Passages
First a twinkle in her daddy’s eye
Hypnotized
By the rhythm of her hips
Momma’s hips
Gripping, tugging, releasing him
Encouraging the venom
Pulsating, quaking:
The laxative
Voyaging through the passages
Welcome to the world
A brand new baby girl!
Simple mind under the curls
Just sucks on her bo-bo
She speaks her first words
And then before you know
She’s preparing for her classes
The sequel to her passage
Graduation day
For this bright young female
A glory to her story
Tears of joy from received hail
Onto the next chapter
Because it’s feat that she’s after
Enlisted to manage ravage
The Atlantic is her passage
Presented to the tasks
Of a female soldier
Doesn’t think
Solely follow’s her superior’s orders
Was assigned to convoy duty
When she and her platoon were blasted
A tragedy
A disaster
A catalyst in her final passage
I'd love to hear Common recite this rap
