Parallel-o-gram

Mr. Mailman
just sent me a telegram
explaining the phenomenom
of this parallelogram.

It reads:
Dimensions the same
me, he
you and shethe idea of...
this can never be.

The idea perceived to be
so obtuse
but with acute perception
we explore the truth .

Complications arise
problem ensue
but the simple nature of the fact being
wanting it to be he + she/ me+you.

Ideals coming from different angles
flannels and glasses and shirts, oh my
his and mine the same
how could you be so heartless?
yours and hers too
in limbo we remain.

Coming from different ends of the spectrum
180 degrees
and yet you remain
complementary, completing me.

Round and round we go
360 degrees
it's hip to be square
we'll be all right, you'll see.

You approached me at the right angle
supplementary to my being
the great encourager
exposing life with more meaning.

Each equation
calculated with utmost precision
yet remaining questionable destiny
to keep you as an integral part of our lives
as we approach infinity.

Packing

Overpacking
putting to many things
in a confined space
that is only limited
to a certain amount
when stuffing it might
cause luggage to temporarily
hold that amount
but burst when the zipper
can hold no more
So organize.

Break the Seal

Breaking the norm
we break the seal
and unleash
the need to explore
the uncertain
and to our surprise
we pass on the bbq
and enter a portal
to journey off
to a faraway land
where guiness flows
and the crisp night air
bites at your cheeks
as we sneek off to a corner
of our own and reminisce
what a comfort this night has been.

Cash Only

A vision through the viewfinder
of dependence monetary
how great the impulse
of purchase outside the necessary
for forty days, forty nights
life lived
cash only
and we shall see
the value of things
created complimentary.

Definition

Begin as a bet yet
establishing a habit
to bring the definition of me
not referring to the meaning of me
but rather
ripples in the skin
glistening.

Journey Home

Amidst the cold chill
upon this winter weekend
and to me a beckoning
of an anticipated welcome
from down the mountain
through hills and valleys
my journey home
warmth awaits for me.

Any way the wind blows...

on top of the world
whisked away by the wind
don't push me away
i'm here to conquer you
you abominable beast
clawing at my feet
limiting my mobility
hop on my chariot
slice by slice
feel my swords edge
as I slay you.

Man of a Different Origin

Conservation
flowing so easily
how do you be this
man of a different origin
man of many lands
and many adventures
and of many women
Is it because I'm asian?

Zombie Chasing

Round one
I see the first clue
Round two
it has yet to appear
Round three
its handler stands and waits
and tonight
I avoid
the zombie chasing me.

Clutch

Step up
to the challenge
I sir will do
and know
that with pressure on the line
I will be the Kobe
to your 
Lebron
'cause as the greatest closer in the game
I stand victorious

The Lighthouse

Beacon
beckons
show the signal
the will guide my way
but a path not lit
a path not deliberate
but rather a guide 
for me to lay out
my own path 
so I can 
reach your light.

Garlic Fried Rice

Garlic Fried Rice
Yum.. yum.. yumm-y!
Get in there goodness,
In my tum.. tum.. tumm-y!
Gimme some
Gimme some
Gimme sum..sum..summy
A tasty treat when you gots no money
Salty bits
Some grains with crisp
and then your set....
unless you're buddy's with a vampire
then its death by breath.

Round Table

kings and queens gather 'round
the round table
now this story 'tis not of ye old fairy tales
of the king, king Arthur
king Arthur proclaimed king
by pulling a sword for a stone
but he proclaimed King
by taking a sword to the side
proclaimed king of Kings
and here you brothers and sisters
sit 'round the round table
to throw in your two cents to
create something priceless.

The Earring

glimmering, shining in perfect symmetry
but sadness ensues
the pair no longer a pair
rather a singular being
lonely unable to function
its presence no meaning.

but let us revisit
this dilemma we encounter
open your eyes wide so you may see
the being of you and me complete.

right to left yes a presence of imbalance
but face to face lies answers to questions
with our souls stripped bare
my eyes to your eyes
my feet to your feet
my heart to your heart
and everything beneath and in between
and how perfect my in-between-finger-crevice cradle your fingers tightly
igniting nerves
shuttling this message on a journey
telling the mind
that definitely and spiritually that this has to be
doubts erased, purposely misplaced
so that the naked ear can listen to this heart beat, beating complimentarily.

so let me be the object that hangs around you
and chime sweet sounds in your ear as you glide through
the crowd
and emit your radiance
for it not the glimmer of your earrings needing to shine
but your mere presence.

Outing

Outing
Gallavanting
Just in time for bed
the next second dancing
Hopping to the next venue
Hoping
It wouldn't be as desolate as the previous
but let's see
Good friends equates good times
the only requirement
for an
Outing

Needle in a Haystack

Rummaging
and engaging
in different establishments
looking for the one piece
that captures the essence
of the definition
of who I am and aspire to be
or maybe a collection of collaborative efforts
that create this gallery
I speak of

The Run

Breathing in air
as I slice through the cold winter breeze
and increase my energy
to produce my own warmth
my own heat
and burn with the fire
to keep me going
as I tire
I keep going knowing
a sculpted fine specimen of human being I
can aspire to be
nah just playing
more of being just a little bit more healthy.

Ice cream

I scream
You scream
We all scream
For ice scream
The best the world has ever seen
So good it can be called king
or rather queen
since Mrs Handel
perfected each sweet recipe
don't believe me
ask Bill Cosby.

Recovery

Rest and relaxation
recovery
new life breathed into me
invigorating
a new dawn upon me
stimulating
jump out my bed and out the door
and take in the crisp winter air and see the orchids beside me
and the grass a little bit greener and me a little more healthy
a blessing.

Complication

Doctor, Doctor,
I have a minor complication
a complicated ache in my belly
aching
pain occurring from so much hating
shoot me
with this love i.v.
inject me with the heavenly beauty
of rainbows and dew drops and dolphins streaming the sea
and bring me back to
simplicity.

Clouds

Illuminated steps to the heavens above
filling the void of darkness and noise
the damp and dreary
the calm after the storm
creating a 3 dimensional otherwise
blank palette
connecting the minuscule to the grand.

Slasher

Ancient movements
brought across the seas
the ancient lineage
from ancestors it breaths
the life of each stroke
each slash minimal effort
maximum effectiveness
the economy of motion

Bed-ridden

Bed-ridden
Sickness-stricken
possibly with a viral infection
Recuperating I jump on the world wide internet
and pull up a viral presentation
Now that's sick.

Collision Precision

A precise collision
helps me win the game
to the line I square up
and take my aim
A release so sweet
woulda thought it were sugar cane
and if all goes perfectly well..
"This is Sparta!" I claim.
300.

Call Me

Call me Mr. Haka Luggii
'cause I'm so sick when I spit
Call me Mr. Bell Man
'cause imma go get it
Call me Senor K. Grueso
and make you wonder just how thick this thickness is
possibly more Thicke than any Alan or Robin
but save yourself some money in this economy,
Use nights and weekends.

Wrestler

Mr. wrestler you jump off the top rope and gig
the gory for glory
the pain for fame
wrestling with the demons
and figurative to the literal
in your daily routine
chasing the dream
neglecting a life left behind
a love lost and never seen again

Cold

numbness extended outwards to all extremities
but ease and comfort is all i need
with the glow and the warmth of people surrounding me
when transformations occur of aspirations of a better life to lead
towards a road paved in gold
towards the gate so pearly
brought to you gracefully for eternity
from our homey- the holy trinity.
