Pen to Pad
Freedom of Flow
February 18, 2022
The devil is a monster, and a dangerous soul
Uncharted the depths, scared to blow
And know, if you know, you know
Walking aimlessly out the front door
Moving in circles, stuck to the floor
Decisions that keep me coming back for more
Wake me out my dreams, it's 4:44
Penning my desires, freedom of flow
-eloQuint
The King
December 26, 2021
The rise of a King, who came to give us our birthright. To do the things of heaven as if it was on Earth, right? And to think it only took seven, to create both sin and right standing. Fear and peace, the living and the deceased. Pain that's increased the further we move from the grace of your seat. Underestimating how far the West is from the East, keeping secrets close to vest, taming the beast. The innate nature carved into our souls seeking answers from stars and clothes, instead of our savior. Try and escape the narrow path, moving calculated like math, until the aftermath brings us to our knees. We hide and run, just to come back home. We ride the fun, the unknown, claiming those actions put us in the zone. All the while the King is watching from his throne. Keeping tallies and ticks, until repentance burning up like wicks. Undeserving, but there's nothing my God can't fix. With love and no tricks. No strings attached, just answer the call, what he brings in unmatched. The King has risen.
-eloQuint
Unspoken
December 1, 2021
Headaches and decisions
The spirit makes, impactful incisions
Impartial the divisions of heaven and hell
Inertial experiences, It Ain't Hard To Tell
I exhale, knowledge to break the spell
Of the unspoken, to speak on their shell
-eloQuint
Coming Apart
November 18, 2021
Battling the vagaries of life
Every corner sharp as a knife
The edge the sharpest part
Unraveling, coming apart
-eloQuint
Incessant
November 10, 2021
Got the judge, the lawyer, and courts involved
Don't judge, they put the law in her court
Forcing me to scrape and claw, within bounds
Of jumping, sliding, and defending, pounds
And ounces of lies, deceit, and pretending
While I fight, with seemingly, no ending
-eloQuint
Insight
October 20, 2021
Fighting with,
Good and evil, right and wrong,
Challenged with,
Grace and free will, am I weak or strong
Faced with,
Spiritual principalities, my truth my reality
-eloQuint
Hope and Faith
October 6, 2021
Holding my breath, wanting to believe in
A change in heart posture, unbelieving
Reliving what's etched in, hardly conceiving
That it's almost over, 5 years kneading
Forgiveness, peace, and patience into
The recesses of my mind and soul, through
Meditation, prayer, and scriptures
Promising hope and faith, a life mixture
-eloQuint
Not Said
September 28, 2021
What is it with, anxiety?
Enveloping fear that life's our for me
Resulting in actions parallel to anarchy
Arrows fell short of the heart, partially
Cold and cupid, the charts we see
In stress filled arteries, veins, and partly
Alive but half dead, when not okay,
Not often said
-eloQuint
Like Me
September 22, 2021
I love hearing the laughs, seeing the smiles
Of happiness, excitement, joy, the miles
We travel to experience euphoria in trials
The prayer, the submission, walking down aisles
To the throne, the pulpit, the grace filled room
For the undeserving, like me
-eloQuint
New Season
September 14, 2021
Small beginnings, only time will tell
Pitching new innings, down but compelled
To build foundations with bricks and blocks
Fast and curve balls as the hand ticks, tocks
Touching milestones and sliding to victories
Success at home base, racing against the clock
-eloQuint
No Words
September 7, 2021
Superficial words, anxious thoughts
Unasked questions, and unearned love
Masked reactions with naked faces
I can't believe the various spaces
The devalued man, the beloved system
The presence of, the absence in
Dwelling on how the story begin
-eloQuint
Real Change
August 31, 2021
Nobody wants real change,
Just talking, appeasing, limiting range
In cage, mindsets of old, so strange
This change, exposing the deranged,
The lame, those in the same lane
Using us as speed bumps, or hang like cranes
Hooking belt buckles holding the noose
Playing hangman with lives, no truce
Finding balance in life and death, won't lose
-eloQuint
The Fight
August 24, 2021
The devil be tracking, pacing, attacking
The mind while learning and leaning
On cyclical thoughts, actions, and patterns
Thorn leaving me in the dark, no lanterns
To light my path, where's the answers
Searching, reading, praying the cancers
Away, yay or nay, go or stay, the fray
In fighting the fight, or running the play
-eloQuint
Facts
August 17, 2021
Blown off text and unanswered calls
Wanting to be a father, climbing walls
Unjust and spiteful behavior, all
Distaste for past decisions, incisions
To the core, the root of impressions
Only left with lessons and protecting
My name, my love, fearing the projection
Of neglecting, studying words, perfecting
For the day she comes fact checking
-eloQuint
Bound
August 10, 2021
Late posts building from the ground
Up, laying bricks pound by pound
Searching the dark, I go and hound
Opportunities out on the town
Listening to where there's no sound
Creating invisible pathways for the unfound,
Found, and those who are around
Now, my mind feels the most bound
-eloQuint
Lost Words
August 4, 2021
The absence of hope is an abyss
