How can I ignore (when)
Out in the streets,
Many remain without a home?
Each tent
Lives a man
Encaved in hope (that)
Someday he’ll make it and
Survive.

Terms of Endearment
“Hello, Baby Doll!”
Out in the open they greet
Moans in between their yellow teeth.
Each time I walk to work,
“Lady love,” they yell and smirk.
Endearing but I got no time to play.
“Sweetheart,” they say.
So goes my day.
Sundown in Downtown
My brother is in town!
From Seattle, boarded a plane to Downtown.
From LAX, witnessed the beauty of sundown.
From my house, partied with friends white and brown.
From partying, drank more beer in a bar to drown
from sorrows of missing us, his family. His crown.
From sorrow, laughed out loud just like a clown.
My brother is just as glad to be back in his hometown.
