Broken
She sits on the cold unforgiving ground,
Ground that has absorbed her bountiful tears,
Tears of a broken heart,
Heart that has seen too much loss,
Loss of family, spouse, innocence,
Innocence of the unaware of the world,
World gone mad from the needs,
Needs that are illogical, depraved,
Depraved in their unethical destructive,
Destructive nature of familial bonds,
Bonds that help communities grow,
Grow in compassion and humanity,
Humanity, that’s our commonality,
Commonality of blood and origin,
Origin in Adam, the first prophet, man,
Man who made a mistake and fixed,
Fixed it for his progeny to prosper,
Prosper In an empty, arid land,
Land where possibilities are endlessly,
Endlessly varied for doing
Doing good or evil.
Evil that makes her ruminate,
Ruminate on her actions that’ve gotten,
Gotten her into her lonesome state,
State of depression, if she’s not careful,
Careful to an optimist working to achieve
Achieve her dreams without failed faith,
Faith that has driven depression into
Into its watery death in the river of her tears.

Vanity’s Curse
From the swirling darkened fog
A wisp of a gorgeous woman
Wrapped haphazardly in blood red smog
Alive in its flow as she moves, an
Astounding beauty, captivatingly attractive,
Sensual, and her sexuality bared for
All to consume closely and become enraptusured
By a fiery beauty hiding an insidious core,
Horrifically rotten with envy,
Hatred, corruption, aggression,
All coalesce within her stare, a visionary
Of destruction, disunity, strife that lend to perfection
Into her spiderweb of infractions
That destroy unity’s equality
And fairness that require absolutions
From a community that venerates all that’s holy.
Wherever there’s equanimity
She presents chaos and superfluous vanity.

2 certificates, 1 of Excellence, and 1 Gold, both honoring women for March is Women’s Month. In some countries, March 21, spring, is Mother’s Day as well, which elevates the celebration. My only regret is that, as we celebrate, other mothers around the world are being raped, tortured, and murdered horrifically.

Portrait of Fear
She stands, erect, head partially
Turned to the painter, her eyes, shadowy,
Glazed with raging emotions that’re bubbly.
Her piercing hazel gaze is turned
Inward, wondering what kind
Of mother she’ll be, as she recalled
Her childhood history, where Impunity,
Disdain both pulverized confidence simply
Because, as a beautiful woman, Her cry
Against aggression and violence
Isn’t seemly, for her opinions aren’t a credence
In a society that idolizing patriarchy’s subservience
To powers of manipulation imposing
A narrative of their choosing
So they can propagate races racing
Against one another for powers,
As they use brainwashed creatures
To consolidate their needs under pressures
Of retaliation if they stray from the narration
They wish foreworded, and in compensation
For hurting others, is money’s abundant domination
Against humanity and its morality.
Her slumberous bedroom gaze is ably
Cognizant that her babe, still tiny in her belly,
Will need great guidance and diplomacy
To navigate a world where genocide is fully
Embraced by the elitists throwing their weight, heavily.

Portait of Regret
Pastels enrobe her, twilight presses her,
As fiery hues caress her face and hands,
As she holds a pink rose to her nose, smells
Its fragrant aroma, as she turns away for fear
And regret grip her aching heart,
As regret, twists her emotions,
Rendering her vulnerability flagrant
And easily susceptible to sensations
Running deep into a heart full
Of compassion, empathy that’s taken
Advantage of, for her convictions cull
People into rightful categories that blacken
Her illusions in kin, friends, and humanity’s
Ability to stand together against
Violence, aggression, destruction, and their powers’
Of being judge and jury to who’s allowed to lives.

Exert of my poem
Knight’s Courage
Rapunzel, oh, Rapunzel,
Why are you hidden
Away in a tower bell
Too high to climb when bidden?
Oh Rapunzel, sing me
A song to entrance my mind
With your harmonious sounds, bidding me
To unfurl my courage, that’s in a bind, …

Feast’s Unity
Crave the jubilation of feasting,
every religious ceremony that binds
lonely souls into a community
even if they are racially, culturally different,
but, all enemity is set aside when celebrating the
revival of humanity’s compassionate understanding.
arrows from Cupid’s bow hits its
target and transforms aggression
into love, friendship, jubilation,
owning that positivity, propagating it, and
never letting pessimism or negativity
spring into the forefront without a care,
And only those ungenerous with their humanity
forgo gatherings that uplift the soul.
jumping into the fray, with all the
overgrown children’s merriment
Yields a time filled with astounding wonder.

Jailed Wine
The wine flute, amber colored,
Glistens in the light twighlight, caged,
Jailed in a bird cage, vainly
Trying not to succomb to the dainty
Elixir of fire that has become
The world’s addiction to overcome
Insecurities, depression, isolation
Amidst the many, as she, elegant sophistication,
Carries the caged wine, daintily
Trying not to spill its contents, precisely
Measured for the utmost enjoyment,
As she crosses the sands of time in bewilderment.

Intertwined
The vanda blue orchid adorns silver,
Long, wavy hair that frames her
Violet hued eyes, button nose,
And glistening rosy lips that pause
With each end note of the violin’s
Hearty tune, that attracts butterflies,
Transparent to royal purple hues,
Flitting around her feet in sublime harmonies
With the birds that soar higher,
As though being strummed better
Through the violin’s strings
That are taut in their place that brings
Wonder and symphony of animal
And human lives intertwined in a primal
Need for survival with a core
Of compassion that’s human and not a bore.
