Al J. Cuesta Poems

Rebel young man, rebel

For ‘tis in your rebellion you will grow

Rebel young girl, rebel
...

The ideas flew out of our minds like paper planes out of our windows.


Soaring through the air like waves at sea,

Some useful landing in somebodies ears,
...

Confined, acutely refined to being alone, acutely refined to solitude
Thinking of ways to spend my time and procrastinating my way out of pondering
Seems in times of despair we still rely on servitude
We fall under the schemes laid upon us from above without blinking
...

My heart confined
At home alone, desperately trying to be saved
Calling out for someone to say my name
Although the call is silent, the call is there
...

Keep a' wonderin' boy, take me high
It is in the passion of your eyes
Where I find the will to live
Where I find the strength to forgive
...

Hey you with the pretty face,
Welcome to the human race.
The sun is shining,
The sky is blue,
...

Ivory doll, so fragile
If only I could play with you
Without breaking your tender soul
...

Mankind lives at the crossroads

Home of the lost souls
Hermes said in conversation

We sit around waiting for our train to reach the station
...

Insomnia for days
How I hate you
How I would send you to the grave
Maybe you spout my creativity yes
...

Please someone good head the call
Someone graceful someone small
No big deeds or big kings or big queens
Just a small token of appreciation
...
