Time is ticking

TIC TOC ,,,,,,,,,,,,,TIC TOC


Time is ticking on the clock

Two by two, as we march in Noah’s replicated ark

Two by two’s he’s taking them,,,,,,,,,,,, do u know where u are?

He says he’s not gonna divide them by,,,,,,,just any,,, religion

But to remind u, he’s making a ,,,,,,,,,,,,two by two ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,decision

Let me dissect u mentally with out any incisions

U see miracles happens with just one, true to life vision

Hard times on earth aint nothing compares

to what that man have right up them stairs

Live your life to the fullest and go farther than the mesosphere

Send me back a meteorite, so I can tell them, hell yeah, “U WAS HERE!”

Celebrate your life because there’s an after party afterwards

Where all sins are erased, feeling free, singing “im like a bird”

Wash away grudges along with the dirty clothes

Put aside things that glitters and watch how GOD will make you naturally glow

Tell your enemies that you love them, and give them a peck on the cheeks

Always keep your love wide open, to everyone that’s in need

Don’t just wish on your dreams, go catch them and Hold them close to your soul

And watch it dissolve into pure gold, once u have reached ur goal

It’s priceless to live a life filled with untainted love

I rather head down that road, to avoid falling short of

I’m soo in love and I will not get out

I’m soo in love and I can’t get out
U got me higher than cloud nine, beyond any doubt
My senses becomes numb, each time in your presence
With ur graceful hugs, u squeeze the true beauty right out of my essence
If I tell u I don’t think of u each day, then its worth a thousand lies
I must not be ashamed to show u my love, if I am, then I must be chastised
Ur face is the last I see, in my dreams
Beholding quixotic themes
That replays memories,
Turn into realities
I’ve found my treasure, finally I’ve caught my breathe
No longer living with bitterness, feels good to get it off of my chest
Lead me into the wilderness, as I put my assurance in you
U have bought life into me, more like a marvelous breakthrough
I want to sleep saturated in your magnificent passion
Hoping and wishing that it ill forever be everlasting
In the break of dawn I run through the fog, thinking I’ve just seen ur face  
Then I caught my self, embracing an empty space
I knew u was here, cuz ur breathe blew me a breeze
There u go again with endearing surprises u always conceal up ur sleeve
I’m soo in love and I don’t desire to get out
I rather reside in pure ecstasy, and allow our love to sprout
U have become my stars, my moon, and the navy blue drape in my midnight skies
U guide me thru that left turn road that was less traveled by
I will always follow u as if im breaking down the flesh of ur heels with the tip of my feet
I have become ur eternal shadow, my god,,,,, u make me feel so complete
I’m soo in love and I will not get out
U got me higher than cloud nine, beyond any doubt

Local poet Will “Da Real One” gunned down in North Miami
















Spoken-word poet Willie Lee Bell, a.k.a. Will Da Real One, gunned down in front of Miami poetry cafe

A well-known and respected spoken word poet was gunned down early Sunday as he was closing up his Miami area coffee shop and poetry lounge, cops said.
Willie Lee Bell Jr., 47, who performed as "Will Da Real One," was shot several times at around 12:40 a.m. in the parking lot of the Literary Café and Poetry Lounge in North Miami.
Several patrons who were outside the café at the time told cops that Bell was walking to his car when a vehicle pulled up next to him and a man in the passenger seat opened fire.
Bell died at the scene, emergency responders said.
Police were stumped for a motive because the killers didn't take any money or jewelry off Bell.
The killing shocked members of the spoken-word community, who said Bell was an advocate for abused woman and promoted a "drama-free" policy at the lounge, which he opened in 2003.
WATCH WILL DA REAL ONE PEFORM BELOW
"Everyone loved this man. He did not deserve to die like this," a friend outside the lounge on Sunday afternoon told NBC Miami.
"There are young ladies here who will tell you how he empowered the women," another woman added. "He empowered you, let you know you were beautiful, you were worthy, he did a lot of fund-raising for battered women."
Bell appeared for two seasons on HBO's "Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry." He won poetry slams across the country and was featured on albums by Miami rappers Rick Ross and Pitbull.
In 2005, the Miami New Times named him the city's best new poet.
"I just got a knack for reaching people," Bell told the New Times after he was honored. "I got a message that I'm trying to distribute, a piece of myself I'm trying to share."

