My Will


Lets say I stop writing poems
and walk what I talk for real
no more slick rap
allowing your thoughts
to remain still
just to process many lines
that others attempt to conceal
confident in my steps as I reveal
myself the crest the shield
I'm part indian from the west
that you should consume with prayer
like before a meal
healthy for your mind, body, and soul
without Dr. Phil
you see physically I heal
and cardiac arrest those that steal
self published ownership of my skills
check the appeal
wiping the frowns off grills
George Foreman of my project
too complicated to kill
heart impenitrible like steel
on point as now I am devoted
doing what I say instead or what I write
is my new testament
showing the command to be

My Will

Young, Black and Gifted


Without there being a moral
never-ending story
binding and bounding
not too astounding
skill co-founding
sensitive to light
that's why I only spark
when its dark rounding
shell after shell off
mic cocked back for lyrical pounding
side of the head cheek jaw grounding
mc's in their own blood drowning
underestimated AHK after seeing AHK
how you sounding
you see I even pray
before I spray
just to have accurate aim
when I'm dumping 62 names
causing the forfeiting of 62 games
time is like my mind
always moving being a shame
if I missed the train
screws too tight
to be loosened or changed
permanent never rearranged
not in the contract
or on my birth certificate
born to die or perish
please understand its
the only way to overcome
my own sickness being

My Love - updated



The equation of the physical
Very indivisible
My nation your nation
Setting my mind free
With a little anticipation
Little concern now
about how you allow me
to rest with you
as I admit right now
I really miss you
You are so soft
I thank the Lord
for bringing me Joy
as I thank you for the care
you have shown me
like a parent to a little boy
right now I for you
will continue to cry
as these days
forever pass us by
sometimes while you
look into my eyes
I think about
a possible marriage
that will never die
the attention span
always being high
I believe in my right
to express my life
to someone so precious to me
the devoted hugs
controlled kisses
passionate body rubs
really enjoy writing poems
just to share with you
because you are my inspiration

My Love

How I Do It


Begin from your start
as I stand and listen
you see I remember
the anxiety up until the ending
I knew I slept with you too fast
alone but not lonely
I gasp then I laugh
this is not the first time
I've met a recycled piece of glass
like you
your type I see through
I guess you were
to distracted to have a clue
I hustle I smuggle that shame shame
with the no name
got you all confused platonically
poetically ebonically
gave you the line
line by line
to busy brushing your hair
stressing the back of your mind
where you should be studying
instead of trying to over associate
with too many men buddying
mentally cuddling
I know the drill
because uncensored stupid is

How I Do It

Believe in Faith?



This is the day that
the Lord has made
and I know he's watching
so I best behave

you see every step I take
I breath to feel safe
inhaling and exhaling life
His love, which will always
be the opposite of hate

As I dream awake
understand my worldly place
the opportunities and chances
to express myself center stage

Never timid bashful or shy
impacting lives without rage
I attempt not try...But wait
Do you meaning you beyond
the definition of fate

Believe in Faith?

Our Unique Styles



The Wind as it blew
directed me to the scent of you
candles and roses
with a hint of Vicki's Perfume

Aroma of the imprisonment
of my daydream afternoons
loving the feeling
of my heart upon your
sunshine smile as it blooms

Securing the nature of my root
glass room mist purifying
my soul beneath your moon now
with the power to see tomorrow
and what connects

I Liked That


I was just sitting here
listening to that song
by my man Busta Bus
talking about passing
the courvoisier
it's smooth and shitta
but I'm eccentrica
with my talk
like your walk
instead of the cognac
I want you to pass
that thing below the middle
of your back attached
to your spine girl
you gots that behind
word is born
I feel like I own
3 thirds of the world girl
just thinking about the episode
keeps my hair in curls
unlike the tongue
I used to dive
for your pearls
What!
my God is my
oh Damn!
My mind is all crammed
with the fantasies
of a son of King Solomon
trying to hold my own
like the way I converse
with you on the phone
systematically
I'm one to become
more than prone
to that fly shitta
between your likka likka
drowning and all that
you know I'm not afraid
to go deep like a quaterback
where you can be my
wide receiver
open up that side to you
that comes and goes like pollen
I want you to make
and keep my body throbbing
I like that feeling
because it is appealing
like sexual healing
in and out
out and in
wait, let me start from scratch
you know them marks
you left on my back
girl you know I must admit that

