My Pen is my Sword

My Pen is my Sword


Taught to comprehend
Educated in fisticuffs
Watched them run and gun
Some friends dead and gone

Taught to inscribe
mentored to fight
Watched them in gangs, bang
Tried to run with’em couldn’t hang

Wakeup call
Don’t take me for granted
F’m all
The sh*t could get slanted

Taught to articulate
Skilled in verse construction
Watch the reward
My pen is my sword

An Insomniacs Dream

An Insomniacs Dream


Alice where are you?
‘Cause my rabbit hole is deep

The daydreams have entered my night dreams
And I think I’m wide awake

I walk the streets of Morpheus
I wield the saber of desperation

I need to sleep
Eyes are closed, mind is open

I wonder a land, not of wonderment
I look for my shield

Searching for my armor of protection
The alarm blares and I think it's time to rise

I walk the day in a fog
Was I really at rest?

Night dreams have followed me into the day
And I think… Continue

23



23 black doves landed on me plaguing me with sadness
I prayed for sunshine and the butterflies to free me
Full of colors and hues, full of strength and reassurance
Death stood before me his scythe splitting clouds into despair
Not allowing me to see colors not even the grays

64 years… Continue

In a world of technology I take pen in hand
To write the words I feel
My symphonies, soliloquies, Epitaphs, nightmares & dreams

MS Word won't say what my hand feels
The keyboard can't type my heart, it fails me
There's no screen big enough for this brain

Tonight can't be electronic soul, automatic pilot,
My pain, my passion, my life is in pencil
With pen in hand I have to flush it out

I write
I dream
I think
I strain

iBard

In a world of text and emails, I take paper in hand
To w… Continue

Treat yourself to a good book that’s fun to chat about. Buy Plain as Sand. In it you will find:

Her Power
Bear witness to the power
Of a woman's form and mind,
Often loving and uplifting,
Sometimes harmful and unkind.

Swaying hips...

Can a Man Have a Drink
Don’t nag me while I drink.
I’m trying to change my mood.
I don’t want your company,
Don’t need your help, sex, water or food…


So Tired
I am so tired of hoping and caring,
Of loving and leaving and letting them go,
Of laughing, the crying,
Of singing, then sighing,
Of wondering how much of my heart I should show...

…and many more great poems.

To order Plain as Sand go to www.penaura.com. You may pay online or print out and mail the order form to Penaura Publishing Company, P.O. Box 5345, Rockville, Maryland 20848-5345. Enter the following coupon to get a 30% discount: 1248481691.
