Family Reunions A time of: togetherness A time of love and happiness A time for watermelon, potato salad Baked beans, sweet potato pie, Barbecue, iced tea, homemade ice cream Corn on the cob, soda pop. A time for: playing cards, dominoes, horseshoes Baseball, taking pictures. A time with: family, parents, friends, babies, Grandparents, grandkids, mothers, fathers Sisters, brothers, uncles, aunts, sons, daughters, cousins, in-laws. A time for: hugs, kisses, photo albums, smiles and laughter. Remembering the good times and the bad times, Remembering the fears, the tears, yet Sticking together after all these years. © Eve Hall 2002 www.evehall.com |

The poet... He says he wants to make love to my mind… Take his time, feeding me images and words Like fauna and flora, mental bursts of pleasure I’ve come to treasure Birthing new rhymes, a beat I can tap my feet to Creating lullabies, I want to fall asleep to Make love to my mind…Seep into my psyche He doesn’t hesitate, never procrastinates, only regulates His flow, smooth, like silk, sweet tender etchings At my door, and I ain’t gonna lie, I want more I tremble and shake, trying not to wake, trying not to quake Too soon, But I can’t hold, can’t stop, won’t stop The orgasms of thought, birthing mad verse Food for the universe…and me His words His words Free me He says he wants to make love to my mind…. And I’m thinking, yeah…one mo time! SG Hey Carey! |

The reply.... Although we dance among questioning eyes and our lips have never meet I feel no shame for the love I have I believe in dreams There is a place where dreams come true if only for a while Ply me with your visions of love spoil me with you I wait patiently for your high Love has gone love has left Surely love never dies? Oh stars, Oh God, what destiny does thine hold Should I stop this mental agitation Tell me why Do I dream as a man... That wishes on a star Should I let her walk away If I so dream If I may wish I dream of going back I wish to take her with me Then I'd have more ... More time to spend with her More time to do it over again And again And again If I could, I would I wonder if she knows... Hurt is a man that has a dream, that doesn't show I wonder if she knows I am going to lay down and dream... Again And again I am going to dream of.... Yeah....one mo time! C C Hi! |

Really....? I know absolutely nothing about poetry....not one thing. Structure...pacing...form....zero. I'm running around in a room with no doors. I was just writing from my heart. I did however like dancing with you, even if it was merely in my mind. Even if you are stroking me with your comment, it felt good . I wrote another one called ..Voyeur....but I didn't want to embarrass myself by posting something that may be considered wacked or ......or you know...not poetic. Again, I know nothing about poetry so I don't want to muddy the place..... For real Sisgal....don't hang me out here....do you think I should post it? |

I am guilty I am a Voyeur I call her name ... Inspiration Am I really...guilty? Heart... What is my crime I am a Voyeur Gratified by observing I steal a glance, a moment Her style, her smile, her flow,...she goes She leaves... Satisfaction Thief...? She Gives ME...stimulation Sensations I own this joy Permission is absent, consent not desired Fear invades me... If she knew... I love her I am guilty I am a Voyeur She is my punishment and my consolation... My prize My feelings, my pain, I own Her love is but a dream I am a Voyeur C C |

The Rebuttal: I am captured by your stately grace, your rhythmic pace Locked in hell, I want to yell.... This vision is mine A slave of....my mind, I don't mind I luxuriate, can't wait, quicken my gate... To open you I am the the guard, the prisoner, I fight I struggle.... The imagery of you I lounge in you I wander, I get lost in you There's no curfew I am the gatekeeper Radiant from afar Steeped in pronounced beauty Please come again You I can't help myself I can't, I grin Voyuer...I think not Only you I am captured by your stately grace, your rhythmic pace I lust for.... Only you! C C |

