"screamin" poems
Wish I could stop time or make it last longer Feeling on your vibes, emotions getting stronger The longer I ponder, the more I grow fonder I can't be around you There ain't no telling what i might do I don't know if you can take it It's too big, I might break it Little waist tight dress I can’t take it Your body shakin eyes looking at me like your for my taking our bodies groove In our grooves This kinda love is for the makin Dancing like we two halves of one making The moment sacred Reading your body language picturing you naked screamin my name like its your favorite I make your body do things So your soul can savor it Makin love until your ears ring to our vibe vibrating as we do our thing you cumin first until it’s past tense Got a few things on my mind Baby you are a hottie Out of everybody I want your body

Daydream
I walk inside, and you turn to gimme a look, Look who's talkin', homie, why YOU with your holy book? I walk with pride, with dignity, I feel like I deserve it, You think I'm full with violence, but where's that in my worship? Jesus brought the bible, Moses brought the Torah, and Muhammad brought the Qur'an, All those came from Allah. I know one day you'll realize, the truth was in the Qur'an, But by then... It'll be too late, Imagine what you'll have to face, Your punishment, in the grave, That even the, snakes will hate, But then they gotta tell you, you really deserve it, And you still  say, that I'm talking B.S, You make me shut up, just because of what I say, But who'll go with you, in your grave, You won't be able to blame your mistakes on those who just faked, Did I not tell you, you were getting tricked? Your ribcage will tighten, All the people 'ready left, Why would they care, of the punishment you gotta face? This is just an intro, My friend: listen to what I gotta say, Hell will come into view, Screamin'; You wouldn't have deserved this, All you had to do was just worship, All you had to do, was show Allah he deserves it, All the love and respect, you just had to show it, Not believe those who said, religion don't deserve it, You said you're not an Atheist, or an Agnostic, You said you're not a Christian, why didn't you become a Muslim? All the things I told you, were for this day to come, I wanted to make you, somehow convert to Islam. Tell me: Do you crave that punishment? Then why the hell you ain't gon' listen? All I want is best for you, you just gotta pay attention, You call for me, I can't do one thin', You ain't callin' him, who gave you everythin', Homie, this ain't a fantasy, You can't go back in time, You can't fix all those things, You just said you had no time, To worship him who created you, But when I say this to you, you think that I'm insane, Pray for your next life, not your worldly fame, They came with the message, but you never accept it, you said you don't need it, But now you'd say you believed it, All you had to do was just worship, but now you don't deserve it, Don't tell me I never told you: Just become a Muslim, All those years I tried, told you, you really deserve it, Now you're shredding tears only full of blood,, Told you they ain't Islam, they were just F'N up, Told you I was peace, now what you gon' do, I always only wished, for what was best for you,   Violence is not Islam, Terrorists are not Muslims, All they wanna do, is use up all their bullets, Keep calm, 'cause I'm a Muslim, not a terrorist, Hurry up, it ain't too late, look into Islam, 'Cause I know, you don't deserve ir, You're so lucky, you have the truth in front of you, You just outta accept it.

Did I Not Tell You...?

Why are librarians always mean? They act like they are the queen of the library scene They are in charge, that is true they make that clear when shushing you if only they actually knew people only go to the library to pass through they ***** and fuss all day and treat children like their prey they all turn into a cliche if only there was another way they are lonely crotchety old ladies who took their dreams and turned them into maybes some of them had wished to write or edit famous books into the night but alas here they are in old schools screamin' and yellin' all day about the rules I think that's probably why they take pleasure in making children cry Forever they'll sit at their desk growing in old age grotesque when you see a librarian make sure to scurry unless you want to feel her wrath and fury

Angels have wings Well, it depends on your perception When I first saw you I swear nothing could describe the connection You looked into my eyes, saw my soul, smiled at me, reached for my heart then offered me resurrection You asked me why my heart hasn’t been beating in so long You took a closer look ,saw that it was falling apart and you sung to me a gentle song And the sound of your voice filled me like air The touch of your fingers felt like care My broken heart now pumpin’ racin’ screamin’ cause the last time it lived it lived in fear, You tell me Angels have wings Well, you haven’t met mine Her kiss is like sunshine Her soul is like moonshine Strong, glowing , illuminating

