Topic: Unrequited Love

You have fallen in love with the wife of a close friend....against your better judgement. Your friend is dogging her out...and she turns to you for support. It's been platonic up to this point...but you don't know how much longer you can keep it that way.

Spit a piece explaining how you would handle it.

Elmyra....the choice of a new generation

My first ever slam ...........~*whew*~ here goes nothing.....


You
us
me
walking into a sea of change
nevertheless
the never cross my mind
falls into the place where
time and space
doesn't matter
crossing thin lines
of
eye contacts light touches
and friend ending kisses
his
Mrs.
their business
my wishes
sacred places infiltrated
demilitarize zone
blown
with weapons drawn
see me
with the keys to reality
and the fruits of loyalty
but I'ma just leave this shit alone
and let it end on it's own..........





















































Everything is how you react to life's situations.......please believe it!

When you Love,love hard and like you've never been hurt.......

KEEP IT REAL DOT COM

I stare...

And in the comforting embrace,
I fall into open irises that always invite me only so far.

In that moment,
a sea of I-Told-You-So's is washed away
by salty streams
and what your eyes tell me.

So...

I listen...
To the tune of a record I've heard
since before you noticed I had ears.
I watch the needle that never quite fit your groove
play itself across the scratched
surface of your soul
yet never quite as broken as your heart.

The mellow rhythm of your longing
nearly puts me to sleep.
I dream the dream you yearn for,
and wake up as empty as my bed...
all because he gives you hope
and a 3 syllable lie.

I feel your breath,
warm, hurried and sweet
with each "why" that it carries...
and I feel as guilty as if I had stolen it from your lips
with my own... without pretense.

My heart hammers against my chest,
breaking friendship in case of emergency.
I soak in the water of life on your lips,
wondering
if it would put out the fire in my soul.
Fire that has burned for you since I learned
that he
could never cultivate a blaze;
merely put his foot down
and stomp out any signs of passion approaching.

Even your feet
bear the mark of weariness.
Tired of learning the steps
to a dance that he could never appreciate,
leaving you tripping in your lonely folly.

What I wouldn't give to caress those feet...
Every ounce of my being
dedicated to you in the open...
Teaching you the two step of my heart

But we can't tango without stepping on his toes.

So I sit in silence,
waiting for the gentle tinkle
of a heart
shattered for the last time.
When I can finally say something...

You are unemployed...homeless...no loved ones to turn to...and have been refused government aid. Your back is against the corner...and you are rapidly trying to find a way out of your predicament.

Elmyra....the choice of a new generation

i was an emcee
once.

unbelievable, i kno' --
i hardly believe it myself, oftentimes...
collapsed in this here, makeshift habitat
sighing the sorrows
of an era long gone...
former cypher-king,
crowned wit' scripts of battle raps.
and then i fell~

from grace, was it...
karma, misfortune?
was it fate?
that i lie here, now
spitting-lips split...
confident smirk & mic replaced...
by a gnarled stick and a
much tighter face, scrunched up
figure hunched up...
frame bent, flame spent...
i had fire in my eyes once, i promise you.

before they became --
haunted & tortured...
from these calloused fingertips i hold before you,
divine scriptures were authored.
a bishop revered by lesser peers,
...commandin' armies of sentence in symphony
fallen from grace you might say...
i now await the reaper's scythe 2 send f'r me.

'hope' a forgotten memory...
creature comforts once mine 2 squander
now an animal in a person's garb,
streets of mine own thoughts i wander...
left to recollect.
full0belly fantasies...
soap; a madman's dream,
ask me~

how it feels 2 have diginity stripped,
ego's swallowed?
draped in despair, left in melancholy to wallow...
striding streets & searching,
surreptiously for sustenance or shelter within
which to cower.
i can't say i recall
when last i showered
tho' i still remeber rockin' flow-concertos,
the stage my page.
one day...
i'll scribe for myself a new life
evict the darkness with new light...

bastardized son o' the slums
sportin' fragrance of a vagrant, i know.
a pitiful sight...pathetic; the pigeonhole for my plight
yes, i said i know,
but...
i wasn't crowned a wordsmith for nothing, no?
in the mental, i see your own
throat parched as you
thirst in earnest to be verb-blessed
bent over from a need
my nimble spittle used to feed...