I Liked That

Air in My Lungs to Breathe



Never shall I leave
reasons are not good enough
I will continue to keep my head up
Though my soul still bleeds

While on my way to work
I thought about the things
that are likely to keep my attention
Where you being made happy by me
is more than I should mention

So delicate is my heart
Protected by my mind
so strong to keep me out of harm
Preventing anything from going wrong

You are a good true friend indeed
and because of that
I will not part this relationship
as long as I have

Air in My Lungs to Breathe

The Greatest Love of Charles

A child’s been born
What now
What do we do?
This my first, Oh God!
What do I do?

Still at this moment
I can’t believe my eyes
Secreted by the tears
Of witnessing the birth
Of new life

Unstable the minutes
Less the seconds
I counted until
This new life started
To breathe I counted

Up to ten – matched
That count to the toes
Then to the fingers
Then to the dismay
That his nose
looked like my nose

Immediately I clutched
My heart with my chest
When I was able
to notice the rest

Thank you Lord
for protecting this new life
Aiding its travels
to exist now
outside of my new wife

Looking forward to
the days ahead with
a new Baby Calendar
on the wall
that I will circle with a heart
each day lived to symbolize

The Greatest Love of Charles

The Lamination of Your Trust



I didn't glow until
you started to notice me
anticipating the smile
Followed by your touch

Illuminated in an instance
with flash movements
directed to the soul
The root of your love

Without words to express
the reciprocal
warmth of my breath
Loathing you just because

Which brings me to this question
will you take me as yours
to explore evermore
Now that you know I love you so much?

Waiting patiently as the heart
grows fonder - I ponder
the truth and consideration
of your time before

The Lamination of Your Trust

Me and the Microphone






The battle of the two
the left and then the right
may I have some space to ignite
then light

up the set with that flame
you know the name Trigga Trife
who snatched the mic
across from Howard University that night

from wack ass mc's sounding ripe
nervous with the flow
jumping around acting hype

Until I mentioned Bed Stuy
Letting them know where from, was I
then represented like Iron Mike
with no need for a fight

30 seconds later
dropped a few bars before my flight
Back to BK
leaving with the crowd
saying that niggaz was tight

Onyx "Slam"


The answers formed in the fashion
Of the first question I began asking
When I was unsure of satisfaction
Where do I find this type of reaction
May it be a reflective kind of action
You see I’m confused beyond lacking
The intelligence to comprehend statements retracting
Specifity of my Mental Multi-tasking
Quick curbing the enthusiastic for laughing
Conversations serious with the God’s everlasting
Righteous enough to save my spiritual compassion
If I had to walk or travel alone

The Whole Truth and Nothing But





"If I only had a mic to record this"

Once upon a time
a muthaphucking period
in my life when I meant
to be deliberate

With the shit I spit
taking the time
in the form of graphics to express
so others can see and hear it

Whether I had to be different
or explicit
I spoke from the soul
knowing that you would get it

To be specific
I'm that kid from the borough
with the bridges
never scared, never hesitant

To represent
the opposite of decadence
my knowledge reigns
beyond the reference

Establishing the median
with the temperance
of 12 apostles
never succumbing to the negative

Standing and shining
manifesting the lessons
demonstrating the realness
less the aggression

I am many men in one
one man from a past of one
who became the one
that accepted what I've become

So you muthaphuckaz
may need to run
and get your guns
or run your funds

Before approaching me
with less than a ton
of what I am bringing
with or with out the singing of

The Whole Truth and Nothing But

I Give My Heart


You're the first thing I think of
Each morning when I rise.
You're the last thing I think of
Each night when I close my eyes.

