“Old dogs can’t learn new tricks!” Is how the saying goes. But, problem with applying this to another Human is just that. They’re Human, not a canine probably dreaming about sniffing another dog’s butt while chasing a ball thrown into their favorite puddles of mud. Let’s say if it were true, though. Would you, the...

Perforated
I don't know where to start,So,I'll just be honest.A part of me wants to die!But,God won't let me go through the process.And,I'm not speaking of rebirth,Any kind of change of that sort.I'm talking about a grave,Grim reapers,And,Thy lord... Why?I'm exhausted.Feels like I am too tired to recap my losses.An offset of colors drown me while... Continue Reading →
Embers Of Loneliness
Lost in the confines of confusion.Only question I can think of,Am I human?Remote,Yet,Internally out of control for as long as I can remember.Emotions flickering sporadically above an ember lit by the flames of my temper.And,All it did was grow.Grow until my flesh felt its burning touch,Enough for me to pop and set free an influx...

You Ain’t A Man
"You are not a man..." The response my dad gave my Mother when told of my future plans.Never really there,Just,Plotting on making his next buck inside his trusty ole' cab.Driving throughout New York City,Stressed from all his bidding,For a woman who would rather see me dead than existing,He made sure to take a look at...

The Hustle
Cocaine dreams.138th and cypress Ave.Where I learned my numbers,Colors and alphabets.MS-13s,BloodsCrips,Blues,Red… A bull,I was turned into.By minority tendencies.It's all I saw growing up,Only had I to fend for me…In the streets…Of NYC… Can't be taken out,Deceased,Ceased by the gun,Played by the one,Hollow tip out to pierce an empty soul.How ironic would that be? But,I just... Continue Reading →
Poemz Written In Blood
Thoughts I write up,Like day jobs and strike one.Batter's up,While I'm boxed in,On a search for diamonds without a need to buy one.I'm shining,Glass cups to my lightbulb while I light one.I'm dining alone with many knives,A,Will to surviveWith demons in mind,Who believe I should die!Regardless of all my beliefs in Christ… But,I let bygones...

Droplets (Excerpt from my piece Rain)
"You are my muse, Yet, Because of you? I have everything to lose, And I feel like I lost it all... Slip, Trip and fall was sequential, As I thought I was sanctified, In your arms forever. Yet, Every hug felt clandestine and tethered to an escape planned underneath my nose... My heroin. Can I... Continue Reading →
Do Dreams Exist In A World Full Of Darkness?
Sometimes I look inside of my bathroom mirror,And wonder if I do look like them,The scorn and tyrant,Culprits of my inception… When I gaze upon their actions inside of my mind,I run away and immediately open my eyes… After watching belts and wires being cauterized into my skin continuously,Deprived of a much needed hug and...
