IN THE MEANTIME…

Sonnet 1
Fuel to my fire
I’m your Bard
I’m your Poet
Even through the fire,
…
You are my love
with whom I’m in love
My love who I love
you are poetry to me,
We are coals
We are embers
We are One,
We are members entwined
since the womb of our soil,
…
I yearn for your soul
For the churning
as it burns up against the sun
All ears who hear
Truth is in our roots
Much it do what it do
from here to Timbuktu
I’m zipping up my boots
What about you?
…
Sonnet 2
Pay no mind to salt less seers
They don’t see us
When they school ya
They fool ya
They’re users who’ve whored us
No care for us
These hoarders never adored us,
Same ole same ole
Old wine skins
For themselves not for us
They bore us,
…
Don’t let them rule ya
Dry your eyes my peers
Fill your heart with song
Stay steady stay cool
All praises to the One
Let Yah rule,
Cooler than cool
Nice n’ spicy
We flipped the script
We pool our sauces
within our borders
No fear no
From a mountain high
Me I saw this,
The Payback –
I owe you nothing
You owe me something
700 years of misery
Plus all that glittery,
…
Sonnet 3
Foolish to mistake
my kindness for weakness
Just cos I love a hug
But when we switcheroo
the things we do
What rhymes with that
and sleekest of cats
…
In the meantime
Right where you are
Go be a learning
Not his or her story
No more lies
but our true story,
A journey to your past
Navigate with good intentions
The prize before your eyes
is worth the weight in glory,
…
Ari-Ari
I’m your Bard
I’m your Poet
You are my love who I love,
A new age wine
You are poetry to me…
