Ageless by Force

I'm a lil less chaste
A lil hoary
less white pearly eyed
Unlike the baby

Though earthly time haste,
you’re forever 23

No more daps
A chat with you today
And I'm on the 5th
At E.A. Conway

From 3 to 2D
From earth to cloudy

Now Thoughts, mind reruns
pics, and vids, from facebook
Via my computer love
of your state above; as dove

Motivated by your absence
To strive for two
Then hit Africa
Try to fix the virus
R.I.P Kells, I'll keep you alive kid

Though earthly time haste,
you’re forever 23

Blade of Grass

A flexible, functional spine
Clad in its charming, vibrant green
at dawn, even as dew rolls off its back,
and at dusk, when the dust lie

A path to the caterpillar
The ladybug’s hangar
Clothes to landscape
Unbound by culture, and religion

Cutting, soothing; poison, food
Herbivores are fed
Stuffed; then green is bed
Itch bed, to one without cape

Post storms, floods, and bigfoot’s stomp
Post mower’s blade; the remnant stump
Though weak in facade; filament,
Resilient is the blade
Powerful is the blade

Temporary is form; is strength
Permanent is power; is class

I’ll be a blade of grass
