Hokus Strokus

Call me the 
magician, pulling 
rabbits out my hat, 
the 13th Friday 
Jason Voorhees 
stabbin at your cat,

with hocus strokus 
powers when I use 
my magic wand, 
soft upbeat 
melodies are 
sprinkled to a 
sadder song.

True oral 
capabilities that 
tangle with the 
gods, just wrap 
your legs around 
my love of flesh and 
made as hard,

as concrete in the 
city jungle, let me 
splash and rain, 
with multiplistic 
pleasures only you 
will ascertain.

The body of a 
goddess hottest 
motions we'll divide, 
the feelings warmer 
than the hottest 
ocean when inside,

your core of molten 
lava java with a drop 
of milk, your 
nectar's sweet as 
sugar woman, not a 
drop I'd spill.

We're swimming in 
the heavens you 
and I collide as one, 
the brownest colors 
sparkle when your 
eyes align the sun,

for I'm your Mr. 
Wizard but our 
show aint for TV, 
it's not for K-I-Ds 
the grown and 
onlyest is we.

I know that you are 
captivated by my 
strokus spell, your 
chances of escape 
are like a snowball's 
chance in hell,

your cool demeanor 
melts so fast into a 
running stream, my 
tongue will lap your 
essence up, a vivid 
stunning dream.

The ghetto Harry 
Potter but I will not 
make a flick, unless 
we're filming 
cunnilingus, lemme 
take a lick,

then afterwhich I'll 
stamp you like an 
envelope in jail, the 
magic spells I cast 
will do much more 
than open mail.

In fact extinguish all 
the lights, upon 
your walls I'll write, 
graffiti in Tahiti, we 
will bounce and ball 
all night,

because I'm a 
magician known for 
tricks and slight of 
hand, I don't invest 
illusion, yes I am 
the rightest man.

Before I end this 
baby I will get down 
on my knee, and 
pledge undying love 
to you for all the 
years I breathe,

it's more than just 
the magic of the 
stroke that drives 
you wild, don't ask 
me how I do it, it's 
the hokus strokus 
style.

Impending Doom

Cup does runneth 
over, rhyme inside'a 
me at last, was 
barren and so 
empty til inside 
there drops a 
splash,

of rich poetic 
potions mixed with 
collard greens and 
hash, let's picture 
hours after the 
economy has 
crashed.

The whole world 
saw it coming on 
our back; 
impending doom, 
so don't believe the 
newsroom talk of 
how it's ending 
soon,

it's not just pipin hot 
it's burnin 3 degrees 
from noon, but won't 
be real until you 
hear this nation 
sing the blues.

We'd lose the 
government's 
assistance, it would 
be no joke, the 
unemployment, 
welfare food stamps 
gone, there'd be no 
hope,

come slice this 
mental Wonder 
bread then sit and 
eat a loaf, there 
wouldn't be much 
growth around at all 
to feed the folks.

The homeless 
though do lay their 
heads by where I 
catch the train, the 
richest country in 
the world can't help 
them, that's a 
shame,

but multiply the 
handful by the 
millions that'll hang, 
their heads in 
shame with no 
economy, yo that's 
the game.

The President's 
approval ratings 
dwell where cellars 
be, the days 
of 'meat for dinner' 
gone, no sales on 
celery,

and that's for those 
of us who're 
blessed with God's 
defining truth, or go 
out like the 30s 
where we'd stand in 
line for soup.

A real life 'Book Of 
Eli', ain't no gas to 
run the cars, your 
feet would beat 
retreats in cold and 
heat to run you far,

in fact if the 
economy did end 
up true deceased, I 
guarantee you'd find 
those selling kids 
for food to eat.

The loss of all 
morality heats up 
like yellow sand, to 
witness inhumanity 
defeat your fellow 
man,

brutality and 
savag'ry would grip 
this very land, to 
have the cleanest 
water or a bit of 
DairyLand.

It then would turn to 
war amidst the 
races and the 
creeds, Apollo died 
while boxing, folks 
like that are safe 
and free,

majority's priority,    
minorities would fall, they'd 
light us up Paul Mall 
in other words they'd bomb 
us all.

