I gather up
each sound
you left behind
and stretch them
on our bed.
each nite
I breathe you
and become high.

sleeping in my eyes,
that dream I had as a child,
I’ll kiss it someday
Of course, I prompted him by suggesting a poem entitled “Humans of New York:”
those zombies are masked
konkrete jungle burns
I like to dabble
in such varied colorseyes are blinding
when stares go for days
unbecoming dreamers
are likely to lose it when trains run lateso it is to ramble
and forget our friend time
startled over letting go
madness in the big city
“Brother to the Night (A Blues for Nina)” Written by Reginald Gibson, Performed by Larenz Tate
“She does not know
Her beauty,
She thinks her brown body
Has no glory.
If she could dance
Naked,
Under palm trees
And see her image in the river
She would know.
But there are no palm trees
On the street,
And dishwater gives back no images.”
Nina Simone
(In my sleep I dreamed this poem)
Someone I loved once gave me
a box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand
that this, too, was a gift.
Mary Oliver (2006)
Big Rube - Love’s Deceit (taken from ATL)
Get poem from a member of the Dungeon Family…
I touched you with fingertips dipped in sensuality
Pools of affection welled within my eyes
I kissed you with the passion of a heretic
…And in that moment, I knew you were mine
Words by mttblck. Clap for ‘em!! This is pretty smooth… I may have to use this one day! lol