Of fear, anxiety and lack of prayer
And this, sentiment of making a wish
Under notions of breaking through layers
Atmospheres of nay-sayers and haters
But I believe in Him, like making a swish
-eloQuint
The One
July 27, 2021
Poetry is, the apex of art
The beauty in articulating end to start
Penetrating the paper after being vexed
Seems like it's a curse, a hex
Paying for past decisions, detect
Anger and malice, try and redirect
But life can't be undone, I run
To the Son, the author of the sun,
And stars, I stay faithful, to the One
-eloQuint
Familiar
July 20, 2021
Familiar Patterns familiar lies
Familiar feelings familiar why's
Questioning the familiar eyes
That hold the evils that tie
Souls, exposing those which pries
Under skin, I just try and hide
Like holes in my soles, walk with pride
-eloQuint
My Savior
July 13, 2021
Whether standing on the mountain top
Or crouching in the lowest of valleys
God is there, my savior, the unstop-
Pable one granting favor through rallies
And cries on knees fighting op-
Position that lay in wait, in alleys,
Around corners, in dark places that drop
Below the Earth, finding pleasures, sadly
-eloQuint
Clean
July 6, 2021
When trying to find poetic words
I sift through various nouns and verbs
Adjectives that'll show a true directive
Into thought and actions, meditative
Letters that create factions, between
Heart and mind, penning to be seen
Or detail the hidden we swear we wean
Off, praying the paper will make us clean
-eloQuint
Prayer
June 30, 2021
Pressing words, penciled thoughts, the
Raw emotion minced with love,
Adoration, and admiring the glory
Yearning for the truth of freedom
Edifying unknown languages while
Ridiculing evils with help of angels
-eloQuint
Heartbeat
June 22, 2021
What makes your words prominent?
Is it the urgency? Or the immanent
Ways the pen scribbles the page,
Unique displays detailing the imminent,
Whether it be fears or rage, we engage
With life stories, stealing the stage
Believing our cadence to be preeminent,
It's evident, as the heart beats with age
-eloQuint
Ways of Release
June 15, 2021
In what ways do you release?
Thinking on how to put mind at ease
Coping mechanisms?
The mechanics of our isms
Is the height of rise or low of downfall
Comprising ideologies, fears, and all
That encompasses,
Holding compasses trying to find direction
A derelict, dilapidated, need positive action
So, I ask, in what ways do release?
-eloQuint
Just Thoughts
June 8, 2021
While holding pen,
There's an art to splashing the ink
Apart from thrashing the paper
Stabbing periods and crossing t's
Dotting the eyes of the soul
Grasping two points, the heart and mind
Raspy, like the voice from beyond
An invoice of emotions, taking a toll
Chalking cemented notions, unkind
Like hitting gravel in motion, then again
I pick up the pen
-eloQuint
Nightmares
June 1, 2021
Woke up in fear
Breathing heavy, fighting tears
Saw my baby, after some years
And I wasn't in time to save her
She goes farther, the more I come near
I try but my efforts get seared
Burnt by the coals of fire, the anger
From the past that stays present
Even in the future it remains current
-eloQuint
Therapy
May 25, 2021
Back in therapy,
Sans aroma I used to keep me
Level, thoughts staring me
In face further scaring me
To a place of no return, the
Dark pit I settled in turn, terms
Knit in soul hard to unlearn
Paths and passages, the cistern
Of maps ravaging causing concern
Struggling to discern, now I learn,
Back in therapy
-eloQuint
The Three
May 18, 2021
Missing my daughter, her laughter
All I'm missing while listening to pastor
Pray with supplication supplementing
For supper,
Fasting acts of procreation programming
The proper,
Verbiage proving adoration adding and aiming
At the upper,
Rooms for the trinity of divinity
Three with an affinity for peace and serenity
Infinitely,
My Jehovah Jireh and Nissi
-eloQuint
Same Song
May 11, 2021
Investing in myself,
With words from the scripture
Ingesting for my health,
Parables that depict pictures
Ones that enable spiritual wealth,
Stealth, the encryption a mixture
Of Proverbs and Psalms,
Prayers and tears wiped with palms
Layers of fears that keep me from calm
Hoping I'm doing it right, I lean on
Community and others who seem strong
But, all along
Fighting and singing the same song
-eloQuint
The Journey
May 4, 2021
A peace that understands it all
When I focus on God, not appalled
When sins get thrown from wall to wall
This walk into a run, at first a crawl
A marathon, a journey, might trip, might fall
As long as I stay true, answer the call
Of life, amidst the strife I will stand tall
Seeing a victory in faith, the awe
Of the glory, the mercy, the dreams I saw
Promises from the one with holes in paw
-eloQuint
Faith Filled
April 27, 2021
Faith is,
Seeing victories in the dark
Faith goes,
Where the deaf come to hark
Faith sacrifices,
Vices that give the blind a spark
Into the abyss of things hoped for
With prayer, a petition that allures
An unmistakable peace, for sure
-eloQuint
Principalities
April 20, 2021
Lifting weights
Building faith muscles
Exercising in the wait
Strengthening through the tussle
Of spiritual warfare, innate
Dating back to times of fossils,
Castles, and slaves to the hate
While history books claim it's not so
-eloQuint
Predestined
April 13, 2021
God, in your nature of benevolence
Are you privy to all this violence?