Early Sunday an unknown gunmen shot and killed local poet Will “Da Real One" Bell outside the North Miami cafe where he had plied his trade for years and given a venue to countless other wordsmiths.


Bell, 47, whose performances have been featured on HBO’s Def Poetry Jam, had just closed his business, the Literary Cafe and Poetry Lounge on 933 NE 125th Street, at about 12:40 a.m. and was walking to his car nearby when another car occupied by at least two men pulled up beside him, said Lt. Neal Cuevas of the North Miami Police Department.

A gunman leapt out from the passenger seat and fired multiple times at Bell, who died on the scene, Cuevas said. The men then fled in the car, but did not take any of Bell’s possessions, which included cash and jewelry.
Several witnesses, who had been inside The Literary Cafe earlier that night, offered police differing descriptions of the suspects’ car color as light and dark, with a spoiler on the rear.
Police ask that anyone with information on this crime contact the North Miami Police Department 305-891-8111 or Crimestoppers at 305-371-TIPS.


I’ve known Will since 2003 when he use to performed at “Troys” on
Broward Blvd Fort Lauderdale
fl. I was a shy upcoming poet, still is. Will was a very sentimental person. He broke me out of my shyness and use to call me up on stage to do stand up open mic, unexpectedly. He use to always tell me in due time, once u get use to the stage, the audience, everything will fall in place naturally. It feels good to be in control. Will was very humorous, witty and generous. I followed him to all locations that he went. Because he made everyone feels like family. Will never denied his stage for NO ONE. Anyone who came out to Literary Café was welcomed. I’m going to miss him, so much. I know literary café ill not be the same without his physical presence there. But he will be missed. i know he would of still want me to still come and show support. I going to miss when he use to say “Bring all ur home girls, friends, family, and cousins.” Im going to miss his face book comments, his daily life advices, his jokes, his poems.
Will just wanna let u know I love, u will always be missed and never forgotten-----------luv ILLUSTRIOUS DA POET

Press fast forward, fuk it, to the next episode
I wouldn’t even spend a dime on it, even bootleg downloads
These streets is like an infected lymph node
That’s waiting to be explode
Only Sundays is when EVERY hethen just wanna be  in CHURCH MODE
How do u suppose,,,,
For real, be real with ur self
And,,, Ladies,,, get ur crown from shelf
And tell that man that u sure do love thyself
More than love itself
 I mean isn’t it suppose to be like that? What else
If u dint agree, u can use a little self help
Ladies should lead, and her man shall follow
And tend to ur needs, like an Oracle of Apollo
His love should never make ur heart feel hallow
Or like, when ur mind wonders, like, “where’s Geraldo?”
 
I love like the world, so enormous and limitless
It use to feel ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, like
Like priceless childhood fantasies
Like intoxicated daydreams’
Like a fairytale’s prettiest theme
Giggling while sharing a scoop of ice-cream
So I guess life aint sometimes what it seem to be
And sometimes shit aint what ur heart foresees
 I guess some people can’t detect QUALITY like DirecTV

