Dream Hard

who tries to capture the wind?

it comes and it goes as it pleases. 

rather

lean in to its touch,

fall in to its kiss,

whether it be gentle or passionate.

cherish the moment(s),

l i v e  i n  t h e m

f e e l  i n  t h e m

l o v e  i n  t h e m

if only for a second,

for they are as fleeting

as the wind itself.


I stunt on these niggas

intellectual

never front for no figures

sapiosexual

who loves a good figure

light brown skin

match my dark brown liquor

I lick her; I love her. I kiss her;

I light my best with her

And when she’s high enough

She starts to paint her perfect picture

Just so happens that

I’m in it

With her

in her

She drops some jewels in my ear

as we journey to her center.

Where it’s

cooler than your hottest summer

warmer than your coldest winter

Paradise is quite nice to be honest nigga

Foreign flicks

exotic spliffs

main characters of brown-er tint

plot twists and her hips.

Poems from passion-nets

She cast from her lips 

to my neck to my chest

to my fingertips

where my pen is

writing this along her walls

contrary to the song

it will never fall

my my my

Kemetic queen

my nubian baby doll

I saw you in a dream

And I decided I would dream hard…


Did I ever cross your mind?

Make me understand

Bc all I have is time

Put me in your plans 

You said I always cross the line

Baby, I’m a man

I heard you tried them other niggas

they can’t love like I can

You say I’m always on the run

I told you come with 

And we could run to the sun

Be on our n.e.r.d. shit

But you were stuck in your cool

That absurd shit

And it was worthless 

Cuz them cool people never scratched your surface

‘But we were urban intellects

Musing on music, books, and the internet

And it was heaven whenever we entered sex

Because we never left, unless

Breakfast came to interject.

Remember those good times? 


I found sex personified as a person

I’ve met plenty of people

But none as pure with such potential

I’ve pushed past pulchritude 

B/c I preyed on her mental

B/c I prayed for her mental

Where I found peace and pleasure

Rather than the pangs that pierced

me in the past

I pushed powerful pros to paper 

to make it last 

I pushed powerful pros to paper 

to make her crash

to make her crash 

to make her crash


My Digression

Lyrical lust leaves lonely ones satisfied

As my verbs thrust and nouns caress her thighs

Similes kissing the neck of her

I found her spot. I got her locked, verbally sexing her.

My coital conjunctions corrupt her functions

Because I predicated my poetry to play on her potential.

Just think, with a pencil I can provide for her mental

A sensual place to get in to.

And arouse her intellect with my erotic dialect,

This will be a night we’ll never forget.

As I undress her stanza by stanza,

This here is lyrical lust,

Next time I’ll romance her.


Living to exist or living to make an impact? Living in a lie or was she living in the exact?

She always made time for her crazy fuckin ex that

Never really cared he was always just there

@the write right times when

Her confidence was spent

And she was vulnerable to the world

And this nigga cashed in

Like selling her dreams for ninety nine cent

and I said that her confidence was spent

But She wondered where it went

Well, We knew it all along

Us nerds that observe the “cool people’s” goings on

We heard then saw all of him doing wrong

And then cursed @ her for her going along

Cuz she never stopped to think

“He’s never here when I need him.

And it seems I always need him.

But I dont really need him,

cuz without him I have freedom.

He’s restricting and demanding.

And in this pool of love

I am the only one standing.

And he comes up for air just to say my name, ‘Brandy?’

So he can keep me on the hook

Stole my heart up his sleeve

But I am feeling like the crook.

Like if I up and just leave

then his feelings would be shook.

So much time we put in

I resided in his skin

He said he lived for my kiss…”

And that is where she missed.

Tragic love opera

With lumps in our throat we quote this soap opera

She was lost in his cool

And we were always on the outside

Wanting to feel it too

All the hurt and the pain

just to feel the cool…


You’re always yearning for what doesn’t really shine, but has a dull glow. You are always more lack than lust. But you loved to lust the lack there of, and it never was the overall entity. Rather, it was the moments in between here and the next smile. Her your smile never really shines; it glows below eyes that are sharp as knives Billy Mays sold. And they blinked on my soul…  


  • There are many times
  • in crevices of your mind
  • where thoughts of me reside
  • because in my mind
  • I have that place for you
  • Despite all the bullshit
  • i know that it is filled
  • with love smiles and thrills
  • because that part of us was true
  • And real, so the fake falls
  • like love in the gutter
  • where the rest of our excess flutters
  • because too much of anything
  • is never god for you, or us
  • Excess like-sex and fights-mostly @ night
  • so we could never see the details
  • like how your insults cut me so well
  • but i only bleed now that you’re gone
  • or was it the scar on your arm?
  • the beauty mark on your palm?
the little things invade my memory of us
