Sanctuary of My Mind

Poetry and Prose will take you away, you'll be drifting between darkness and eternal moonlight...savage passion and reasonable love will sing their songs...flickers of happiness,embers of sadness...all you need to forget time is still ticking. (written by a reader)

Spring Rain


Look at you,
You are lovely in my eyes
Spring blooms between your thighs
Raindrops of pleasure nestled there
Waiting for my tongue
To release its warmth
A storm is fast approaching
The only shelter I will need
Is the umbrella of your love
Keeping me safe until this rain subsides.

Musings 4-30-06

I’ve been watching a lot of golf over the past few years mainly because of Tiger Woods, and I quite enjoy the peacefulness of the sport. It’s like a long stroll in the park and enjoying the day. I wonder why the women can wear shorts and the men always wear pants, but I guess I would rather watch Michelle Wie’s legs than that of Tiger Woods. Some of the women wear skirts also which isn’t really a good idea especially when they have to bend down over a putt to get a good read. The camera zooms in for a close up, and they not only have to worry about getting a good read on the putt, but also have to make sure that their delicates aren’t showing for all the world to see. You would think the camera would zoom away further, but the camera’s eyes stays, leers. It must be a man behind the camera. A woman would know better, but heh, I’m not complaining.

Coffee & Poetry



Early morning coffee and poetry
Stimulates the senses
Arouses my intellect
Fevered passion burns in my soul
As I drink your words
Each one written as if for me
It’s the heart of a lover, daydreaming
The possibilities of all life’s beauty
Over a cup of early morning coffee and poetry.

Things I Want for You



I want to slip inside of you quiet like night
Fill you up like sunshine filling a darkened room
I want to make you happy like a baby
When she first discovers how to walk
That feeling of complete freedom
I want to be the man who never lets you down
The one person in your life you can always depend on
There are things I may never know
Things I may never understand
About what it is to be a woman
But, my honest intent
Is to always have an open mind
And be willing to listen
Even without knowing the answers.
These are some of the things I want for you.

Warm Mouth



Your mouth is warm, inviting
Wet like a dream I had of you last night
Inside surrounded by white walls I’m easily captured
Sucked into a river of hot saliva I relinquish control
In this world of the unknown
I’m no longer sure of who or what I am
Darkness wraps itself around me and I quiver
All my senses are drained and I lay there weakened
For a moment, paralyzed, unable to move
I look to you for all the answers
You reach for me again
It will be sometime before I regain my strength
For now, I will rest, soft in my sleep.

Musings 4-29-06

Woke up about 1pm and I’m unaware of where I am that’s how tired I am. My mind struggles to associate this place, but it draws a blank. I’m like what the fuck, mind, do your job-WORK. Slowly the darkness turns into recognition and I recognize where I am. Sanctuary of my bed and warm drool on my pillow makes it complete. Seems impossible but I might have to conduct a survey with guys. It never fails that when we first wake up an erection is in place as if it was just waiting for you to get the fuck up like an anxious child waiting for mommy and daddy to wake up on a Sunday morning to make breakfast. I know I don’t dream about sex every night, but that doesn’t stop my boy, erection from doing his own thing by branching off in his own thoughts of fantastical fantasies. The penis and the mind usually work in unison, but there are those rare moments when he breaks free like a dog being pulled by his master down the street. Ever seen one of those HUGE ass dogs pulling a scrawny ass man/woman to do their own thing? It’s pitiful.

Touch of a Woman

A simple touch can make you believe again
Make even a sinner want to be saved
The touch of a woman has that divine power
To make a man feel that he can be better
Than he truly has the right to dream
When she is at his side
He truly believes in that moment
That he can walk on water
Defy the laws of gravity
His woman gives him the strength to hope
That the best of him is yet to come.

Faith Restored


My touch will make you blush
Your hairs will stand on end
In unison of appreciation for faith restored
For passion once unrequited
In my hands your reservoir will be filled
Your smile awaits my presence
Invite me into your sanctuary of pleasure
Reserved for those who appreciate the true beauty
Of all that a woman has to offer.

I've been listening to this new guy, James Blunt www.jamesblunt.com. Well, he's not really new but new to the US audience. His fucking songs are so depressing and full of self-pity, that after listening to him you want to fucking cry. If you don't want to cry you wish you could and indulge in his self-pity. Two of his songs are Goodbye My Lover and You're Beautiful. Saw him on O (Oprah) about a month ago, and he was so unassuming and self-depricating. That's how I wish most celebrities were. It endears you to them even more. It makes you feel, well, this person has so much talent and yet they're not full of shit, how cool. Let me now go spend my money on this cool, unassuming person. That's good PR right there instead of being a fucking prick/cunt. And as I speak of music and stuff, a friend made the obvious comment to me that why does it seem like the most talented creative people have to be the most tortured: Marvin Gaye, Jim Morrison, Picasso, Michael Jackson ( Michael is a tortured fuck). It's like God said, well, I gave you all this talent so I have to toss in some bad with it, here you go, take some heartwrenching torment to go. How I would love to be a thought in the room when some of the greats came up with their masterpieces just to watch the entire process take place..wow. Talk about an adrenaline rush...ya.