Scenarios are 
worse case but I'm 
not that wrong at 
all, so fellas stuffing 
dollars in the 
thongest of the 
draws,

and ladies who just 
live to go and ball 
out at the mall, 
enjoy it, stand up 
tall and pray to God 
it all don't fall.

Men In Panties

Ladies run for life 
see there's an 
outbreak like the 
flick, instead of 
coughs and 
monkeys there's 
outrageous 
flakyness,

that's brewed in 
towns amidst and 
all around so take a 
sip, some men just 
swear they're hard 
forever actin str8 
like chicks.

I'm sure you know 
this type of dude, 
they're never down 
with me, the type 
that hit the 
bathroom and they 
go sit down and pee,

their street cred's 
all they have at 
least that's how it 
sounds to me, until 
I look around and 
see the blatant 
clownery.

There're children 
raising children, 
where is Daddy? 
They don't know, 
these men go 
makin plans the 
kids'll wait but they 
don't show,

but then will take 
his woman's kids to 
eat and to a show, I 
call these Mickey D 
type fellas 
fatherhood to go.

You also have the 
kind of men who're 
quick to pitch a fit, 
they'll sip a fifth of 
Cris and use their 
fists to hit on 
chicks,

for what they may 
insist to be 
unzipping of the 
lips, or other hints 
of sickness men in 
panties, get a grip.

They have the 
pregnant wife and 
plus the girlfriend on 
the way, to hurry up 
and have those 
babies, fetus ondele,

but cuddled next to 
wifey is just where 
they're gonna stay, 
they better hope 
that God feels 
merciful; they 
oughta pray.

They zip the finest 
whips around the 
town like rabbits 
race, all kitted down 
but living up in 
mama's attic space,

they call 
themselves some 
men and yet they 
have to scanvenge 
dates, by sneaking 
past their 
mommies' pets, I 
see the cat's awake.

Won't knock ya 
hustle men in 
panties, go on do 
the do, the truth I 
know is way too 
much to ask of 
fools like you,

a sad and sorry 
loser yet you're 
steady talkin 
smack, you're just 
not worth the time 
so go ahead, talk to 
my back.

My ladies hold ya 
head, continue 
pushin up with 
ease, and please 
don't let the acts 
of men in panties 
such as these,

deter you from 
attempting to 
acquire just what's 
best, there're good 
men out there if 
you're looking, still 
some of us left.

So hurry up and 
douche those guys 
because they're 
rotten stink, it be 
that way 
sometimes cause if 
you really stop and 
think,

there's nothing 
worse than men in 
panties, call it more 
than right, so once 
you clean em out 
my ladies please, 
just run for life.

Verbal Intercourse

Strap ya helmet on 
and while you at it 
pass the keys, we'll 
ride and eat on 
words for dinner, 
homie pass the 
peas,

I don't do this on 
purpose, it's the 
way things have to 
be, I'll smack these 
kids without a 
daddy, little 
bastards please.

Expand your mind a 
bit and you can 
comprehend the 
flow, there's no 
amor for garden 
tools cause we 
don't love them 
hoes,

let William foot the 
Bill that Matt can 
wipe his feet on 
quick, my potna 
Rich concurs the 
other Richard's just 
a Dick.

These words can 
read like any book, 
don't be afraid to 
look, goodfellas root 
for guys in movies 
living life like 
shnooks,

you'll never freeze in 
coal that people 
use to feed the 
heat, I spank on my 
filet mignon 
therefore I beat my 
meat.

Go 'head and make 
a pizza out of $100 
notes, cause all 
you need is sauce 
and cheese with 
lots of flattened 
dough,

your car breaks 
down in traffic? 
Lose your shoes 
and get a tow, and 
whilst you wait get 
stoned with lots of 
dro that rock ya 
dome.

They call me Mr. 
Heinz cause you're 
in back and can't 
catch up, you'll get 
the FICA treatment 
when I'm taxin 
that's whasup,

and that's no 
homosexual, I'm 
happy cause I'm 
gay, my pounds are 
like my methods so 
it's 2-8-0 my weigh.

I hope y'all get the 
message how 
it's 'sposed to come 
across, I clean my 
teeth with currency 
so yes indeed I 
floss,

the doctor wants to 
rush and send the 
people to their day, 
I guess it's safe to 
say he has no 
patience either way.

