"gentlemen" poems
54 If I should die, And you should live— And time should gurgle on— And morn should beam— And noon should burn— As it has usual done— If Birds should build as early And Bees as bustling go— One might depart at option From enterprise below! ’Tis sweet to know that stocks will stand When we with Daisies lie— That Commerce will continue— And Trades as briskly fly— It makes the parting tranquil And keeps the soul serene— That gentlemen so sprightly Conduct the pleasing scene!

If I should die
Anna, the young lions won't want you forever. Eventually you are going to get tired of keeping it tight, of batting your eyes, of applying the gloss just right. Anna, what will you do when the invitation beds come to an end? Eventually the lions will settle, while you gather cobweb and callus, while you smoke cancer and wallow in cellulite. Anna, find a boy who makes you feel like the sun. Ultimately, he's the only one who can save your soul from all the crimes you've done.

when the gentlemen stop calling
They grace our tables with their elegance and their beauty, Support us in our careers as though it was their duty, They listen to our problems day after day, The same old problems, They´ve been listening to since May, Chefs, accountants, nannies and councillors are just a few of their talents. And when things are hectic they mostly keep their balance. And what do they get when they've worked a long hard day. I'll tell you something gents they don't ask for any pay. So how can we show gratitude for what is clearly so demanding. Its quite simple Gentlemen, please be upstanding, The Ladies

How To **** Yourself Without Dying: In 23 Simple Steps
Gentlemen of Courage and Ladies of Excellence, Toast to stolen prayers with rarer player’s hands; Soft in defiant laughter, when drinking their wine from the bowels of brines Sing along the Ballads of Heritage with Melodies of Exception; Boast, not a breathe, though sullen heirs ghost to fairer wearer’s air(s) of land— A settlement of Rapture and Resurrection, arid, amid dirt and sand and King and thy Kingdom sprout flowering tomb, and rosebud temple reach to the sky during the showers of spring Devours the crescent Moon in big pink petals of bloom; A garden so fertile it could look pretty in wartime— with Gardeners of Courage and Laborers of Excellence; (Lapse, not into digressions of Being and Essence but hands in the soil and planting the actions of kingdom come,        patient building of Spring Reign sure as the flame, the architect of rising Sun is (Daughters and Sons of kingdom came,       the soldier in a land been conquered and named; abandoned for the greenness of hope. )May it never come, Be All The Same; ( be gentle, though whispering wind) Seeds of Nextyear and the spores of Awhile, carried by the Wasps and the Clouds To the Gentlemen of Excellence and Ladies of Courage, illuminated, eyes from the flora of stars faraway forest floor of foreign       fears,       as the hungry Owls of Time prepare a final feast—       Consume the years between Here and Now;       Watching from blank perch, among       the Trees of Afterall; a place beyond expectance.       Sing the branches of experience, to wake       in Siren’s cipher; inelegant forms       of waking, ugly sleep on rocks of seabed; once was aboard a marooned skyline— Those Who Are Will Be again, again a serf in a wave of Time’s refraction.

I have done it again. One year in every ten I manage it---- A sort of walking miracle, my skin Bright as a **** lampshade, My right foot A paperweight, My face a featureless, fine Jew linen. Peel off the napkin 0 my enemy. Do I terrify?---- The nose, the eye pits, the full set of teeth? The sour breath Will vanish in a day. Soon, soon the flesh The grave cave ate will be At home on me And I a smiling woman. I am only thirty. And like the cat I have nine times to die. This is Number Three. What a trash To annihilate each decade. What a million filaments. The peanut-crunching crowd Shoves in to see Them unwrap me hand and foot The big strip tease. Gentlemen, ladies These are my hands My knees. I may be skin and bone, Nevertheless, I am the same, identical woman. The first time it happened I was ten. It was an accident. The second time I meant To last it out and not come back at all. I rocked shut As a seashell. They had to call and call And pick the worms off me like sticky pearls. Dying Is an art, like everything else, I do it exceptionally well. I do it so it feels like hell. I do it so it feels real. I guess you could say I've a call. It's easy enough to do it in a cell. It's easy enough to do it and stay put. It's the theatrical Comeback in broad day To the same place, the same face, the same brute Amused shout: 'A miracle!' That knocks me out. There is a charge For the eyeing of my scars, there is a charge For the hearing of my heart---- It really goes. And there is a charge, a very large charge For a word or a touch Or a bit of blood Or a piece of my hair or my clothes. So, so, Herr Doktor. So, Herr Enemy. I am your opus, I am your valuable, The pure gold baby That melts to a shriek. I turn and burn. Do not think I underestimate your great concern. Ash, ash --- You poke and stir. Flesh, bone, there is nothing there---- A cake of soap, A wedding ring, A gold filling. Herr God, Herr Lucifer Beware Beware. Out of the ash I rise with my red hair And I eat men like air.

