We are Poesy Shines a Buffalo ny based ensemble that fuses the sounds of the African Diaspora with poetry that stirs the soul.

what a wondrous meal
a rose sandwich with a nicely
baked
black bread
buttered and buttered and buttered
fried
pig skins
fried chicken
and cheesy things
go tell of the rotel
tell that the steaks
were
high
and it had burnt ends
it's okay, it's okay
it's okay
everything
was
just
fine

I am working on my 3rd book of poetry, the second one just launched last month but with me poetry never seems to stop. This one is a set of poems offered as a Memoir, or as i am seeing a term called Poemoir.

no hurry
in this, expanding of
this
thing
this love
no hurry, no haste,
no stressing in our moments
staying soft
so soft
in this glow, that seems to move
at
the speed of the infinite
we are lovers of flowers
and laughter
replete with blackness and indigeneity
we are dancers in a sweet dream

What if we fought our Social Justice work through the expansion of love instead of access and growth of power? What if we stopped pursuing power like the oppressors?
What if love were our center instead of power? What if we fought with love which is a tool the oppressor cannot access nor replicate?

Poesy Shines is a nostalgic experience for adults seeking to skip the club scene for a melodious tour of the African diaspora. Blues, gospel, jazz, rock and reggae are interlaced beautifully in each performance and then kissed with soul-stirring poetry. Atria Shinette was first inspired to develop a poetry-set-to-music production when she played classical piano amongst Zydeco and Southern Soul storytellers in south Louisiana. Drummer Aaron Palmer taught himself to play drums as a child in Jamaica and has toured internationally over the last 35 years. Aaron and bassist Efferin Fuse became acquainted through their church. Efferin was born in Florida but grew up in Buffalo playing gospel music and hip hop. Jake Jurewicz is the group’s lead guitarist and saxophonist. He received formal training in jazz guitar and audio engineering at Capital University in Columbus, Ohio. His volunteer work with PUSH Buffalo exposed him to the revolutionary poetry of Dr. Majadi Baruti. Dr. Baruti’s first musical influence was his great-grandfather, Delta Blues legend Johnny Shines. These dynamic artisans are dedicated to authentic musicianship, community activism, and the spoken word.

I am unable to help
myself
...intoxicated my darling,
the fortunate
thing
is that you are not toxic to me,
the unfortunate
thing is that I can't get enough of you.
It could be indeed your lips
and the taste of wine therein
it could be the inhaling of your passion
and the gentle high

Yes, my Fiance' did this all the time, just as a friend, it was so kind.
She also once sent me a Fruit Basket done like a Bouqet. This is your friend so it doesn't have to mean anything weird, it is a sweet gesture.
