Talile Ali Poems

AIN'T LOOKIN FOR WOMEN
AINT LOOKIN FOR SEX
JUST LOOKIN FOR FRIENDSHIP
I'M FEELING VEXED
...

WALKING DOWN THE STREET
THINKIN BOUT MY DATE
I PICK UP THE CELL PHONE
CALLED HER, CAUSE I'M LATE
...

We need National Health Care
By Talile Ali
...

Apocalyptic in it's measure
Caustic and devoid of pleasure
2020 came along
Taking right's and making wrongs
...

HOW OFTEN DO I STOP AND THINK ABOUT YOU
HOW OFTEN DO I HAVE TO BE WITH YOU
HOW OFTEN IS IT THAT I LAUGH AROUND YOU
HOW OFTEN AM I SO IN LOVE WITH YOU
...

TODAY I FELT MY MOM'S SOUL PASSING
T'WAS AGES AGO, NOT DAYS, IT SEEMS
FEELS LIKE I SPOKE TO HER YESTERDAY
OF ALL OUR HOPES, & LOVES, & DREAMS
...

MALIGNED FOR THEIR BEAUTY
DEFILED FOR THEIR MIND
DENIED THEIR RIGHT BE REAL
& AN EQUAL IN OUR TIME
...

YOU'VE THANKED ME FOR SO MUCH
NOW IT'S MY TIME TO THANK YOU
THANK YOU GIRL FOR NEEDING ME
IN ALL YOU SAY & DO
...

Winds blow hard
Clouds roll dark
The Sun it seldom shines
Folk detached
...
