"startin" poems
Seems like Words are failing Maybe We should use our mouths For other things How about kissing? Right there On that part of my naval As I brush your hair Maybe I'll let out a little sigh As you linger there for a while Look up and smile Pretty eyes got me gazing Words may be failing but There's other ways to speak Your hands gently trailing got my body feeling Weak Self control startin to slip Better watch my mouth As I bite your lip It stings But not the way words do No need for censorship This mouths being used for other things Maybe to let out a laugh,a little grin As you make your move To help me relax and Leave your mark on my skin Raising the heat Got me craving! Tongues may be wagging In the morning But ours are for tasting So what do you say? Mmm don't speak. My hearts racing Legs shaking As you play your mouth piece Sighhhh And I Might just have to pull you in tight Might just have to have you all night But don't worry It's our lil secret, I won't say a thing Words may have failed us But mouths don't need words To do wonderous things ;)

Mouth Piece
I'm startin' to run out of nursery rhymes So, I made up one of my own It's about a nearsighted plumber That was accidently glued to his throne Once upon a time, long, long ago There was a plumber, who I'll call Dale Poor old Dale had a hard time plumbing Cause he really couldn't see very well He'd gotten a call, "The toilet won't flush! Please, can you come right away?" Well, old Dale got in such a hurry He forgot to take his glasses that day Well, by the time old Dale had got there The house was in quite a mess He realized he'd forgotten his glasses But he'd give that toilet his best He'd not seen this since plumbing school But then, he only saw it on a test And by the time, he got his tools together The water was starting to crest He had spotted the problem right away But remember now, he can only half see The water was squirtin' six feet high And poor Dale was only five foot three He laid his glue on the toilet seat While trying his best not to drown He couldn't see where he put it at And, of course, that's where he sat down He didn't even know 'till it was too late He'd bent over to loosen a nut And that's when he first noticed that thing The toilet was glued to his **** So, if you ever need a real good plumber He's the man for the job, without fail And I hope you enjoyed this story About the nearsighted plumber named Dale I forgot tell you, there's one more thing About the nearsighted plumber named Dale That man still has that toilet seat For the thing's still glued to his tail © All Rights Reserved

Johnny and Mary Now Johnny knew Mary since they were little tykes, Running in the field, riding their bikes, Like other little kids, they stayed out all day, Doing their chores, later they'll play, Johnny and Mary went to school, Tried real hard, act real cool, Johnny noticed Mary started to grow real fine, Nice firm ******* big behin', Johnny thought he'd take him a chance, He asked Mary to the high shool dance, Mary said fine, pick me up at eight, Dress real sharp, now don't be late, Johnny started thinkin' this could be his night, Throw her a line, maybe she'll bite, Johnny and Mary started to dance real slow, Something in Johnny's pants, startin' to grow, Johnny asked Mary to spend some time, Back at my place, we can sit and unwind, Johnny took Mary straight back to his pad, This will be the best night, he's ever had, Poured a little wine and dimmed the light, Made sure everything, looked just right, Went over to the stereo and put on a song, Then he gave her a kiss, slow and long, Their lips met and their tongues did a dance, As Johnny reached down and undid his pants, He removed hers too and went to town, Got on his knees, he was going down, Mary started to wiggle, moan and squirm, As Johnny's tool got nice and firm, A few more licks, a feel and a pet, Mary's hole was nice and wet, Stuck in the tip, a little poke, Then all the way, he was startin' to stroke, As Johnny got busy and started to ream, All the neighbors could hear Mary scream, Johnny got tense and was about to explode, Into Mary he shot his load, A few days later Mary felt real ill, Then she remembered, she forgot her pill, Mary gave birth to a fine looking son, Mary's father started to clean his gun, Johnny married Mary at City Hall, He didn't want her dad to cut off his ***** Johnny got a job so he could provide support, He didn't want Mary draggin' him to court, A few years down the road things didn't seem right, Johnny and Mary were starting to fight, There was a whole lotta fussin' and they began to shout, Mary told Johnny she wanted him out, Mary got a lawyer, just passed the bar, Now Mary's driving Johnny's brand new car. That is the story of Johnny and Mary...Later... 07-03-09.

All you folks in paper hats, You think paper's where it's at. Paper suits and paper ties, Don't you know that paper lies? Paper silver, paper gold, Paper's bought and paper's sold. Does paper have any worth? It's just a tree cut from the earth. Your god is Almighty Paper, Presidents are your deal makers... Paper lions, paper hearts, In the end they're torn apart. Paper tigers, paper souls, Punch them and they're full of holes. Paper masks and paper streamers, All you are are paper dreamers. Whatever happened to your returns? Don't you know that paper burns? Some CEO's are thieves and liars, Out there startin' forest fires! Where's the nest egg of older folk? Their retirement's up in smoke! Greed is what we're talkin' here, And all it is is paper fear. "Will I keep up? Is mine the best?" They're just kids in paper vests. *"If you don't leave my paper alone, I'll just take my paper home..."* Paper boats and paper toys, For paper girls and paper boys, Paper backs and paper chase, 'Fraid you'll lose the paper race? Paper masks and paper schemers, All you are are paper dreamers. Deep inside, your spirit screams! There's no substance to your dreams! All you are is dust and spit? H2O and dirt...That's it? Don't you feel that *hole inside? Put away your paper pride!* What will happen when you die? When you find it's all a lie?! You know I'm telling you the truth. You've wasted your life, you've lost your youth. If you've a question, why not ask it? Just more paper for your basket? Magazines, newspapers, what's in print? More paper for the Treasury's mint? C'mon people! Lets get real! This is **not Let's Make A Deal!!** Door #1, or 2, or 3?!!! Is that how you deal with ETERNITY? You'd better be sure you're on the dime, Cuz eternity's a long, LONG time. Paper wings? Or paper veils? Paper heads, or paper tails? Keep life in a paper cup? Guess what? Your time is UP. SoulSurvivor Catherine Jarvis (C) March 8, 2009

