Please forgive me for any pain I have caused
The numbers are too high for my non-fiscal mind to log
For all the commitments, I made with my fork tongue
I cry to know I have hurt anyone.
It’s not ok to say, “I didn’t mean that”
When I’m sure in the moment, I guaranteed it as fact
I’m sorry for the promises I didn’t keep
When I said I would be on time
But got caught in a web of sleep
What about all the times that I forgot
My mercurial mind makes that happen a lot
Or the sarcasm wit that stems from my mouth
It’s a by-product of being raised in the south
Excuses excuses, I really have none
I take responsibility for hurting anyone
I wish I could take back all the gossip I know I spread
But like Mr. Peabody’s Apples, I can only look ahead
I can’t collect all those feathers Try try try as I might,
Until karma strikes back, and makes it right.
Maybe then I will learn, my lesson in part
About using my voice for something less than, spiritual wisdom to impart
(even when I think it’s art)
Moreover, My friends and neighbors
I hope you don’t think I ever second-guessed your favors
I take nothing for granted; I swear that it’s true
But I’m sure I have faulted in letting you know that I do
If you are reading this, for your forgiveness I request
I am in great debt to your friendship, and truly feel blessed
With that being said, for now at least
I wish you a Happy New Year, with your worries released
Abundance and blessing, miracles and wonders
HUGE Expanding vessel, desire that creates thunders
It’s here for the taking, beginning today
A new year is dawning, like a bountiful buffet
Make the most of it, Indulge in your sharing
Go ahead take risks and be very daring

Grab a hold of yourself
Of all this nonsense
Sifting through the ego's dense
Trying to keep my face in reverent defense
Looking back remembering whence
I was young and dumb
Beating in time to my very own drum
Bible beaters everywhere
While I beat the brain, thinking they care
Exploring life from my perspective
Ignoring all the bullshit from a common collective
What to say when my kids get there
Hammering and clamoring to find their way through the scare
Scrabble haggle
Iranian battle
Who says it's all destruction
I choose to teach a peace influxion
Grab a hold of yourself
Watch what you say
Fighting for YOUR right, is not the way
Whatever it takes be brave, be strong
They will throw you curve balls to tell you you're wrong
Ignore their cry, be blind to their discombobulation
Tell them your messiah is coming, be fierce with jubilation
Dawning now
A new
Creation
Sifting through the ego's dense
Trying to keep my face in reverent defense
Looking back remembering whence
I was young and dumb
Beating in time to my very own drum

Political Disaster
You must understand I have a language
I leave to you to comprehend
Sewing up gashes gushing
Poisons from the past
with needle and thread
Praying that it will last
Material fabrics that weave
Crisscrossing memories that won't leave
Malfunctioning stem cells replete
Begging to be complete
murky vodka muddled with toxic tears crying
manic pandamonium trying
Storms ablaze in islands haitian
swallowing up canes plantation
To capture the essence of mans weakest hour
Groping psychosis, enabling cower
Waiting for an Alaskan princess
To fly her tiara to the ice palace
With her come-fuck-me smile
Ear to ear, to fool u silly - even just for a little while
Republic of fools
Stockmarket drools
Greedy DNA over W's rules
Pioneering for the potential
Of our own mandella
To save our white asses, like an oprahella
Fairy godmother please find her the right shoe
We cannot endure the torture like Nazi Jews
I prefer my fantasy world to your hardened reality
crisscrossing wires
hardened normality
Cosmic Pinball
Damage undone
Wrapped around the arcaid of the universe
Like a pinball, floating through cosmic swirl
I rise above parallel pull, to knots unfurled
Dancing to the edge of the earth
For a momentous cry
Exhasperating with a relief of
Why
The earth's gravity can't keep me down
Nor can it's vast waters, make me drown
I am asking
Tirelessly
Are you grounded by
What's impossible, Evident of bliss
Ending ridiculous, unnerving lists
Calculations complete
Underneath the hot seat
I am scared to arrive unprepared
So easily tricked, taken off guard
Disillusioned with the trick of time
Sealing thunder like crime
the entire universe encapsulated at a single moment flash
within it’s seed, containing your destiny at last
in a second
it’
gone
fast

