#364 Oblivious


It’s not what you say
it’s what you don’t say
it’s not what you do
it’s what you don’t do
no one can see it
there are no scars
not visible to the eye
I want to stand up to you
but every bone in my body
says ‘No!’ this wouldn’t do
you have never hit me
well not physically
but the wounds they are deep
you make me question
what I do, what I think, what  I eat
I second guess everything
in short I am a nervous wreck
you are oblivious

oblivious of your effect

A little tension

#363 A journey

A journey to propel you through space and time
a joyous beat on a rhythmic rhyme
a luscious fusion of body sweat and smell
a giddy feeling like a cocktail
of booze gone straight to your head
heady heights flashing strobing pulsating lights
an entanglement of arms and legs
strewn across tables chairs and beds
a meeting of bodies and minds
monotony monogamy one at a  time
sweat mixes on your brows
light sound action wow!
a tingling sensations from head to toes
lips, tips, ear lobes and nose

Pelvic thrusting  of a deeper vibe
ancestral gyrating from that African tribe
beating of skins to a melodic beat
shooting of arrows fingertips to feet
stroking stroaming palms and tips
fulfilment in that forbidden fruit
in their fullness of lips
a hypnotic pendulum swinging left to right
a falling star in the dimming lights
as the shadows of lust haunts the crevices of your mind
and jaunts feverishly  to another space and time





The perfect crime

#362 The perfect crime

Did I tell you he was perfect
he was perfectly mine
I would bore my friends
with the details
of his perfect spirit body and mind
endlessly  was how I went on
describing this guy of mine
the way he walked
the way he spoke
How fortunate I was to make such a find
I would recall the first time I saw him
at the post office
not the sort of romantic setting anyone had in mind
I would speak of the conversations
we shared on that telephone line
I would confide in him
tell him everything
my deepest secrets
my smallest lies
I would lay in his arms
and wish that time would stand still
time would move so quickly on
in the fast forward video caption sort of way
we say we would wait for that day
when time would stand still
presently time just rushed on by
they say time flies when you are having fun
we wished time would stop flying
so we could in you this one

Did I tell you were perfect?
you were perfectly mine
how was I to know what you were doing
was committing the perfect crime
first you stole my heart
then you ###!! with my mind
perfectly you had committed the perfect crime
no witnesses, no reason, no logic could I find
the forensic team rushed to the scene
they dusted, they searched
the devastation those lies
nothing could they do to link you
to the scene of this crime
now along with my heart
I believe I am losing my mind
how was I to know
you had the perfect alibi
the perfect wife and perfect little child
perfectly, perfectly I would wait, wait wait my time
perfectly, perfectly revenge would be mine

#361 Black box

Black African
Black British
Black Caribbean
Black mixed
Black other
Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Black box
I will not tick that box
I will not be catogerised
I will not be catologued
I will not be filed away and denied
I will not cower under the chains
that you  have over me
I will, I will, I will be free

I have not be programmed
I cannot be debugged
I have slipped through the matrix
I stand before you definitely

I know where I am going
I know where I am from
I have had it with singing
all those slave songs

I will not be a singer
no running for me  

I will not stand behind the counter
and say “Do you want fries with that please?”

I have not come to march
freedom is too difficult to achieve

I am that loose cannon
I am all your nightmare dreams
I am that face that you see
when you wake with a scream
I look in the mirror I know what I see
racism, imprisonment no justice here for me

I will be going to the university
to collect many degrees
despite the fact my social etiquette
has it stacked against me

I am not poor
I am broke
these are my words
carefully chosen
I have spoke
