My place of origin is St. Lucia, but residing in Toronto since 1988 - With a Bachelor of Adult Education Degree.
I am a devoted follower of Christ, and writer.
WHEN NATURAL MAN SERVE AS OUR DAILY BREAD/
WE BELIEVE THAT LIFE IS FULFILLED/
LOVE WHISPERS FILLS OUR HEAD/
EMOTIONS CHANGE AND TURN LIKE A WINDMILL/
WHEN NATURAL MAN SERVE AS OUR DAILY BREAD/
WE BECOME FOOLISH AS THE BRIDE WHO FORGOT OIL AND NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO WED/
SUDDENLY WE ARE LEFT LONELY TO SLEEP IN A COLD BED
LONELY NIGHTS ONCE TERRORIZED ME/
THE NIGHT MY LOVER WALKED AWAY/
CHANGED ME FROM WHOM I USED TO BE/
BUT HAD HE DECIDED TO STAY/
I'D BE STEALING LATE NIGHT KISSES WITH SIN/
I'D CONTINUE TO FIGHT WITH EVIL AND WATCH HIM WIN/
MORNINGS I'D WAKE UP WITH SWOLLEN EYES/
CONTINUE TO CLOTH MYSELF WITH MASK OF THE DAY/
TRYING TO ERASE DARK CIRCLES WITH IN THE COMFORT OF COLD ICE/
IT WOULDN'T STOP THE PAIN/
I'D BEEN LIKE THE LAMB THAT WAS SLAIN/
TRYING TO AVOID GREETINGS IN THE ELEVATOR/
STILL WANTING TO SEE THE MAN THAT WAS THE TRAITOR/
HE BECAME THE CART I RODE TO THE HIGHRISE/
MY FALL AND FAILURE MADE ME WISE/
HAD HE DECIDED TO STAY/
I'D BE STEALING LATE NIGHT KISSES WITH SIN
WHAT DO I CARE ABOUT PHARASEES/
NO OTHER SEES WHAT MY EYES SEES/
NO ONE CAN SHUT ME UP WITH SILENT ANGER/
OR FORCE ME TO DETOUR FROM THE KINGDOM INTO DANGER/
NO OTHER MAN KNOWS WHAT MY SPIRIT KNOWS\
NOR DO I CARE TO DISPUTE WITH THOSE WHO CLAIM TO HAVE PHD OR CALL THEMSELVES PROS/
NO OTHER HEART FEELS WHAT MY HEART FEELS /
NO ONE IS AROUND WHEN THE OMNIPOTENT RETURNS TO ME WHAT ANOTHER MAN STEALS/
NO ONE IS THERE TO TESTIFY AGAINST MY TESTIMONY
FOR I, MYSELF AND THEE ARE ONE IN HARMONY
WHAT DO I CARE
OH HOLY RAIN COME DOWN/
WASH OFF THE DEBRIS IN OUR BRAINS/
THIS SINFUL WORLD WE CAN'T CONTAIN/
WE HEAR THE HEART OF THUNDER BEAT/
THERE IS MORE SORROW, MORE VOICES WEEP/
THE STORM RAGES, THE DAY IS DEEM/
A CRY FOR MANKIND TO REDEEM/
LIGHTENING STRIKE, PORTRAIT OF THE WORLD ON FILM/
OH HOLY RAIN COME DOWN/
EXTINGUISH FOREST FIRES TO END FIREFIGHTERS' EXHAUSTION/
LET THE WORK OF YOUR HANDS LECTURE THOSE WHO FROWN/
FOR ALL EYES TO WITNESS/
FOR MEN TO LEARN LESSONS ON CLEANING UP WORLDLY MESS/
AND ALL EARS WILL HEAR THE VOICE OF BABES AS THEY REVEAL NEW VISIONS/
AND TO END ALL RELIGIOUS CONFUSION
DON'T WANT TO SIT ON THE BACK STAGE CHAIR/
DON'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT WHAT OTHERS HEAR/
TODAY FOR ME, IT IS PENTECOST/
DRAWN BACK TO THE WELL/
I WAS A LAMB ONCE LOST/
EVERYDAY THE PRINCE SENDS HIS WORD/
HIS INEXPLICABLE MESSAGES DROVE INTO MY HEART LIKE A SWORD/
DON'T WANT TO BE ANOTHER PHARASEE/
SO I PRAYED THAT MY EYES WILL SEE WHAT HIS EYES SEES/
THE HOLY SPIRIT'S FIRE SENDS ELECTRICAL SHOCKS/
AND I AM AWAKEN BY THE VOICE OF THE LIVING ROCK/
TODAY FOR ME, IT IS PENTECOST/
THE PRINCE POURED IN ME THE LANGUAGE HE SPOKE ON THE CROSS
THE HOLY SPIRIT INSIDE ME REJOICE/
TO BE ABLE TO LISTEN ONCE AGAIN TO GOD'S VOICE
King of King awaits the King of Pop/
His best tunes will be sang in heaven/
Collaborating with the Living Rock/
He can't be nullified and he can't be mock/
His music will be embrace by angels/
And he will no longer be depleted by earthly leeches and blood suckers/
He will no more be splattered by rumours like a bug man repels/
The money mongers are now fools for mockers/
Many magnify their image using his name/
But sooner or later their image will all melt in flame/
For the King of Pop is jamming with the Living Rock/
And it don't matter what trash man talk
