When they take our Lemon

When they take our Lemon
We will make lemonade 
When they are bad we will
Be Good and not afraid

And when they kill Pretti
And still show no pity
Get Border Control and
ICE out of our city

Shielding not shuttering

Shielding not shuttering
Standing ground without hide
Here are my positions
Should our two worlds collide 

Battles in the commons
And neighborhoods at war
Justice without jury
The bully is done for

Highlighted by twilight

Highlighted by twilight
Curbs of snow and ice stretch
From street block to street block
Sidewalk paths merely etch

Toledo railroad tracks
Like non-ending verses
Without a bend in sight
My journey diverses 

The night on my shoulders

The night on my shoulders
More and more sensing time
The changes in weather
The subtle and sublime

The clock in Grand Central
Beneath a starry dome
The constant reminder
We are already home

The religious bully

The religious bully
Caught up in their own lies
Magdalene was not stoned
Seven demons demise

How we love a story
Believe and not get burnt
Eternity is yours
If eternity weren’t

Coming into my own

Coming into my own
The Queen of the Andes
Evolving and growing
Years, I understand these

Dream with me if you can
Finally standing tall
With no scent to attract 
Just to spire and not fall

A day without surprise

A day without surprise
Just another sunrise
No sharpening of wise
A day I must refuse
 
Discoveries ahead
The morning light is spread
Enlightenment spearhead
With living as the muse