My wordplay is a 
blessing like the 
other side of sin, 
when makin love it's 
guaranteed I will 
arrive again,

so come and join 
the sideshow 'cept 
the magic isn't blue, 
I wear my t-shirts 
circle necked when 
rollin with my crew.

To read is 
fundamental but to 
not is dumb as hell, 
some people love 
stupidity, I wish the 
others well,

my word'll slide 
inside a chick and 
keep her tunnel hot, 
it's verbal 
intercourse 
vernacully I've 
touched the spot.

The Cunning Linguist

Folks think I'm a nice guy, to a fault I guess I am, 
if those folks only knew deep down I just don't give a damn,
I'm tryin to keep my language clean like crispy Franklin notes, 
I am The Cunning Linguist spittin nifty antidotes,

that cross you up the Hardaway and leave ya ankles broke, 
hot feces exits out my mouth, I got a stanky throat,
that exhales dragon fire but believe this aint a roast, 
there's too much jumpin off and I'm afraid it aint a joke. 

Like women nowadays, I often wonder if it's me, 
that sees how some are free to divvy up the wizard sleeve, 
then they don't know just how they came to get the hivv disease, 
deny and keep it sweet to give it up to Nick and Steve. 

I get up on my soapbox when I have to drop a jewel, 
the niceness gets mistaken like I still won't drop a fool, 
for comin outta pocket, I aint talkin poppin tools, 
I let go of the knowledge cause this dude can drop it smooth. 

I'm Harry Belafonte but don't call me Mr. Tibbs, 
this poetry just flows in me and what a gift it is, 
you may not think my skill's correct but I insist it is, 
I'm so unlike the others, verbis not ipissimis. 

Confused on what that means? Well I advise you look it up, 
vernacular's like stir-fry in a wok; I cook it up, 
and dish out healthy servings, I won't let your brain cells starve, 
in executing verbal warfare, yes I am well armed. 

My aim will blow ya head off like Bin Laden, picture that, 
the YouTube vids and image will confirm this vicious fact, 
don't need Marines and choppers flying into distant lands, 
I'll do you like Waist Deep but they won't find the missing hand. 

My adjectives are ravenous but that's just certain ones, 
my scarface resonates of how I kill these words for fun, 
to crush the competition and I do it big like Pun, 
then ride off in a Matrix, Cunning Linguist, I'm The One.

Al Bundy

Put your toe inside 
my mouth, I wanna 
feel you squirm, 
there're lessons to 
be taught tonight, I 
feel you're gonna 
learn,

to let yourself be 
serviced in the 
many ways that 
come, I love bare 
feet but time to 
switch, go 'head, 
put on them pumps.

They're pointy toed 
and shiny with at 
least a 6 inch heel, 
your muscle calves 
are flexing like Mad 
Cobra on the real,

I think it's time for 
sex when shoes 
point up toward the 
ceil, that Jimmy 
Choo Manolo 
Blahnik action 
seals the deal.

You may think I'm a 
freak and you can 
tell from how I 
speak, those 
pumps can rub my 
cheek for ocho dias 
ev'ry week,

that leaves an extra 
day to flip off work 
for extra play, you 
work them sexy 
thangs as if you 
twirk for extra pay.

I failed to mention 
that you're nude 
with shoes and 
that's the move, you 
got me thinkin 
baseball like I 
wanna smack a few,

from out the park, 
the rout starts with 
your Peggy Bundy 
walk, the stuff to 
have a buck of bud 
combusting after 
dark.

See I can be your 
bodyguard, we'll 
play like long lost 
pals, that 80s song 
goes best with 
Bundy, you can call 
me Al,

I'd jack these sons 
like Janet if I say 
let's wait awhile, 
them pumps worn 
with a short tight 
skirt? Now that's 
the way to style.

Those shoes 
embrace your feet 
like Twista's 
rhymes embrace a 
beat, I hear folks 
talk that bull but are 
afraid to face the 
heat,

my catalouge 
competes without a 
Facebook post or 
Tweet, your feet in 
them stilettos baby, 
muy dulce; sweet.