Lust just walked out MY Door.
My man says I aint got much time for him
He say he’s running off with that lil cute slim Jim
He say What we have here, it aint nothing to think
It was More like a fling, cuz his smile just made my lil girl wink
He say I could stay, so he can leave to his destiny
He’s probably think im broken, but im kinda happy that he’s the one to leave
His lust was the only thing, that drove me ecstatic
I was bound to fall out of lust with, shit, that there is automatic
I cant let  him see me, I cant let him see the glares in my eyes
My dimples piercing in, oh I cant let him see the smirk in my smile
Although his dick was so traumatizing, but his mind went only a square mile, and that was not hypnotizing’
A man can be like a book, and take you different places
Make you feel good like a book, and give you different tastes
But if his lust just go as far as the bedroom, that sure make me feel like my time has wasted
Instead of giving it away, I feel like my was time taken
I like it when a man makes me wet, from the words he whispers in my ears
Or when he let our minds just jet, from this world that’s  bringing me tears
You see, I know that im not that type of a regular girl
I just love when a sensible, astounding man, that speak realis’m, shit that just rock my world
I just like it when you can speak your mind and he’s on the same exact level
Everybody needs to let their mind feast, for a healthy relationship that’ll show be helpful
He say hes running off and taken off my shackles
He say he still love me, and he don’t want any hassles
You simple minded nigga, hurry up and be on your merry way, Simple minded nigga, you just don’t know that you’re one dimensional
Got a mind of nuts and bolts, baby, you’re not communicational
Everybody says that im too  difficult cuz my Level of Intelligence, Is so impossible
So Implausible,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
                Too imaginable
                I just like it a lil sweet, and a lil bit comprehendible
He say What we have here, it aint nothing to think
It was More like a fling, cuz his smile just made my lil girl wink
He say I could stay, so he can leave to his destiny
He’s probably think im broken, but im kinda happy that he’s the one to leave,,,,,,

Oooh the scent of his cologne

Oooh the scent of his cologne
Use to Makes my backbone, tremble like a trombone
While I use to catch the shivers in my jawbone
When he use to Whisper in my ears, better yet in monotone,
Use to make my heart always feel like its in a mist of a cyclone
He use to restrain my dignity better yet my whole world
He use to make my secrets unfurl
And made my mind whirl
He made it known that im not  just his only girl,
But, his , SHINY BLACK PEARL
But, his , SHINY BLACK PEARL
He use to stroke my natural hair
While I rest my daily stress on the armchair
With my boy shorts and T shirt on the bed just ready to wear
He use to have my whole night prepared
Made my pillows extra fluffy just to keep away all the nightmares
He use to Makes me play dress up which always caused us to go nowhere
He use to make my moon shine, bright , like a bemas headlight,
To guide me by after the stormy night
He was far from a neophyte
He made me to become a parasite
I started needing him  more, he became part of my appetite
Besides, his bark was absolutely not worse than his sweet bite
Within the twinkle in his eyes
I use to  see myself thru the apple of his eye
I use to  burned myself by the luv from his heart that feel so, electrified
And his luv, I swear, I still couldn’t even identify
He use to show me and Tell me how deep is my hot spot
We use to bet if he can  hit it in 2 units per each kilowatt
He use to stroke my essences and pull out al the knots
He use to get me hot , hot like a teapot
He use to blow me kisses so I can chase it thru the dandelion meadows
And underneath the sun
We use to play hit or misses so we can interlace it while u roar like a lion in its own shadows
And underneath the sun
He made me shine like a lost diamond in the rubble
I swear he made me feel gullible like a floating bubble

untitled,

Use my blood as ink to write u this letter

Use my eyes so I can see u better

Use my feet to guide me thru this weather

Use my ears so I can hear u better

He says im going thru sum changes

When in fact changes done went and came

He said there’s gonna be sum down ranges, and test ranges

When indeed it was ,,,,,a totally different ball game

I sometimes searched for him, thru the pages of my book

I sometimes read his verses; too see if I would really get hooked

He tested me thru the hardest times, and proves to me my greatest strength

Bad times turned into sweet rhymes, just by me loving GOD in greatest lengths

Real friends lasted, Fake friends faded

God love always outlast it, he always sends me blessings as if im D” WADE’IN it

----------this one is not done, just a thought

I was tired of giving up, and now givin up is the last I have to give
Life has maybe become too intense, but I swear I will outlive
And with his life he breathe, I promise I will never misgive
It is my duty, to raise the best qualities in a real man, so parts of me can relive
Note to my son “Never fight too eva loose
Neva chase the seduced reused
Always count how much givings u do not how good u can do  
So ur blessings can come in two’s--------------illustrious 2011
