The Hunger

 
the need to write  
the
need to fight  
the need to take flight  
 
semantics  
 
yes and no  
 
it's the plight that plagues  
the humbled masses  
all classes  
burgeoning beneath socialized behaviors  
 
the need to express  
in the raw  
 
UN-filtered...UN-fettered  
 
UN-fucked with  
 
the need to just be  
whatever the mood demands  
in the moment  
 
yeahhh...  
 
it ain't that deep  
then again  
it's deeper than the surface  
we show the world  
 
thank god for the gift of art  
martial or otherwize  
 
be it  
poet or pugilist  
no one's a real pacifist  
 
we battle gloriously  
all for the sake of individuality  
seeking to shed and share our graffiti souls  
in hopes of  
finding our long lost kindred