She don't wanna speak to me. Me mind is hidden under a cloud of darkness. Dere's a feelin' of inner struggle. I must release reggae. spliiiiiff I rise out of me bed in terror. Me dreamt of a lonely island boy, lost at sea. Could you imagine, no friends, no food. No reggae release. spliiiiiff I'm trapped in a reggae box I can hear me boy screamin', but I can't find 'im. I call for 'im, "JACO! JACO, MY YOUT!" I must release de reggae. spliiiiiff The room is a maze, no exit. Could me premonitions be true? Could me boy truly be lost? No reggae release. spliiiiiff Me vision's too cloudy. All to be seen is rat-like faces, cringing. Their snouts snort and sneer to a reggae beat. I must release de reggae. spliiiiiff The floor falls from under me. A lizard's heavy gizzard appears below. Crooked, sharp teeth shining tru de dark. No reggae release. spliiiiiff Colours upon colours. An indigo man stabs, then rapes a magenta woman. Until the reds, and greens, and blues, explode from her stomach. I must release de reggae. spliiiiiff I catch me breath. I'm in me room. Safe and sound. Jeez, what a bad trip, still?

"I'm always getting high cuz' my confidence low... **And I'm always in a rush, ain't no time to **** slow** It's not something I don't know... **But I'm sure I'll make you *** do it three times in a row...** *And I'm sure you would've left but that ***** in control...* **That ***** in control..."** "I like the thrill... Nothings ever made me feel so real So don't leave me here alone, I don't wanna spend tonight alone..." I will **** you right, til' you tired to leave me I will do you right... Until your subconscious got you screamin' my name Crave me... Sensuality got you fallin' I am your void. Let the madness be the only thing you embrace as your soul craves me like a drug. There is beauty behind the madness. Look Can you see? Devour your senses I shall... So tell me you love me, Just for tonight For one night only

XO _ Abel Tesfaye: Lust drug
Wild child full of grace Savior of the human race Your cool face Natural child, terrible child Not your mother's or your father's child Your our child, screamin' wild An ancient lunatic reins In the trees of the night Ha, ha, ha, ha With hunger at her heels Freedom in her eyes She dances on her knees Pirate prince at her side Stirrin' into a hollow idols eyes Wild child full of grace Savior of the human race Your cool face Your cool face Your cool face Do you remember when we were in Africa?

Wild child ( lyrics by jim morrison)
Thomas, Tommy baby, you are both hot, and sweet. Tom Cat you’re red hot-- when I catch you in your Tom Cat Strut, sauntering across campus, strolling like it ain’t no thing, cuz it don’t meant a thing if it ain’t got that swing baby. So dig this, Tommy Gun, you groove with the best of ‘em when I spot you strollin’— Your head, teetering left and right like a seesaw, boppin’ baby, arms hangin’ loosely, swinging freely, wildly, go! go! legs scooping forward in boisterous trombone slides-- Groooooove Tommy baby! You’re Louis’s best blows-- ten feet from the mic and the Fives baby, you’re hot, red hot, any closer and I'll burn up! Go! But you’re cool, real cool, and oh so sweet. Super sweet-- in your beard like a pepper and salt shaker tossed across the table, I look to see those rosy lips part, and peep those pearly whites shinin' like the bell of Louis’s cornet brandished in the air, under those ballroom lights-- you’re screamin’ Tommy! Let me hear that laugh that shakes the room, punches like Blakey’s bass drum, thumps like Mingus-- T-Bird you’ve got that hard bop in your soul, you’re gonna bop to the top TB, into the third heaven where the angels fall in line to your swing, that incessant strut that keeps the devil at bay, Blow! Blow! Blow! And I see you now Tom Cat, up there in the clouds, digging your way across eternity, bopping and jiving, swinging and blowing, in your faded khaki pants and worn tennis shoes, loosely buttoned collared shirt, tight rectangular glasses that glistened the bell of your eyes even more-- I gotta stand twenty feet away Tommy baby! You glance down at me and wink, rearing your head back to let loose that Mingus and Blakey bottom-end laugh, guffaw guffaw guffaw!!! --so hearty and rich, the backbone of every nervous first-year classroom, and the sniggering seniors you continued to befuddle and dazzle with your mysterious ways and insatiable swing. So blow, Tommy Gun, blow! Go Tom Cat go! Dig T-Bird dig! Let loose Tommy boy! Swing for us, swing swing swing-- Hot and Sweet, Tommy baby, hot and sweet.

The day was black Her heart blacker She hesitated Her hands poised over the drawer She knew what it held She knew it would hurt But she opened it Pulling out the contents She dropped them in the bag. Moving on she packed her duffel Opening her phone she dialed his number “I’m ready, be down in five.” Dragging the bags to the window She dropped them out Tumbling after them. And running down the lane She jumped in the back seat Knuckle touch for her man Tire’s screamin away they ran Now she’s gone, she’s long gone She’s a runaway, a ***** lil runaway She’s a runaway, a ***** lil runaway And she ain’t neva comin’ back.