Divided Soul (ramblings)

At what point in your life do you come to the realization that you need a change? That the path of your life is wrong, and there's more in store for you than what you're doing right now? A change surely is in order because all the signs are posted for death. Not a physical death, but a mental death which is far worse. Physical death is quick and your heart/mind isn't overwhelmed daily with life questions. Mental death is slow, erosion of the human psyche leaving battered and wearied. I wonder daily how many people are burdened with thoughts of being overwhelmed and backed into a corner where there is no light. I've been in that corner before when your soul is divided and it all seems pointless. You think that no one else could possibly be feeling this excruciating pain you're enduring, and if they were what possible reason would God (we always blame God) easier to blame him than blame yourself for your shortcomings. In those times the simplest things work to snap you out of that melancholy for me it was maybe reading a good book, seeing a movie, writing, taking a solitary walk in Central Park in the middle of winter-nothing beats that. And then, without even realizing it, the doldrums had passed and I was back on even ground-for now. So it goes. ( I like saying that) So it goes.

Easy Rapport


We greet each other with an easy rapport
The way people do who've known each other for years
Conversation is easy free flowing
With no hesitations or self-consciousness
We ease into each other's company
Like a body comfortable in a pair of well worn jeans
Or a favorite shirt your body knows
The familiarity of it brings a certain warmth
That never leaves me wanting more
How much more could I need than you?

Sentimental




I miss you are simple words which leave an indelible mark
To the heart that hears these sentiments
Nothing else needs to be said
Temporarily, all seems right with the world
And all your fears are calmed
There’s a brisk breeze blowing and soon the calm will pass
Words can only scratch the surface to heal your pain
Just an aspirin to heal what ails your lonesome heart
In the belly of unhappiness frustration is born
Knowing what your woman needs
Is to be found by listening to the words not said
Listen to the quiet and you will hear her speak
You will find the answers were always there
Just waiting for you to find them.

Waves of Passion

Small doses of passion
Just enough to get you tipsy
Not enough to get you drunk
I want you cognizant
When you drink from my well of influence
I want you to feel the full impact of my will
As we ride this wave of these tumultuous waters
You drown me in your depth
My lungs are filled with everything you
The only air I will breath is yours
You can take my life if you want.

Culture of Useless Celebrity Whores

Everyone deserves their15 minutes of Andy Warhol fame, but MY GOD do we deserve to be force fed with these no talent celebrity whores everyday of our fucking lives who have absolutely no talent, and for the life of me I don’t see why so much time is spent on their every fucking move. Are our lives so useless and pathetic that we need to make ourselves feel better by watching these celebrity whores primp and preen their useless existence and no talent asses in front of us daily? I could name a litany of these male and females whores who daily beg us to love me, look at me, see how beautiful and vapid I am-MY GOD. The media should target one useless celebrity a week and declare it to be “Because you’re untalented-no coverage for you week” those celebrities would lose their fucking minds. See how quickly they shut the fuck up about being hounded by the press. After that week of being unimportant in this cultural malaise their ego might be put in check. I know that there are the upper echelon celebrities, “ the human Gods of our society” that are virtually hounded night and day, and for them I have sympathy. The no-talented hacks, well, you should be happy that you haven’t been discovered as being a no talent celebrity, which is probably an oxymoron. I remember Oprah asked this so called “celebrity” what are you famous for? GREAT FUCKING QUESTION MISS OPRAH. This “celebrity” looked stunned for a moment as if the question didn’t make any sense. What is YOUR talent, Miss Oprah asks her? Ha!! I thought to myself finally someone asks one of these useless vapid celebrities for their resume. Well, Miss Celebrity says, my daddy is famous and I guess I know famous people. EUREKA!!! America’s light bulbs should have gone off and begin wondering why we worship at the altar of these hacks. But, sadly no. The hacks are still out there and multiplying like germs everyday. So it goes according to my boy, Kurt Vonnegut.

Beautiful Mind (Yours and Mine)

The mind wanders
Flying on its own wings
In search of its own peace
Far beyond the wispy clouds
Out of sight of human perception
You see the physical being
But you don’t see me
I live in a place, untouched
By the world around
The proverbial mind in a bubble
The boy who never grew up
Still dreaming of a world without limits
It’s a beautiful mind that allows you to fly
To that sacred place where your thoughts
Are as free as the wind blowing its own way.