Conversations Within Myself
Are you what you say you are?
Has your illusion taken you too far?
Envelop me
I am your fear
I am your light and your darkness
Keep me near
Don't push me away
How much do you want
To go on pretending
That everything is perfect
And you think you are winning
How dare you desire
So little from me
I am here to give you everything you need,
but certainly not for free
You don't need to put your arms up
Just be concious, listen, be abrupt.
You have the gift, to see what's in front of you
So use it constructively, but be cautious on who
who you wage your war upon
Choose carefully which side you are on.
You will be tricked - don't forget
But that's not the point, just get what you get.
Stop!
playing!
games with yourself
It's time to reveal
your true inner wealth
Has your illusion taken you too far?
Envelop me
I am your fear
I am your light and your darkness
Keep me near
Don't push me away
How much do you want
To go on pretending
That everything is perfect
And you think you are winning
How dare you desire
So little from me
I am here to give you everything you need,
but certainly not for free
You don't need to put your arms up
Just be concious, listen, be abrupt.

The Emerald City - Not Oz.
I'm not really sure what happened, I began to retreat
But I knew then I was returning, to the complete
It all started to flood, I got really scared
Transported, immediately I felt unprepared
Then instantly it happened
I was transported
almost telepathically, not thwarted
All of the stress and anxiety away
my soul began a journey
For a new day
There, in the emerald city I was
6000 feet above
flood awash down below
I was sparred the drama, that I know
The palace was lofty
Eden it felt like, angels whispering softly
Buildings made of jade
Thankful for the moment, I stopped and I prayed
I took a look around
I was alone, not a human sound
the gardens spoke an eloquent secret treat
"Head up the hill, and you'll find your seat"
When I found that special throne
I knew immediately, I was not alone
I waited patiently, for someone to appear
Felt his presence, calmed by fear
Out of nowhere, He materialized
to take my hand in marriage
suddenly, all the paperclips serialized
Turning around together, we walked to the edge
looked out over the horizon, and jumped off the ledge
secured by a parachute, of angels wings
we landed into the "real word"
with everything that brings
It's all said and done
I can be present now,
together
as
one

Last Saw You ..
Last saw you
Young little girl
Bright red aura
Fiery fierce persona
Then Tough exterior
Now so superior
The urban mom
The dutiful wife
A spiriual force
Who's transformed her life
Seniorita superior
I am thankful
To be in your life
Evermore
Your beautiful family
Inspires me greatly
The love you give them
Unconditional innately
Your battles proven
From whenever then
Scars removeth, from any old sin
Free coffee and doghnuts
That's all it took
Dolly didn't know,
That would be the hook
You are a woman now
Truthful and bright
Now go forth fully
Reveal your light
Fear not what, you can't see
Your greatness is certain, just trust me.

She ..
See the Light of a single frame
into my childhood, I place no blame
I was blessed with so much love and compassion
Given so much, everything in fashion
Nintendo was born
waterbed worn
the 80's was glam
and I was a ham
Music was, my drug of choice
as I started to bloom, I knew I liked boy's
Many artist's blasted, through my ghettos
but Madonna was serving, while I pranced in mom's stilettos
She will never know, She made me who I am
remembering the moments, from my brain I cram
All I can, from lucky star
Madonna gave me wings, and brought me really far
when things got somber, dull and grim
she taught me to jump, out on a whim
to take some chances, follow my heart
Do what it takes, to do my part
So I followed in her footsteps
when I was nineteen
I moved to New York
to follow my dream
Something to laugh at, certainly not
I went through hell, to get where I got
In those moments, I promised to try
Madonna did it, she learned to fly
She gave me wings, when I wanted to cry
and taught me to ask questions, always ask why?
Not to settle, for anything less
be who I am, with
absolutely no regrets
The Universal Laws, have led me here
Thank God I know enough, to have a healthy dose of fear
I am ready now, to take my seat
Next to Madonna, so turn up the heat.
Change the world, returning to one
No other priority, thought many will shun
The Journey Has Just Begun
Fast Forward to Yesterday
Fast forward to yesterday
Who were these souls that came into my life
For better or worse, safety or strife
Fighting for a future
I never knew existed
Gabriel is and always was secretly enlisted
Watching over in perfection, hovering around
Preparing triumphant prophetic sound
Brought me to this day
I am sitting here, seems so far away
Something knew, time traveler, well ago
When darkness wouldn't cease to let go
Spirit was not just some party game
But it did came in pill form, I was not to blame
We knew who it was, sitting there in front of me
I was just as much his process even if he could not see
Relentless lust or Ecstasy crush
Nice to know now, there was no need to rush
That was a while
In two thousand instants, beguile
Before falling towers, or Italian rose buds
Who were these souls that came into my life
For better or worse, safety or strife
Fighting for a future
I never knew existed
Gabriel is and always was secretly enlisted
Watching over in perfection, hovering around
Preparing triumphant prophetic sound
Brought me to this day
I am sitting here, seems so far away

