My Own Horn In Hand
To Join The Band

lucky are we or are we blessed

Kemp Road people
sometime in the 90s
got Christmas lights
additionally, we have poetry,
a poet in the mix
amid what too many imagine
is one big negative
treatment even for sewerage
what’s liquid, what’s solid
to make use of

Calculating With Fractions

way she walks, as if she owned the planet
and she does, she walks as if she knows it
way she walks, she claims it
desire to connect with one with eyes open
noise makers, with music in vehicles booming
own less than these vehicles,
less than the music they abuse us with
assume these gadgets are what they own,
all their own
unaware that all the world is theirs
to cherish