Paper Dreamers
All you folks in paper hats, You think paper's where it's at. Paper suits and paper ties, Don't you know that paper lies? Paper silver, paper gold, Paper's bought and paper's sold.

Paper tigers, paper souls, Punch them and they're full of holes. Paper masks and paper streamers, All you are are paper dreamers. Whatever happened to your returns? Don't you know that paper burns?

*All I wanted was a night out on the town with her With all the love and adoration that I promised her Fitted cap on my head, felt like a trend setter A mental slap from my momma; I should’ve known better. Picked her up, and I was starin’ at her gorgeous outfit Her fitted top, her cotton blouse, and lookin’ fine without it Honored to stand beside her, I didn’t mind the clues I found her very attractive wearin’ designer shoes Took her out to dinner, we’re conversin’, Lobster in citric acid – she devours, thinks it’s worth it The in-house chef comes at our table and asks, “This is the fifth time you’ve ordered, So can you make this your last?” The check is at our table; I offer to pay for it She doesn’t even glance, pullin’ out her phone I noticed her nails; she paid a lot for ‘em Dinner was very painful She wants me over? I'm startin' to see her fatal halo On our way to her place, a man was gettin’ robbed I’m shoutin’ at the attackers - she’s actin’ very odd Tell her to call the cops to try and get these boys to stop, “Sorry but I’m in a hurry! I’ll see you at the spot.” Ten minutes later I’m racin’, and knockin’ at her door, Reachin’ her place and I notice she’s pacin’ back and forth, She’s on the phone with a ***** who stole her ex from her Angry detonation soon as she got a text from her She tells a “Jada” on the phone, ***** I don’t give a **** Jada responds “wantin' to let you know and wish you luck.” But you can tell that she was jealous of Jada’s position Her ex is treatin’ her better, happy with his decision I’m wonderin’ what happened; turns out that Jada’s pregnant “She thinks I care about that, knowin’ that I resent him!” She claims she’s better than Jada in every single way With self-respect and sayin’ prayers every single day Seekin’ some validation, she’s beggin’ for a kiss Intimate opportunity, she’s hopin’ not to miss Her sweet, angel hazel eyes are lookin’ sour ‘cause I’m just exhausted and feelin’ the witchin’ hour buzz She lashes out; I see the reason why this girl is single Admits to cheatin’ on her ex and so she’s out to mingle Pulls out a lash and then proclaims that I should punish her?! I’m out the door within’ seconds cause I’m so done with her!*

I’ll see you at the spot.” Ten minutes later I’m racin’, and knockin’ at her door, Reachin’ her place and I notice she’s pacin’ back and forth, She’s on the phone with a ***** who stole her ex from her Angry detonation soon as she got a text from her She tells a “Jada” on the phone, ***** I don’t give a **** Jada responds “wantin' to let you know and wish you luck.” But you can tell that she was jealous of Jada’s position Her ex is treatin’ her better, happy with his decision I’m wonderin’ what happened; turns out that Jada’s pregnant “She thinks I care about that, knowin’ that I resent him!” She claims she’s better than Jada in every single way With self-respect and sayin’ prayers every single day Seekin’ some validation, she’s beggin’ for a kiss Intimate opportunity, she’s hopin’ not to miss Her sweet, angel hazel eyes are lookin’ sour ‘cause I’m just exhausted and feelin’ the witchin’ hour buzz She lashes out; I see the reason why this girl is single Admits to cheatin’ on her ex and so she’s out to mingle Pulls out a lash and then proclaims that I should punish her?! I’m out the door within’ seconds cause I’m so done with her!*

*I have to be honest.