I am not required to love you. Let's get that straight. Neither man nor woman Is obligated to profess And show their undying love for you, Just as the sun doesn't revolve around the world, The world doesn't revolve around you. A series of acts showing your "kindness" Is not a contract for a relationship. The very fact that you have to shout How you are a "nice guy" Shows how you aren't; Kindness doesn't need reassurance. To be frank, This whole delusion Is getting a bit out of hand (see: the ****** Killer", a guy so sexually frustated He killed people for not giving him the right to get laid). Maybe, hear me out here guys, it's not because girls only look for "bad guys". Maybe we look for soulmates, Not Good Samaritans with hidden agendas. This may come off as a shock for some of you, But all-around goodness isn't equal to treating girls nicely Only because you might have a chance. So if your mating dance Consists of acting like you're an angel And simultaneously complaining About the blindness And insolence of women, It's high time you should stop. Put down the fedora while you're at it. It's become a symbol for gentlemen for you, But now it's a warning sign for us: "Beware the self-entitling guy!" Honestly, we cringe every single time. And darling, Nice guys always finish last because they whine Instead of running.

Ladies And Gentlemen This Little Girl
During one of my recent internet travels, I came across a picture of a “minor”, posing with tinted lips and exposed ******* What got my eyes pinned were the thousand number of likes by virtually hooting “boys” and comments by other group of “gentlemen” telling her how to dress. HUMILITY: I have been asked to repeat the word too many times to recall what it means: the man on the subway cat-called and accused me of showing too much skin but instead of fighting back, I smiled because girls ought to be nice. I have been taught to survive by using my body as a swiss army knife, and I convince myself that there is protection in being polite. H-U-M-I-I am forgetting the rest. The smoke curled up from between his fingers and he blew out toxic, blurring my vision. I gasped and wheezed but I held my sneeze, I cannot slap him across his face. HUMILITY. So, I just pretended to cough, hoping he’ll feel ashamed. I have been trained to flutter my eyelash, clench my jaw at a whiplash and business school boys, who manifest success by refusing to take “NO” for an answer. And for every time his prying eyes scan down by body, as if rating my inexperienced assets on a scale of one to five, and every time his touch trails a chill down my spine, I wonder: Male kindness is so alien to us; we confuse it with seduction every time. HUMILITY: the quality of having a low view of one’s importance but, I fail to understand when did it become synonymous to diffidence; there is a subtle difference between papercuts and shattered integrity, holding hands and chaining souls, building houses and creating homes, humiliation rotting down to bones and humility. HUMILITY, have you spelled it too many times to know what it looks like?

Rap verses freestyle
As Stong as the An African Elephant Yet were are supple and elegant. We are persuasive talkers so our words are very Eloquent. Crafted From man's rib and An earthly element is How God made the first Wombman in the old testiment. During the worlds development We somehow begun to be irrelevant Forgetting that we were designed as a help mate who is heaven sent. We shed Bloods for days sometimes a months without dying. Raising our children to Be Ladies and gentlemen whom are edifying. In our wombs a human life we are able carry. We are informational like a human dictionary. We store resoureful pieces of data like a library. Created with brown sugar, warm honey, cocoa and Gold. Out spirits are Radiently Bold. Our bodies are temples that can't be bought or sold. We have a Story that must be hear and told. We are the beautiful flowers in the month of May That Springs up and blooms in middle of noons day. We flourish just as the fluorescent blue jay, Whose mood is Joyful and gay. Our Skin absorbs the sun's Incandescent. Ray. Some may say, Our hair is ***** but Actually, Our hair just happens to defy gravity So we wear it upon our head proudly like a Crown because Living in socitey's prospective of what you should look like will weigh you down. You will stay stuck on being lost when you already have been found. Be about your fathers business and know you are Heaven bound. We are run life's race with meaning and purpose in our pace Even our walk is embedded with grace Nature's beauty smiles upon our face As We Wear God's love like a Pure Gold necklace that's trimmed with lace. The Strength we've gain Turned us into warriors from living the through the most Excruciating pain Thats the Reason we humbly pray as we sing and dance in the middle of the storm's rain. Our humility will continue to remain. We are women of Virtue I wrote this to encourage you Never let no one break, hurt or discourage you know who you belong to. And who deserves a Woman of your statue. For Being black Is Exhilarating And being a woman is Breathtaking but Being a Black Woman is an Honorary Identity that is Legendary.

