Life the playground
As a child, we all love the playground
home bound and you cant wait to drop your bags
gulp some cool lemonade on a hot summers day
run to Toms house hijack him from his homework
so that you go on a real adventurous excursion to obtain a true education.
the playground is education, in a deeper sense.
you learn to balance life, school, family, leisure and all on the seesaw,
what goes around comes around in the form of karma on the Mary go round leaving you sick until you don't try it anymore,
life has ups and downs and only you realize how fast your going...

My Boulevard
I grew up in a quiet street,
where the only noise i would ever hear was the riot in my head
thoughts blasting,
like a ball kicked so hard to purposefully the net,
can i vent?
In the street i grew up in, i only had one friend,
called nature and we were always one.
difficult times now and then,of course,
as this friend of mine had windy issues,
cause i told the forecast as it was.
however, after all the rain we always expected the sunshine.
to be continued...

Karma
Karma, you find it everywhere from Africa to Asia
it can penetrate even the strongest aura
We living in a era where karma always adds to all the drama,
where our needs are rewarded by our deeds positive or negative.
Not even vodka can take away the pain of karma, meditate with yoga but the those thoughts still gonna come back to haunt you.
If Karma was a girl i would never touch or speak to her, but karma has been.
If Karma was a path id never walk, but that path walks and haunts me everyday.
If Karma could be seen id run away from it, but Karma is Usain Bolt....

Perfection
Perfection,
Nobody is perfect, i am nobody.
perfect is nobody, which makes me perfect.
perfection is a myth, so im kind of like the stories your grandparents told you about.
Im just tryna perfect my imperfections, i'm perfect you know.
To improve is to change, to be perfect is to change often.
and i change every single day.
I may not do alot of things right, but most of the time when i play tekken i beat up perfectly.
Practice makes perfect, but nobody's perfect, so why practice?
when i can just as well be perfect without practising.
I love you babe,...

Money
Money,
When you have it you are King, When you dont you are peasant,
im sure we all know that the sound of this aint pleasant
Money is a master, it instructs we surrender
Money has rules we follow blindly
Cheating and stealing are done for money
when you have money, you can tell jokes even if they aint funny
When you have money, you can make it rain even if its sunny...
If Money is the root to all evil, then greed must be the seed
we suck up to those that have it, cause we all want to succeed
When you have money you can do stupid shit, go to jail...

Complicated
My life is complicated, making it very difficult to understand how i am still able to write this poem while smiling :)
My life is complicated,
I have 2 mothers, no father and 1 father figure, go figure.
The supposed girlfriend that i love, he is a Hermaphrodite.
My life is complicated.
I know God through a book, but i have never seen him.
My faith is strong, but im not that religious.
My Life is complicated.
I have 6months on my contract left to live before this cancer eats me up like a soul plate, in addition to this i have HIV/AIDS but whatever...

Late Night
Late at Night when i want to sleep but keep myself awake with coke thoughts
Late at night when i turn in bed like a washing machine
Late late at night when i think of the days happenings in lil spite, how i couldve drank that sprite instead of that coke
Late at night when i reflect, and respect myself for the good i did in the day and having you in my life
Late at night when its super hot and the wall is soo cool that i stupidly try hoplessly to cuddle with it
and when i exhaust my feet in the air and try to count to a hundred hoping that by hundred and one i wouldve...

"Donald Trump's hair doesn't go all the way to the top."

I am Music
Classic rock at heart, yet I do have another side called Alternative.
My charateristics are rock and roll.
Folk is when I have something to say.
RAP IS WHEN I HAVE ALOT TO SAY.
My happiness shines through pop.
I laugh through country, I cry through the blues, I dance through hip hop, and I sing through opera. Ambient-- my nature, techno-- my craziness, R&B-- my love life, classical-- my relaxation, emo-- my anger, and gospel-- my religion (which is practiced through reggae, my spirituality).
Jazz is my superficiality.
And for...

Music, the Dad that i never Had
when i see the other lads glad with their Dads, it makes me sad.
Cause the father figure i am supposed to call dad, aint around
which makes me feel more alone like a nomad
And bullies touch the right buttons on my keypad that get me mad,
so i retaliate, but what happens after that is soo bad
so let me whipp out my pen and my pad and tell you about Music,
the Dad that i never had, It throws me baseball beats and i just so happen to hit a home run.
My name is skeeter and i sound like none under the sun,
see, i keep a trick under my sleeve like a magician but...

Relationships
Relationships
today we might fight and youll flip
while coming at me with that guiltrip
but i didnt book no ticket for that
tomorrow we look at a blunt thinking should we light
and when trouble is in sight i protect you my queen like your knight
our relationship,
sometimes comes underfire like the gaza strip
but yet we hole firm like a partnership
and it deffinately doesnt take a blind man to see
that you and me, where meant to be.
Input from both sides like we taking care of a baby
and may our immense love have no boundary

Just yesterday
Just yesterday i was just a kid in highschool
