Poetec Eyes

ten fingers and ten toes of sassy

30 ilbs of sheer trouble

and mean looks                

and monkey tendencies

and that. what you gone do about it, smile

hugs and spankings are her blessings and curses

and her tummy is just as big as her attitude

she is just as advanced as her language

though her slick remarks are 8 times out of ten out of context

she is the epitome of precious

dry lips and wet kisses

sticky feet

and ever developing temper tantrums

crooked smiles

and her own dances

just as small as the little things

lesson learned

live it up you’re only a child once 

Take me in your hands

And hold me tightly

Place me at the top of the page

And write me speechless

Write until I am hollow inside nothing less to give

Write me lawless

On the sides of buildings like graffiti

Tattoo me across your arms

So I can penetrate your blood streams

And give you something to say

Write me to tears

Write me softly

Like kisses on the cheeks of infants

Paint me in the sky

Write me until words no longer serve a purpose

Let’s pen in hand

Cause uproar in this dying world

Write morals and values back into the hearts of man

Write me illegal

The truth has been on trial

So let’s testify

Write me as a legend

Write me free

Write me speechless

Write me immortal

Hiding our notebooks from the enemy

Lining our pockets with shreds of poetry

To feed a dying tongue

Decaying from its it previously spoken curses

Write me reality mixed with fantasy

To reach the masses

Etch my name on the crucifix

With Christ I died

Write HIM within me

So my pen is a vessel

Full of his truth

Take me in your hands

I am the pen in the fingers

Of the author of the universe

Write these verse

In unison with your heart beat

And dear father

Write me speechless

So I can rest burden free

To be filled in my dreams

So in the morning I can say

Take me in your hands

And hold me tightly

Place me at the top of the page

And write me speechless…