I feel like a friend-- a true friend, is more than a profile on a website. And peace is more than a handshake agreement brought by the outcome of a gruesome fight. I know that self worth is more than someone's opinion, and in no other dominion but mine own to foster and care for.   And I can see that happiness is more than having money, sure, cause most of us laugh everyday here, and come on, we're dirt poor. And I pray the human soul is more than Casper's counterpart, somewhere between the heart and the pancreas. And God, faith is so much more than cryin' and dyin' over spilt milk between religions. And in case you were confused, "I love you", is more than pet names, bed games, and *** Music is more than pimps, hoes, and MTV Shows, and T-Pain singin through a computer. Believe that life is more than grades and degrees, or drugs and disease, or the 'ABCs' of success that some old man wrote a thousand years ago. This poem has to be more than words strewn together to voice my discontent at the status-quo.. Hell, the word "more" itself is more than a one-syllable statment that what we lack in the present is just a larger quantity of the **** "we already have", and no! The power of your silent agreement is more than that of my voice alone, so... What is "more"? In many ways, "more" is the friend you never had. More peace in the world would end all the mindless bloodshed. More respect and selfworth would bring beauty back to youth, especially to the women in the world, that sell their unique souls to look like the cover of Cosmo. More faith, that grants serenity in the times of hardship, will be the soothing hand of an Angel on our shoulders as we say, "I love you" to our enemies, martyrs for a better world. More positive music will inspire us, to be the change we want to see in the world, today, instead of, "Waitin' on the World to Change "♫ ♪ ♫♪ So ladies and gentlemen, make a decision: if you want to be critics and vipers, war mongers and hope-snipers, ignore my intention, and live with more division. But, if any of you are artists starving for meaning and inspiration, if you envision a world of more than... THIS... Then let a word change a feeling, change a thought, change a meaning, change your mind... And get more out of life.

As I watch you sleep, you wonder through vivid dreams, This must be the reason for your kicking and muted screams. As you slept, I held you so tightly, even though your naked body excites, Which is a blessing on cold winter nights. But as morning creeps in and the light starts to begin, I create with a tiny lick, the most arousing sensation. And as her vestigial legs slide so easily, I being the lovers embrace, Bathing in her ocean of taste, great emotion fills her face. "Oh, I am sorry sweetie, did I wake".... "oh no my dear, I did not want an oversight, For a wish or a dream in the night, a touch so softly, there is no fight. I figured I would stir you in the seeking of a snack, But don't you worry a little bit, just relax and lay right back For there is no greater act, then to lick our passionate parts so sweetly, In between your thighs, while I drive my tongue so deeply. But what I do with my tongue at midnight, when there is no one around to hear the yells, I would go into more detail, but a gentlemen never tells!

The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter, It isn’t just one of your holiday games; You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES. First of all, there’s the name that the family use daily, Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James, Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey— All of them sensible everyday names. There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter, Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames: Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter— But all of them sensible everyday names. But I tell you, a cat needs a name that’s particular, A name that’s peculiar, and more dignified, Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular, Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride? Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum, Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat, Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum- Names that never belong to more than one cat. But above and beyond there’s still one name left over, And that is the name that you never will guess; The name that no human research can discover— But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess. When you notice a cat in profound meditation, The reason, I tell you, is always the same: His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name: His ineffable effable Effanineffable Deep and inscrutable singular Name.

I love you for your laughter your soft hair the morning routines I tried to adopt, that you have down to a science the way you gaze into the abyss with tender expressions the careful footsteps the blushing falseness the pretty lace and ribbons the black eyeliner and studded collars BUT beards and hunting and fishing flannels and strength and handsome fellers truck stops and smoking whiskey and bonfires g i joe and spiderman but most of all batman and joker the complications of comics gaming on friday nights with bottles of bud I love men and boys and women and girls and ladies and gentlemen

To other women
A gentleman is a guy who'll treat a girl right But s thugg only wants to hit it for one night A gentleman is romantic and sweet A thugg is only nice to get in the sheets The gentleman will open his lady door And address her by her name of dear A thugg will leave her and even more But they say they bring a lady to cheer A gentleman is faithful Thugs are ungreatful Calling girls ******* and hoes can be hateful Thuggs are winning Gentlemen are losing The **** keeps lots of girls choosing A gentleman dresses professional and neat While a thugg sags and eorks the streets You choose which one is best Which one will win and put other to rest A gentleman classifies me But which one would yoh rather be