You're in each thought I have
And every breath I take.
My feelings are growing stronger
With every move I make.

I want to prove I love you
But that's the hardest part.
So, I'm giving all I have to give
To you...

I Give My Heart

Together

Last night I thought about you
And here again
I find myself
Thinking about you
The way your smile reflected my hue
Together we as two
Which someday will equate to one
Like the heavens, earth, moon and sun
I pray to strive for the better of the day
the year, and the eternity just so you
could lie as an infinite soul mate forever
Next to me
Where we can relate,
relax and strive together
As a family
Strong enough to pull the love
Of the world

Together

It was you
who appeared before me
Yo I like how you look
from your hair to your feet

even the now scent of you
is making me weak
from my mind to my heart
straight to my knees

Now look at me whipped
I can't even breathe
at the same time
my heart skips a beat

All in love now
you see I believe
in the you
which is now
apart of me

Questions answered
meaning your love
I stay giving thanks
to my father above

everyday a blessing
I am not looking to rush
focusing once again
on the pen to the pad blush

where forever existent on you
is my crush
knowing that what makes me strong
is your trust

poetically expressing to you
how you mean so much
which makes me really happy
once again about us

How I Do It





From the side I step
only to appear in the center

been the flyest mc in the middle
as far as I can remember

since 9 I was rhyming
posting up like Lou Alcindor

a cannibal on the mic
eating niggas whole no blenda

putting heads to bed
no matter the gender

now you can catch me on tour
making mc's surrender

no matter the weather
I'm still cooler than December

or hotter than a million men marching
with a million hot tempers

so go-on test me if you want
and be the only member

lying in a box no jacket
just a hole in the placenta

I keeps it real doing it big
is always on the agenda

and that's my word
to you niggas sounding sweeter than splenda

fronting like you got skill
on the mic you're useless

due to how you flow and

How I Do It



My rhymes are star studded
diamond cut up

thick like grits with this shit
I dear you to buck up

approaching you upfront
all you rap runner ups

and punks who want to jump up
to get beat down and lumped up

Kings County native you know the name
and how I come up

one by one
starting at the top I numb up

line for line
bar for bar I crunch and munch up

leaving muthaphuckaz all stiff
and backs all hunched up

arms dislocated from sockets
and legs camel clutched up

taking you back to before
in the air there were guns up

Lyrical darts thrown
accurately to stun up

any sucka mc that
failed to sum up

the mic check one two
put the funds up

if you want to battle
with or with out the judges

fronting like you got skill
on the mic you're useless

due to how you flow and

How I Do It

Mind Boggling



Left ventricle
thorough my heart is borough
Brooklyn
where I'm shining without the sun
Today or tomorrow
block after block
walking street after street
chalking dust after ash
talking these philosophies are serious here
wisdom provided by the elder
stalking my every step every thought
New Yorking the right ventricle
passage clear but not enough for
parking unwanted stress here
I'm too quick 52 blocking
zoning in and zoning out
with never a need for sparking
just unlocking and unclogging
the heart through my body
soul, mind and spirit
resulting in you admitting
after reading this
that these thoughts are

