Poetry is
like a car that can take you
places you've never been before.
It tastes
like a dish that looks and smells horrible
but when forced to eat it
you love it
and can't hold yourself back
for seconds.
Poetry smells
like home-cooking
that is so good
you can almost taste it
through your nostrils
and it feels
like a fur.
When felt one way
it is rough and pointy
but when felt the other way
it is smooth and silky.

We're
supposed to have unmovable rights, right?
Then tell me
why does it still seem that we have to fight?
Do you know how many people struggle day and night?
Just so that they can eat, pay bills, live the life
of a normal person.
Will they make it? It isn't for certain.
All this pushing and struggling is leaving them hurting.
My prayers go out to those that are in the struggle
and to their kids who can never stay out of trouble.
Limited survival is here, we need a revival here.
The inner city has once again plagued it's residents hearts with fear.

Someday you'll cry for me
just like I cried for you.
Someday you'll miss me
just like I missed you.
Someday you'll need me
just like I needed you.
Someday you'll love me
but I won't love you.

Love
is red
like roses
your boyfriend gave you.
It sounds like the wind whispering
and tastes like nothing you ever tasted before.
It smells like sunrise
and sunset.
Love can make you feel
like you never felt
before.
Love...

Anger
is black
like night,
like devil's fire,
like black beetle eyes.
It sounds like thunder, screams, ultimate suffering.
It smells like the death of a thousand bodies
and tastes bitter like decay
and rotten fruit.
It feels cold like death, squishy like squash, like hot wet tar.
Anger can kill,
it can control your soul.
It takes us to the edge.
Anger...

Peace
is white like angel wings,
blue like the ocean
yellow like sunshine after a storm.
It sounds like rolling waves, Woodstock, a howling breeze.
Peace smells like a bakery, fresh rain, cut grass
and tastes like warm apple pie with vanilla ice cream and butterscotch
drizzle.
It feels soft like God's pillow.
Peace calms, relaxes, gives you a natural high.
Peace...
