind. there is a feed that ***** in silt it still eats grits, their shiny pelt slimy, sloshes, ready, in frigid waters’ under-grin. Come follow me, dear Venus Trap into a submarine unsnap there is a blooming in my groin where dead things lay there shivering.

The gruff factory worker in the coarse leather boots and stained zubaz pants, yelped with displeasure when the tour guide of the Pullman company town revealed himself to be a PhD candidate in English during a Q-and-A. He questioned his credentials, dismissed him as overeducated, as soft-palmed, not of his caste, loudly declared that he was just another bureaucrat in waiting. "Institutions just exist to perpetuate themselves; they don't care about the people, just about keeping themselves alive," he theatrically confided to his friend, wanting to make sure he heard him, took note of his flagrant, raging skepticism. "They got to pay the lawyers." "All these institutions, they don't care about the workers." We strode on, amid the shadowed reaches of the empty train car factory the owners long ago abandoned to the rustling prairie, left to the wind and weeds and elements.

Deep down mind’s dark alley Lies a room, almost a crypt, With old memories stashed together hazy, misty, nondescript They were once fresh, vivid and flagrant, in times sunnier, merry and vibrant Until – A day a friend lost, A day a love broken A day innocence died Or a day trust stolen Each time filled this room With never-to-return memories And I stay away from the crypt To save myself the miseries

while waiting for the next girl in barnes & noble you can pull out an anatomy book and trace my bones like you wish you could have done before when it was still a viable option you inched her name into our conversations because it tasted like honey and devil's food cake on your tongue, looked away when i begged for answers left me writing you letters you never read and calling your name and wishing you good morning like the good girl i wanted to be even though i’d grown so weak behind your frames who did you see when you saw me? i want to know, i want to know if the guy before saw the same wide-eyed half-smiling half-crying picture of naivety i hate sensing patterns you knew you knew you knew but you did it anyway i knew i knew i knew the ending very well and i let it happen anyway as if i didn’t know any better i kept waiting for the broken traffic light to change. i shivered because my cardigan was too thin, high-low chiffon skirt pulling an unwanted marilyn and sending chills as i stepped onto the platform, phone in my hand at 63%, got texts from everybody but you body trembling on the walk home under the moonless sky. from now on trusting is going to feel like an olympic sport i've never been that athletically adept but i'll learn to pole vault the hell away next time when i see the signs loud and flagrant. third time's the charm right?

I am a Woman: My skin melted in moonlight into grim of the darkness of night, My hair sewed a meadow’s wildflowers, That's how a woman created in me' with blood divine, I am a woman' strong and at the same time soft, I am more like a pure wine of heaven, Through dew, the spark of life arrowed in, Giving birth to the wildwood adored skin, Delphinium vivid petals of spring late, With flagrant red roses; coloring my lips, My eyes carry the dreams of poetry, hopes of songs, and music of joy, An existence where I would live with pure me, Where I would dance with my **** truths, Play the drama of mystery, And audience and stage all are for me, Gathered to listen to me, To see me play all drama and dance in between of drama, I wrought the hair of my drenched in the psalm, Enchanting with dark godly melodies of mine, Braiding light with sorrows that, there, were. The breeze from the voided air, To embroider something, while reciting a prayer, And dizzily, I fabricated a soul for the mud, I inhaled, in awe and feel the life, I am the words in a poem, ready to rhyme, Yes, I am a woman, Enough to feel the entire universe within the word of Woman, My light reflected on my broken pieces, The rays shaped a tree of wicked caprices, Where my fantasies grow, However, I am my own little beautiful creation, And this reality is my hunger’s innovation. The reality we all share, Yet what deep is, makes my reality whole.

I am a Woman
Shall I bind you with cords of kinship, Instead of ties of flagrant love? Shall I catch you with family kindness, Instead of arrows from above? Am I a coward, or a faithful friend, who longs to keep you to the end, A fool a liar a lover unrequite dangerously chaining you to a rose I claim is white?
