this is not poetry
this is a warning.
a map made of scars.
a funeral where the coffin
is still breathing.

Sassy, limber
tacticians,
Jellyfish dance
Trailing trembling
tentacles
sting,
worship
the lunar obelisk,
casting a silver shadow
beware its
gliding cinnabar

Wake-Up

I wake seeking—
for light, for direction
for something spoken
across a ledge or stoop
onto today, that will hold.

NTOZAKE SHANGE gave us masterpiece/instant classic with for colored girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf. First time I met this work I was blown away that she took about 20 poems and made a play/choreopoem. Read it, watch it, stage it. #NationalPoetryMonth

Each sip stains the dream in deeper hues, violet and silver, the color of things we almost remember but can’t quite hold.
By the time we wake, the taste of you is all that remains, sweet and unbearably far away.

never pick fight with a poet
before you know it, they’ll
embarrass you with epithets
attack you with alliterations
mock you with metaphors
annoy you with analogies
scorch you with symbolism
lance you with literary devices
dragging every defense down
you won’t last another round

"Monday blues, eyes on you. #photography
A vibrant urban scene featuring Geno's Steaks, an iconic cheesesteak restaurant in Philadelphia. The building showcases bold signage with \"GENO'S STEAKS\" in large red letters and a striking display of flames with the phrase \"The Best.\" A photograph of a cheesesteak crowns the storefront. The street is lively with parked cars and a cyclist on a red bicycle crossing at a marked intersection near a sign for 'Latona St.' The setting captures the bustling energy and character of the neighborhood, spotlighting this local landmark. A row of modern brick townhouses stands tall under a clear sky, each showcasing large windows framed by clean lines and rectangular shapes. Some windows are adorned with curtains, adding a personal touch, while a single window displays the silhouette of a plant, hinting at life within. A street lamp and sign in the foreground ground the scene in an urban setting. The use of brick as the primary material highlights a timeless approach to residential architecture, blending contemporary design with tradition. The image captures a vibrant urban landscape featuring three tall, rectangular buildings with a grid-like facade, standing side by side. Against a clear blue sky, their distinct modern design contrasts with the busy street below. The foreground shows a dynamic scene of construction equipment, a pink delivery van, a black pickup truck, and several parked cars. Traffic cones and signs hint at ongoing development, while a nearby building with a green dome adds a unique architectural touch to the area. A striking mural adorns the side of a brick building, featuring two large, intricately detailed eyes framed by vivid blue-green makeup and long lashes. Below the mural, a sign for 'Spread Bagelry' promotes a Montreal-style wood oven bagel shop. Street signs in the foreground include 'No Turn on Red' and 'Don't Block The Box,' adding urban context to the scene. The mural is the focal point, blending artistic expression with the everyday vibrancy of city life.

In a daze of hazy phrases,
remembering just a few-
There was once smiling dances,
In pictures of you-
No actual magic moments,
only haunted hallowed shelves-
Loves lustre gone rusted,
nostalgia left in the dark.

One must sculpt themselves
through experience and trials.
Ultimate journey,
withstanding tribulations,
cultivate serenity.
