Banana pudding and cool jazz will always soothe a
broken heart.Jazz makes me think of blues which
reminds me that I have the
winter blues and wish for warm weather
Telepathy is writing
And just because it's purple, dosen't mean it tastes
like "grape"!
And just because it's blue dosen't mean it's
the sea and just because I write about
colors dosen't mean it's deep.
Banana pudding made with love
shared with love man I have
found a new love.
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
And there's no place like
The Nuyorican Poets Cafe
W/ Theatre, downhome dining, Jazz and Banana Puddin' ala Rome
Come here uncover and rediscover things you thought
were lost or misplaced
There're potentials and possibilities, old
friends, new friends, laughter and love
all in this place
It's so much fun - Comes love nothing
can be done
Try to remember and if you remember
then I can only give you
Afro Bleu and innocent rememberingss
of mothers, all of whom I am like
and love with a fierceness
that gives birth to hope
Follow, Follow, Follow, Fall Low
Fall Low.
Muchas Gracias!
I'm surrounded by beautiful spirit, energy and passion!
Banana Puddin', Puddin', keeping it
light & fluffy!
Before the new year, all was red
walkin' down Ave C - And to my surprise
some Artist starts yellin at me. He said
I ain't trippin - but you as fine as could
be - He said come up to my edible paint loft
and you can have a J.C.T. I said
What's that? He said - Well come up and
see.- So JCT. mmm ... So we was jokin' and
chokin' & smokin' - livin'
the American dream - the paint tasted good - cherries and
berries, and lots of
blue, purple, and red cream. I said where's the yellow?
Where's the light and sweet -
and mellow - So he said; Well I just can't find any banana's in Aiphabet town.
Some hip Cafe got a guy - he got all
the bananas in town. I'll take you to the place - It's cool and mellow - The bananas
are sweet smooth & extra yellow. But - watch out. If you dance - don't lose your
footin' - Cause all you'll be attending to all night is eatin' banana puddin'
BANANA PUDDIN' JAZZ JAM POEM..........
DECEMBER 1, 2007

Sweet, sticky, banana pudding.....
Seguins flicker wishes of youth
Old friends and new friends coming together
in an emergent stream of conciousness
Smooth thump of the bass soothes us
History, future, present, all combined to
form art.
Love is Music - fast, slow, deep, high, low
Love is music _
Home is warmth
sittin around a table
With people you can call
your own
Crush crush to the bone the soul
pops up from that steaming smoking
heart from the center of the world
where the real is from the peel
versed....
Now is the time skin time
and ozone juice up to the source
where the banana is God - dess & God
together fingering around the universe
Muhammad lives his happiness through
an unearthed virgin still birth, what becomes
of of one's words when perched alone
in a stone thrown of a vibrant wordless curse.
I came to see and be amongst the few: But my
heart, my heart felt awaken. Alive. I wanted to move...
I felt vibrant
Tonight is a night of something that maybe right. Tonight
I may see the light, but until I see that light I know this
may be that night.
If this is the place to come
or should I just run
but if I go inside it might be fun
I go inside no where to hide
walking in stride to find
A place of euphoria where love and life is
pouring from
Life is a gift to create joy
Living is to be
happiness is what you must achieve
Peace is how you leave
Love is what we weave
We weave a spell till we leave
Traces behind us in the city
Where we all are together
No matter what the weather
which brings thoughts of a better day.
.... and the thoughts of reality were chased away
by the dawn of a daydream....
All you can be is yourself, put your fears up on the self
and step into your light to take flight and
you might just enjoy the beauty of sight.
Thank goodness for banana pudding and not
carrot cake.
Fear is what I came here with,
after banana pudding there is no fear!
Banana Pudding, sweet like life is,
as rich and abundant as love, as creative
and communal as a great group of friends
and musicians.