Dreams of a Father

I see in you remnants of my soul
Scattered all over your face
And in your words I hear my voice
The voice of youth struggling to be heard
You don’t know who you are yet
Stumbling along the way trying to find
That elusive balance between youth and responsibility
My instinct is to always help and be your father
Time to step back and hope the lessons taught
Somehow have taken root and from its earth
A beautiful flower will bloom to spread joy.

No Dreams Deferred

Where is the light in your eyes my dear child?
You're too young to be so angry
There should be no dreams deferred
There are no excuses to be heard
Blessed you are to be living in the days
When the color of your skin doesn't curtail your dreams
Your complaints would make your elders laugh
Shake their heads in bemusement at your so called angst
You run around using words not knowing what they truly mean
Call an old black man a "nigga" and look in his eyes
Living in them is the history of the true struggle
You pay homage to them, black men and women
By being enslaved in the mentality
They fought so hard to break free from
There should be no dreams deferred on your watch
When all your dreams are as close as the memories of a better future
Dreamed by your forefathers not so long ago
There should be no dreams deferred-not on your watch.

Powerful Life Moments

As something is happening as you're living in the moment of it, the powerful vacuum of its life force do you know in that instant that a lifelong memory is being lived? Do you allow yourself the space to step back and document with your heart and mind the event taking place so a year from now time will afford you more clarity t0 appreciate the magnitude of that moment? These moments don't come along too often and if you blink, you might just miss it. True moments have auras (yes, moments do have auras) and you can feel its presence it can be quite overwhelming as it tries to sweep you away in its magnitude. When was your last moment? As you think about it now can you recollect the smallest details with great accuracy because you allowed yourself the freedom to live in the moment and enjoy it?

Belief

There is something to be said
About believing in yourself
An unwavering faith that your life vision can't be altered
Even when the naysayers who 'know better'
Somehow know what's best for your future
Without even knowing who you are
Your passions, your dreams, the hopes no else can see
They pass judgement on you with a dismissive hand
As if your life has no relevance beyond your social status
Your mere existence is but an annoyance to them
None of this should ever truly matter
If you follow the footsteps of your heart
The path you take will never let you down.

Lunch at Wendy's

Went to Wendy's for lunch today, and the cashier gave me back too much change, $2 or something. By the time I realized it I was almost out the door so I didn't really want to go back inside so I gave it to this homeless guy begging for his dinner outside. I figure it this way, I'm not profiting and the money is going to a good cause. My own personal "Feed the World" or something like that. Anyway, the universe is balanced and I'm off the hook for ripping off a poor Wendy's clerk who will probably get her ass chewed off by her supervisor.

All State Commercials

I love those All State commercials with my boy, Dennis Haysbert, former president on the best show of all time, 24. He has that commanding voice whch demands your attention when you hear it, reminiscent of James Earl Jones. If Dennis says to you in that voice, "Take those panties off-NOW". What are you gonna say, no? The voice commands, so it is said, so shall it be. The intangible of those commercials also is that having a black man as the voice of your brand gives the company the appearance of caring for the common man, even if they don't, the perception that they can do is more than half the battle. "All State cares, that's all we're saying."
That's saying quite alot.

A Good Woman


A Good Woman

Tonight, I don’t want to be lonely
If for one night let me be loved
My heart is filled with the expectancy
Of a welcome home hug
How was your day, dear
An embrace to melt away the day’s stress
A smile to remind me of how I’m truly blessed
I don’t have to hit the lottery
Don’t have to go bling crazy
All my heart desires is the love of a good woman
Waiting to welcome me home.

Panties-Who Needs Them

I"m surprised that Victoria Secrets hasn't come up with a way to market their shopping bags for sale. Women use them to put their lunches, hold their books and other miscellaneous things. It just seems like a classy way to carry around your stuff and the other benefit is you associate women with wearing the underwear when you see the bag, and you immedietely imagine what underwear they're wearing. The bags are basically free advertising for VC not that they need it. God, if women revolted and decided to stop wearing underwear the way God intended it, VC would go out of business in a heartbeat. There are somethings we just don't need, and panties I"m sure most men would agree is one of them.

Let the Fire Rage

Let the Fire Rage

Oh lover of my heart and mind
You own my body no questions asked
With every kiss seared on my lips
The sweetness of passion burns me without heal
Just so you know the thought of you touching me
Starts an uncontainable fire within
My flesh burns from my thoughts
Your fingers barely touch my skin
I find myself asking for your love
My ego is such, I will beg if I must
The fire of you consumes me without rain
Let the fire rage until my screams are barely a whisper.

Allowances















Allowances

Allow me if you can
The pleasure of your company
When you’re around
The beauty of your spirit
Makes all of us want to be better
To disappoint you in anyway
Would leave me in a state of depression
That could last for days on end
To make you happy, to see you smile
Well, it makes everything worthwhile.
