Lord Of The Flies
Oh yea.. I know this dance
Very well
See
Misunderstandings misdirect missions against a misconduct
That doesn't exist
What a two step
And after promising my heart
That I would care no longer
Damn it there that bitch goes
Again
Caught up, then playing catch up
When I really dont know the answers, shit, sometimes not even the questions..
Shit just falls apart
Names get flung to all corners
And titles immediately assigned
Mine?
Lord of the Flies
Cant see the forest for the trees
So now the mole hill is mountainous
Once
Again and
The Lord stands alone
But not in a regal way
Just kind of
Standing alone
In a human way
The words are pressing against my skull now i cant get them out fast enough
Until all explodes into a catastrophic mess
Of words and pain and tears
And confusion
And that mass eats all
Digests the hurt it once
Swallowed
Breaks down the reasons until they dont give a fuck anymore
The reasons dont fight long
They only kick a little bit as they fade to black
Im sure its painless
Tho I feel the numb ache for some time after
Dont even know what i want from love any more
It will devour u whole
And I will only allow i to eat
Never be eaten
Food chain be damned
Where is my throne
Let me sit again
I am the Lord
The Lord of The Flies

...An Idea of Love
Tends to the stripes ripped into my Life
With a Slow Hand...
Envelops my Suffering like
The Soft Glow
from a subdued Moonbeam..
We
Collect Starlight and
share the Sparkles from
Constellations
in order to Create
Shimmering New Stories in the Heavens..
Generations Upon Generations
Will fall in Love a million times with Our Tale
and
Relive our Essence..
Rebirthing Our Love
over AND over
The Eyes of Angels tear up anew
for this Creation of Ours is Legendary..
Only able to be described
Hieroglyphically
Alongside the Likes of Cleopatra and Marc Antony,
Isis and Osyrus,
Hatshepsut and Tuthmosis..
Rah and
All Creation..
I can only hope to Live up to Her Sunshine
I wish
She would Write with Me..
Our Verse a New Baby
With a Heart of Cotton,
The Strength of Steel..
Aware of its Intent
but,
Unwaware of the
ABsolute Feeling of Its Origin
An Evolution of Thoughts
An Idea of Love

D.U..ET. (a poem by Christopher Lee & Kalonia Jennings

Blue
a smile of blue
she sought
continuity of curvature
to speak without the utterance of one sound
but i heard every word
all the makings of
a classic
beauty by
mine own standards
she defined purpose in her stance
others reveled in the obvious
and i
longed for what was
deeper
my
mind was tickled and giggled at
reasonings that filled her that
soared above the minds of the average
i was awed
she wasnt impressed
"its just me"
she said
as i
marveled at the caramel simmering
beneath
this fleshy kettle of fire
and traced lines with invisible fingers
that merely started at her legs
and ended at infinity
so it is unneccesary to comment
that
the caress is forever
rooted to both earth and man by locs of Queendom
and the heart by sincereity
and the eyes by a smile of blue
an unshakable essence
she possessed
that i wished to bottle
but who can bottle the spirit that is free
without
killing
what intrigued ur mind from Genesis
and
returning her smile to blue
i pray that if i were to be haunted
she would be my tormentor
and
if i were to be blessed
she would don the wings
of my
guardian angel
locs of wool caressing the
side of my cheek as
eyes meet and
lips contact
and meld into
this sweat inducing dream
i smell her breathing
i feel her cry
i arise
she
escorts
we
travel
who arrives
inconsequential
i came before i went
fight the feeling i must the desire tocrush the memory of this nymph into my soul
she is forever etched there and
i have neverseen
morethan theIdeaof she with the smile of blue

..In regard to my search for the perfect sunset
I think she probably scribed
the most perfect lines across the crown of the sky
that I had ever seen
Shining light into the lowest valleys and
Burning the glades and their shade with a
Quiet brilliance
Even thru her haze she managed to illuminate
other dark days
And with subtleness show us all another way
She Darkened my melanin and showed me ways to be a black man
again
She reminded me of my mother
Warming cool days and making things alright again
or At least to endurable for now
I watched her pursue her dream as she settled in the west every night.
Oft i dreamed of pursuing her but
she ran too swiftly along her track
So far away she would wander
I wondered if she would come back..
Alas for the wings of Nike
I would give a jewel
To follow just once
But in my 3rd eye I knew only a God
could look in her eye
I half-human
So every eve I would pray her vision not see tears
as I sit along the coast of the Pacific and
watch her explode into arrays of amazing color..
reaching out
as if she were rubbing my hand to say
"Maybe one day
Never is always worse than late
Who knows what sayeth the Fates.."
And if not for this human and weak body
I would sit forever on this beach
tearfully
but happily regret
My failure to capture
The perfect sunset