Mind Boggling

Your First Kiss

I would like for this poem
to take you back
I would like for it
to take you back to the time
when you first understood
the magic of a kiss
the thinking about who, how,
when and where
and the way it was going
to happen to you
Special as a woman with
these newly found emotions
sweet as the honey dripping
from the hive of your mind
so innocent
so delicate
feeling good about wanting
and needing
passionate affection
thoughts higher than the moon
on a warm summer's night in Cairo
your heart wrapped in
precious gems melted into
a protective sheath
Important is the way
your world will continue
to spend from this point on
for that first touch
of a boys soft hands
and lips upon the soft flesh
of your exterior mouth
will be just enough
for you to trace his face
to a secret place
remember how the pillow
became his first name
followed by the sheets
becoming his full
the way you comforted
your body hoping and wishing
that he will one day
be able to do the same
you admiring your own
techniques on your hands
or with a cousin or girl friend
such a tender young age with
so many questions
hesitant of your approach
to the things that
were important and
also mattered to you the most
lost and frustrated
when the kiss didn't last
longer than you attempted
to hold your breath
helpless and confused
because that young boy
also became aware of
his sexual self which
did not for you and only you exist
setting in now
along with a different attitude
are the first stages of your ability
to become jealous - cute
left with only the memory
of the way you first felt
after experiencing

Your First Kiss

When We First Met






When We First Met

The truth guided my intentions
to be honest and sincere

convicted of falling in love
at first sight after you appeared

my heart paused while thoughts
guided me to the future years

of holding you tightly
romantically and secure beyond compare

my world stopped spinning
because of how strongly you cared

the soul of my envy conquered
my minds jealousy ridding me of all fears

upside down you turned me
inside out you shared

confidence became the royalty
of your beautiful smile held dear

I knew this was the start of
life unknown to man unprepared

breathless, motionless within
this moment I wish to stay right here

our eyes meeting divine
while our dreams beyond the heavens stared

holding on to the righteousness
of our joyous tears

looking past the sky now
you and I now

believing
and achieving and also
succeeding

our goals one in the same
so vivid so clear

similar to the time

I Call It Hardcore



Rocking more than old people
to the Commodores
I take mines still
since my first piece of candy
boosted from my first store
the law can't stop me
I'm more than more
fantastic four personality assured
self intuitive self explored
move mad fluid flow wetter
than any sea shore
I fuck mermaids
wearing fur shades
drinking her aids
hold up not her aids
spitting up that raw
intellect never seen before
keep it close keep it warm
that Henney securing my pores
smell the skill for real
no time for intoxication
to busy hammering like Thor
less the blonde hair - I saw
one way in and chose
the same way out
where some call it insane while

I Call It Hardcore

Forever You'll Remember Me

On the contrary
the belief extinct to the worlds
I feel that
inside deep
no hesitation options exhausted
straight - the point now afraid
to be shown plus proven
the ocean is calling me
my brain waves need company
the water within my body - my planet
priceless I share my face like it's on money
making sense without change
I find funny
my abstract thoughts my currency
I call Charles so while in your possession
make sure you spend wisely and hard
tax free no charge
like an unlimited amount on a credit card
smiles like an investment shown
to secure your eyes with a memory
forever yours so

Forever You'll Remember Me

How Un-united I Stand

Respect
too young to understand
the compound word
which means to command
and that's what I do
Damn!
You see all I was trying to do
was rep for my fam
then these lifeless internet sams
want to test a man
whose been on the block before
niggaz held guns in their hands
so talk about shooting
and be banned
from your own land
check for the slam
AHKMEL just punctured your pulmonary gland
aggressively bleeding
forgot to plan
around my day and

Internal Freedom - revised

And from the bottom
to the central core of my heart,
you are what
makes me smile for every season,
you are the reason
the sun comes out after a rainy day,
My soul embraces my compassion for you
as you express your satisfaction with me,
My chest gets tight
as I close my eyes and think about
holding you tight in my arms,
Sirens sound across the Atlantic as completeness
I have found in you,
My fingers are numb as I type you each poem,
until you graciously respond
while calling me on the phone,
your voice I identify,
your breath - for it,
I would die just because
of the amount of gratitude
and appreciation I have inside
allowing you to witness my

Internal Freedom

Hear, Read or Understand

This poem is a new one that expresses my Level

There are some that have
encountered my heart
and many that have witnessed my soul
and the way it speaks
very fluently about love,
maintaining full control
and understanding about
relating unconditionally
with appreciation being my only honest agenda.

