Poetry Before Beat

Poetry before beat

Two things like Peanut butter n Jelly
Words so soulful
Rhythm and paper

Who do you want to be
Seems so simple
Rock star or at a Slam session

Banging on bongos
Or delivering a sermon
Butterfly on the surface
Of a train of rhythm

Dancing above
Below the deep wave
Downpicking like Hetfield
Spittin like Dylan

Spit the lyric
Lay down line
Poetry in commotion
Can’t find the beat

Coffee in the morning
Read the news
Thoughts forming
Spill onto paper

Need a axe to lay
Down the law put us in line
With some backbeat

Pick up my axe
Comes into focus
If I knew how to play
I’d be dangerous

Sitting in the hall
Of Greek gods
Spilling my sweat
Seems so simple

Poetry and beat
Go down in history
Find rhymes all mine
That I can share to everyone
