An Ode to Maya Angelou:
I’ve loved your skill, ever since I’ve ever read & heard your amazing poetic point of view. Your similes, your anecdotes, your word wit, your vivid scope: clear as the ocean’s blue. We thank you, for telling us why a Caged-Bird still sings… …and why it can still fly so high, with their enduring wings.… Continue reading

I live Life with no Filter:
I’m unrefined, unpolished…after an earthquake, demolished…I’m the raw substance. I’m uncouth, aloof…sarcastic thru the roof…but, at the same time, I’m totally honest. There’s no foundation on my surface, to hide my bruises that I’ve attained in my life. There’s no shield, that is used, to conceal what I’ve experienced, by trials and strife. From toy… Continue reading

“My Poetic-Proposal to my Lord”
Oh, Allah:Let me remember you when I am both happy and sad……regardless to whether I am calm or stark raving mad.Allow me to be ever thankful for any test which you’ve set forth in my path……for me never to take Your mercy for granted, that I never earn Your wrath.

Of the Slandered, but not of the Fallen:
[wpvideo LuHfJXGK] There’s news around town that Gareth Bryant is a fraud. They mean to judge me as I’m to be judged by my Lord. I’m given no recourse for self defence, against offense which can’t be proven. There’s a lot of behind the scenes envy at play, in shadows as a dank craven. I’ve… Continue reading

The Slander-Games:
[wpvideo sXo5AxI5] Don’t ever spy, and never delve into envy… …you’ll realize your good deeds aren’t any. When we violate the sanctity of reputation, without proof… …on Judgement-Day we’ll find our records will be all aloof. Never try to take what Allah has given someone else… …the fire of Justice will engulf all of your… Continue reading

All-American/Non-American:
I remember in middle school, my nickname became Saadam Hussein. I used to wrap a towel around my head so they’d all laugh. Their laughter used to ease the insults and pain But i realize I wasn’t their friend, I was just their joke. It was an early morning on tuesday. I was a young… Continue reading

I don’t Belong:
If earth is our home, why do I feel like I don’t belong? Nothing ever feels right. EVERYTHING feels wrong Why do I have this feeling of unrest? That keeps my mind in such a chaotic mess I walk, I talk, I eat, I play, I sleep I work, I run, But it just cant… Continue reading