You opened my eyes/
By the power of the blood of Jesus/
You lifted up my veil/
I witnessed my resurrection/
I have gained insight, strength and a whole new body/
Each day reminds me of the difficult waters my ship sailed/
My body made straight from its deformity/
No other man shall ever intimidate me/
I am reformed by great fate/
This world can no longer keep me in bondage/
Standing on a new frontier, my hands are clapsed/
To symbolize, you are the only one to fear/
Even my weak frame, a strong lion cannot tear/
Your protection is an impenetrable shield that surrounds me/
Victory and bravery is rooted because of faith and belief/
I no longer worry about the enemy/
I am a whole new entity/
This realm that I occupy is not for just anybody
SUNDAY MORNINGS, CHURCH BELL RINGS/
DEADS INSIDE WEEPS/
THE LORD OF HOMES, AND LORD OF LANDS GAIN RICHES/
THE LORD OF LORDS, LORD OF HEAVEN AND EARTH SATISFY THE WORLD ON TWO FISHES/
WHERE CAN WE GO
SUNDAY MORNINGS, SURMONS RESURRECT EVIL BODIES/
CHURCH CHOIRS BRING TEMPORARY JOY
TEMPORARY LORDS AND MASTERS CELEBRATE THEIR REIN/
BUT THE EVERLASTING LORD SEIZE THEIR JOY/
DARKNESS DREW A VEIL WITH HEAVY RAIN/
SUNDAY MORNING, INSIDE THE CATHEDRAL IS JUSTICE/
INSIDE THE CATHEDRAL IS EVERLASTING PEACE/
THE VOICE OF HEAVEN GIVE CONSOLATION TO EMPTY SOULS/
(WHERE CAN WE GO)
I'M GONNA GET MY HEART BROKEN/
I'M GONNA FEEL FORSAKEN/
I JUST GOT TO KEEP ON PRAYING/
JUST CAN'T KEEP ON DOUBTING/
I'M GONNA GET SOME JABBING/
I'M GONNA GET SOME STABBING/
I JUST GOT TO KEEP ON GOING/
JUST CAN'T KEEP ON FALLING/
I'LL KEEP MY EYES OPEN/
I'LL KEEP ON WALKING TO THE CROSS/
(WHO CAN STOP ME)
I can feel your watchful eyes close/
My endurance prevail/
Somehow I know the fragance of your wounds is the scent of rose/
I know you are there to watch my midnight oil burn/
You are there when I have no where to turn/
Somehow I know that I am not alone/
And I will continue living without a clone/
I know your touch is forever/
And my midnight oil will continue to burn
When there is moaning of an unknown/
And unknown reason for tears that keeps on falling/
And guilt of wonder provokes\
Are the tears, the tears of hypocracy/
Or simply an act of dilinquency/
When tears keeps the eyes burning/
And the wheel of misery keeps on turning/
When the unknown corpse brings no memory/
And unknown vision is that of no body/
And guilt of wonder invokes a guilty spirit/
When tears has no memory, no merit/
And can't restrain it from falling/
The wheel of misery keeps on turning
Turn East, there is no road/
Turn South, there is no road/
Turn West, there is no road/
Turn North, there is no road/
There is no wealth to hoard/
There is no hope for tomorrow/
There is no salve for sorrow/
All the eyes see is no direction/
All the heart feels is frustration/
When will the pain end/
When will the eyes see the orange flame devour the fiend/
Would there be enough peace to hear the inner voice/
Would there be enough love to embrace and rejoice/
Would the Spirit last long enough to bear/
Would there be strength to persevere/
Knowing that Jesus is near/
Even when there is no road
Why reinforce the nail in the tree/
Why carry tattoo of the devil on your tail bone/
And the cry of death is heard on your trombone/
Why won't you let Christ be/
Why write dissertation to dispel truth/
Lets hope your discovery is sweet dessert to your teeth/
Lets hope blaspheme turns to poems of love/
And a good news letter clutched in the beak of a dove/
Why won't you let Christ be/
And there would be no more moaning/