...and **this** is my dream~

one day, redemption through mine eyes
shall be seen...
for hope is only as elusive
as the faith of the fallen man...
and two birds in the bush remain worth one
in the hand...
...so 'till i rise, crookedly i stand
on a street corner for pennies scramblin'
the grip that crushed mics...
degraded to panhandlin'.

my time will come, i promise you...
oh, yes --
without equivocation,
this i know.

deviatin' from DVS' set path, but erm....i was kinda goin' 4 the bigger picture & the details -- i went off on Desperation, rather than the specifics...so mine was geared more 2 Having lost all hope/showing despair/Nearly hopeless; critical/Suffering or driven by great need or distress....y'know? juss summa the definitions of the word, so i juss felt the need 2 explain y it looked like i was on a tangent...didn't mean 2 gum up the works, yo...pCe 2 all -- stay steady votin'.

Git it?

Brother was the C.A.S.E.
that they gave me

Little Middle brother
Talking slow
With momma milk
Dripping from biggest little bottom lip
On baby boy face
Spoke to
Bigger sister
He held high
Three years the elder
Raising seeds
That belonged to the brown skin lady
Who worked 3 shifts at the hospital
And went to night school
LPN with RN ambitions

Little Middle Brother
Saw Momma love
Spank black bottoms
And shake bigger sister small
Red ribbons and bushy pig tails
Dangling in mid air

But she always found time
To wipe little boy milk
Off of crusty chin
Before he went outside

Never did he realize
In all Momma work love
And midnight tired kool aid spilled spankings
She created hateful monster
In big sister eyes
Alienating any hope
Of love returned

Little did he know
Big Sister would become youngest sibling
In Ms Momma’s house
Being struggle’s causation
Creating rifts
Where love usually rested

Little man grew
Watching elder by three
Fall smaller
By seven

But in grown man bones
And chipped tooth’ed smiles
He finds compassion
Within his inner
Searching for the strength
To be the elder
Enlightening sister momma
Drama
Between
Crazy kool aid spanking lady
And she who he
Held high

But as sure as
The melanin baked goodies
Contained in milk wet cheekbones
He found resolve
Stretching man hands long enough
To wrap love around it
And squeeze it back
Where it belonged
In his Momma’s eyes
And in his sister’s smile

Brother was the C.A.S.E.
That they gave me.

For periods giant reptiles spanned the globe fighting, fucking across the land they roamed
Until time brought them down and turned them to things desirous to be owned
By mammals
That had the ability
Albeit with instability
To domesticate other animals
From chickens to camels
These mammals also spanned the globe fighting fucking
Many loved
Many Hated
And as was the fashion
Across the land they roamed
And their collective ignorance was sharply honed
And their capacity for violence was too
And they were alienated
By the compassion
Shown to them by the wise, who struggled to enlighten them only to…

HALLELU YAHWEH! AMEN

let it be, or be it may
once plus one more
at about two today my mind drifted with the slight desert draft
not cuz my pockets got a lack of cash,(which is mostly)
or not even because shit isn't exactly tha way its supposed ta be
but cuz like once before,
today was blessed plus one more
met a fine woman three days before "last-marrow"
approached my side asked if she could barrow, (a flame)
ta spark her self a sticky mini tree,
her locks were intwined and elongated like branches from nana's willow tree.

i said a'ight (of course)
she passed it so i could hit it (i wanted to litteraly)
had ta look twice for a second
i know she didn't mind
what can i say, her "honey kissed browns" had my pupils in check
like a rook from directly infront, aint gonna front
it was'nt just the blunt, or the shape of her front
(maaaaaannn the back tooo)
but that sunsetting noon ( i felt like a king)
haven't seen a butter-fly my way in a while
jus empty- hollowed cocoons.

maybe the eve desert winds braught her song
but as quickly as the zag burned she was gone
(i shouda rolled anotha one)
maybe she woulda stayed,
maybe it was for the best, who knows what we woulda did if we was blazed
(definately one of my better dayz up ta date)
she said i could call her, she said she wanted ta get ta know me
i said what about a date?
she said we jus had a pretty good one
damn that was deep, why is this one in my sleep?.

so today i got payed
baught a dub
sat on the library bench rolled one
stareted ta hum (her math)
the noon draft blew my smoke away after each inhale
seems like i got high jus remebering her smell
(what tha hell) i think i'll call her t'marrow
but first i think i'll finish my spliff
thinkin' bout my desert gift that blew my way three days
before last-marrow.

