Let's Make This ...  
 
...... " Official " ...... !!!
 
Most Poets These Days ...
Have Become ... " Superficial " ...
 
They Now ... " Love Themselves " ... ?!?
 
Their Show's Got ...
... FOUL SMELLS ... !!!!!
 
Some Actually Think ...
Their Actions Give Help ... ?!?
 
Well ...
This is how ...
 
Things ... REALLY ARE ... !!!!!
 
The Scene's ...  
Full of TARTS ... !!!!!  
 
Who ...  
Pick and Choose ...
Who ... Get In View ...
 
and THIS Is Just ...  
The ... Very Start ... !!!!!
 
Their Movements ...
Are Like ... SHARKS ...  
But Bite With ... " little bark " ... !?!
 
While Meantime ...
Those With ... Talent ...
Are Pushed Into ... "The Dark" ...
 
Let's ...  
Get This ... CLEAR ...
 
I DO Mean ... ME ... !!!
 
Cos' Words I Write ...
Don't EVER ... Veer ...
Into Their ... Phoney ...  
 
... FAKE VENEER ... !!!!!!
 
Probably cos' ...
I Steer .......... WELL CLEAR ..........
of ... Sucking Things ...
That Some Men .... " LICK " .... !!!
 
cos' Acts Like That ...
To Me ..... Are SICK ..... !!!!!!!
 
Ladies ... " Play " ...
The Same Game Too ... !!!
 
How Many of You ... ?
Would ...  " Do The Do " ... !!!
To ... Get Into ...  
This School of FOOLS ... !!!!!
 
Just To Read ...  
On The ... BBC ...
Broadcasting Words ...
That Show You're ... "weak" ... !!!!!
 
These Are The Poets ...
of Whom I Speak ...
 
Black or White ...
They Act The Same ...
 
They Take This Art ...
For An ... Infantile Game ...
 
Their LUST For FAME ...
Just Shows How Vain ...
The Vessels Are ...
That FEED Their Brain ... !!!
 
I Enjoyed That Verse ... !!!
Let Me Say It Again ... !!!
 
Their LUST For FAME ...
Just Shows How Vain ...
The Vessels Are ...
That FEED Their Brain ... !!!
 
They ...  
Like To ... " Criticise " ...
But Can't Take ... " Criticism " ... ?!?
 
Their Words Are ...  
.... " Contrived " ....
and AVOID .... REALISM ..... !!!
 
If I Had My Way ...
They'd Be Locked In .... "Prison" .... !!!
 
and Then .... INJECTED ....
With The WORST Kind of Venom ... !!!!!
 
Some Poets I've Seen ....
Have Shined With A SHEEN ... !!!
 
But ...  
These AREN'T The Ones ...
On The ... Poetry Scene ... !!!!!  
 
By This I Mean ...
The SLAM POETRY Scene ...

Where Restrictions Keep ...
Good Poets ... "unseen" ...
Who REALLY Would Shine ...
WITHOUT ... Mr. Sheen .... !!!
 
This ... " EGO Thing " ...
Is ... OUT OF CONTROL ... !!!!!
 
Take Note of My Words ...
Before Your Heads Roll ...
 
Compere ... or Poet ...
You May ... Pay A Toll ...
For ... Ignorance Bred ...
From Those With ...  
 
... NO SOUL ... !!!!!!!!!!!!
 
DON'T ...  
BIG UP Your Friends ... !!!
 
They May Be ... Your End ... !!!
 
Try ... BIGGING' UP People ...
Whose Wordplay Transcends ...
People Who'll Make People ...  
LIKE ... Your Events ... !!!!!  
 
NOT ... Ignorant Fools ...
With ... ANGER To Vent ...
Who Then ... Want To Bring ...
Your Event To An ... End.
 
They're PIGS ...
With NO Kermit ...
Whose Wordplay Is ... TURGID ... !!!!!
 
The Answer Is ... Simple ...
DENY THEM ... A Permit ... !!!!!
 
DON'T Let These FOOLS In ...
Have People MORE ... " Learned " ...
 
LEARNED In Things ...
Like ..... " Humility " .....
 
LEARNED ... In Matters ....
Like ..... " REALITY " ..... !!!!!
 
THESE Are The People ...
With ... REAL POETRY ... !!!
 
These Days I Feel .............. " Lost .........
In A .... " Society " ....
Where Poets Use Poems ...
For ..... " FRIVOLITY " ..... ?!?!?
 
Just ...  
Look Around You ... !!!
 
DON'T They See ...  
What You SEE ... ?!?
 
DON'T They Live In A World ... ?
Where They SEE ... " Poverty "... ?
 
DON'T They ...  
Live In ... The World ... ?
With Youth Now ... ANGRY ?
 
DON'T They Live ... In The World ... ?
Where We See ... So Much GREED ... ?
 
It ...  
Would Appear ... NOT  ... ?!?
 
Cos' ...  
These Aren't The Subjects ...
In Their Poetry ... !!!
 
... " OH YES IT IS ! " ...
 
IS What They Will ... " Say " ...
MAN ... Give Me A BREAK ... !!!
 
STOP Being ... SO FAKE ... !!!
 
They ... HATE To See Me ... !!!
and Their Boots Start To QUAKE ...
Their FEAR ... Seems To Be ...
 
Cos' My Poetry's ... GREAT ... !!!!!
While Theirs ... I'm Afraid ...
Is Just ... " ARTIFICIAL " ...
 
My Mind Is ... " Judicial " ...
 
So ....
Let's Make This ... OFFICIAL ... !!!
 
Most Poets These Days ...
 
Have Become .....
 
... " Superficial " ...
