The nature of energy
Einstein said energy can't be created or destroyed. That it is an immutable unchangeable fact. It is there.
While i agree that he is correct in his assessment of the nature of energy, and my knowledge of what Einstein said is secondhand , I feel that I should add something to this assessment of the nature of energy.
When it comes to the energy that fuels us, and when you break it down to a molecular level that is us and everything else, you might not be able to change it or destroy, or create it, you can certainly use it. You can also squander it.
and you can disregard and not use it and lose touch with it.
I believe that the body is basically a biological machine with certain basic needs to operate.
If biological then you're talking about water, light, food, and sleep, but it also runs on the energy that is at the molecular core of everything.
This is where the will to feed the body machine comes from. This is the well that is deeper than the physical being can produce.
It is a well in the sense that a water well in the ground fills up only because it taps into the aquifer that flows beneath the surface.
The pool is massive and the well is just the tap.
So if my personal well is a tap into an ocean of energy, then as long as my tap remains open and goes deep enough, I will never run out of energy.
The more I use, the deeper I go, endless supply.
So here I am on another late night ramble. Up late at night after working all day. Get up early and do it all again.
Everybody says I'll crash and burn if I keep living this way.
But the years fly by and I keep rolling on. Working till they run me off, then staying up late to write a song.
Sure I like my speed. Sure I like to fly. Hell yeah I like my weed!
If I'm awake then I'm probably high.
But everything is relative. It's not like I'm stumbling around.
I'm just learning how to go down deep, way past the surface of my well.
I burn it at both ends. I love to fire it up. You become more flexible, the more you bend.

Hard Core Opinion & Channel Share
I'm busy building myself into a new direction (for me) of video poetry, think still images with a reading and intended background direction. Anyhow this is my first. I'd love the opinions of those who do voice poetry, I'd love to know if this crap or stands a chance. Also I started a youtube channel for this purpose, but have no idea how to find others who do the same, so I'd appreciate if you posted a channel link so I can follow you and build a li'l DU community of youtube poets.

Also what category do you use on Youtube for poetry? I used blogs & entertainment as I couldn't find anything similar to poetry?

Thanks for the insights and comments peepol!

"Ya Know It Really Is ! (Ingland’s Still A Bitch)" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 21/7/2019

Ya Know It REALLY IS ... !!!
England’s STILL A BITCH ... !!!

 
Linton’s Words of Scripture ...
Were Those of Honest Pictures ... !!!
 
That Showed What It Is ...
To ... Try To Live ...
Inna’ English Lands ...
When You Are BLACK ... !!!
 
Well Unlike Him ...
I Was Born And Raised ...
In A Place That CLAIMS ...
 
To Be The ... “ GREAT UK “ ...
 
Well Britain Or England ...
But Now The Ships Sinking ...
Because Heads DIDN'T Listen ... !?!
 
To ... Linton’s CLEAR Vision ...
Cos’ It’s STILL A BITCH ... !!!
 
A Country FULL of Tricks ...
And Working Practises ...
That Makes The Masses SLAVE ...
To Earn Themselves A Wage ...
 
So That They Can Get A Break ...
From Working For Low Pay ...
 
While MP’s Pave The Way ...
For ... CORRUPTION of The State ... !!!
 
So These Words Here Are TRUE ... !!!
... England’s STILL A BITCH ... !!!
 
If You’re NOT IN ... “ Their Crew “ ... !!!
 
Bureaucrats Who Sit and Plan ...
How To Tax and Scam ...
The ... Average Man ... !!!!
 
And Let’s Not Forget ...
About ... Immigrants ... !!!
 
Like Linton Said In His Poem ...
They Use You ... ABUSE You ...
Spit You Out And Then SCREW You ... !!!
 
From Legal Tricks ...
To ... Political Stings ...
That’s Right Like BREXIT ... !?!?!
 
Now Ain’t THAT A BITCH ... !!!
 
Political NONSENSE ...
Causing Folks PROBLEMS ... !!!
 
Because of These Wrongun’s ...
From BRONSONS' To  JOHNSONS' ... !!!
 
NOT Linton But BORIS ... !!!
A Chuck With NO Norris ... !!!
Whose Talk Can Be HORRID ... !!!
 
So YES It’s A BITCH ... !!!!!
 
I’ve Just Revamped The Script ... !!!
From Windrush' To Brexit' ...
We STILL DON'T ..... Fit In ...
 
When You THINK And Have Skin ...
That’s DARK And Marks Cards ...
of The
... Whitest Of Hearts ... !!!!
 
UNLESS You Will FOLD ...
And Do As You’re Told ...
Like Those Good Slaves of Old ... !!!!!
 
From Being Called Lazy ...
We’re Still Seen As Shady ...
 
Because of Things Lately ...
Like Street Crime That’s CRAZY ... !?!
 
Well I Guess I’m That Baby ...
Whose Now Become Brainy ...
Who Sees That The Word ...  
...... “ STATELY'S “ ...
Connected To Hades ... !!!!

 
Which Is Where Bitches LIVE ... !!!!!
So Trust When I Say This ...
 
Linton ... Made The Trip ...
And Explained The Sitch' Quick ...
Through His Truthful Lyrics ...
 
That Inspired This Script ...
That’s An OLD ... NEW LIK'  ...  
That I’ve ... Changed Up A Bit ... !!!
 
Which Reflects On The Fact ...
 
That .....
 
... “ Ingland’s Still A Bitch ! “ ...

Back to the new album people...
poetry 5179
So, here we go folks, a slight change of pace and style, for track 5 !

It also deals in a little, role reversal for a change, as we all know about, art and music critics, but who gets to critique them ?

Well, here I go, Big Virge style, with a hard bass line and some intricate rhymes, to talk about things they do, say and write...

So take a listen to me speaking on.....

Okay guys, so a quick departure from spoken words with music, back to the purity of just a vocal and verse, and in this case, a suitable subject to discuss... that of what makes a person easy to, or interesting to listen to....