Your weight is 
meaning nathan, 
lookin fine from 
head to toe, them 
Lisa Lisa fellas now 
prefer thin chicks to 
blow,

all on the magic 
johnson which to 
me aint meanin 
jack, I'm talkin 
zapatos de negro, 
crotchless cream 
and black,

dress nightie set, 
exciting yes, it all 
starts with the 
shoes, the wrapping 
of your package 
leaves exquisite 
parts to view,

a patient man I am 
my darlin, come 
and dance with me, 
I'll end this as we 
move to music, you 
dressed scantilly.

Return of the Cunning Linguist

People raise your 
glasses up as I 
propose a toast, for 
spittin thangs that 
do spit flame and 
grab ahold of folks,

with 2 hands open 
wide and poised to 
grab and hold ya 
throat, this peanut 
butter flow is hard 
to swallow; hope 
you choke.

I'm light years in the 
distance to a 
mental place I sit, 
and buggin cause 
my brain's been on 
a mental Matrix tip,

don't need to use 
an airport, close my 
eyes and take a 
trip, I hear the 
people talk but aint 
nobody sayin spit.

I gotta pay these 
williams so I grind 
to make my grip, 
I'm scared to break 
its neck so I don't 
try to make it flip,

no need to fade out 
gradually it's just a 
basic mix, I wash 
my words out 
longer so they'll 
have to stay and 
rinse.

A cunnilingual 
master of disaster; 
Mr. Creed, I'll die 
just like Apollo 'fore 
I live like Mr. T,

or hobbled in the 
mind cause 
ignorance is 
misery, a know-it-all 
that still can't read, 
these kids be killin 
me.

My verbal halitosis 
makes me carry 
Listerine, I kiss the 
L with smoke rings 
like I'm married to 
these trees,

to switch it aint no 
wives no more just 
chicks who carry 
seeds, and try to 
live the lifestyle 
from TV and 
magazines.

I wish the hood 
would smell the 
coffee, not alot have 
learned, that once 
they take a sniff 
that very coffee pot 
is burned,

along with all the 
rest of breakfast, 
people gotta learn, 
the government aint 
handin out no more, 
you gotta earn.

Vernacular is raw I 
know, I'll season it 
and cook, it's just 
not cool to be so 
stupid, go and read 
a book,

what's saddest 
though is how some 
folks reject what 
feeds the brain, 
embracing empty 
nourishment like 
Drake and Lil 
Wayne.

The Cunning 
Linguist has the 
jewels to be forever 
dropped, I spit on 
all my critics, 
T.C.L. will never 
stop,

administering logic, 
making enemies of 
friends, and toolin 
up for battle, be 
prepared for sweet 
revenge.......

Sex Scenario: Pouring Rain

The element of water is much needed to survive, 
that's 2 parts hydro oxygen for breathing deep inside, 
all scents of Mother Nature dwelling in between your thighs, 
with you I'm Maya Angelou, a touch and still I rise. 

The shower water's beating like a drummer go insane, 
it drizzles as it bangs and brings to mind the pouring rain, 
we ride the ganja leaf as I begin to tour your frame, 
the steaming mist envelopes us, we fly like soaring planes. 

A drenching kiss that makes us slip, we're goin under too, 
the sky's alive, the lightning strikes and brings the thunder too, 
my legs collapse like Autobots to slide up under you, 
your right leg's now on my left shoulder, aint no runnin boo. 

The 1st lick of those certain lips exhales your breath away, 
the 2nd through the 30th go past like yesterday, 
and minutes after fastening my mouth to man your boat, 
a liter's worth of candy jam goes slamming down my throat. 

Your hips do grind and so do mine except some time has passed, 
you hold for dearest life, you're like a vice, so tight to stab, 
but once the motion activates we form like Wonder Twins, 
which has me quartered safe in you like I was Gunga Din. 

The shower nozzle's open to a full blown water blast, 
the way our skin is smacking loudly, it just oughta splash, 
you throw it back like Brady when the Pats and Dolphins clash, 
or moreso like you walk the streets and look to ball for cash. 

It feels like Heaven's open with the angels washing down, 
but even heavy shower water can't wash out the sounds, 
of passion resonating through a frosted wall of glass, 
my seed does not impede with speed, into your walls I crash. 

A 2nd wind of stamina embraces me like fam, 
I'm like a stick of granite still, that's just the man I am, 
who don't mind puttin in extra work that'll leave us sore with pain,
the shower's like we're outside sexin in the pouring rain.