today blessed once plus one more...

time is not fair
it moves differently for all
indifferent to all
but its own fancy.
time moves not a second faster
to speed us through tense and turbulent waters;
refuses to drone
extending sceonds of idle bliss...
time ignores all poking and prodding
all attempts at constraint.
time heals all wounds
at the expensive cost of age and decay.
time will not be bargained with
there is no negotiation.
as i might give of my unspent years
to save my unspent tears
and walk into deaths arms embracing its touch
negating my fears.....
time will have no part of it.
time allots seconds to impact eternity
minutes to measure infinity
and in time we all rejoin the divinity.
sometimes
before our
time.

Elmyra....the choice of a new generation

The poles of my iris meet
the eyelids of the father….
bearing in his grasps
the forbidden fruit of my tragic flaw;
Grand Opening of Panadora’s box
could…
leak secrets of every inch of weakness
without the slightest whisper;
I proceed to the gift bearer
With the intent to intercept the ribbon cutting ceremony;
I dance for rain to cause the slightest delay
Because once the two blades meet…
And Lucifer runs free of shakles
all hell’s gonna break loose;
{Times running out}…
possession arrow for the opposition…
I crumble… under pressure
Knowing that soon the road of my every existence
Will come to a culdesac;
The -hands- on experiences
are not the only driving forces
To drive me towards the man in the trench coat
But, love
…itself…
Has me doing epicycles for eternity
Knowing that…
When its comes to the “box”
You can patienty wait sipping on a Cherry Soda Pop
But in the end once your finished …
Redeeming for 5 cents is out of the question…

Album Comming Never

i make it a point
not to point or stare
but the open mic was over
the deejay was spinnin some sht i don't like
but the beat was nice
u showed up on the floor
devil wearin' a red dress
doin' that snake charmer thing
that dance of abandon
and i love a woman who's not to cool to dance
and i found myself bobbin my damn head
to some jiggy sht
and i hate that song
but the beat was nice
and i try to make it a point
not to point or stare
but what was the point
i might as well been wearin x-ray specs
probably on this side of embarrassing
but you
started
staring
back.
and back to life back to reality
i don't actually have these exchanges casually
or even at all
so was it time to drop the ball
or go for the slamdunk
this damn funk bumpin in my ears
in all my years i've never seen a scene unfold
like this one
and that song kept playin'
and my head kept bobbin'
cuz the beat was nice
and i thought abt it twice
cuz u were three times a lady
and i was half the man i used to be
but i took one step at a time
and i asked ya
how the hell can u dance to this?
and u said
"well
i hate this song
but the beat is nice"
and i try to make it a point
not to point or stare
but we punctuated points as we sat on the stairs
and we talked a mile a minute
cuz dances are a dime a dozen
and bad songs with nice beats don't last much longer
than four minutes
so i took yr five fingers in mine
and half a man
and three times a lady
became two of a kind
if only
for one night

..but alas,

like an early morning King Sized,
my mind was made up.
Lines drawn in the sands of time
that could not be erased...
only
crossed times double.
second thoughts of settling scores..
never my original goal
Am i the man i claimed to be?
..since revenge adopted
my focus?
thirst for closure masquerading
as ambition in an intellect's clothing..

yet..

my stares are dry
my speech is cold
and tomorrow
is not as warm as
i once thought it was..

fake smiles
are blinding
and people wonder
why i squint and grimace
when I'm surrounded by
such joy and brotherly love..

some find that intriguing
others..rude
and still others,
troubling

my walk is unbalanced
voted most likely
to rock the boat
or at the very least
drown in my soul's
tears..
or worst yet..
slip on society's piss
while trying to toss
shit at the media's fan..

leave a pathetic stench
for generations
before Father time
could make ammends...

~respect~

1st Poetry slam, or slam for that matter... here goes...


With sixty minutes of twenty-four hours I held onto
My three a.m. love
who saw me in the night
…and forgot me with the sun

I declare war upon your soul!

That soul that neglected me…

I shall have revenge!