Spirit was not just some party game
But it did came in pill form, I was not to blame
We knew who it was, sitting there in front of me
I was just as much his process even if he could not see
Relentless lust or Ecstasy crush
Nice to know now, there was no need to rush
That was a while
In two thousand instants, beguile
Before falling towers, or Italian rose buds
when the Brady's were reinvented
where bath tubs in kitchen was rented
I hope
to demystify
that urban past
take from what I learned
and let go
at last.

Just a drip
I Am
I am
Hanging on from my heartstrings
Flying high on love wings.
Feeling ecstacy on high
God knows reasons why.
Hanging on from my heartstrings
Flying high on love wings.
Feeling ecstacy on high
God knows reasons why.
All right here
As I begin
to Fly
I am
Found.
Practically there
What about my words
Are forceful
Unclear?
I am
Assured of my stance
True and pragmatic
Euphoric trance
Feeling it fierce
Poised for
Circumstance
Becoming
Self
I am
Found.

Facing Facts
I found some old journals, I used to keep
They contained secrets of my life, all unfinished
incomplete
Notes and scribbles, occupied me for hours
It’s contents weren’t exactly, roses and flowers
I kept myself awake
fighting desperately
an impatient ache
Whispering to my heart
Focused fully
The feeling began to start
Urbania in lust
A time before
I knew there was such
Stories upon stories
Keeping track
of then
Finding comfort from perils
Bound by the heart
Digging up the weeds from the start
Day one.

Psychobabble Spiritualis
Timing is everything. Supposedly so .
Why do I find it difficult to just let go
Finding something, just for you
Knowing that it will come, you don’t know who
Following a truth, that many have lead before
Being present in the moment, persevering the bore
Know that it is right
Know that it is proven
Stick tight to the plan
Before you go cruisin
What I can not see
I am limited by
So I have to trust what is there
Even when it goes awry
Fallen Angels
Naked Saints
Glowing Porsches
Glamour it paints
Tragedy is comedy
Comedy is dramady
Paradoxal shift in conciousness
Prosthetic harmony
Something really so much more
Simple as walking, through a door
Pass through the post, say’s it’s word,
Through another dimension, how fucking absurd
I’ve heard crazier things
I have to admit
I’ve even sacrificed a chicken,
If you believe that shit.
42 letters
72 names
destroying ego’s
crazy mindgames.
It’s nuts though
You laugh and kackle
You’ve read it all
And you think its debacle
But the truth is
This shit works
I know first hand, with all it’s quirks
Had I chosen another direction
I wouldn’t be here, as I formentioned.

... Dream's of Flying
Finally.
I have been waiting for the moment to return.
I lay in alpha-state, wheel's churn
I used to go there a lot
A lot. and regularly, sometimes not.
There is something about when it takes place
effortlessly usually, with such grace
I just put my arm's out to my side
point my feet, look up and take flight
momentum - upwards lift
never second guessing my natural born gift
It's a good start
to a new year
filled with empowerment, defying gravity
and eliminating fear.
Rise up
above my stars
no slave to the pull
cosmic wars.
