Couple Days Past, Couple Poems Posted

4/10--for the 9th, and pain and perspective...be well people, be well.

30 days 30 ways
poetry came in 2nd 
to real life.
Real strife    
quarantine, mean machine
now no likes
We just 
hard words and hard rocks,
sayin’ ill shit, ready to split
get heads knocked
No leggo toys livin’ here
we ain’t connectin’ 
refuse to listen,
get me pissed, and 
now you missin’ 
No mama no drama 
lawyer up like llamas
tight like fish pussy 
when the pallet get to pushin’ comas--
Pause.
30 days of damn and doubt
bad times bad seconds no dreams
30 days of mask, with no seams
Threads are losers to mother goose,
get the noose for your neck
and dangle will your spine--
But Daddy’s here, have no fear
we all clear, like 
Father Time

Forgive, forget, move
Makes no sense, three plus years past
Where would I even go

Some days hurt,
worse than life’s hard hits;
harboring insecurities 
at home like
inequalities above and 
below,
Mason Dixon lines.
Life 
written and scribbled
on lines; life-lines 
seeking liberty 
from liberated ideals
(...got the individual this far)
Not supposed to be, 40 plus
when history is 
hung in the 90’s--
(blessings happen)
I am a man
My mind, My thoughts
My own--
can’t tell another,
how to feel.
Forged in the struggle
blade,
in the belly of family.
One night stand 
spawned 
as standing strong 
rips at reality;
and standing single 
is a possible future.
