Gospel Mercenary

By: KB © 10.30.14

Is it mission or mercenary?

You can’t tell me that God is not for me

Are you saying what you saying out of care?

Or do you have me caught in your cross-hairs?

I’m just asking if you have the gospel to impart.

Or you’re just aiming for the heart?

Are you seeking to enlighten me?

or to preach a word of misery

Tell me how many souls have you won

When you preach behind a hateful gun?

Good Poetry Rhymes – a night at a slam

By: KB ©10.13.14

I was introduced

And I started my little spiel

I was really full of myself

Making the audience feel

I dig the beat and tempo of a good rhyming poem

The lilt, the words, the way it flows

I often break into song….

Give me a word! Anybody! And I will make it dance

ORANGE !!!

Screw you

Earthly Heaven

By: KB 9.5.14

I know of a spiritual heaven

I was told about it since I was able to hear

But did you know there is an Earthly heaven

That God saw fit to provide

It’s in the form of lifelong love

Deep and expansive, wide

He clearly stated that it’s not good for man to be alone

So he paired each heart with a mate to make a happy home

He also said blessed is the man who finds a wife

Making provision for a happy life

So, please shine light on my Master’s plan

So I can enjoy my remaining years walking hand in hand

Birthed

By kb 8.15.14

Storms gather just beneath my brow

And my eyes produced the torrential rains

The downpour reached my heart

And helped to soothe the pains

The hurt and pain from all the years

Were gently washed away

With you I am born again

Birthed this very day

The labor began when I gazed into your eyes

The storm clouds parted, the sun shone bright and I could see clear skies

You took my hand with tenderness

Touch that erased all fear

A healing in all of this

A process oh so dear

Exhaustipated

By: KB © 10.19.14

up late

(too tired to really give a shit)

up late

waiting for an idea to come

until then I'll just sit

I feel my eyelids grow heavy

I stay up late

sit and wait

birthing and nursing an idea

up late

my head begins to bob

I wouldn't trade the creative process

poetry is my job

Definition Of A Kiss

By KB: 8.19.14

A kiss can best be described as the lips of two people meeting…

But when there’s passion and physical connection

It transforms into two souls greeting

Greeting in heart, body and mind

Two souls that capture a magical bliss

I dig the second definition of a kiss

Boldly

By kb 8.14.14

Love is what created the universe

Love is the reason we are here

Love holds the infinite together

Love is what we want but yet we fear

Giving our anything to another

Exposing our vulnerabilities

Will they see me any different?

or will they draw close to me

God so loved the world

That He gave His only Son

Created us for company

So, I’m asking are you the one

My rib, my partner, my counterpart

To have and to hold

Asking you to be all that if I may be so bold

A Walk In The Sun

by KB 8.10.14

You are a walk in the sun

arms that hold and warm me

hope in a love that's begun

blooms that reach thee

beauty unfolds, stories untold

colors that erupt in the rays

turning my darkness to days

You are a walk in the sun

The Boss

By: kb 6.17.14

Giving direction like a drill sergeant

Got my attention

Very specific

Hanging me in suspension

While giving very direct instruction

I see you naked in vulnerability

All that there is sexy as hell to me

Young Brother

BY: KB  7/31/18

Young brother

I want you to know that I respect you

There are far too many old folks harpin’ on

What you should say, what you should be and what you should do

I’m not blind

I got mad love and respect for your determination and your grind

I feel you young brother

I see how much you care

Helping your mother,

Doing your share

It’s amazing to me how such a young brother

Searches his heart and assumes responsibilities

Albeit not always perfectly

Sometimes causing worry

But you try

In my book

Young brother you have to know

That makes you

One helluva guy!

Simpin’

By : KB 1.27.13

Invisible and transparent until you need

Like a simp he comes running…knight on white steed

To ply the wallet, you say thanks

Always looking past him

looking for the next best thing, the next granted deed

 He embraces the hollow gratitude when in his mind he’s saying

“Bitch your attitude stanks!”

