Things are slowly starting to return to normal after a extremely busy month & a half. It was such a time crunch... I had so many deadlines last month & the two most important things in my life actually fell to the back burner a bit. Now I gotta find the time to focus & follow up on them. I got some important paperwork to look at & most likely respond to but when I get home i just feel like vegetating... No Bueno!

My personal life has basically taken a huge backseat to my professional life at the moment. I had to update & renew my professional licenses and even gain a few that I didn't have before all before the end of last month. It was hectic and a little be nerve racking. One thing is for sure, now that I successfully passed the requirements needed, I'm a lot more confident about the others that will come up soon as well.

Now I need to switch gears a bit and focus on the home turf. I really want to find a new place soon for a small change in scenery. I gotta follow up with my insurance & find a way to save some money. I need to get with my accountant & figure some things out as well. One thing is for sure I can't sit on my laurels too long or all this will pass me by & I will loose the chance at many opportunities that are still in front of me right now.

Even with all of the things currently on my plate & the things that I've accomplished thus far, I have to keep God as my center. Like others, I tend to get a bit off centered and attempt to accomplish this all on my own. I need to take more than just a moment to stop & refocus my efforts on the Lord and not my day to day grind.

When I see you laying there sleeping
I believe in innocence again
Fell asleep so heavenly, not a peep
Barley the length of the pillow you extend
Fell asleep by the window
Where the cool air seeps in
I understand at this moment
How important life is
How much of a gift you are
Made to open my eyes to the truth
No longer closed minded, blinded
I'm captivated by your youth
Epiphany strikes once in a lifetime
So Today's my right time...

Beautiful brown round
Shaped like hour glass figurines
Soft like unbleached flower
Cool to the touch
Like down filled pillows
My cinnamon dream
Tasty textures like whip cream
So golden brown, unbound
My diamond in the rough
I polish you with no fuse
With ease and gentle sea breeze
I bring you to your knees
Effervescent essence, my caramel dream
My angel food cake or better my Devil food dream
A gentle embrace or passion filled collisions
Chocolate chip, honey dip, my tasty vision

We danced slow in silence
Warm, closely embraced
A dim lit room
In step, heart beats in unison
Souls splash melodically
I knew at this moment
Love renewed, subdued
Passionate heat transfers through finger tips
Intimate embrace, no need for a kiss
See the Devil lit the room
To ruin this chance
Slow dancing, no burning room tonight
Flames ignite, passion
Extinguishing broken promises
Love reigns again
Now & forever more

You look at me with loving bright eyes,
Bubbly brown, you say their black like mine,
You live life by colors not socially inclined,
Unworldly...

You make me who i am,
I strive & hold pride, just for you,
Take shots & report to a job I hate,
Just to put food on your plate...

Used to hold you daily,
But I see you every week,
Seclude myself just to be there for you,
No one means more to Key,
I'm indebted to thee...

Gaining tolerance to this potion
Intolerant to the notion
A new day is approaching
Far gaping landscapes
Mountains in the distance
Questioning my existence
Lost for a moment in an instant
What is this?
Seconds to minutes
Minutes to moments
Moments to hours
Time passes yet I stand still
Still in awe
Close my eyes to capture the vision
Like track meets & African beats
My heart races... no finish line in sight
My soul takes flight, Ill fated no doubt
My life like taxied runways
Circular motions & undecided choices
My even flows clogged like porcelain bathtubs
And worthless back rubs for a hamstring pull
It's my heart that needs love, fool

If I sit here silently
Is my presence felt
When I lay it on the table
Are the cards dealt
I'm closer to you than most
Strapped tight like a belt

Non-dairy so no milk spilt
No use crying cuz this game don't change
Switching lanes in my new Range
Bypassing, full mettle, gassing

Pretty girls to the left so I'm showing my azz and
Contemplating my next move, existence fading

Pull the visor low so not to loose sight
Cuz these chicks I ain't fading
My mission is more boss
No chance for a loss

Grinding, tryina find a new light and
Incapable of loosing my sight
I pause for the Street Light
Paid my fair so I hoped in

No Grey Goose, liquor ain't never been my best friend
Clean & sober like the Lord Jehovah
Right now I bet you wish he'd know ya!

Walking a thin line
Promoting a man's grind
Hoping I ain't too late for the Lords plate
From sin to heaven & back again
I've learned my lesson

So this worldly life I ain't stressin....

Right now I'm in rewind for a moment
I love my life for a moment
On the verge of a wife at the moment
Slow motion, life ain't trife for a moment

My baby's happy in this moment
Don't miss her daddy at the moment
Don't cry when I'm away at the moment
Cuz she know I'll be back in a moment

I'm so relaxed at the moment
Cuz life is grand at the moment
Don't worry bout gas at the moment
Don't show my ass at the moment

I'm so so blessed at the moment
She knows I'm the best at this moment
I often jest at this moment
Dressed in Sunday best at the moment

No fears at all in this moment
I give my all at this moment
Life ain't so small at the moment

I found my Chi & I hone it!

The month of June was an odd teaser for the beginning of summer. I don't think we saw a high more than 80 degrees & usually below 75 all month. Well, this past weekend I realized again how hot it gets here close to my job. I believe the high was like 95 degrees. Someone told me it was even 106 in the SFV. I'm missing the South Bay something terrible. I have a strong idea that in the next 6 months I'm gonna move back there or somewhere in between there & my job. Just the transition from the valley to LAX at 5pm was a difference almost 20 degrees. When I can leave my house & the gauge reads 88 degrees and then when i get down the hill just south of Brentwood and it reads 68 degrees... its time to seriously consider moving! I think the experiment is over now. I did what I needed to do at the time & now that I know the area better I can move a little south of my job & still have no worse of a commute.

Wilshire Dist., South Bay, Brentwood... Here I come!

Noticed you from a short distance
A vision of light in a world of mist
Our eyes met in Heavenly bliss
Approached you and took your hand
Softly like the most gentle kiss
So deep in your eyes i got lost
Unfolding my imagination
Curious questions & silly suggestions
Not wanting to take too much of your time
Expressed desire to continue at another time
Exchanged information to make that connection
Stuck in the moment, I smiled as my vision walked away

For those that thought Michael Jackson invented to Moonwalk! Not to take anything away from the King of Pop... everything he did looked better when he attempted it!!

Its been a while since I shared on here in a while. Sure, I've written a few poems, songs, etc. sparingly over the last year, but no real posts about my thoughts or what's going on with me daily. I really don't have the time at work & haven't decided on a computer for home just yet. Kinda like my last post of these sorts, I'm kind of at a loss for words. I guess because I've been able to put most of my thoughts into a small poem or attempted song, I kind of shied away from expanding much of it into a story. Like before, a lot has happened this year so far... some good, some great and as usual some horrible! One thing for sure is I'm a lot more confident these days & comfortable in my own skin to boot.

Although today I feel a little strange... not just because of today's events, but the events over the last few days. Some are the same old issues, some are similar issues and some, although new, have the same old theme. Either way, I'll keep it moving like I always do. This time, I promise to contribute to this thing more often as I hope to buy a new computer soon.

Heard your heart flutter as I stepped by,
Caught that twinkle in your left eye
With indecision in your right.
Engraved soul stains remain in a moments glance.
The longer I remain you get weaker in your stance.
Momentary euphoria takes hold of ya..... Bask!
Symbiotic exchange now I feel the same,
Engrossed in your essence no way to explain.
Though lost in the moment, I'm now forever changed!