Those like me fighting with eloquence
And presence of mind, on the fence
With priorities trying to circumvent
Loss of arteries, in a metaphorical sense
Writing and cracking metacarpals, tense
Cause this our reality, ever since
These predestined fatalities, called sins
-eloQuint
Change Men
April 6, 2021
I feel a plethora of pleasure
In the aura of creativity
Hitting on iniquities that measure
The gall of man, in his sensitivity
Able to find gold without a treasure,
Chest or blueprints tatted on vest
Breaking prisons of the mental, and natural
Fear practical visions of the cage, meant
To disavow my actual engagement
Of the ones who choose to engage with
Tools instead of the brain, change men
To see the sky, wondering where the cage went
-eloQuint
True Essence
March 30, 2021
The true essence of our souls
Is meant for praise and creativity
Inevitably, in ways of objectivity
Speaking on the trues that take tolls
On ones who know and even those
Ignorant to geppetto of compass rose
The reach isn't contingent to who knows
But those most affected are trying to grow
-eloQuint
Permitting
March 23, 2021
Traveling down a familiar road
A path to continue on or fold
A similar lane perplexed, in
Whether to merge switch or when
To slow down maybe revving engine
Banking on fortitude, sans anger at the mention
Of lies, half truths, a malice filled prison
Of mind battling being gas litten
Staying and entertaining, only permitting
A course that proves
Men not allowed to be fathers, without permission
-eloQuint
Expression
March 16, 2021
Thinking on a taco Tuesday
Mixing meat with spices, a way
Of expression
After a session of penning away
Under the scented candles, end the day
In expression
What's etched in will come and stay
If not on knees, face to sky, to pray
With expression
-eloQuint
In My Head
March 9, 2021
Thinking too much
Wondering if I'm not enough
This walk has been tough
Switching gears holding clutch
The past, letting go is tough
With this pen and pad,
I just try and snuff
Writing when I'm mad
With fluff
The sin, and the bad
-eloQuint
For Them
March 2, 2021
It's unfortunate, for them
Having something else on their mind
Good thing you're the only one on mine
Try not to stare but you so fine
Contemplating whether I should wine
And dine, a 10 so you worth the dime
Trying to go the distance, all nine
Quietly reading expressions, like a mime
While they eyeing us the whole time
It's unfortunate, for them
-eloQuint
No Curse
February 23, 2021
Reminiscing on written words
What's missing, smitten absurd
Dialect because I respect
The pen, the paper to reflect
With retrospect to inflect
Emotions filling mental notions
Clashing like waves of oceans
In the midst, no curse no O'Shea
-eloQuint
Letters to...