Autocorrect

BY:KB  8.5.18

Throw my damn phone

Yes, I’m fissin’ to

That bitch autocorrect

is saying things I didn’t Nintendo

I’ so mad

I just can’t tell ya

Autocorrect is my worst enema

If that’s not bad enough

I’m starting to really hate my phone

Not only am I constantly be rewritten

The return texts have a funky tone

Like, I can’t talk right now I’m at work

“I’ll knock you up” when I’m done

OH SNAP!!!

Hit you up!

All the damn embarrassment

The person on the other end is laughing hard

Like they don’t know what I meant

Then I have to apologize

But I know what text I sent

Throw my phone

Yes, I’m fissin’ to

I can’t stop apologizing for crazy texts

If I don’t have it

It will fix the problem

I don’t have to take this shit!!!

Cheap Toilet Paper Doth Mock Me

By: KB © 10.30.14

Cheap toilet paper doth mock me

A jester on a roll

I spin and tear from the roll

I cannot seem to grab a sheet that’s whole

Cheap toilet paper doth mock me

I must be content to render to my a** confetti

I roll and roll tearing away

It breaks off into 1 ply

I’m sitting so long

I swear I can hear my a** sigh

I’m sitting in the stall of discontent

If I stay here any longer they’ll charge my a** rent

Cheap toilet paper doth mock me

Remember the toilet paper commercial of the past?

“It’s too good to be toilet tissue”

I need some of that stuff to resolve this issue

Gimme some of that stuff to wipe my a**

Left/ breakup / divorce

By KB 2.26.2013

Crumpled paper blowing like tumbleweed

Voices echoes in the hall

Discarded moving boxes and bubble wrap

Your voice and laughter just a faint ghost call

Memories linger waiting to die

You left with no goodbye at all.

Yo, Can I Holla?

By ©kb 2005

I mean like damn girl

I gotta know where you going and can I go?

I mean damn girl I’ve been watchin’ you and I like yo’ flow….

I mean damn girl

Can I walk with you

I ain’t like the other fools who try to talk to you.

See, they just talking crazy tryin’ to get you in bed…

I’m the type of person that wants to get in yo head and make mental love..

Love on a real that comes from above

Droppin’ word and rhymes that touch your soul

Cause I’m the type person that wants you to know

 that I seek love for a long term goal

I mean damn girl

Sanctified

By kb ©  2005

I’m into you,

no not just for the day

I’m not the type of individual to hit the sheets and play

I’m into you,

‘cause if we’re here….you’re part of my DNA

No, don’t get me  wrong

I like my fun, but I ain’t one to just hit and run

Nope, that just ain’t me

‘cause if we make it to the sheets

I’m talkin’ longevity.

I know I’m special

And sex is a gift from up above

So who am I to question God about this thing called love

I am designed in his image

Scripture says, fearlessly, wondrously made

I’m into you long term….because a child of God just doesn’t get laid

The Sweetest Kiss

By kb ©2005

A singer stated that the sweetest kiss she’s ever known

Was a kiss on her collar bone

Whoever wrote that was dead wrong

The sweetest kiss that I’ve ever known

Is one that’s planted on a pleasure zone

Reciprocated with a delicate moan

Parting wings and diving in

placing my lips on that soft skin

sweet taste of love I drink you in

stroking caressing

diving deep

I kiss I touch to reach that peak

Loves moisture from an internal sea

raging waters

passions rip tides

just for me

The sweetest kiss that I’ve ever known

Is one that’s planted on a pleasure zone

Reciprocated with a delicate moan

In My Dream

By kb ©2005

You come 2 me inside my head

For now this is better than any bed

Living in my fantasy

Because here I know you belong 2 me

Sexual desire, virtual reality

Making love completely free

Partial commitments, emotional baggage gone

Passion played out , sing love’s sweet song

Bedtime Prayer

BY: KB   4.28.16

You mentally embrace me and a hundred stars fill the night
Every time you share your thoughts
I feel my heart take flight
your heart, soul and spirit are truly a rare find

I thank the lord for all you give (if only in my mind)...

I offer up these words to God to show how much I care

words of love, caring and concern.....my hearts silent prayer..