Revenge like the night
Upon day

When all is said and nothing has been done

For the water color battles amidst the crystal skyline…
when mango and blueberry met
and beautiful was birthed

Pain shall be where love once dwelled
Intruding upon comfort
only to serve dismay

Feasting on hate
and digesting the compassion.
once satisfied with anger
my soul
shall nap with the stars and prance with the sun
The sun, that I thought was mine…
That once eternal flame that burned bright…
And now lays dull.

Trapped in clouds of fantasy
You dropped my heart like rain on a parade
My rainbow a claim in your legacy
The ultimate crime has taken place
and none
shall ever be forgiven
For you have disguised mischief
With trust
And deceit with
Care.
My love … satirical
My heart victim to tragedy.
And at 3 a.m. my love when I
Begin anew with saturn
and
Cry to mother earth
I will amend the hurt of my memory
And you will be forgotten.

Elmyra....the choice of a new generation

my emotions are
wet clothes
strung up
across my forehead
screaming
abt my
dirty laundry
hung up and
left
to dry

i'm not tryinda
cuff yr hands with
wedding rings or
tie u to my bed
anchor u to my sink
drown yr hands in dishwater
i wanna be the throne that u sit in
while u become my queen
i'm not tryinda cage yr bird and
make it sing for me

i love u like the moon
i love myself as pt of u
i want u free as the air we breathe
i want u sure as the moon in the sky
i want my sunrise to reflect on yr cheeks
and then sparkle in yr eyes
before bringing my nights
which bring me to yr thighs

my love is
sitting wet
a premature ejaculation
a map to my wet dreams
an apology on yr lap

my emotions are
wet clothes
strung up
across my forehead
screaming
abt my
dirty laundry
hung up and
left
to dry

i see
rings
everywhere
there is a ring around my phone
that keeps me from calling u
there is a ring around yr body
that keeps me from touching u i
tried to put a ladder
between me an u
but it dropped
and the great walla china
peeked through i
can't talk to anyone
if i can't talk to u
there is a ring around
the numbers
on the clock
that's beating out seconds
minutes and hours of
embarrassment

i'm
not
hungry
if i can't eat my words
i won't
eat anything else
my stomach is full
of butterflies
scratching
flapping
building
anxieties
i'm so ill at ease
i got no
possibilities
left

i always mapped
our days
together
now i have no directions left, can't
find my way outta this hole i'm in and
sinking
deeper into
cuz i can't climb up
the sides of yr smile
anymore
i'm slipping from tooth to tooth
running from truth to truth
stuck in a biggol gap of u
i can't digest yr
silences they
sit
heavy
in my empty stomach

my emotions are
wet clothes
strung up
across my forehead
screaming
abt my
dirty laundry
hung up and
left
to dry

You got me feeling like triple black spring nights
80 degree fireflies, the cool buzz of brew, spades and dice
asphalt grass and pine, southern life
streetlights flicker goldenrod copper and tickle bronze noses with ozone
be it the Ritz or the projects anywhere with you is at home
eyes as fresh as the dew,
goodtimes and you,
go together like freestyle and beatbox
touch me with fever and my heartstop
paused...straight through screendoor autumns
making love to you by the 200 piece cricket sunset sonata
you climax two stanzas into the second song
anongst the lawn time stop but the world press on
you own my heart, hand and soul collectively
in times where I thought I knew it all you respected me
you amaze me and the way that the days be
good and bad and passing us by and you never cease to take me
to higher planes of self...
we regroup on marriage prophecies...
properties as baby daddies and wifeys
people misconstrue as novelties..
inept beyond love levels of fuck
they lust upon dependency and euphoria we acknowledge in a touch
so as look at your hair and sleeping face
my bedside manor lobbies for realty in your dreamspace
wondering which locale does the night erect
in plays of slumber I audition for parts on each and every set
hoping to loft on the same Z's
I mimic the way you breathe
still exasperated from trying to chase you
proposals aren't something I often do
heart on my sleeve, answerless I lie with the question
how much longer will you admire my coolness under pressure
?

-stephani
Essence reiterated to shiver me,
torn between oceans and pools with glass in between
I am weary and grasping you techniques
with perspired perspectives, oiling the sqeaks
I cannot lye down in a feathered gap and picture air-brushed nails
For baby it only sheens the follicle of every accupunctured/ angered label
and suits wishes of slow-motioned pivots and bouncing curves with not a word coming from my lips,
but we teeter 'tween obscure bliss
blessing a bruise that's braised,
breaking at risk~MEE