Parents Before Parenthood: part 5
The first time I died, it wasn’t intentional and it was only in my head. I keep dying, I keep staying alive, nothing is intentional. They told me to put glitter on my scars, to cut off my fingers and toes and feed them to the earth, they told me to live in ways that forced people to look at me. So I cut my hair, dyed it any color, made people look. What happened was, they stared more at my knuckles, skin that spoke “STAY HERE” and I knew that scared them. Put glitter on your scars, they said. Put paint on your body, push ink up under your fingernails, tell the world you are alive in all the ways you can. So I sang my life on city streetcorners, I screamed my life in fast-moving cars on the highway, I closed my eyes while I was driving straight and I am alive, alive, alive. I keep dying though. Everyday I keep dying and it still feels fresh now, like a new bruise just barely bloomin’ under your skin or your coat. I keep screamin’ to keep the demons at bay, I keep writing to keep the mania movin’ and groovin’ to what life is now. I keep killin’ in my head, I keep killin’ the demons, but sometimes they touch the back of my eyeballs so gentle, I cry so deep, I leak I leak I leak. Put glitter on your scars, they said. I will keep trying. My home is a place in my heart that I haven’t found yet, my home is watercolors and ink and blood. To the ones who have wondered, I am still alive. Some days I barely speak, but don’t worry because I am still so alive, I am still screaming to myself, I am still putting glitter on my scars, I am still writing life into my skin, I am still putting water and sun on my face. I am still curling my toes when I hear good songs. I am still wanting to run when the boys look at me. I know they want. I know I want something else, something you. I have turned my bruises into landscapes, my fingers into dancing sprawling actions, my fists are still here, I swear. They still say “STAY HERE.”

My Psychiatrist Asked if I Knew How to Use the Knife I Carry Around For Protection, and I laughed, "No." "Well, thank God you have it."
The first time I died, it wasn’t intentional and it was only in my head. I keep dying, I keep staying alive, nothing is intentional. They told me to put glitter on my scars, to cut off my fingers and toes and feed them to the earth, they told me to live in ways that forced people to look at me. So I cut my hair, dyed it any color, made people look. What happened was, they stared more at my knuckles, skin that spoke “STAY HERE” and I knew that scared them. Put glitter on your scars, they said. Put paint on your body, push ink up under your fingernails, tell the world you are alive in all the ways you can. So I sang my life on city streetcorners, I screamed my life in fast-moving cars on the highway, I closed my eyes while I was driving straight and I am alive, alive, alive. I keep dying though. Everyday I keep dying and it still feels fresh now, like a new bruise just barely bloomin’ under your skin or your coat. I keep screamin’ to keep the demons at bay, I keep writing to keep the mania movin’ and groovin’ to what life is now. I keep killin’ in my head, I keep killin’ the demons, but sometimes they touch the back of my eyeballs so gentle, I cry so deep, I leak I leak I leak. Put glitter on your scars, they said. I will keep trying. My home is a place in my heart that I haven’t found yet, my home is watercolors and ink and blood. To the ones who have wondered, I am still alive. Some days I barely speak, but don’t worry because I am still so alive, I am still screaming to myself, I am still putting glitter on my scars, I am still writing life into my skin, I am still putting water and sun on my face. I am still curling my toes when I hear good songs. I am still wanting to run when the boys look at me. I know they want. I know I want something else, something you. I have turned my bruises into landscapes, my fingers into dancing sprawling actions, my fists are still here, I swear. They still say “STAY HERE.”

it had better be the best of me want to go out kickin’ & screamin’ with words that rip those ***** bandages holding us together, rip’em with more than the merest passing ounce of a simplistic ouch poetry, a sun reflector of the daily of living, you’re up, then floor crawling, not for the first time, and most likely, you never saw the sucker- sunburn-(pow)-punch hitting you from behind the muddling of memories, them, that can weep and sweep you into comfort, sustained, by the knowing at that exact moment, I, gave you the best of me no joke; yeah I’m young(ish), partied hard, fell hard-in love. only to be busted opened up, like too many else…nothing there to write home about, but to write a poem that survives in someone else’s heart, that would be miraculous, as grand as the grand things and truly great people I know, but hello, poets, this promise, for real but David Foster, et.al, said all this better, and so melodiously ~~~ “And I think I've gone this far Because of you Could be no other love but ours Will do No one will ever touch me more And I only hope that in return No matter how much we have to learn I saved the best of me for you”

