Charles Monroe

Greetings from across the seas
Readings from the loss of peace
City full of Boston teas
Pity-fool-less Constantine(s) .
...

I am. That is all.
I enter this realm
In Peace and Humility
With Wars under me.
...

When the hills and the mountains someday are made low
And rough places made plain, and untended seeds grow
When the peacocks take flight and the crooked made straight
Until Justice rolls down like an avalanche quake
...

I learned my history from Murals
These walls of hardened mud taught me more
Than the biased archives put together by the invaders.
There is a formula for Colonization-
...

Lovely.
Finally something somewhat relative
To my competitive arrogant narrative.
Of Judges and Nurses
...

So, so true
When value is hidden
God: the poet
Soul: is written.
...

Remember me not,
For the battles I have fought,
But rather at peace.
...

In a world that's flavored acidly
Wish they all would think like Cassidy
But unfortunately for us
All the world is colored puss.
...

puzzled skid row kids in blankets
play with string-less tennis racquets
Alleys seem comical; buildings phenomenal
empty abdominal tables with dominoes
...

No smoking signs are everywhere I look
Except in the Kitchen; I smoke while I cook
A hot-dog/ quesadilla with the white cheese
That melts away all while I smoke as I please.
...

We are the
Villains because we speak truths
While heroes are silent
Divided in groups.
...

December children in inner city days;
sun rays refuse me over silver aviators
police are bees and we the pollen
menthol minted breath conversations are held
...

My fire is thermal
And spreading in turbo
Orange nocturnal
Dark purple Inferno
...

Oh how ludicrous the fee,
Guessing contests aren't for free.
Dare I invite every one
But my contest is for fun.
...

No definition
at least with precision
Of us Wizards of the Word-Whirlwind
At Wood-Chuck's Word-Shop
...

I found myself among the lost
Pentagrams inside a cross
Where the pion is the boss
And the neon has no gloss
...

Sad Beginnings
Lost my winnings
Food stamps provided
By the U.S. Government.
...

Fancy Flavio from the hills
never heard of paying bills
Though he never had an ailment
He's, regardless, taking pills.
...

There is a smile from heaven
well high above your head;
if you'd only compromise your self
To looking up instead.
...

Mother Nature, Father Time
Listen to your Children's rhyme.
May we all some day retire
And become what we aspire
...
