1,000 TIMES I ASK MYSELF!!

Which rainbow is real, the one in a oil spill after it rains or the one in the

Sky, the cyntrifical force of velocity is diminished on impact – so

Why does life have to cease. Why does population bring about both?

Pain & happiness, is the weight of the word love – equal to or

Lesser than the sum of a whole lifetimes worth of gifts & giving

If I were to walk backwards – could I recollect events as they had

Occurred, can we be edited or erased – a photograph of the spirit

For that particular time is thrown away or destroyed, would a part of

Us die with it.

Peel away the motivational

Also delete the semi – confrontational

Describe to the masses – the consequential

Instill in the future the power of potential

Close your eyes & believe it’s mental

Is the man in the moon ever going to show his face?

Will there ever be a day when there is no human race

Are we steadily destroying our existence by experimenting

All over the place. How fast do you have to be to participate

In the human or rat race

Will there ever be a day when we can say

That we are all equal & not have to wait for the

Movie sequel – is education going to be fun & absorbing

So that this life can provide occupational rewarding

Will I ever be alive to see you smile for real &

With your heart you can actually feel

I AM WAITING FOR THE ANSWER!!!

A BREAKFAST DANISH!!

ACT I:

How are you doing, blazay, blazay, opening gestures to the inevitable

Our inner selves wrestling with the fact

Can’t control the attract

How do we get to where it’s at, oh I’s sorry what is your last name

The beginning of this life’s game.

ACT II:

The sight, the touch, the mental coupling, exterior control

Building the foundation for the onslaught rotation

Dam! An erection, she saw it, don’t touch me, it’s been a long time

I have heard this rhyme, the heat, the blood pressure, I’m coming

In the atmosphere, gotta calm down

Her panties soaked so much, you heard the squishy sound, we are

Of the uncomfortable, what do we do

Being a Gemini, I had somebody to talk to

Stepped back

Set it up

Inquisitiveness!!

ACT III:

Long time in between communique’

But today

The message came, questions asked, exhilaration

Time set for the concentration

Got to be there

It arrived and so did I, we barely talked

Not even a glass of water was needed, so wet with ticiption

The tip, turned into – all the way to the balls

Ooooooh shit, the closeness of the walls, she wasn’t lying

Calm down sir, make it last, make love not war

The moan, the biting, the nibbling, we flying, pulling out to the perimeter

Plunged till there was no more but pelvis

Ten feet of water was the sound of the splash

Coated, I pulled out and licked the evolution of abstinence from the pussy

The thighs choked the shit out of me, no complaint, I laid the velvet like the cake

Bald head pulled up

Let me taste, don’t waste, tongues lightly grinding

Still throbbing, we broke, on my knees I pulled this animal to the edge and

Leaned this weight into this plunge, eyes of mister magoo opened

I almost lost it

At what cost, dam the sun was still out, early in the day, no time for questions

I can’t leave you alone

Oh baby, names called

A collision, some precision, some know how, legs tied in knots around the back

Reached down and cupped this ass, broke my neck in an algebra angle

To suck the beautiful breast of a long time not known

Eyes rolled back as I pushed till I punished

But not being selfish, the whisper conversation (are you ok baby)

Interludes of 2-3 minutes, gazing through drunk eyes, position switching, amazing

FINAL ACT:

Hey I know your name, was it - we couldn’t speak English

Both singing this song, I being the backup singer

We harmonized, in unison we rode

How many times had the pussy died and came back to life, I lost count

For this time I lost my life and died in the lap of luxury

My voice got high as shit, I was hoarse

High fives and no talk

Glazed eyes, bodies looked like that kryspy crème donut, the final bite

Brought us back to reality

I’m sleepy, this sting in the morning was along time in the making, what could

We talk about, but I wasn’t finished putting my name on it

THE EPILOGUE:

No Iwo Jima flag

Just took the steam off that smoking pot, now we have to find

A secluded location, mind racing

Still tasting the nectar on my chin and lips, looking at the protrusion of nipple

Tips, didn’t even get the bra off, just pulled it up so the prize could fall out

Pant around the ankles, duck walking to the bathroom, didn’t even want to

Rinse away the remembrance

Time for breakfast now, animal fulfillment

I’ll call you later, was the amendment

Texting for the next 4-8 hours

Waiting for the encounter in the shower, PAUSE I’M SLEEP

RIGHT AFTER I EAT, D A Y U M, THAT WAS SWEET!!

A QUIET ORCHESTRA

– SOLILIQUIES OF

HUSH (SHHHH)!!

The snowflakes dropped anonymously as they laid a tapestry of distraught

Unbeknownst to the masses, the chaos ensued, non-stagnant artwork

Brought on without provocation, this canvas the navigation, the guidelines

The abrupt occupation, come hither and clutter the masses, send them

Scurrying to the last details, allow not the process of thought and completion

But the rashness of a bad day, minute or hour, for we have begun a seasonal

Cool down, the facial expression is only a smile turned to a frown!

Escape without sunlight for the fog is here, covered in fluffiness of yonder

Precipitation and dew, the temperature drops, the collaboration is utter

Genius in the eyes of the beholder, life’s splendor portrayed, as the sky opens

To pour its mentality out towards the nether, we cannot ascertain the reason

But the happening has no season, for only the rainbow knows what is at the end

Of this act of precision and panic, the natives are restless for clarity is near null

And then out of the heavens, comes the sound of the seagull.

Twinkle, twinkle, flashing on and off, the visual of the fireflies in cadence with

Their own tunes, what is the melody, of the notes they display, the chemistry of

Whom, or the flying away, caught in glasses, for school projects or own

They come to and fro without so much as a moan, showing the way for the

Insect connoisseur, we are an instant question mark, waiting to be known

No wind or waves, do we need to take flight, no harmony or ill advised

As we burn our lights, for we are of the quiet, in army formed from past

And we will be here til this earth has fed it’s last.

Eruption from a projectile, they swim, the English channel, searching for

The holy grail, to produce and to batter the defenses of its opponent

Leaving only one winner, the inner is then penetrated, the cells multiplated

The outcome is a hibernation of sorts, still the journey of the winner is not

Over, by far, for we have to find our place in the human race, a start of some

Of some sorts, to suffer or go forth, our nomenclature is that of
