I’ve tried to explain to some people on there that
the DU site is the place for them
Can write a subliminal poem about someone with no names
hoping they see and know it’s about them
High chance they won’t so that’s funny
The point is, there’s no rules in a rap battle
and some shouldn’t give it if they can’t take it
because it’s not yourself that is just gonna get dissed

Songs of desires
O life...
You're such a bitch
An alluring seductive siren
Songs of desires—your fatal bait
Luring, intoxicating, consuming
us weak mortal beings
Misleading us sailors on our
voyage across birth to death with
your songs
Enticing us until we fall prey
to your deceptive charm
Sucking us deep into your black hole
until our real identities
get dissolved...

without time, we don’t exist
the storm dismantled itself
hundreds of miles ago
that ache in your bones
is a child trying to set itself free
time passes and 'i'
travel with it
'we' no longer exist
seasons covet me
i wear elegant perfume
made of rain and stardust
i do not orbit you
violet hue
of a feigned constellation
you're only a drop in the universe
a stab in the dark, a dust particle
falling in the wind
you. are. falling.

Hatari!
Zoo's big game hunters,
Many Rhino accidents.
New photojournalist, Mama Tembo.
Frustrated, then love wins.

PROCESS OF A REAL LOVE
As we grow from a seed to a flower let us bloom with each touch of the sunshine against our seed buried beneath the soil of the ground from MOTHER NATURE, like that from the womb of a OUR mother that gives us life like a tree of LIFE GIVEN LIFE TO GROW AND BLOOM LIKE THE FLOWER OR TREE YOU WERE TO BE BORN.

The flower below the step
Could not recall its name
Now I have a choice of three.
Before the front door it blooms
no matter the weather.
yesterday rain all day
yet daisy-like it bloomed
I brought it here
when I leave will stay
flowering below the door step.
Now spoiled for choice.
Pyramus de Candolle named it
Erigeron karvinskianus
others
Mexican Fleabane
I prefer a third,
Santa Barbara Daisy
which scans and
has a human face.
This...

stars fall
..between the fingers of a hand
bone-white twist of tree trunk climbs
silence
in the death-grip of basalt
even the voice of the wind is lost
no translation possible
between painted eye and sewn lips
shadows fade
return

The Most Dangerous Game
A pouch full of weapons is a shinobi’s only ally
Yet so many underestimate the power of words
Is what I’m speaking the truth? Is it a lie?
I’ll teach you everything I know from the Third.
A shinobi’s life is shrouded in mystery
Take care of those you keep close to your heart
A split second can turn the tide from death to victory
You have a fire waiting to be unleashed, and I’ll be the spark.

I’ll remove the blindfold that blocks your view
I’ll make sure history remembers your name
Trust your instinct; it’ll...

No Belief Nor Deception Needed
Duncing on the side of disbelief
of misbelief
of missed believing
a belief deceiving
on and on
wee go as "it" goes........
(eXplain yOur negative eye! It's getting late)
you must be a soused liar
of some ordinary, exotic ilk.
leaning on a cane (propped up)
as nothing short pf plagarism.
One way Or the Other / One way Or the Other /
One way Or the Other

Cliche
Aha!
She's back from the dead!
But beware,
All hell might break loose.
(But doesn't absence make the heart grow fonder?)
Read the poems of this basket case, friend.
It will be epic -
With words, rhymes, romance,
And all that jazz.
All the bits and pieces, guts out,
Skeletons in the closet out for public viewing.
A peek at her dark and stormy nights.
The songs of a bleeding heart,
Honest as the day is long.
Teenage dream -
As horny as a three balled tomcat,
Free as a bird.
Sometimes,
I guess.
