Say…You wanna Rap?
Say…you wanna rap?
Spit it out as droplets of verses
With twists that traverses
n’ traps a cavalcade of Ideas,
ideally ideal to spill ill from the face
Lost to a space that lacks restraint
so I hope you’re all ready for this whirl,
I harbor high hopes for a chill in this world
but please I plead, don’t feign to faint
from whence this picture proficiently paints
in lil’ collages of concise consistency
Cohabitin’ n’ collaboratin’ within this itch in me
It’s fittin’ to be hittin’ with thee wit-express
All Hail the Father…for...

To be Free…
Be Free…
As you inhale,
the effervescent scent of life
Be free in mind,
astride the joys n’ strife
Don’t settle to sit within
the confines of chaos’ frost
Stay grounded despite a mass
of “cause n’ effects” cost
Be free to think, to feel,
Simply fly like a butterfly…
it’s flight, destined to untether
Imbued with a sense
to acclimate circumstance,
regardless any kind of weather…

In the Mental’s…
I piggy-back’d
on my mental’s sack
Just to juxtapose
on the verse…
Gut check the spit,
as the lips purse…
“Why seed:
“ten’ll get you twenty” back
Yet all these feelin’s R instant sheddin…’
Unconcern’d ‘bout any regrettin’
They fed-sin, n’ then I’m full on jack’d
Until gettin’ fed up, then I curse…
First, I slide slightly
astride a line
Their sight-see-
me spewin’ outta my mind…
As if by chance,
my words enhance the blind
Leadin’ to all trails weighted

My brothers n’ me...
As I shake loose thoughts
from head to the knees
like a tree, frees leaves,
I drop at the foot of poet’s tree...
Within this network of mind
these branches combine,
twist n’ turn thru the years
they bind, we co-sign our family
N’ At root, where those depths
are defined, the ‘bark’ of those three
refine by this wise design, a trunk
stashed full of eyes bared in poetry.

“Narrator’s Fuse”
From his first words uttered
Found myself, mouth agape,
Thoughts sparsely fluttered
Ran about, mind for words escape
This voice, felt smooth, n’ soothin’
A smile settled quietly ‘pon face
Seems a bit of magic was provin’
The moment fell perfectly in place
And like they say, the unexpected
Happens when the least is expected
Though, as I should have suspected
Once I detected, that it’s ignited yet again
See, the “Narrator” sparked a light within...

“Now I Lay...”
All grown up
n’ no place to sow
Catalyst of intent
ebb n’ flow
Thru these thoughts
in n’ out I flee
Runnin’ ‘gainst
the current’s grind
Decomposin’ darkness’ scuff,
a ruff shine
Now, within four walls
recompense in
A truth risen
from bent shadows wince
One arrives,
in light... starkly all alone
Once a bein’ albeit gone,
on that path alone,
now familiar... is home.

To say it...
Like those great bards of old...
Shakespeare, Naruda, Wordsworth ,
Tennyson, Dickinson to name a few
To find those words, turn a phrase
as thought spills its will...write true
In a haze, muddlin’ through
the throng... til clarity seeps, n’
eyes weep, “those voices” long gone
One is left with a simple lil’ ditty
appropriate, as it fits where it belong...
“Her soul’s sweetness,
sits in the mind’s palette
to...Infinity, n’ Beyond!”

‘Broke n’ Tools’
In these UNervin’ times
I fall back in my mind
RE-viewin’ the signs
I saw, yet couldn’t find
Seeing’ no rhyme nor reason
for the unkind ways
in those days that
had left me dismayed
day after day
I had somehow stayed
locked in on the ill-
rotten displays of
misguided n’ mistreated
youth, seemingly thrown
away...
It was as if they weren’t
worth much the effort of carin’
As it may have played
a role in moldin’ a future
sure to pay dividends
on a foundation well laid

“NORMAL”
Normally,
normality wouldn’t even raise a brow
Though, nowadays can’t shake the
“every second craze” of madness now...
I’ve not yet lived a phase in life where
I could honestly say, “I’m livin’ the dream”
N’ seriously for those who claim they are
I question their truth as ‘eye-screen...’
The air...the world seems to be in a nightmare
neverendin’ as if God isn’t tendin’ his sheep
feels like I’m locked in a fogged, feverish sleep
but that can’t be,
because all I see makes me weep...

Hot White Pussy...
He was hot,
and instinctively he knew it...
Which was why after a daunting
trek across the freshly tarred pavement
he was happily lounging in a bucket of ice...
P.S. Absolutely NO animals were harmed
in the telling of this “Fee-Lonely-Ass” Tale!
😂😜

Night Wings...
A troubled soul, far too young
to feel so old, runnin’ dark streets
n’ no one sees him passin’ by
The mind’s in a state, hope seems
locked away or so far out of reach
to try...
He cries inside, “Why can’t
they see me when I’m ‘clothed
in‘ this guise?”
Wishin’ with all his might,
he had ‘night wings’ so he could fly
Then, as abruptly as his night run
began, It comes to an end
When in mere seconds 16 SHOTS
frees an embattled soul BYE...
