Write* me down
Paint me bright
Draw me beautiful
Watch me fight

Know my heart
Feel my soul
Think about me
Don't lose control

Don't let me fade
Don't let me die
Show me the way
Don't make me cry

Sing my chorus
Type my plays
Remember my words
Love me **always

Thinking Out Loud
Sometimes
I look at couples

with their perfect families

               holding tight to a
kaleidoscope
          of joy

and I wonder
why everything I see

is so black and white

        and I wish
someone could show me
a glimpse
                  of color that doesn't fade

I do not expect you to be perfect for me; because I myself am not perfect either.

The only thing I expect from thee is to be atleast normal, and normal is not necessarily popular.
Smoking is popular, but its not normal.
Being a slacker is popular, but its not normal.
Bisexual is popular, but its not normal.
Plastic surgery and too much make-up and is popular, but its not normal...
And posting all your business on twitter/facebook is popular, but its not normal.
Yours truly.

Unkind critics would say that poetry is a waste of time! It is garbage and predictable and that anyone could jump in and write those words without much effort.
But then again, critics don't know much about writing, which is why they're critical.

Ghetto conceived at night, aborted by the morning sun. The cost of living is too high! Even mother nature can't afford to raise the morning sun...

Pay-day: where is father time when you need em? Perhaps he'll come home tonight drunk again! With some leftovers from BurgerKing. Braging and singing about his brandnew Italian shoes that are now hurting his feet...

Me: Its Friday night, I decided to go out again. And seek for warmth in the dark shadows of my neighborhood. Death(gun) is my only friend. He's the only one who keeps me warm and my stomach full everytime I BANG him!

The Jolteon
Globally
The 80 richest people
Have as much wealth as 50% of the human population (3.5 billion)

What is the resolution
For 2015
Economic inequality
Is raging the world over
Let our speak of peace
Resonate with reality
Attach it to the peace of mind
Of economic security
What ever happened
To the war on poverty in the USA?
Replaced with a phony war on Drugs and now Terrorism
Black Panthers were militantly against poverty
The FBI stated the greatest threat from the Panthers
Was not the guns
Was not violence
It was the Free Children's Breakfast Program started in Oakland
Where they fed hungry poor kids
Now tell me where the progress is
Because there are still hungry poor kids in Oakland
There is still poverty
The world over
As we welcome 2015
Let us truly fight for peace
