BOOK EXCERPT:

An acid raindrop stains her caramel complexion
Lips glistening red
Sweeter than a candy apple confection
She walks with agility and surety
In her breast lies honesty and purity
Untainted by this masquerade
She is the leader of this life’s parade
Today she dreams of yesterday
And hope for tomorrow
Knowing that life can bring sorrow
She embraces today with her sensuality
Arousing all the possibilities
I lust for her caress
Full of peace and tranquility
Seduce me with your intellect
Cause I need more than just sex
Let me feel what you feel 
When you feeling what you feel
Just what is it about you sista
Lord knows I wanna get wit’cha
From when I was first blessed by your unexplained
Having you in my thoughts
Just could not refrain
Your presence brings a smile to my face but I try to stay cool
Cause this ain’t the time or the place
Damn she got me shook Trying to find her number 
Searching the phone book
Maybe under a rainbow is where I’ll find you
I’m certain I won’t need to remind you
Of who I am, where we met
With the spell you put on me 
How could you forget
Let me bring you into the present
Tell you my love is of the essence
The type that cannot be surpassed 
Like sands flowing through the hourglass
For you this thing is essential
So I offer it in its fullest potential

 

SILVER BRACELETS

Flames emerge from my mouth
As a tear leaves my eye
For my hate 
I have no alibi
There is no comfort 
For the pain I feel
As I reminisce
Of cold hard steel
I have been raped
But not of the flesh
Of all my dignity
And hopes of progress