I can write unprepared
willing to share
or I can write for myself
to inspire myself
to never have fear
of judgment or criticism
From open Mic to and intimate one on one
this is who I am remaining the only one
that can write without a block
speak confidently with out a lock
on the verbal magnitude I aim to release
poetic piece after poetic piece,
marveling constantly at my on talent endlessly.
I've heard some call it being stuck on myself
or the big C word.
That negativity keeps me on point
because those are the people with no idea
of who they are.
I've been doing this with more focus
on expressing the entity
of my own human than any other
successful or non successful Poet.
(I've done the research
it's not all about the name
or depth or the recognition.
I've found that it's about the honesty
of believing you can succeed
at the speed of light
without aiming to impress no one but yourself

My knowledge is Universally Born
as my name became of your attention

A . H . K . M . E . L .
P . H . A . R . O . D .

I believe you know what the name spells out
all in all my words don't cost anything
for you to

Hear, Read or Understand

The Woman In You

These words and the way I express
my mind so openly defined
Equal to the world and how it
moves underneath your feet
Gently the steps I hear
allows me to breath very easy
… please believe me
Can’t do anything
but think about you
Oh…. How…. to become
more true and remarkable
For your voice to keep me
returning to you is as easy as the poems
I compose just to take your mind
on a beautiful cruise around my heart
that I know you will never abuse
Comfort beyond the meaning
I’m dreaming heavily to bring you
Day in and day out yearning for you
Demonstrating my focus on achieving you
With my compassion held for you unconditional
Devoted by my mind body and soul
Vowing to you only my love
…as I never shall be found
guilty of deceiving you
while these words are righteously
placed in order just for

The Woman In You

I Miss You

The times we spend
together are very special to me
Ever so pleasant
is your company
Countless memories
still yet to happen
Each moment cherished
beginning with
the first glance into your eyes
ending by
a sweet sincere see you later...

I Miss You

Untitled 05/15/06 - (The Truth Series)

Generically yours
this is what I want to express,
but can`t because
reality is the death of men with feelings
as temperance is the eternity
of the spirit
once it is found by the soul
and the elegance of rain
pouring upon me
during a moonlight stroll

Give Up - (The Truth Series)

I tried to
be here for you
but you disregarded me

I tried to
wait patiently
but you just ignored me

I tried to
sweep you from off of your feet
but you weighed too heavy
on my nerves

where I am now left to wonder
if I should just

Give Up

For You and Only You

Excuse me beautiful
may I add to what makes
me want to hold your shadow
tight under the pale moonlight
and make you different
kind of secure
my name is For in which
yours can be Ever
where when we are with each other
our time Away from another will
be longed for eternity
or in other words Forever
in spite of my moon and your sun
not being aligned
we can still imagine ourselves blind
with our time in turned will be

For You and Only You

Making You Turn Red



I would love to exist within a red room
with red candles and red smoke
with red velvet and red silk drapes
draped from the red walls, chilling
with you sipping on Remy Red or red wine
wearing a red smoking jacket as you are in
a fitted red see through dress
hugging your soft beautiful flesh..
complementing your red thong
and red perky nipples I am touching you
with my red hands kissing your neck
with my red lips, slowly licking on you
with my red tounge..biting you and
delighting you until you start to see red
Directing your red hands that you have been
caught with to my swollen red head you''ll
caress before slowly slipping out of your
red dress and red pumps..Before I start

Freestyling 67



In the beginning
less the ending
I captured the speed
of sound and became
one voice, stimulating
my decision, my choice
to grab the microphone
with force leaving the weak
behind and dry
unlike a cake that’s moist
engineering my history
to be heard smooth
like a Rolls Royce
with plenty of power
steering as I foist
my skills upon those
having a hard time to rejoice
instead doubting me
like I’m in a band with some boys
I am more like a one-man team
with a one man dream
leaping in one single bound
your low self-esteem
and I’m out

Hello it's Me - 01/20/06