Sisg They seem to want more.....should we ....ahhh shut the door *smile*? Voyeurs they are! But before I go: I share your pain, I call your name... Others are around Yet jubilence be gone, if I am wrong Before I kiss your lips Distant... Be but an instant If you call... My name What a fool I must be Oh this state of mind A paradox for sure, not mine to explore you have the only key Boxed in, can't get out Outside....inside will you let me in? Beside... You thrill me A suggestive wink, flirtatous pose, is that what lover do? I know You can't go, I don't belong to you Escort my love, vanquish my pain, like a mother to a child... Lie if you must, that's okay I'll love you all-ways A musician said,... Barry?.....maybe? "playin' your game" Baby! C C |

The Finally: Your words did not come, your smile did not grace my face, I am left to dream, to hope I dream... Moisture from your breath, watering my soul Narcosis, hynosis... You, running through my vains The heart grows... Palpitations, proliferation, can you hear it... Can you hear me, speak that I may know Out of control, which way do I go Driving on lust, hearts going to bust An antitote...you You can ease the pain Speak the perscription, say my name Procastinate....? Gloom looms, gravitates Comes.....Come If late...my fate fatality Me? Me! Pride I can no longer hide Shame now escapes me Where will I go Breath shallows, I am falling, gallows below Going down, cast me a rope... Hope... You! C C |

FINE (inspired by MJB…oh and life) I’m feeling mighty fine Guess it’s true what they say about time And beauty in the eye of the beholder About stepping up and being bolder Wasted so much time Trying to be with you I forgot all about me That’s some trick you pulled Some of the best magic yet Chanting your spell Spinning your web Casting your net Daring me to fall Had me facing brick walls Ooowhee got that voodoo stick That Macho shit Spinning verbs Spitting words, like fire and desire Rick and Teena style Had babygirl buckwild For a minute Now, I’m just fine You may have stolen my heart But I got my mind, and it says without a doubt…I’m just FINE (cue in MJB…..) |

Ooooooh, you've been somewhere. Nice! Fine huh? Of course a man would probably say: Trite but yet I'll write Fine...like sweat wine or just okay? A sweet sensation pure elation Yes, I've tasted you...your wine Gonna be alright... In the morning Figuratively...? Possibly Buckwild, for a minute you say Figuratively...? Possibly We still have time to play Your Honor, I plead the fifth Her heart was a gift Fair exchange ain't...... I gave her all of me "Voodoo Stick, that macho shit"? You tricked me, you sicked me On you Stuck like a Pit Bull's, pull Bonded, wounded, can't lose it Don't want to I'm lovin' it You Wasted? Didn't know it, you didn't show it Like jelly and jam on the side of a jar Or like New Years...back seat...our car. Wasted? Postmarks fade, memories follow... Tomorrow...make new ones...leave old ones Can't go back SHAQ...ATTACK REBOUND Fill the lanes Get Close Closest to you, osmosis will do The end doesn't have to be bad. That's that (MES + LSLH) |

BECAUSE I'm Old School Wiser by nature My nomenclature Frozen in time, big glazier Cold in love with you Old School...can you hear me Tick Tock, like the inner workings of a fine Swiss watch A clock, locked in time, stuck on you Entwined In you Your voice Your choice Verse unrehearsed, a curse But ooouuuu, drip a little on me Work it girl Do what you do, put that thang on me Can't resist...don't what to Because... Am Old School |

