LADY LIBERTY


I don't think I've ever felt so small
As when the Towers began to fall
And death rode roughshod through canyons tall
In sight of Lady Liberty

My birth took place not far from there
Where freedom flavored carefree air
Breathed deep by diverse colors where
They frolicked for Lady Liberty

What reaosn for to cause such pain
To make the steel and concrete rain
Upon the streets its dark murrain
Offending Lady Liberty

Twas hatred cloaked in Allah's name
That scorched the innocent in evil's flame
And bathed the righteous in eternal shame
O see her weep, Lady Liberty

Her torch aloft her beacon bright
Still proclaiming through the night
That terror does not have the might
To bring down Lady Liberty

Make tall the towers again to see
The American brand of majesty
Our Brotherhood from sea to sea
You've taught us well Lady Liberty!

The Scent of a Man

As I step into the elevator my mind goes back in time to a place when you were mine.
Flashbacks of late night talks and witty remarks
put a smile on my face even distance cannot erase.
Your voice haunts me as the scent overpowers my body,
I try not to think of you.
But the force of the fragrance will not let me forget
the mix of memories elation, frustration pleasure and pain.
The smell that was once masculine and musky
strong and sexy now makes me sick.
The cheap odor is more than I can take
I step off the elevator and come face to face
with the coward you now make.
The smell of your cologne reminds me of days gone by.
