Sunday Succubus
crimson corset, curled claws
waspish wisp, a wailing willow
demon-child broke all her dolls
she smudges smiles, hear the spectres call
Succubus Sunday, the headlines scream
see her spread leathery wings
like a moth to flame, teeth drip sanguine
killer queen, enslaver of kings
feel the heat of the rains
holding a whip and chain
devouring flesh and bone
in her tower made of stone
she's like a rainbow rising
so slick and uncompromising
she sits on her throne
snacking on your soul ...
waspish wisp, a wailing willow
demon-child broke all her dolls
she smudges smiles, hear the spectres call
Succubus Sunday, the headlines scream
see her spread leathery wings
like a moth to flame, teeth drip sanguine
killer queen, enslaver of kings
feel the heat of the rains
holding a whip and chain
devouring flesh and bone
in her tower made of stone
she's like a rainbow rising
so slick and uncompromising
she sits on her throne
snacking on your soul ...

Sometimes, lyrical
Sometimes, just my ears
Sometimes, it's the moon
Sometimes just a candle
Bleeding molten tears

Sweet Caroline
On the stage it stood so bare
the amps unplugged all was silence, peaceful, quiet
the spotlight lost, a star to share
his ghost stood at the mike,
in the crowds thick fug.
Tickets rare a rocking horse shit,
pawned my goods to make the trip,
for they came in hordes and droves,
in admiration, young and old's.
Adulation raised the roof.
A greater star, to entrance, with lyrics truth.
the one with which, we could engage,
he sang, of feelings, fit for every age.
Spoke joy for romance, at every stage
sparkle,...

“Lyrical Jewels” ... A Poem written by Big Virge 26/7/2021
I Drop Lyrical Jewels ...
Like Seas Create Pools ... !!!
So They’re Constantly Juiced ...
To Find Wisdom To Use ...
So My Jewels Are Infused ...
With A Lot of What’s True ...
Like Be Careful of Who ...
You Believe To Be Cool ... !!!
Because Many Will Choose ...
To Play You For A Fool ...
If You’ll Quickly Give Trust ...
To Just ANY Human ...
A BIG LYRICAL JEWEL ... !!!
That’s NOT Good To Argue ...
And That’s Just The TRUTH ...
Because Life Gives You Proof ...
You See Jewels Come In...
Like Seas Create Pools ... !!!
So They’re Constantly Juiced ...
To Find Wisdom To Use ...
So My Jewels Are Infused ...
With A Lot of What’s True ...
Like Be Careful of Who ...
You Believe To Be Cool ... !!!
Because Many Will Choose ...
To Play You For A Fool ...
If You’ll Quickly Give Trust ...
To Just ANY Human ...
A BIG LYRICAL JEWEL ... !!!
That’s NOT Good To Argue ...
And That’s Just The TRUTH ...
Because Life Gives You Proof ...
You See Jewels Come In...

Hold up the Light
I hold up the light
To find my new beginning
I wish to be alright
But it's hard to look within me
I hold up the light
To find my new beginning
I wish to be alright
But it's hard to look within me
I try to fight
For all i got
I close my eyes
I'll break the knot
I am afraid
But I will give
I lay awake
It's hard to live
It's cold outside
And here's the storm
I start my ride
I am reborn
And all I know ...
To find my new beginning
I wish to be alright
But it's hard to look within me
I hold up the light
To find my new beginning
I wish to be alright
But it's hard to look within me
I try to fight
For all i got
I close my eyes
I'll break the knot
I am afraid
But I will give
I lay awake
It's hard to live
It's cold outside
And here's the storm
I start my ride
I am reborn
And all I know ...

Awarding word of mouth and a sell out message
Fifty seconds fifty thousand if you done paid attention
Mobile games and Crypto gains, I won't be the same ever
Foreign bank accounts are filling out from all the endeavors
Marketing at it's finest
I was nine when my cartoons
Had turned into shampoo bottles
Attractive models at Walmart
Cereal boxes and options
To rob a kid parent wallet

Eastbound For Home
She was driving home from Reno
in her mama's El Camino
on a gloomy Tuesday afternoon
Endless skies accounted
as lazy clouds swallowed the mountains
and the daylight faces of a waning moon
Her thoughts were lost; accosted
by a moment in the moonlight
dancing under stars in June
Glowing
in the warmth
of a tune
---- ---- ---- ----
She was tapping out the time
with her hand
on the steering wheel
(tap) (tap) (tap)

In the face of this fight I contend
For faith in miracles and the thought of the end
When love is a promise worth a life of dying for
Eternal hope in the providence of something more
Every heartbreak is a cry for war
2
You are a timeless call
You are a new way to be
You are joy in the midst of sorrow
The establishment of identity
You are the life and the death of me
3
Following the way of rebellion and pride
A sinner externalized is the same as inside
This flesh that craves wrath ...

You know me too well
I spend my weekends
Tryna get you off
My mind again.
But I cant make it stop
I’m tryna pretend
I’m good but you can tell
You’re right
I shoulda text you goodnight
I shoulda given more time
I wish I had’ve known this before
Now I’m replaying our goodbye
But it wasn’t a GOODbye
And I still hear you slamming the door
Try to hit you up
But you’ve had enough
You’re screaming down the phone
“You don’t know what you lost”
I said “im fine”
I didn’t care that much.
But I realize when you hang up ...
Tryna get you off
My mind again.
But I cant make it stop
I’m tryna pretend
I’m good but you can tell
You’re right
I shoulda text you goodnight
I shoulda given more time
I wish I had’ve known this before
Now I’m replaying our goodbye
But it wasn’t a GOODbye
And I still hear you slamming the door
Try to hit you up
But you’ve had enough
You’re screaming down the phone
“You don’t know what you lost”
I said “im fine”
I didn’t care that much.
But I realize when you hang up ...

Deep Cuts
.
.
.
I come from a time when we delved deep
Into a band’s L.P., Cassette, or C.D.
There was a ritual to opening a package
Then listening to an album in its entirety
The radio friendly hits were like appetizers
Songs which raised interest and curiosity
But an album gave a complete perspective
Discovering a recording artists’ virtuosity
In these deep cuts you’d uncover their talent
Compositions that displayed magical ingenuity
Hard work and passion poured onto projects
Into sessions where they showed...

Turn back time-Daniel Schulz
We used to run red lights and never look back
We used to chase long nights, nothing wrong with that
'Cause I loved you and I lost my mind
And now, I try to leave it, oh, I try
But you still haunt me, no matter where I go
And you hated my lasagna, but you came back for more
You got me running circles in your favorite store
And I lost you and I lost my mind
And now, I try to leave it all behind
But I still see you, no matter where I go
If I could turn back time and make it all alright
Only a piece of you and me will keep me warm all night ...
We used to chase long nights, nothing wrong with that

You got me running circles in your favorite store
And I lost you and I lost my mind
And now, I try to leave it all behind
