Intro In the shadowed attic of old grief, I found those frantic, handwritten letters—blasphemies scratched out by a younger me during a season of unrelenting calamity, heart emptied by pain and the lack of any real help. One page, opened on a whim, carried the desperate lie: “cursing God will fill your pocket with freedom…
-
Intro Sometimes I think about why the urge to create feels so natural, almost unavoidable, as if it was placed inside us long before we understood what art even was. It makes me wonder if creativity is part of the reason we exist at all—like God invented us so imagination could move through human hands…

Intro In an age where virtue is performed beneath studio lights and righteousness is rehearsed for applause, the loudest saviors often cast the longest shadows. History has shown how public personas can crumble — from the fall of R. Kelly to the scandal surrounding Jeffrey Epstein — revealing how influence and power can conceal disturbing…

IntroThis poem presents a sharp and cautionary portrait of a woman whose outer beauty conceals inner danger. By comparing her appearance to Stacy Dash, the speaker immediately establishes an image of striking physical attractiveness, only to contrast it with the darker image of a “fallen angel.” Throughout the poem, religious symbolism—halos, horns, heaven—blends with modern…

IntroPurpose and destiny have always guided me, embodied in figures like Tia and Tamara, whose presence kept me steady and focused on achieving higher victories. Their influence lit a path toward growth and fulfillment, shaping my choices and ambitions. Yet, life’s temptations came in the form of vices resembling Samara, pulling me toward darker paths…

IntroThrough powerful biblical symbolism and vivid, confrontational imagery, the poem examines the complex tension between femininity, masculinity, and authority. By invoking Moses parting the Red Sea as a metaphor for spiritual revelation and division, the speaker establishes a dramatic tone that carries throughout the piece. The contrasting portrayals of “quiet and feminine grace” against loud,…

Intro“King Solomon Size” evokes the legendary magnitude of love and desire associated with Solomon, using his grand reputation as a metaphor for vast romantic ambition.

IntroHit The Gas… is a vivid meditation on impatience, desire, and the fragile illusion of escaping time. Through striking imagery of shattered hourglasses, blood-soaked moons, and frozen skies, the poem captures a desperate attempt to outrun mortality in pursuit of love.

We live in a time where love is labelled toxic while lust is celebrated as liberation, and that contradiction should trouble us. Love asks for discipline, sacrifice, and commitment — qualities that build stability — yet it is side-lined and neglected, waiting on the bench of modern culture. Lust, on the other hand, is praised,…

Description
This poem offers a contemplative glimpse into the poet’s mind as they engage in everyday activities. The poem begins with the poet reflecting deeply while eating a slice of pizza, contemplating their spiritual fate. They reject the idea of going to hell and express a preference for going to heaven, demonstrating reverence and seeking forgiveness for past disobedience.
The poem then shifts to a modern scene of scrolling on a mobile device, which leaves the poet feeling mentally numb and paralyzed. This contrast between spiritual contemplation and digital distraction highlights the poet’s struggle to balance the two.
In the midst of this mental chaos, the poet reaffirms their faith, declaring that their devotion to Allah will never lead them to commit acts of terror in the name of religion. They speak of women in heaven as a divine surprise, indicating their respect for the spiritual rewards promised by their faith.
The poem concludes with the poet seeking solitude, sipping grape juice and reflecting on life. This final image ties together the themes of contemplation, spirituality, and the search for personal peace amid the distractions of modern life.

Description
This poem reflects a powerful metaphor for life, where the speaker’s journey mirrors Bruce Lee’s Game of Death—a symbolic ascent to power and control, only to face a sudden, devastating fall. The “forbidden mansion” and the throne symbolize the speaker’s elevated status or achievements, acquired through perseverance, but also under constant threat from those seeking to take it away. The mansion’s levels represent challenges or stages of personal or external struggles.
The “yellow medallion” is a striking image, symbolizing both power and vulnerability, with its brightness likened to the sun. This may represent the speaker’s identity or achievements that are visible and radiant but also open to attack. The throne signifies the speaker’s position of power, which must be guarded from those who ascend through the mansion, symbolizing rivals or life’s challenges.
The poem takes a dramatic turn when a mysterious figure appears and, with a snap of fingers, overturns the speaker’s reality, flipping the mansion upside down and destroying what had been built. The fall from grace is inevitable, with everything the speaker has worked for “shattering to the ground.” The mysterious figure embodies fate, unforeseen events, or internal conflict—forces that easily dismantle what once seemed invincible.
The whispered line at the end, “I am satisfied watching your games and party die,” evokes a sense of bitter defeat, as if the speaker’s struggles and achievements were part of a larger, uncontrollable game. This final line hints at the futility of clinging to power and control, reminding the reader that even the most glorious positions can crumble at the hands of fate or time.

Description
This poem captures a sense of internal conflict, blending themes of speed, creativity, and spiritual turmoil. The speaker identifies as a “speed demon,” suggesting a feeling of uncontrollable energy or compulsion, especially in the act of writing or creating (“these poetic artistry’s / evoke fast as lightning”). The imagery of lightning conveys a sudden, intense force driving the speaker to produce their art quickly, almost recklessly.
The “demonic source with rage” hints at a darker, perhaps destructive, inspiration. It suggests that the speaker’s creativity comes from a place of anger or inner torment. The plea for divine forgiveness indicates awareness of the destructive nature of this force, implying a moral or spiritual struggle.
The poem then shifts toward existential contemplation. The speaker wonders if death, personified as a seductive figure (“her cherries D’amour”), might offer release from this internal battle. The phrase “snatches my soul” suggests both fear and resignation, as if the only way to stop the creative chaos is through ceasing to exist.
Overall, the poem evokes a powerful tension between creation and destruction, spirituality and darkness, and the speaker’s attempt to reconcile their drive with their desire for peace.