February 16, 2021
Freedom of mind
Freedom of body
Freedom of spirit
Letters to the free or dumb
We can be more than numb
Wish we were free as the sun
Locking up and killing sons
And daughters we the ones
In search of,
Freedom of mind body and spirit
Letters to those who hear it
-eloQuint
A Soldier
February 9, 2021
Feeling the butterflies
Confronted with severing ties
Or play the hand, see what lies
In the cards, might run, it's hard
To stick it out and stay in the fight
Sick about what I pray on at night
Obey, quickly turn to the light
Exposed like the angel on my right
Shoulder telling me to hold her
Feelings don't make you soft, but a soldier
-eloQuint
The Release
February 2, 2021
In an effort to finding peace
Controlling thoughts, grasping every piece
Of knowledge praying on my knees
To God of the Earth, water, and the trees
Of life, that blow like leaves in the breeze
Unpredictable, the consumption the seize
Of passions done with ease, the release
A love that can never displease
Disappoint, fail, harm, or plead
-eloQuint
Distaste
January 26, 2021
In hopes of reducing patterns
Up late, penning under lanterns
Stuck in space, sitting on Saturn
Debating this great race
Laps at an uncontrollable pace
Areata circles caps my ace,
My crutch, low hiding my face
On apps when all I need is grace
Spinning out lost in the haste
Of life, doing what I distaste
-eloQuint
Thoughts and Actions
January 19, 2021
The effects of our decisions
Knowing the cause of these incisions
Can affect the way we envision
Each other focused on provisions
Or lack thereof, the mission
Break out this mental prison
Hearing words to listen
For healing, through Christian
Principles follow with precision
Praying for my thoughts and actions
-eloQuint
18 Karat
January 12, 2021
The chain carries discrepancies
Wearing pain like ice on knees
A placebo like peace in the trees
More black less white I disagree
Perception is your right, I agree
The inception to aid the fight
Against those who resemble night
Assemble, rioting with the might
Of generations kept from the light
-eloQuint
The Words
January 5, 2021
You are the words you speak
You are the words you listen to
You are the words you read
You are the words that you write
You are the words that ignite
You are the words that plant seed
You are the words this is true
You have the words for what you seek
-eloQuint
Same Plane
December 29, 2020
To some,
Holidays bring out the best
Others,
Stay close to the vest
Ones pleasure is another's pain
Hard to measure, the only aim
For me to learn you,
And you do the same
Whether black white or blue
We living on the same plane
-eloQuint
Finding Time
December 22, 2020
I struggle to find time
Like finding words to rhyme
Boggle thoughts a sign
To get back with God, align
My life with his guidelines
Reading in between the lines
Of the Bible saving lives
Fadeaway starting to deprive
Myself fo the way and the light
-eloQuint
Discourse
December 15, 2020
Life's a battle and a balance
Of love and use of malice
Ability to herd thoughts like cattle
A champion riding the saddle
Of the high horse
The high road on course
To the highest chair, of course
With God, the Bible, a force
Against the evils I've discoursed
-eloQuint
Four Words
December 8, 2020
Driving through the night
Crazy, ideas still bright
Leading the way like headlight
Smart, strong, just might
Revolt systems and start
New prisms set apart
Using music, love, and art
A change, come hark
-eloQuint
Giving Thanks
December 1, 2020
The beauty of family
The ones that help keep sanity
Who we love over self
Giving thanks to top shelf
Mentality, of money and wealth
Spirituality, thanks to most high
Even though I deny
Like Peter I still try
But one day I'll have to explain why
-eloQuint
If We
November 24, 2020
If we knew the future
There wouldn't be faith
If we could change the past
We'll lose lessons in our safe
If we could control the present
A lot less hate, debate, and bait
To lead us away from heaven's gate
-eloQuint
Fear of Self
November 17, 2020
Self doubt
Fear of failure
True motivation killers
In search of clout
Years to compare your
Life looking for fillers
Fake pics with filters
Sticks and stones will pilfer
Dreams, goals, and other pillars
-eloQuint
The Field
November 10, 2020
Beautiful is black
Our culture, we have a knack
For standing in a field of vultures
Who shield fear with their heald
Poachers sent out to kill,
Steal and destroy our will,
Unreal the ploy and feel
The need to alloy like steel
But still, standing like Kings and Queens
Enjoy
-eloQuint
Picture Frame
November 3, 2020
Regardless of the size
Pictures belong in frames
Looking with the scope of our eyes
Inside, we see something to shame
Express with tears and cries
Following the train
Leading to destruction masked with lies
Intentional, like our choice to fly
When we need to create our lane
-eloQuint
Retrospect
October 27, 2020
Fearing the Cat's in the Cradle
Spearing the thought, pick up the ladle
No matter the effort, some still feel a way though
Words scattered on the page, reflect
In hopes to detect, the proper dialect
To speak in retrospect
Pray my words have value and entice respect
-eloQuint
Evident
October 20, 2020
It's evident
In the words and actions
We prevent
Standing on curbs in factions
Scream repent
For the lies and sanctions
I represent
Brothers of now, and the ancients
-eloQuint
The Odds
October 13, 2020
When up against the odds
Will you quit in angst, feeling like a fraud
Or will you swallow your spit amid the pangs
That dig in deep like fangs
The devil listening and he prods
I know I won't fail, amidst the odds
-eloQuint
Convinced
October 6, 2020
Sometimes, life throws wrenches
Fighting back, bows in the trenches
What is this?