I'm beggin', begging... really really beggin' you... not to test me My words are infectious and I have so many tricks up my sleeve So many different techniques to make you fold Tired of the possibilities you hang in front of me... shit's gettin' old And I'm sure, Oh I'm so sure you thought you had the lead, but when you looked up all you saw was the back of me Just watch how well I don't give a **** What? You need an example, well here's a sample, nah better yet... a handful I kissed you, you kissed me, I left you, you chased me Trust, it's not how I wanted it to be But I can't be locked in a box just cause you get lonely People need air, people need their own time even when there's none to spare An affectionate perfectionist, checking me in with a check list It could only go on for so long before I would start to not give a **** So now you wanna threaten me about tellin' people how you got the best of me Keep it... You got the best of 5%, you never even saw the rest of me The slander and random banter is really startin' to **** me off though The last thing you want is to ***** with me, trust me your not ready Embarrassment you'll bare if I open my mouth has no remedy So... I'm beggin', begging... really really beggin' you... not to test me -J.A.M

The way I keep flowing in slow motion got em hoping what I'm floatin is a certain kind of motion of the perpetual style They say its dope but its not its just something i use to cope i think this sugar pill's been coated in something i ain't had in a while now my eyes are gettin hazy i'm startin to feel a bit faded these lights are bright and people are screamin i've got a feeling that they're wanting something from me something to call stunning something to call touching but even if these words that i'm spitting are really ugly these two shining behind me make it lovely then the room falls hushed its like someone dimmed the lights suddenly, i'm alone on the stage me and the mic trying to convey what i write into speech tonight there's a slight chill in the air but the moon shines bright it gives me power helps me make sure that i rock right excuse me, step correct we clean up the mess and wasted sets from the players who came before us that we left for dead its like the wild wild west though were on the east coast you're rockin with host with the most you didn't know? i've got itch in my throat but the fans won't even know how could they? listen to them, man they think its dope I know you're all waiting to keep hearing me gloat but gimme a sec, wont you just let me clear my throat (DJ KOOL n OUT)

Twenty sixteen on some shrooms Was all about them waves In all the overcrowded rooms Of resolution slaves Diggin' raves While I was ditchin' This red solo cup existence By filling up my head with a Reality resistance Through the sands of time I sifted Back to all the wasted years How my need for speed had shifted From its crash and burnout gears Sippin' beers While I was waitin' For my turn to dance with Satan With my blackened liver hopes and dreams Slowly disintegratin' My cuckoo clock then hatched a plan Perhaps in trippin' I would fall In love with her and understand The purpose of this droppin' ball Startin' small While I was tryin' To ensure she'd keep replyin' To the messages I sent From satellites that I was flyin' Passion then my only crime We melted winter snows But sparks inside my opened mind Had wilted like a rose Hittin' lows While I was missing My Lucy skylight diamond ring   Traded in for but a taste Of the only finer thing Obsessions made of solid gold The price of my adventure Possessions that I could not hold Outweighed her sweet surrender As it were While I was teeming With a world of peaceful dreaming I overlooked the only one That ever gave mine meaning *And suddenly it seems that I Am twenty seventeening*

2016: A Love Story
Billie Jean is not my lover. My dear neither are you. I can't get over The Way You Make Me Feel. There is nothing I can do. If only things were Black or White, I might not be confused. I Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'. Boy you're giving my the blues. Can't you see I'm a Pretty Young Thing? Just Give In to Me. Surely you see I'm a Supafly Sister. Why You Wanna Trip On Me? Maybe it's just my Human Nature. Maybe I'm just Too Young. Everybody's Somebody's Fool. Just hope I'm not your one. I just want you to Hold My Hand, But I guess it's Much Too Soon. It's just that you give me Butterflies. Now I want to Rock With You. You might think that it's Dangerous, So you might want to be Just Good Friends. But I think we should Come Together. I'd be the best Girlfriend!

Mama knew since i was a fetus My future minorities cops would beat us Im screamin' **** they feelings No love for the police We used to run the streets Now fools is scared to get beat Face defeat I learn from.scornful.memory Of my 400 years oppression Ancestry My nigguhs aint hearin' me To busy buyin' ******** that media sells Smokin' blunts brains fryin' I aint lyin' Peep the game 48 to chose from Dont you know you we apart of Jerusalem? Got knowledge no longer dumb When the war starts sound the drum Aint no telling Where this world is headin' So many deep in the game Tryna make fame and a name Only to be buried with much shame ******* In the hood got us insane When it was started by Regans Gang But i still hang With my homies on the block Tryna teach n preach These brothers to stop But **** it never fails Always a hater on my tail So many chasin' after dead slave master And leavin' a grande disaster Been cocked d since the days of elementary Seen many brothers behind the penitentiary But I dont worry I gotmy mind made up Breakin' the jaws off the Romans law Now they wakin' up Tryna stop me from startin' this Revolutionary Fools still belivin' in fairy tales My lifes out on bail We gotta make our own team Intellect over cream But it seems We'll never come together Too busy fightin' each other While these muthafuckas killin' us daily So once again will we roam The streets ? Are you afraid of the punk police??? Now ask ya self?

Writing poetry means a lot to me, Its effect on me is something that others can easily see. It makes me happy, it makes me outgoin’, It’s so much that all of my emotions are showin’: I mean, I’m happier than I’ve ever been, I haven’t been this happy since I don’t even know when. I’m not even bein’ lazy, I swear, I’m startin’ to go crazy I’m even able to just walk up to strangers and sing, Don’t get me wrong, though, I’m not sayin’ it’s a bad thing. I think that’s it’s awesome, Cuz thanks to poetry, my life is so much more fun.
