About me:
Poetry Atlanta was created in 1985 to help promote Atlanta's poetry and spoken word community. The nonprofit organization spawned the award-winning Atlanta Review and Poetry Atlanta Press, which has published such noted poets as Memye Curtis Tucker, Anthony Grooms and the Java Monkey Speaks Anthology series, which has won a Pushcart Prize for Patricia Smith and honors for its editors, Kodac Harrison and Collin Kelley. Poetry Atlanta also hosts the annual Voices Carry reading and supports the Poetry Atlanta Slam Team, which has competed in the National Poetry Slam for the last two years, coming in ninth in 2006.

'
one tear falls
and the world is healed

one tear falls
and your love is sealed

one tear falls
and the layers are pealed

one tear falls
and your beauty revealed



one tear falls...

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace... 

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog): 
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001 

Where traditions are not so rare; 
    Sea, country and works scent the air; 
A multitude of monuments, 
    Planted tubs and patterned pavements. 

The longish pedestrian malls; 
    The remnants of defensive walls; 
Historic buildings are a gauge 
    Of the respect for heritage. 

Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; 
    Estuaries guarded by shields; 
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; 
    Romantic-ruin go-betweens. 

Rivers in parts licked by trees, 
    Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, 
And crossed by practical delights - 
    Varied spans, forming pleasing sights. 

Fine churches headed at Durham; 
    Football kits ad infinitum; 
Kept castles - one for study; 
    Masonry behind masonry. 

And, with moulding-works out that way, 
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..? 

(C) David Franks 2003

What does hip hop mean to you?

Is it an art form? Or is it just a load of garbage?

What happened to hip hop?

I used to love her.

How about you?

Picture if U will my Mind as I set it free,
Picture perfect, as I conquer my scriptural desires,
Conflicting emotions I lay to rest,
As my journey begins from the depths of my Hell,
My emotion, my words, my mind, exposed raw showing for all to see
My foreplay, a razor edges cutting them to shreds, igniting my imagination,
Rage by ecstasy, no longer my inspiration, Just an ordinary man; Except me for who I am, or don't except me at all,
Be it Pen an pad, or keys stroking in darkness, I'm not ashamed to tell U, with every letter, with every stroke, my veins do bleed inspiration,
My minds literacy desire, bringing forth one final thrust of my imagination depths;
In darkness; my mind did explode with waves of honey dew words yet to be fore told,
I be just an ordinary man, no more no less,
Picture if U will, my voice, as I set my mind free, be it in silent communication............

Darkness comes before my eyez...
adapting, I can still see the prize.
Ragin' over the demons that have developed.
Somehow, someway, they come when I am alone at night...
They always come in my dreams,
underestimating me,
plotting on the fact that I am alone.
The darknes clouds the corner of my room,
everytime, I try to stare it in the eye,
the coward won't look.
Fear won't consume me,
I am yelling and screaming...
like I am the demon!
"I work for God!!"
I yell out...and I begin to laugh so creepy!
Eyez wide, my hands against the wall,
waiting for darkness to move!
darkness let's me out...
used to bound my hands and take my breath
but
I broke out and fought back,
Imprisoned for so many years,
all thru my child hood.
Only God can have his way with me,
only God can judge
I am heartress,
my love conquers evil.
I take and I give pain,
I was born a rebel...
Goddess in your eyes...
In the dark and in the light,
I will fear no evil!!
Birthed from the womb of God,
Fathered by flesh of the devil!
Demons hunt me when I sleep,
but I stay ready to fight,
like it's whatever!
humbled; mighty; intellegent; great, leveled...rebel
