Empath ran from herself
Drinking the sweet of mother’s milk
She would cry because
no need to look inside
Never need to smile.
Eyes watching continuously.
Always think to hear the train come
Forever and again I seek them
to take me from where I am
Human
Always needing attention
Cause the physical is the need to be reborn
Feeling all of life
and thinking soft
Internal external world
is what we got
Think and create for every thought
Hands will have begotten
the Child born
------
Young love
So sweet the magic
of being born this body
To feel your arms
and listening to my heartbeat
as you wrap silky cloth of love over me.
Excitement smooth
Enticing, wanting more
to forever lie in your midst
------
God tells you why
when you feel your eye
widen at the sight of
tears fallen
Cause the ego gotta go
and lie down
so she knows when to chill
and let the creator
uphold the story
of these footsteps
walking like silent words
telling in action
never to plead for fame
gave thanks in sacrifice’s name
Never talk of shame.
Give thanks to the sun burning down
Like the feeling of leaves toastin
under the summer sun
Only now its because
truth all around.
Obvious
clear and bright
it touches even at night
--------
Beats lantern glow
fireflies dance
trance through darkness
in love they kiss the night
focus on good times
cause the wish is never to take
for your own
but to share
and your arms to care.
--------
I feel love
it is warm
that begins deep inside
and radiates
like a pool rippling
Never to end but always
echoing
Within vast spaces
to be one day full
Like a face smiling.
Free mind from crying
and life shall rise
like spirit flying high
away from captivity
Let go of worry
and let the moment flow
Each second is sacred
something we create
Why not give love
as a gift that we take
for us nothing at all.
Empath drinks the environment
and it fills her like water
when thirsty
tasting of the tongue
is the buds of her mind
Sound and matter
dance in a circle
choose the middle
where all is tranquil
Send a mail of hope
to the troubled
Let go the chatter.

We are at a crossroads
We are at a crossroads
standing hand in hand.
Looking over the horizon
does time drip like sand.
Fast asleep is the moment
as it is drifting toward the black
Resting we close our eyes
though others never come back
laughter is an echo
tears are in secret
rooms we hide emotions
just so we forget
regret we melt like butter
sizzling in the pan
just to lick the cream
and get fat off the land
hands are in a fist
react to the taste
change the flavor
chance we recreate
scratch the surface with our thirst
digging for the truth
pure it tastes like water
we drink from the root
then we know we stand
on all the same foot
underneath us all
are the pages of the book
unfolding are the chapters
we write with each step
eyes that scan the future
read with patience
satiate the haste
turmoil and strife
open the doors
we live in same life
dancing upon the stage
some smile up some smile down
at the rise of the wave
existences' sound drowns
standing hand in hand.

see me next to you
We declare reform
but who wants to let go
the pain of the future
is to admit
who needs convenience
in isolated worlds
with insulated windows
where the life of grit and crime
is just the plight of the passerby
We scream revolution
as if status quo was a ghost
that haunts old corners
of founding fathers
fondling newborns
new rules to uphold
they whisper from cracks in foundations
we shiver how cold
is the genuine guidance
Is there a leader in the midst
or is it fickle as the mist
the pendulum swing
even for the lifted fist
Somewhere, somehow
can visions manifest
but who’s eye is right
when half looks to the left
some can’t connect
others think they’ve done it
still there are those who refuse to break a sweat
what is the hope
even for the white-eyed hopeful
is it okay if tears release fear
become shears
cutting years of overgrown
alien infestation
pervading landscapes
blocking sunlight
by making us believe
there is only one all seeing eye
Gave up insight
never knew our cries
purified
so we can see clean again
and glimmer to reflect
millions of angles
for 360 perspective
each vision a piece
of spherical creation
we are all needed
to believe in what we envision
each thought of inspiration
is a means to heal
pierce through black cloak of illumati
with thoughts
we won’t take anymore suffocation
when metals of death trudge and roll
over organic voices conspiring
we plant new seed just by seeing
injustice and rooting our feet
because the truth is clear as the sun
we stand under together
and we promise
that we shall never falter
because the histories
of black white red and yellow
have intertwined underneath the cement
too many times we’ve struggled
because we felt we’re too different
and yes brother, yes sister
we all do bleed red
but when the time comes
will you break a sweat?
when the time comes
will our hands be connected?
but who wants to let go

is to admit

Ode to the Activist
If I told you I was depressed
would you be there to listen?
or would my tears
Rain on your funeral march?
If I told you
I had premonitions of death
would you think my cultural lens
was negative?
I’m sorry, I guess
I clean my glasses too much
with windex.
Please see me
Cause I see you
Don’t glaze your eyes over me
like I’ve put myself out for sale
Cause I look at you
Like a precious gift
valuable, priceless
To me, you are not dispensable.
I walk the streets
my hands full of fliers
I trip when my wagon flips
on the unmerciful crossroads
Papers are taken by the wind
and my mind flies with them
as I rush to get to the other end
Chaos around the bend
I warn its comin’
by sticking signs along the way
my voice trembles to let you know
sometimes one stops
others keep goin‘.
In my heart I know you know
and you looked up when black crows crowed
think of me as the messenger
who passes the paper on the corner.
I am the visionary
who sees into the future
Something is rolling around the bend
a penny for a thought
is cheaper than death
a moment to listen and discuss
maybe on each other we’ll depend
when they come busting down our doors
and when history goes back again
i’ll want to make sure
that you’ll be my comrade then.
from latin america
to africa and asia
pacific islands and north america
europe and the ends of the world
i’ll want to be sure freedom doesn’t cost
anythin’
i walk the streets
bearing my soul
even though snipers
target my ideology
my wishing so strong
that I dare to stand among
crowds that do not know me
and I speak in hopes they realize that they do.
because my voice trembles when I relay the message
it is the many words of needed justice
I capture in my frequency
I hear you speaking
from across the world
and I am here for you transmitting
My eyes are gleaming with intent
mental pictures of death and destruction
is nothing far fetched--
Someone fell in the distance
Here the picture was painted
Do you see it, or do you refuse to clear your lens
Do you hear the crows crow
or do you not pay attention
You can stop and listen
or just walk on by,
But I hope you understand why
I’m here
I am not here to rain on your funeral march
I am not here to clean your lens
But to let you see the world that I see
and let you know that I will be your friend
I stand here speaking these words
So you know you can come and talk to me
when you feel there needs to be amends...
would you be there to listen?
or would my tears
Rain on your funeral march?
If I told you
I had premonitions of death
would you think my cultural lens
was negative?
I’m sorry, I guess

with windex.