Gentleman Vs Thugg
Thinking, Pondering, Wondering What’s wrong with me, am I too nice? Are my friend’s right? For I heard this phrase for so long Junior year to be exact. Are you gay, you **** bro are you straight? (Is what I heard) Are you crazy, **** them hoes (Is what they said) Go out and get that bread It’s all coming back to me. Too nice Is what I’m characterized as Never the one to go out and get it. What you going to with it? You gonna to hit that, tap that Because if you don’t I surely will pull that cap back In to reality Snap, it’s all coming back to me. See I’ve had my time of deception and deceit For now I’m grown and just want to take a seat Relax and think Blind to see that special someone for me. But, in this world there’s no room for that All society wants you to do is have babies, Be poor, struggling Oh, that’s a class act. But for me, I don’t belong Others strung along like a puppeteer singing their favorite song Bounce that *** Twerk that Is what our women are suppose to know But, who is the one to show All the beauty and potential they possess Progress into women of success. Too bad none of them will ever see that. Most of them will be on their backs, thrusting While the eyes of the Lord watching, as his child Is no longer is his little girl. Too Nice Ponder at the fact that nice guys finish last Where are the gentlemen, the ones that take women Out on dates, but their afraid to actual settle down Thinking I’ll look like a clown when my homies find out. Sincerity and acknowledgment are things of the past. Now days, saying ***** and *** is what’s going to get you past In life, I learned that you can’t make everyone happy But, if I can make most then that makes me happy. Gratitude and simple thank you is all I ask A little kerseys and small “how do” will do for I don’t ask for much Friendship, Loyalty, and Respect F.L.R. But, how can that get you so far, because in this world no one cares about Your feelings. Phssst, what were you thinking? I was thinking that for once, just once nice guys wouldn’t finish last. Be glad while you have me for who know how long I’m a stay TOO NICE

Too Nice
Thinking, Pondering, Wondering What’s wrong with me, am I too nice? Are my friend’s right? For I heard this phrase for so long Junior year to be exact. Are you gay, you **** bro are you straight? (Is what I heard) Are you crazy, **** them hoes (Is what they said) Go out and get that bread It’s all coming back to me. Too nice Is what I’m characterized as Never the one to go out and get it. What you going to with it? You gonna to hit that, tap that Because if you don’t I surely will pull that cap back In to reality Snap, it’s all coming back to me. See I’ve had my time of deception and deceit For now I’m grown and just want to take a seat Relax and think Blind to see that special someone for me. But, in this world there’s no room for that All society wants you to do is have babies, Be poor, struggling Oh, that’s a class act. But for me, I don’t belong Others strung along like a puppeteer singing their favorite song Bounce that *** Twerk that Is what our women are suppose to know But, who is the one to show All the beauty and potential they possess Progress into women of success. Too bad none of them will ever see that. Most of them will be on their backs, thrusting While the eyes of the Lord watching, as his child Is no longer is his little girl. Too Nice Ponder at the fact that nice guys finish last Where are the gentlemen, the ones that take women Out on dates, but their afraid to actual settle down Thinking I’ll look like a clown when my homies find out. Sincerity and acknowledgment are things of the past. Now days, saying ***** and *** is what’s going to get you past In life, I learned that you can’t make everyone happy But, if I can make most then that makes me happy. Gratitude and simple thank you is all I ask A little kerseys and small “how do” will do for I don’t ask for much Friendship, Loyalty, and Respect F.L.R. But, how can that get you so far, because in this world no one cares about Your feelings. Phssst, what were you thinking? I was thinking that for once, just once nice guys wouldn’t finish last.

I should have been a boxer....the way I stick and move when I write. The only person I know that can make the sun shine at night. I should have been a boxer....the way i fight with words to paint a picture. I'm using the jab to set you up for the knockout blow. I'm looking for your tendencies and when i spot it......down you will go. I should have been a boxer....float like a butterfly sting like a bee. A sign of honor to a fellow poet.....and inspiration to me.....Muhammad Ali. I should be a boxer the way i study my craft and observe the legends of the game. It's all all about the passion.....I could care less about fame. I should have been a boxer.....you can't be good unless you train. I have my book ....my pen .....ideas in my brain. I have so many thoughts I may need another brain. I'm on the speed bag so my brain is quick with the flow....switching styles like a southpaw.....which way is it coming? I guess you will never know. I should have been a boxer....because i really like to fight. Instead of gloves I utilize my pen to pulverize the paper and annihilate those foes and lost loves....father's who left their children at start. They couldn't finish the fight .....was he a coward or a scarecrow.....born without a heart. I should've been a boxer.....because my defense is always up. I hide my poems inside a book .....it's highly guarded so don't try to look. The thoughts inside are g14 classified....so I'm hiring security guards.....if you want to gain entrance.....you must present an identification card. I should've been a boxer....because I'm always fighting. My thoughts are knocked to the paper and bleeds black or red. I write about life .....because I know nothing about being dead. Although, I been knocked around .....and have had to take a standing eight.....I leaned on the ropes and learned to wait. Still working the jab......which are the words i write. I should've been a boxer.....one hitter quitter and then it's time to say "Goodnight!" Ladies and Gentlemen......we have a unanimous decision. The new poetic champion of the worldddddd!!! ......I should've been a boxer.....Yeah right.

