.:My Word, Speaks:.

Blind in one eye shit-faced in the other
But let�s go further. Don�t give up. Come on act like a birther
Damn let�s flight or fight�
Take-off or take it off�go at it all night
Hit the light�Naw. Fooled ya, it�s still daytime
I�m crazy mad but still into the playtime

You still free verse. And me? I still wanna rhyme
But why you wanna act like you wanna hate me?
I try and evade hurt. You wanna pick at mine. �
I ain�t lying �
Maybe we need to grab some millimeters
Glock Nines, suit up in Stan Kowalski-type wife beaters
We could do shows how to throw blows in case we don�t pull triggers
Embarrass ourselves; act like a bunch of� �Why so serious� Jokers?
Get throw�d off like Midnight Tokers. Right-off that Streetcar

Call you The Desired. You had me mired� Faded in grief
Deep. Like Yusuf Lateef; I was crying �Love Theme from Spartacus�
Even while knowing The High could only go so far in this
Damn Sky, you was always my Star. If I�d drank; I�d still be @the bar
No, not really. Probably NOT�more likely in the grave
Damn, with YOU�the critical can�t behave
Call me your slave. My word.

You mean to tell me you never ever fathomed?
That I wanted to be one of your one and only strokers?
Went and got hitched. Now ain�t that a bitch
Told my 2nd & 3rd wife about My Crush.
How you had turned my heart into so much mush
Of course they didn�t wanna hear it!!!
YOU long gone and they still sneered and feared it

But that�s OK; Even YOU can be like that�
Nonchalant in this �near� Matter Of Fact
You can act cool. I�m used to The Pain
But pardon my gaff. You�ve driven me insane!

Sometimes it escapes us how much someone feels. I walked blindly for years.
Sorry, she never knew.

Even while knowing The High could only go so far in this Damn Sky, you was always my Star.
( love this verse)

Enjoyed the read my friend!
