In The Night

Walk in the dark, listen

To the sounds of the Ghetto

Cool cats rustling thru weeds stalking

Rats, dodging dogs and coons

Crashes. .kids playing, laughter

Flashing spinners and systems bumping

Lyrical flava beef rhythm rhyme soul

Doors open, folks on stoops yo

The smell of cooking wafting

Past my Afrocentric nostrils//:

Yams pork chops gravy biscuits

Grass jumping up from the sidewalk

Voices in the nite, words spill

From lovable lips against my ear

My hand in yours

My kiss upon your neck and cheek

Taste sampling your buttery Negritude

Our feets quik on the street…a gunning

Engine, wind in your locks rocking

Your MOTION your voice your smell

Your soul, your heart to steal.

I heard your heart, my head in

Your lap, i heard your heart my heart

In your hand I heard your heart

And smelt the pungent desires

Beckoning from your Manhood.

Beating thumping pounding pulsing

Your heart like a drum in my ear

Beating pounding pounding beating like

THE THUNDERING RHYTHMS OF NUBIA

We made love to that metronome

Black and bluesy and hip and cool.

Your heart your heart your heart

Like the flo in the Ghetto.

Mines to give, yours to steal