Hello Poets, If This, My Last Poem Be, Perhaps,
I couldn’t have no bunch ‘a “Baby-Daddies” hanging around my life Jugglin’ ‘em- and tryin’ a keep track of What each was supposed to do for his And when And how And how much Naw…that ain’t my style ~ I’m the lady that he introduces to other ladies in his life I’m the lady that he takes to dinner with his mama I’m the lady who Can stand up under his friend-girl’s scrutiny and Bear the weight of his auntie’s infamous stare I got Way too much class to have too many babies With too many different daddies Right? You understand what I mean… ~ So when I looked up And I had ****** up And was knocked up By another woman’s husband… (With my classy self) Well… that just would not do at all I mean I may be PRO-Choice But in truth I had NO choice Right? You understand what I mean…? ~ Hell, Too many kids and girl might Fool around and end up a “pogo stick” And I ain’t no **** pogo stick… You know… “Fun to bounce around on- But no self-respecting grown man Will be seen in public with one…” I had NO choice… Right? ~ It wadn’t so bad… Once I got past the Nightmares of vacuums and clogged ******* sounds and the pain in my guts and the bleedin’ ‘til I chafed and the crying ‘til I puked and the sore leaking ******* and the   Hole in my soul… It wadn’t so bad… ~ And it had to be done Right? ~ Besides, I lived through it… And in the end-   it’s all about ME You understand what I mean… You hear what I’m screamin’? You hear What AAAAHM SCREEEAAAMING!!!?

Blessed be the civil war brewing in the newsfeed I just hope both teams have fun If it’s not our bodies tryna **** us, It’s confirmation bias with a gun Cause we live in a society stranger than satire Doomscrollin’ infinity For the next dumpster fire If all the world’s a stage Then my anxiety is a crisis actor When all the world’s enraged I’m screamin’ CLASS WAR in the theater Blessed be these antidepressants With side effects like suicidal ideation Heaven left all thoughts and prayers on read Now thats what I call getting holy ghosted Full send to divine abandonment In a digital sea of arrogance Your favorite God is smashing The laugh reaction While the body count rises Achievement unlocked: death to empathy Is this ******* play about us Or are we all just NPC? Cursed with Main Character Syndrome, Glitching out behind the scenes- playing the victim Is the origin of your villain Cause we live in a society Stranger than satire Doomscrollin’ infinity For the next dumpster fire Just to tell everyone you’ve been enlightened

We Live in A Society, BOTTOM TEXT
based on a song by Bob Dylan oh, what did you see my blue eyed son? oh, what did you see my darling young one? i saw an old man with feet that were bleeding i saw a young child with eyes that were pleading i saw an old frigate it's sails black and rotten a man on an island who's soul was forgotten a poet in chains, an artist in prison a fiery phoenix who's newly arisen and it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard rain's a'gonna fall and what did you hear my blue eyed son? what did you hear my darling young one? a man played a trumpet through teeth that were broken i heard the last kind word that ever was spoken the tears of a whale upon a red beach the flutter of flags the last truth to be preached a man a'screamin a maiden a'mournin a valley a'drownin a mountain a'formin and it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard rain's a'gonna fall... so what will you do my blue eyed son? oh, what will you do my darling young one? i'll throw my arms out and shake fists at the sky! i'll never stop asking... i want to know why! i'll never forget the man with the lie! i'll fight the good fight... and then i will die! 'cause it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard... it's a hard rain's a'gonna fall!

hard rain
I'm gettin' tired of tellin' everybody how bad she treats me now. I keep hearing myself buzzing round and round, Like a disgruntled honey bee, who can't find his hive nor his queen. I'm a broken record by now, you know what I mean. So I sit here on this dry, sunny day, Drinkin' whiskey and singing the same song when I play. I guess I just wanted her to hear me say. I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. She came in looking like a sin, struttin' past my way looked me over then said, "You shouldn't gawk that way". Then I stood up, gave in and took her home anyway, She slipped out before the light of day. So I say, I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. When you look she's divine, then find out she's a demon. You wake up in the middle of the night, She's got you hollerin' and screamin'. What do you get when you love a razor with the body of Venus? You just say, I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. I'm goin' back home now, done with her anyhow, anyways. Find some land with horses, sheep, orchard trees and some cows. This bee don't care no more 'bout his queen or the colony. Before I left, I shot her down, then ran from the felony. Don't do what I did, but I meant when I say, I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. I didn't like that, no. I really didn't like that. I really didn't like that.