Under the sycamore tree
Why the fear of articulation/
Why does the tongue die in strangulation/
Why the tight knot of the tongue\
Why does fear prolongue/
Why can't I finish my narration/
Why mustn't I fill the air with sweet oblation/
Why must words get swallowed/
Am I not just as free as the sparrow /
Why do I care if I go wrong/
Haven't I sang the redemption song/
Why mustn't I be as calm as the dead in a casket/
Am I not chosen and saved like Moses,
Floating down the Jordan River in a basket/
(I've been purified in Holy Fire)
Paper is the platform on which I stand/
How sweet to hold a pen in my hand/
My mind compete with no man/
For I am a one man's fan/
The message fall from Heaven's Gate/
If smeared with water, it cannot fade/
What is written on this simple page/
Never grow old or age/
When I listen to the heartbeat of my mind/
Images form into words combine/
Visions come loud and clear/
And my pen captures it as it appears/
Devouring words like a hookworm/
Pen and paper is my platform
When I look into Your eyes/
I see the mirror of my soul/
I never grow old/
And I never growl/
When I hear Your whispers in the night/
I know the giant inside is slain/
I have won the fight/
I see Your great light/
When I hear voices of sorrow and pain lament/
I know terror passed over my house tonight
Because I repent/
Now I can rejoice holding this great pen/
I see freedom on the other side/
(When I Look Into Your Eyes)
The Glow in the eyes of the dark/
Watched ripples in the waterfalls/
Waited for time to soon hit the mark/
Now I shall wait/
Wait for the axe to fall/
No heavy sound could startle me/
The axe shall be far away/
Embedded in a cushion of a pile of hay/
Angels glow in the dark you see/
I shall sit in the light/
Under the chandelier of yah-weh/
Ain't no man present to use me as bait or prey/
For the eyes of the dark look upon me/
(BECAUSE OF YOU)
If man could stop dreams from coming/
And the tower of disappointments from rising/
Wouldn't there be a day without hurt/
To fall asleep with fear of not being alert/
If man could stop dreams that brings confusion/
And demand the heavens clear vision/
Wouldn't there be signs where danger lurks/
And all who hear God's name would smirk/
If man could stop dreams from becoming real/
And knows how to stop disaster by breaking the seal/
Wouldn't it please man to say there is no God/
And even deny the existence of David with a simple powerful rod/
If man could stop dreams of dream/
And stop floods and running streams/
Would there be impossibilities and diseases/
Wouldn't man demand the storm to be still/
And cause all pain to cease/
If man could stop the rain from falling/
And stop all tears and there would be no more crying/
Wouldn't there be only sorcerers, sinners and murderers/
And a caved in world to swallow the whole lot/
Man never seize to follow Sodom and Gomorrah/
To aim for greater pasture like Lot/
Reaching with out stretched arms for impossible mountains afar/
All they got is scientific thrill/
(WHAT IS MAN) But a Breath in His Nostrils
God of All
My God is the God of all/
He keeps me standing tall/
My God is engraved on the tablet of my heart/
He welcomes me in his arms and I shall never depart/
My God is my god forever/
He is my master/
Yes, He is my God, God of the Rivers/
He controls my thoughts and actions/
Yes, He keeps me from worldly distractions/
Yes, I meditate on His words and I devour/
Yes, I became pregnant surrounded with Scriptures/
Now I’m immersed, for I am a true believer/
May God live in me forever