Black Man.... Since birth you have amazed me…black man. You showed me your strength, wrapping your arms around me, encasing me in a love I will never forget or ever regret. So tall like the oak tree, so wide like that ocean, my protector, purveyor of many talents, cook, clown, my own personal entertainment you were to me…and never a day went by when you didn’t show you loved me. By the time I was a teen I recognized you in little boys trying to be men. You were cute, and sometimes a little bit notty, and yet I still found you intriguing whether you wore that MJ fro, or Deangelo styled braids, from ebony to ivory you were the coolest, your swag was unmistakable…who was I to question that mystifying you, that was so you. When you asked me to dance, me barely 14, you almost past 16, bluelights, slow music, I believe it was the Isley Brothers playing…I mean how can I forget, you were the cutest of cutest, the coolest of coolest, and I was sitting with about 6 other girls, more formed, far more sophisticated than I, and yet you chose me. We danced, attached, limb by limb to Sensuality, and then again to “make me Say it Again”…that whole side of the Isley Brothers was off the chain, you smelled like freshly dipped chocolates…and your cheek was so soft next to mine, I thought I would sink through it…and I think I wanted to. By 16 I found love, dark chocolate, tall and just a little on the shy side, but you made me laugh whenever we were together, you had mad respect because your mama taught you that. We would do things, I never done, experience life, being young and in love and I would know what love was supposed to be…even when it didn’t last, black man, you would always remain my dream. I chose you to be my man, my lover, my husband because you were strong, respectful, you had a swagger all your own, and plus you can speak French, which had me curling toes and fingers and sliding deeply…before I knew it I was becoming, had become a woman, and then a mother. Many have come and gone, and yet I still don’t bemoan you…you are precious indeed. I want to ease your pain; I want to love you again. I want to partner with you, I want to uplift you, I want to fly with you, cuz this young lady remembers all that you are, and knows all that you will be…Black man…You are the only one meant for ME! |

Hi Sisgal Thank you so very much. Posting, playing along, it's been fun. But see, I knew I was in the wrong arena. I've loved your poems, they were so...so...you know. The form, the transitions, the flow. You can tell you are a writer. I am medling in your house. I did learn something from your style. I didn't give mine much thought, it was purely entertainment...fun doing them. Espeacially playing off of your vibe. I would read yours and hit the keys. But on the real YOU did inspire (he left *wink*) some of my thought. And that mental tease piece was the s**t. I wish I could explain that but I don't wish to embarrass you. A_women will just blow it up *LOL*. But again, you have skills...real skills. Again, THANKS. Carey |

In his eyes... I'm beautiful bountiful a flower rarely seen a birthday wish a surprise gift a pleasant dream In his eyes i glow i shine i am placed on a pedestal for all to observe an yet my adornment does not displease him for he knows it's only him i serve Never blind to my disposition he sees through me Even when i cannot see the beauty lies within he has shown me love again with a gentle nudge he places me back on track from the sideline he cheers an encourages "prepare, and run your race, no looking back" NO LOOKING BACK and yet remember where you've been the past is the past, tomorrow we WIN! In his eyes...I am the prize! *thank you Carey. |

There she goes Going deep inside again Stimulating my mind Tingling my soul There she goes... Again I was released from jail, locked in hell, she called I was lost, lost it, couldn't find it... My way Like a man chained to the bottom of a slave ship, death lurked Death above me, death below me An impending doom Waiting on me She called Like a slave, shackled, shamed, my life behind me a distant past A prisoner, lock in my own mind, never a visitor She called No motivation I was lost in utter darkness She walked in and pass the torch to me Light comfort kindness She soothed my soul Her words Her likeness Her darkness A confluence of bold black and beautiful standing tall, reaching out extending herself to me Shaking me Waking me She said, "WE" The past is but a distant memory There you go again You said it best Yeah...tomorrow we WIN There she goes again...MY REWARD! *Thank YOU Sisg. |

I hope you don't mind I've personalized your essence Your presence stays with me Lingers, fingers my pleasure zone I dream Intoxicated I've waited I missed her My Sister Gal Apropo...I don't know But I am loving the brilliance of you Sharp bright light, laying claim to my heart Blinded, I don't mind it Stroke me Choke me Hit me with another word shot My mind is center around you Inside Outside Don't want to be leftout, without You My love, our friendship is not ambiguous Predisposed to go her way, time will be the test Hope you don't mind! |

Life seems lost, when you're all alone life seems lost when alone but no life is lost on dreams or visions life is sustained in all that we wish life is proclaimed in the future life is claimed Don't waste time in what will not be don't spend your time wishing Make life what you want it to be prescribe your happiness, your joy, your WE it's not as far as you seek and maybe closer than you see everything you hope for is in this reality. So my friend be happy in the now, and the near be happy in memories and visions be happy in your future be happy in your past be happy for memories of love at last. I pray you will be Happy. |
