Don’t Be Judging Me


Lost in your cavalier dream,

Thinking you’re so righteous

You are not versed

About how I am living;

Until you’ve had a moment,

To live my sentence,

You’ve got no business,

Judging my repercussions.


Some dealt a harsher beat.

And it just ain’t right,

To wield your perception,

Of others you don’t know,

Living within different means.

Hold your tongue!


Even in the same house,

Reside different minds. 

Maybe I got a heavy load,

More than weary limbs can bear,

Better to lend a hand,

Than turn a dim eye.


You be judging another,

Instead of dealing grace.

It’s time to remove your shades,

Become reacquainted with the truth.

Perhaps it’s time to receive,

Someone else’s story.

‘If you only knew’


Maybe  I can enlighten;

A difference of opinion,

Cannot be your reason,

For judging a neighbor,

Better to lend sympathy.

Who we become emanates, 

From our life’s duldroms,


You musta had it easy

Doesn’t mean I’m rabble.

You think you’re a saint;

Try to view me at an angle,

Then maybe you’ll see,

Where you’ve strayed.


Freedom in who we are,

That is a far better gift,

Let go of your judgment,

Give room for another view,

Best always to forgive,

What you think is a sin.

It’s conceivable your lack of strife,

Makes you more wicked.


View me from another lens,

Maybe my soul’s purely genuine.

Who are you to judge another?

 Falling in My Dream 

Nightmares come to me even when I am not sleeping

Fire laps away at sweet thoughts turning them into ash

Away in a dream of gentle landscape I flee

Playing with fairies and heroes in my secret garden

Soft velvet touch of petal on my nose

I desired to suck in that fragrance

so it would fill my soul

It was sweet and I closed my eyes

Dance I did upon the page of music

To and fro moving with the melody light as air

That feeling of floating where nothing can touch me

Only sweet fragrance and kind melody

No longer do my eyes see

In the dark I play where memories fade

Floating in space where hands cannot find

I could fall forever and be so content

Only the wind to embrace me

Fire chases me and singes my fingertips

Blackened are what used to love

Bared teeth of demons snap

Petals open to reveal dead skin

What scent was sweet is now cinders of sulfur

The notes upon which I danced

dropped from the stanza

Songs disappeared and smoke remained

Holding onto to the last note

I lost desire to fall

With sudden discovery with no one to catch me

I would never sing again

All the Things Women are Afraid to Say


 Is there only business left between us?

All we have left is to linger over mundane plans of regular life?

I long for the day of dreamier exchanges

Of the slut and smut that once existed between us

What happened to the seductive intimacies?

Why can’t we just skip the proper polite exchanges

And return once again to the excitement of desires we once shared

I tire of the day to day

I wish to linger in the nights of fire

Can’t we return to our delights?

I want to ravage and satiate savage heat of fantasy

I still feel the burn of desire within when I gaze upon you

I still dream wet dreams of experiencing you

The rare instances we cross paths

You still are aroused by me

And I remember again why I yearn to feel you so when we are apart

Because it is almost more than I can endure when I feel you inside

How quickly that moment seems to be forgotten in the days to come

I want to return to the days

When our conversations centered on our lust

It’s not that I do not care about how you are

Or the success of your pursuits

And I do have pride in your accomplishments

But I tire of the business of it all and

It’s just that I ache for heated exchange
