Truth
Should I give them up my pockmarked truths? (Each scar-shamed one.) Are they deemed too blunt and ugly, now? (Although hard-won.) As if uneartheddirt-bound like postholes underabandoned ancient sites which only speak to usin ash. In charcoal’s black. From lives undone. By sufferingsthat came on fast. Remorselessly unjust. And where (however muchitsContinue reading “Truth”
I roam the world nude, a poem
First to go was my family, then some friends and associates. Left the city of my birth, then the city of my childhood. Old allegiances to country had go, because my country had no allegiances to Me.

Horses a No, no?
A white guy on the bus complained about policemen forbidden to use horses. I asked, “and what about whips?” The white guy shut up. Wondered where the attack dogs and water canons were. They still have rubber bullets and knees on necks.
I was raised in a Cage, a poem
The walls were most bare during the rare prey seasons and leaves long disintegrated. Outside my Cage, the world was false and gilded. I’m free now, but there Is no one to mate With because I’m too rare: Bisexual, non-Abrahamian, Spiritually sexual Black guy…. Seeks sexually needy Sex dreamer and Wiccan, either sex can apply….Continue reading “I was raised in a Cage, a poem”
Right to Life….
White people regularly avoid me, Ignoring my greetings, some with open malice. If I’d feelings left in my bleeding heart I would feel the pain of their hatred. So do I wish them dead? I say, ‘No’. Because the universe is seemingly void of life, and our planet the only home for life. But theContinue reading “Right to Life….”