An opportunity I can't miss
Growth of the mind, body, and since
Looking for ways to recompense
Feeling overwhelmed standing on the fence
But I know I'm destined for greatness, I'm convinced
-eloQuint
Educate
September 29, 2020
I remember when I learned the trues
Of this world, the various avenues
Forced to travel, or avoid
Our voice void invoking
Pain mixed with anger provoking
Creativity, and iniquities that danger
Self and community, our goal
To accumulate wealth as a whole
Emasculate as they emulate
Educate, because life's at stake
-eloQuint
Truth Is
September 22, 2020
In a room full of people, alone
Just finished a meal, still empty
No appetite can fill the century-
Old famine, as I examine
The penitentiary, the system, every
Prism set to divide and disown
Hard work of MLK, X, Newton
Up against forces akin to Putin,
Nuking,
Efforts tailored to progression
Say stick to juking and percussion
But the truth is, they fear our succession
-eloQuint
Planet, Stars, Moon
September 15, 2020
Feel like my thoughts on a different planet
Indifferent to most, not how I planned it
Penning candid, sentiments
Like camera capturing still pictures
Canvassed on the stars, a fixture
Hanging above the cars, some fail
Cause they seem so far
Or bail in, fear blaming the atmosphere
I look up to the moon as I steer,
Knowing that my time is near
-eloQuint
Many Faces
September 8, 2020
Lives are spent soul searching
For self and partner behind the curtain
Of the future, things seem so uncertain
We vent the hurting
Chase dreams, certain
That the light beams brightly, in mind running from stark places
On the grind, wearing many faces
-eloQuint
​
Unwind
September 1, 2020
Thoughts of an entrepreneur
Freedom of finance and time, a lure
Into the depths of loneliness
Only me and the paper no less
Playing chess
A King feeling like the pawn
Called Urkel but really Stefan
My mind won't settle for the bronze
Unwind, imagining how I won
-eloQuint
And, Or, But
August 25, 2020
Knowing when to speak up
And
Knowing when to listen
Will success ever creep up
Or
Will my dreams go missing
Fear of failure fills my cup
But
How can one compare and measure, my vision
-eloQuint
​
Iniquities
August 18, 2020
I often wonder, will I get the chance to fill in the blanks
Lost time and empty memories unable to share my fatherly amenities.
I often wonder, even after tapping into higher deities and zapping anger with pleasantries,
Will it make up for lost time?
The cost of my iniquities.
-eloQuint
Running
August 11, 2020
Heavy breathing
Feet pounding
Music blasting
Running expounding on thoughts greeted with short-term or everlasting
Steady meeting
Problems found in
The foot falls
-eloQuint
In The Waiting
August 4, 2020
We chase goals
Watch dreams unfold
Defeat strongholds
Form diamonds from coal
​
But, in the waiting
​
Shoulders turn cold
Visions are put in holes
Digging for our untold
Futures that we swear are filled with gold
​
But, in the waiting, will you be the reason your name isn't in bold? They ask you say no the game on hold, pausing on go. In the waiting is where you grow.
-eloQuint
​
Hope
July 28, 2020
Hope for many blessings.
Hope through the stressing.
Hope can be depressing, but
Hope is the best thing.
Hope is constant wrestling.
Hope is character testing.
Hope is wearing a mask or dressing in a cloth of faith addressing the reasons we cope
-eloQuint
Searching For
July 21, 2020
Searching for inspiration, some type of motivation converted into words filled with annotative distillation, finding innovative verbs conversing with raw emotion explaining actions due to situations, in awe of the cycle and its ramifications.
-eloQuint
Blank Canvas
July 14, 2020
A recluse, this ink I use to paint a picture so distinct, that you can go back and link, literature that'll make you think. Human nature to reiterate what was last spoken, we believe a token from mind. Pen thought provoking, words open and raw, the emotions radiating in my paw.
-eloQuint
Full Moon
July 7, 2020
Writing to a full moon, it's light shining brighter than the stars. Just like the night, darkness overwhelming, like the bad over the good, rising in my throat like the sun climbing the night sky. The heat the rage spewing from my mouth denying bouts paving way for more hate. I try and escape, but this comes with the day.
