Black bookA Poem by Water BlakmonIt's hard to throw away the black book, but everyone in it is out of season.Black Book This poem was never about you It's about day dreams & indiscreet offerings The slides of a satin pillow off course
A day break and dark dawn Cheek to cheek we talked And I pleasured to pitch the book Of aquatic crooks that drunk
The mighty juice Salubrious fruits in May Comfortable in cold winters Chivalry in the dark corners
Sounding spruce surrender Serenaded by Soul Childs Miles Davis when you slept Luther's vocal veins
Wept the day's remains in -dross Cancel the camera's karma & can't keep count of the bount Around Winters and down Springs
Abounding in Summer's drought Some how it looks like Winter There that black book remains Can't curse the cold shoulder's chill
Thrills and appeals seem so surreal Especially when the sun Fakes the shiny appeal Makes me think it's not real
Won't melt the snow July you lie I see snowflakes of pride Deal with a paradox
Locked in a box till fall Nah, I blow the dust off My black book En-close your information
Enjoy the rays till My honor calls Checking my complection Feeling the truth
