Close call
Almost felt the
Steel.
A date on a cold slab
That’s final
So close
Too close to
Disappear
It has been a hard day’s night
Still moving
Barely grooving
When is the other shoe going to drop
Will it be my own undoing
Or the free will of a cop
That brings me to that grand day
That last day
When it all dissipates
And disappears
Continue reading #Disappear- A Poem
Greenlight
Speeding through
Loving you
Smiling while we ride
Glide
Before the Ides
Of March
All through the night
Traffic is light
Cruise control
While I maneuver
The curves
So right
So special
Just a vessel
For the fruit
To grow
Can’t
Stop
Won’t
Stop
Blow
So
Now that we’re naked
What shall we do
Run back to the forest
Taste the honeydew
When we
Touch
When we
Love.
Play with the button
Shift it
Make it
Go faster
Take the HOV lane
All the way
Downtown
Like a G.
You got the greenlight
Breeze on through the toll
Just me and you
No special arrangements
Don’t make it complicated.
Just ride
Roll
Dip low
Then come back down slow.
It’s all entertainment
That’s all I’m saying.
-Zam Zhinga
Just a little something I cam up with while SLEEPY and READy for bed….
Let’s MELT into the NIGHT with RO JAMES’ ‘Permission’….
Bubble
Coming from down under
You thought it was rain
But it was just the
Thunder
Rising ever so slowly
My rise to the top is evident
Even though you treat me poorly
Fahrenheit rises
The ones keeping you under
Are your ‘friends’ that really are
Despising
You. Continue reading #Bubble: A Poem

TANTRUM
Inner turmoil BUBBLING, festering
My hate for you is blinded by my
Guilt for what I did
I have to learn
I have to move past
The thing I did
To forgive myself
To live again
To move
On.
Anger is what I feel for so long, festering
You hold onto the pain
You say you forgave
But if you did
You would not
Still make me
Pay.
For the WRONG that I did
I am sorry
But the consequences since
Have all been so DIRE.
I am in the PRISON
That I made for myself
Seething.
Evolving into HATE
Until the seams rip
Like Incredible
And it boils into one
Big
Tantrum.
I push, you pull
You control
I Abide
But no more
The tables will turn
I can no longer
Go on this way
This ends
It stops today
It has to
The Fridays
The tumultuous
The Fridays
The walks
The talks
All of the guilt
It goes away
All before that
One last
Tantrum
The day the walls
All fall
My wrongs were wrong
But I can not pay for
The mistake for the rest of
My life
Otherwise
I may as well
Be in the prison
You made for me.
The fever
The fire
The brimstone
All come before the fall.
Kicking and screaming
Going down in one last fit
One last
Tantrum.
The curse is BROKEN.
-Zam Zhinga
Vague
In the distance I hear a sound
I’m hypervigilant now
But per the usual.
I jump to my feet,
Startled.
A loafer
Squatting in the cozy cave
That is not my own.
The sound, is it coming closer?
Awakened from my slumber
Still dazed.
Did it gather me
Memory of what happened next so very
Vague.
It’s a daily struggle
I think too much
Therefore
I sleep less
Lie awake more
Then crash
It’s so sad
And reckless
So bad
Yet
Thrilling.
Is the farce believed
Or does they players know the story
You try to hide?
Who are you and are you okay?
Your answers don’t make sense
Your clarity so
Vague.
Are you a main character or are you
Mainly backstage?
Do tell
And in time…
The pain will lessen
The school of thought you tried to teach,
Will be your own nightly lesson.
A refuge from the absurd
A nest for the bird
A lecture for the nerd
But still foggy
Still so
Vague.
Spinning out of control
Losing the grips on the handlebars
And tumbling down
On the mean concrete
Rock bottom
Is near.
The card are falling
And the day to face all your fears
I’m afraid, is near.
The fallout will be severe.
-Zam Zhinga
My P
Glimmer
1975.
A race began..
From then it was a journey
Did you know
Then what you know now?
No.
But the race was on
And the obstacles would be many.
Forever chasing
Excelling sometimes stumbling
Falling even Continue reading #Glimmer: A Poem [details]
Morning comes to soon
The light chases out the shadows of yesterday
Or did it?
One got away and looms over your head
It’s time to wake up
You gotta gotta get up
Every toss and turn takes away from the time
You need it like wine
The elixir of the time
Caffinated bliss
Walking in and out
Its a hit or miss
Two pumps, 1 shot
And then the foam
Froth
On top
Power on the bottom
Now you gotta gotta get up
And go. Continue reading #Froth- A Poem
