how many more times do we say their names?
how many more times do we make signs and march? how many more times do we hashtag Black lives matter? how many more times do we just send thoughts and prayers? how many more times will we hear the murderers say they were in fear for their life when the video clearly shows otherwise? how many more times will cops lie and concoct a narrative to defend their actions then get put on paid administrative leave? how many more times will the media portray the victims as being responsible for their own death? how many more times will the jury find Blackness so threatening that they justify the aggression of violent murderers, and the verdict comes back not guilty? how many more times will we go back to living our lives until the next person of color is murdered because their skin is weaponized, and we post another rip? how many more times? because i’m tired...

This sensual poem was sent to me recently by a fellow poet, and he requested I post it to my blog with the author as simply “Leo Unknown.” Once again a whole day passes by
Why, I don't know how days like this is sealed with such a kiss that makes the mind reminisce always to miss WHEN WE... So my mental clear with no fear no worry, that she'll be in a hurry to come... None other I'm expecting, the only one I'm sex texting, resting for her presence. Her essence of desire takes me higher than you'll ever know WHEN WE... This time, our body rhythms with tempo rhymes developed unconditional grinds of Love Making filling our minds... Signs of the Times with a Leo... It was almost like making a movie line, WHEN WE... As we were in control of each others position, my tension pushing slow at start, I'm hearing her moan from the heart. No need to trade places but to feel all the spaces untouched at this moment were WHEN WE... Focused for her to release first, my thirst to taste her stream of passion was made long lastin' never with her asking. Casting my push after push after push as she push and she roll, roll and she push... WHEN WE... As I caress her center from behind with my hand and my center enter continuous circular motions, arouses her ocean waves higher and higher, Causing me to embrace her body's stability next to mine... As the music plays and we listen in the background, we use it too without saying changing the position with on going kissing of her cherished treasure. On top to be body to body with finesse is the best part about this night of caress...Time had no measure while the sex pleasure increased and released sexual satisfaction to both our needs. This is WHEN WE... am i a writer
