  • PIGEON

    by KYLA

    Flying through the crisp air,
    Then landing gently on the ground.

    Bobbing its head back and forth,
    It dances to the rhythm of the car’s beeps.

    Pecking the ground, then spreading
    its wings to fly.

    The pigeon is charmed by the bell
    that rings from the church.

    The pigeon glides above the cars
    like Icarus, not too low and not too high.

    The pigeon floats in the light breeze,
    catching the clouds in it’s wings.

    The pigeon glides to the ground
    and pecks.

    It finds a graceful grain
    of rice upon the sidewalk.

    The pigeon gulps the rice,
    Its stomach expands.

    Then BOOM! It explodes
    into smoke and grey
    feathers.

    I sit on the bench nearby,
    drinking my cup of Coca Cola;
    Then suddenly, I explode into laughter.

    Like the pigeon explodes when it eats the
    rice.

    As I can disappear in an instant, the
    pigeon can disappear into smoke.

    Yo. Chillin with the bros ya’ll.
    Exclusive Ink got swag ya’ll. Oh,
    You know the beezniz. Like
    A waft on a crystalime. OMG Like
    The chime on it’s Twilight. Be gone!

    I lyk it coo and crunchy. Like ice!
    Shawty and I are bros, lyk
    The LOL and Aerpostale clothes.

    Nothin’ milky about this rap.

    Sweetness on total steroids!
    My kittens munchin catnip,
    My bros high on swag. My
    Man gone. Yolo mad. We’re Charlie’s
    Angels in bootylicious free throws,
    Like the badonkadonk in sausage smokes.

    Oh, this phantom of shadowy disguise, never knowin’ when
    A funeral is to arise. Like a performed
    Laundry mat to promote Obama
    In a tremulous stage to put down
    Osama. Glistening like the bling on a full moon. To see the light again would
    Be too soon. Mindblown like a
    Poor aristocrat. It would be an enchantment to be that.
    I don’t need motivation cause all this grace is just imagination.

  • REBORN NATURE

    by KYLA

    The dead sparrow in its gray topcoat of feathers, lies on the light gray, cemented road. The song from its beak silenced. Its shiny, silky wings unstretched. Its wide-open eyes staring without seeing the sky above. Its soul seeking the white, fluffy clouds and golden gates; leading to a castle made of dazzling sunflowers.

    What saint or angel carries the small sparrow’s soul? Most of all, what burdens its heart of crystal gold? The weight of the heart clings to the concrete, while the soul so lite floats away; seeking a destination where death is a beginning.

    In eternal paradise, the once dead sparrow flies freely; like a dove, here for peace and love. We once sang, “His eye is on the sparrow, so I know he watches me.” Through the sparrow’s light blue eyes, he searches for his lost heavenly halo.

    His spirit wings fly above the cotton candy clouds, the promise of the halo in a distant glow.

    The heavenly sparrow soars wide and long, searching for his lost song. Inside the glow an angel speaks, “Head back to the living you have more songs to tweet.”  The risen sparrow, now a golden dove; sings sweet music from above.

    White wings skim green trees, the reincarnated bird rides the breeze. Its beauty strikes the dark world causing the golden sun to shine, and he sees another dove on the horizon line. His lost song is found in his new true love. Wing to wing fly the two love doves. In their new fond love they find the once lost halo. In their newfound love they find the meaning of rebirth.

    Baptized in the love song they both sing, their heavenly rebirth lights the world. We should learn from the dove the true meaning of love. That is why doves represent peace, so that all terrible violence will cease; and that’s why love is peaceful and sweet, love conquers anger in one heartbeat.

    Through their heartbeats and their true love, they sing their enchanted melody from above. And that’s the meaning of the dove, for one’s power and another’s True Love.

  • JUST ONE NIGHT

    by KYLA

    Let me have just one chance, I promise I won’t rob thee.
    With your eyes so bright and blue like the open sea.
    Let me have just one chance, I promise I won’t lie.
    In fact if I lift you off your feet you will surely fly.
    Let me have just one chance, I promise you will see
    That if you let me have this night you’ll fall in love with me.
