"Addiction" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 20/9/2005

POETRY ... Has Now Become ...  
My Number One ... ADDICTION ... !!!!!  

Giving Renditions ...  
By Using Diction To State My Position ...  
 
We NEED MORE Truth And LESS DIVISION ... !!!!!  
 
I Use PRECISION When Making Incisions ...  
That ELEVATE Minds From ... CLOUDED Visions ...  
 
Making A Statement ...  
But ... What's The Mission ... ???  
 
EDUCATION For Our Nation ...  
NO Homework Just My Dictation ... !!!  
 
NO Politicians NO Prescriptions ...  
Just My Thoughts Through ...  
..... Rhyme Inscriptions ..... !!!!  
 
Sometimes YES I WILL ABUSE ...  
Those I Feel Should Be ............ Excused ........ !!!  
 
Cos' Prose They Use Is PURE MISUSE ...  
of This Thing That Gives Us ... CLUES ...  
 
CLUES On Things That We SHOULD DO ... !!!  
NOT The Things Some Poets DO ... !!!!!!  
 
Use The Stage To Act The FOOL ... !?!  
Why Do THAT Don't You Like ... YOU ... ?!?  
 
It's Just MY VIEW So DON'T Be RUDE ... !!!  
It WOULDN'T Be Cool To Start A FEUD .... !!!  
 
Check These Words ...  
... These Words ARE TRUE ... !!!  
 
ALL of Us Are Needing School ... !!!  
Schooling  In The ... " Cycle of Life " ...  
 
These Words I BELIEVE ...  
... DEFINE Our Plight ... !!!  
 
We're LEARNING Til' The Day We Die ... !!!  
This Is Why I LOVE To Write ... !!!  
 
Cos' Words Sometimes Shed SO MUCH LIGHT ...  
On Our Journey ... Through This Life ...  
 
Poets Have A Chance To Make ...  
DIFFERENCES ... To Our Mind State ...  
Just By Using SMART Wordplay ...  
To SUPPORT ... The Things They Say ... !!!  
 
POETRY ... Does This For ME ... !!!  
It Helps Me Find A Place of PEACE ...  
 
A Sense of MAYBE ....  
Being.................... FREE ...................... ?!?  
 
A Place ... Where I SEE ...  
UNITY ... For ALL of US ... !!!  
YES ... YOU And ME ... !!!  
 
A Place Where WE ARE WILLING To Be ...  
ACCEPTING of ..... " REALITY " ..... !!!  
 
WITHOUT .... FEAR ....  
And WITHOUT ... HATE ... !!!  
 
Where The Colour of My face ...  
... Does NOT Create ...  
A Chance For Me ...  
To Meet My FATE ... !!!!!  
 
A Place Where WE Do NOT Disgrace ...  
What We CLAIM To Be These Three Words ...  
 
..... " The HUMAN Race " ..... !!!!!  
 
THIS Addiction NEEDS NO Prescription ... !!!  
Cos' THIS Type of Addiction ...  
Would ... SURELY GLISTEN ... !!!  
 
... Like A STAR ... !!!!!  
 
That SHINES From FAR ...............................  
And Makes You Want To ...  
... SCRAP Your Car ... !!!!!  
 
Well That's NOT Real But We Can DREAM ...  
And Then EXPRESS Through ... POETRY ... !!!  
 
But Wouldn't You Say ... ?  
That This Would Bring ...  
 
... MORE BRIGHTER Days ... ?  
 
Days of LOVE ... Days of TRUST ...  
Days That FILL Your Mind With STUFF ...  
HEAVEN Sent From UP ABOVE ... !!!!!  
 
So ... Just For YOU ...  
 
I ... " LOVE YOU MUM " ... !!!  
 
Cos Now You've Gone ................  
I'll NEVER Forget Our Days of FUN ... !!!!!!  
 
And The Days ...  
You Made Me READ And Told ... " Little V " ...  
 
How PROUD You ALWAYS Were of Me ... !!!  
 
Our Love Now SHINES Through POETRY ...  
Because I STILL FEEL You're GUIDING Me ...  
 
Like You Did When I Was ... THREE ... !!!  
 
Words Like THESE Define BEAUTY ...  
I Hope A FEW of You ... AGREE ... !!!  
 
The TRUTH Is I LOVE Poetry ... !!!  
Whether It's RAP Reciting FACTS ...  
Or The Words From A FAVOURITE Track ... !!!!!  
 
Poetry .... Has MANY Forms ...  
Like The Day That You Were BORN ... !!!  
 
Because Bedroom COMMOTION ...  
With The ... RIGHT Love Potion ... !!!  
 
Can Be DEFINED ...  
As ... POETRY In MOTION ... !!!  
 
So NOW You Know Why Poetry ...  
Has Become A Part of Me ...  
 
It HELPS Me KEEP My Sanity ... !!!  
And This Is Why It Has Become ...    
 
A Poem ENTITLED ....  
 
.... " ADDICTION " ....
