sitting in the dark
heat swelling
trees in my head mellowing
beats saying hello and inviting me over to freak
can’t say no
melody so cool it’s freezing
just what i need
a breeze across my body
wishing on a star
the sky lit up
in came the storm
the rhythm got me rocking
still air moved by frequencies beyond the terms east or west
a song
some singing
from somewhere
in the dark
the other night some drunk kid said as I passed “that’s some strut”
trying to be funny, tough talking because my muscles don’t pop,
not knowing that the way I walk fast is because I had to hustle..
having life is lucky but my success comes from never giving up,
they thinking I want fame, I’m surprising because I only need love
no funny names, no alias, just what I was given, water to a world on fire
Be cool and keep your head up
they think I’m thin because I wanna be, now I’m trendy,
if only they knew before I had too much pride for free lunch
and no one packed one for me,
they see the brand new gear but they didn’t see me struggling wishing I could laugh
wishing anyone would understand , back when all I had were notebooks in my bag
Living in a world where crooks rule the land and if you can’t win you go out with a bang
that’s not the way I pursue happiness I could fight every time someone assumes I can’t
I’d rather give peace a chance
knowing my ideas outlast my body
Peace&Light

This is a song for the genius child.
Sing it softly, for the song is wild.
Sing it softly as ever you can -
Lest the song get out of hand.Nobody loves a genius child.
Can you love an eagle,
Tame or wild?
Can you love an eagle,
Wild or tame?
Can you love a monster
Of frightening name?Nobody loves a genius child.
Kill him – and let his soul run wild.
Langston Hughes
maps. digital. or globes. like the ones that were in every new york city public school. now i have google. and ‘click’ on the -pictures box and
words………………. written in text digital… in images of ancient marks on long forgotten walls
the internet really does have everything. it’s overwhelming. but somehow we find certain things. when we know what we’re looking for, we find it
roads
somewhere the road stops
somewhere someone kept walking
sometimes i think i can read lips does that mean i can decipher a kiss?
i’m buggin.
the stars shine and i feel like i can say their light is singing reminisce
yes mary J … reminisce on the love we had
and i can decipher everything it seems but my own mind
ain’t that a bitch
it’s all good
‘Terra’ is the latin word for our Planet
it means from dirt
which we all eventually return
i’m cool with that
dedicated to our beautiful Mother Earth
peace & light
Shine on

I’m fixing my sleeping schedule.
I’ve been awake quite a while.
It’s a beautiful day.
I just got out of the shower…
and there were 573 new tweets by the time I got back.
Ya’ll mofo’s tweet a lot.
It’s all good.
I’ve got too many blogs in draft. I much prefer the ink.
I’m exporting in all forms.
I’m looking forward (as always) to June.
This event is going to be good in #NYC -
keep rockin world
peace

Apple vs. Oranges
Exploring in the forest for Origins
of gravity laws and man’s descent
the motivation fell on my head
as I sat one day thinking about when
I could
create everything in this big brain of mine
and it was funny just as I thought, that a sign
things changed
and now there’s progress
more people connected who understand that East is West
Against is For
When it’s Apples vs. Oranges
Right vs. Left, Capitalism vs. Communism
Food to eat vs. A college education
How much you have vs. How much you should be making
Olive (http://twitter.com/P10S) over at Pen10scribes a network site for Poets/Writers (http://pentenscribes.ning.com/) was nice enough to DM me on twitter asking if I would submit something for something she’s putting together. I like the idea of 10 lines. Could be 10 long sentence, or just 10 lines like I’ve done. Here’s what I sent her -

these are my prayers
these songs I play loud because the silence overcame my mind before I could bring words to my lips
they spoke for me
i didn’t feel comfortable in a church or kneeling before a priest but this
THIS sound I hear is IT
THIS is the answer and I believe it is my only way to deal with my demons
the only way to accept that yesterday really did happen and we CAN’T go back
but we can listen, we can listen and see the light of stars long gone
Shining… Shining beyond the weak boundaries of the human body
fragile creatures with invincible thoughts
