You are as strong as a peaceful nation
You are as strong as a peaceful nation
Yet you find yourself in argument.
The world will learn to stand in your war.
Little girl. My strong willed daughter
-will you walk with a humble body
to see and to hear others before yourself
Little girl, my daughter
you were born a warrior.
I cannot change your path.
Burn the city and plunder
their dogs into sound
Little girl with the existence
inside of you, born and reborn,
little guru. The world in anger
continues to spawn disparity.
Will you enlace the master in equality
to teach him the answer or will you force him
to drink the aftermath of your slaughter
as he did to your ancestors

About
I am a poet. I am a mother. I am a someone’s wife. I cannot stop writing. I have tried. This is very anti-progressive of me. I will apologize later to my chive plant.
I work at writing but it is not what I call hard. I am a natural. But I don’t just write down whatever and call it something. No. I have pride. I have standards.
I am political and I am popping jokes. They are subtle, often times overlooked, but if you find yourself laughing or crying, you can bet, I’m glad I could assist, reach a dead metaphor out to you.
If you like my words, my poems, share them, print them off. Tape them up. Let me know. If I make a mistake, let me know about that too.
I am trying to be the best piece of U.S.A that I can be. Poetry is my way. Its not medicine and it is not an organic lunch. My poems are hard to swallow. If I offend you, you can bet I am happy about that too, because that means your alive enough and thinking enough to respond. You probably just missed the joke. ( I don’t know anymore than the fools who keep selling out our country or the great ramblers of the past. I don’t know a thing, and my friend, hahahahahahaha neither do you).
I am not a master of poesy. I am twenty-eight. I am a burp. Remember that, remember I am a fool. I am like you.
If you are a writer as well please feel free. Share your lines and advice.
Sometimes people think I am a good writer, and they believe that I have a good sized ego. That is not the case. It is far to big and it thinks it is a bunny. I am sorry for any claptrap or bloated dogs it tries to sell you. I work endlessly at my lines, and want those who I share my life-art to be just as passionate and as eager as me.
I love writing. It is my family history, it began before I had a name. Maybe I was hurt into it. Maybe I hurt easy. Maybe thats why I can’t stop.
I know I won’t even think about it until justice is in the reality of every molecule.
You need someone to write love poems. I know you do. You’re begging for someone just to care, just to give a damn and love.
My poetry is for you.
It is for the lot of you who suffer or love.
It is a reminder to you, that we are in this together and we are alive.
So lets party.
I am nothing but a solitary grain of sand
but with you, I am beach.
(I will keep at least my swimsuit on, no porno here). Who doesn’t love a beach party?
If you would like me to read at a poetry reading email me at a_burie@hotmail.com.

I like where this one’s going, but it feels unfinished.
…born and reborn,
little guru.
This ode is strong, and shouldn’t taper off like it does.
It needs a punch-in-the-gut prayer finish.
…The world in anger
continues to spawn disparity.
And then the last lines fall kind of flat.
They shout rewrite me! or at least continue the thought through to WHY the master must answer to new paradigms.
I digggit!