Big Girls World

Ever since I can 
remember, goin 
way back when, I've 
looked for 
something slightly 
diff'rent in my 
women friends,

intelligence and 
plus the skills to go 
hook up a steak, 
the lady rollin 'round 
with me can push a 
little weight.

Not talkin Rick 
Rozay, that kinda 
weight can get you 
10, to life as easily 
as breathin, locked 
up in the pen,

the weight I'm talkin 
bout don't have a 
point scale in 
between, size 26 in 
Big Girls World 
physiques start 
size 16.

A guy like me don't 
sweat a woman's 
stomach blowin up, 
a treat when time to 
eat I simply hold 
the stomach up,

my nose needs 
precious oxygen to 
breathe it deep 
inside, increase my 
lung capacity 
betweenst a big 
girl's thighs.

The skinny chicks 
are not for me, they 
just don't do a 
thing, in fact they 
need potato salad 
with some chicken 
wings,

don't throw them 
bones away half 
eaten, go 'head, lick 
em clean, and nap 
out on the itis, put 
some thickness in 
those jeans.

No matter what 
folks think or say I'll 
make a big girl 
glow, my dragon 
was the last that 
made her shine 
from head to toe,

sho nuff there'll be 
some opposition to 
these ways I kick, 
I'd treat the haters 
like R. Kelly, they 
can taste my rinse.

Enough with the 
vulgarity cause I 
won't miss my cue, 
the big girls of this 
planet, these are 
words I spit for you,

to put it out that 
Papa cares, 
displayed with 
proper flair, I'll grab 
a white girl's goldie 
locks so call me 
Papa Bear.

Regardless of the 
race or creed I'll win 
the race indeed, my 
big girls grab your 
running shoes then 
come and race with 
me,

to lust filled nights 
in hotel rooms, 
there's always 
vacancy, we'll run 
like DMC forever in 
the place to be.

I'm stuck inside a 
world where all the 
girls are large in life, 
despite that 90s 
movie I'll be livin 
large tonight,

as easily as most 
can prob'ly spin a 
string of pearls, I'm 
not ashamed to say 
it, yes I live in Big 
Girls World.

Techno Lust

Technology's 
necessity, without it 
we would die, it's 
fascinating really 
how computers run 
our lives,

the tapping of the 
keyboard and the 
clicking of the 
mouse, it's gotten 
so that folks don't 
even have to leave 
the house.

The world's right at 
our fingertips and 
there's no way 
around, the fact that 
all you need is just 
a debit card 
account,

to pay for what you 
wish, your items 
may get freely 
shipped, you may 
get really gipped 
but I aint really 
sayin spit,

I'll change it up a 
bit, now ev'rybody 
lose your mind, I 
don't mean goin 
crazy just expand it 
and refine,

imagine you're 
agoraphobic, 
scared to go 
outside, computers 
then present a 
slight resemblance 
of a life.

The script rotates 
with ease I flip it 45 
degrees, you got 
the shady ones out 
there that steal 
identities,

bring fam'lies to 
their knees, 
absconding quick 
with 50 Gs, a scam 
that's ran leaves 
both the check and 
save accounts on E
(mpty).

They're also in the 
mobile phones, 
there're no more 
phones at home, no 
cordless in the 
kitchen only touch 
screen mobile 
tones,

that come with 
email, news and 
weather packaged 
up in foam, 
remember when we 
knew our peoples' 
numbers from the 
dome?

I stand up self 
admittedly 
absorbed in techno-
lust, it's fright'ning if 
you ponder, it could 
all end with a touch,

of just a button, 
maybe 2, a maze of 
82, Verizon's the 
horizon so we're 
really praising who?

The media in print 
is by the wayside, 
take a look, we'll 
move a cursor but 
won't flip the pages 
in a book,

on that aspect I'm 
old school up unitl I 
d-i-e, you'll always 
find a paper or a 
hardback right by 
me.

The future's in the 
hands of those who 
strive to make it 
more, than being 
slaves to 
microchips like 
Terminator 4,

there will be no 
salvation when the 
Ipads mess us up, 
Steve Jobs (R.I.P.) 
is worshipped more 
than God, beware of 
techno-lust.
