You see the skull
It symbolize wot we going
Leave behind

You see the spear
It shows that we will fight
For wot we believe in

You see the splintered paddled
It’s that law
That we going represent and take care
The people

And you see that flag
That just shows
Aloha
Goin’ live on…

I imagine paradise
My dreams… Ginormous
As it all Shoots
With such Chi
The only thing I can say
Mean
Cause Bumbye
Get Cracks

Love at first sight

Her eyes batted their lashes
In that ever telling way
That women use to say
“Hello”
His blush grew bright
As he could not find the words
Needed for a man to say
“Hello”
Oh, the folly of our gestures,
Our posture
If only we listened to the
Gentle voice that love spoke
Three words that surpassed a simple Hello
“I love you…”

Going through the motions
So many of us just go
Through the motions
Of life
It’s quite perplexing
If I wasn’t so caught in
The motions of my life
I’d tell you why

The wind like dance
Wit you
You feel um?
Ha, I do
I not trying fo’ diss
I only like you reminisce
On days when you
Once was light, like the wind,
Traveling any kine speed and direction
Sometimes no moa at all
Is funny how only small keeds
Can be lidat all the time
You be lidat now
Ova,
Pau
Peopo goin think
Get something funny kine
With you
Sad, uh
But, eh, maybe time going
Change things
Maybe you’ll start dancing again
Das beauty right there,
Can always change, really can go back to a
Simpler,
Fuller,
Way

The Poet had nothing to say
Divine Inspiration was pau
“Is my work done?”
He asked the sky above
“Has my voyage come to a close?”
He pleaded with the ocean
Just then, a gentle caress of the wind
Snapped him, startled him
Thrust him back!
Back into the moment
He smiled
“I am not to write…”
He belted to the trees
“I have nothing to say…
He happily stomped into the ground
“I was supposed to be listening all along”
He shared to all around

On those nights
I wiped away your tears
You remember those days?
Our love was so new, so incredible

On these nights
I wiped away so many of my tears
My eyes have dried
I remember that time
Our love’s long past

On those nights
It was as if
We were the only two alive
You remember those nights?
Our love was so true, real in every way

On these nights
I feel like this when I’m alone, not lonely, just alone
I remember our time
Your love’s with another, my love lives on

On those nights
That are
Now these nights
I recall, love, lost in a sense
Eternal no less
I’ll remember for all time

The sun kissed reverie
Of palms swaying in the wind
Along bright, white sands
And glistening water, so clean, so pure
No moa…
The sun blares,
The palms shutter,
The sand is blotted with decay,
And the kai, the kai is dark…
Not how
Shouldn’t be lidat
We accept life lidis
And bitch about
A time we miss
Neva goin
Be how was
But can be better dan dis
Time to reminisce
Not so much on the out
But what was in
Cause da ʻĀina
Is a reflection
Of what we hold inside
I ask, I cry
This is not, how we were meant to be alive