So, dope young fellow With your pretty boy swag. With your SnapBack on. Pants so **** low. Every girl just waiting in line just to give you a blow. You're royalty around here, but this is still high school. Taking every girls cherries and jewels. You think that you're raising the bar but I've seen this before: Call it VCR. And then there's me: Who don't get no ladies. Because I'm the type of person who actually treats females as actually human beings. Not toys. I'll put them before myself. I care about their joy. You know what's dead: chivalry. And it can never be reborn. Not like Call of Duty: zombies. Boom, headshot. But there's another ten coming your way. Then it gets to the point when you're just blown away. But I'll be your player 2. Girl, I'd give up all my perks just for you. So you guys out there with the pretty boy swag. Who just zip it all up cuz they think they got it in the bag. I'm going to fight. I'm going to step up for the voices not heard. Cuz you've drowned them in depression, you've choke them with cruelty, and you've slapped them with sadness. Unable to act. Like a flightless bird. I'll let them out of their cages so they can fly once again. So you can't weight them down: Call you Anchormen. Ooo, **** em' So, pretty boy, nothing close to fantastic. I just wanna say: That I know I'm swagtastic. S- saving W- women A- against G- guys T- that A- abuse S- sensitive T- tender I- innocent C- companions. Shorten that: swag. S- she W- wants A- a G- gentlemen. So now boy, Lets just see which one of us got that "Pretty Boy Swag"

Art will come and go And grow and be bold or ugly It will transform lives, sculpt beauty It will capture phenomenal imagination Lead to new places or people Change an entire perspective Open a closed mind, Expand an eager mind Art is in us all So ladies, if the man you seek Is unapologetic in his art Be open to all his personalities Help cultivate the many characters That he may have shown you Don't hold them under water And fellas, be men, be gentlemen If your woman you hold true Has bigger wings than your **** Don't be weary, become nurturing A woman's fire should burn and burn Women who are creating art is better Than the story of creation itself We owe it to each other to let art live

Lovers Hold True
So you really want to know Why chivalry died? Well the truth hurts dear reader But to explain I deal shall try Chivalry died because of a lack of appreciation from both sides Of the spectrum it's like seeing a reflection of stupidity in thine eyes Ladies it died because we failed to train up gentlemen, and the ones that very rarely are usually end up being simply friends, Fellas we killed it to by not training up our sons More often now the golden rule is look out for number one So chivalry died a slow painful death, From neglect from both sides, Will it ever return again I don't know when really... But I hope we try

The Tale Of Chivalry's Death
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard Afterlife Airlines. I’m your pilot, Captain Meta Physics. Please fasten your sleep belts as we are about to leave the body. Please direct your attention to your stewardess while she demonstrates safety procedures. In the event of a drastic reduction in karma, a mask will fall down from above you. Place it on and breathe deeply of pure love. Should those passengers who are clinically dead find themselves returned by a surgeon’s skill, the life raft under your seat will inflate with a new sense of purpose. After take off the stewardesses will serve milk and honey. For your entertainment, the movie is anything with Shirley Maclaine in it or there are seven channels of chi on the chakra-phones being dispensed soon. For those contemplating joining the Tantric Mile High club, please be considerate of your fellow passengers. We’re making good time because the breath of God is always behind us. Below us to the right is the Ocean of Ego and to our left some passengers may glimpse the chain of islands: Faith, Hope and Charity. We’ve been advised that it’s a little busy on The Other Side so we’ve been placed in a holding pattern on the astral plane. Passengers are reminded to retrieve all emotional baggage for security reasons and please help Customs by declaring all religious preferences. Ladies and gentlemen, we’re cleared for landing now. On behalf of the crew, I hope you enjoyed your transdimensional flight with Afterlife Airlines and we hope to see you aboard again soon. Please fasten your sleep belts, we’re coming in for reincarnation.
