My Shivering Petals
My Shivering Petals I am a Black rose, grown in a garden Where the color of my petals is often harden By the frost of police brutality, it withers My roots torn by the storm that it gathers. My parents, they are like birds trapped in a cage When pulled over, their freedom taken like a wage My friends, like rivers, overflow with tears As they speak of the harassment, their pain, it smears The system, a ship, lost in the sea It’s meant to protect but often it’s hard…

Friends
The praises of beauty flowed through How slowly and beautifully I cried too While I was thinking our past present future You were thinking you the earth And I the moon I think sometimes Whether it is the right place right time But this time is also a time Where I would recall the bond Between nickel and dime These memories of the past And fabrications of the future Are nothing more than the daydreams of my present I lust for entanglement You confuse in bad judgment…
