GOOD MORNING

I wake up crying

The birds are not flying;

All kinds of strangeness

From the sun that once

Sustained us.

 

When I first shook um...

People were drowsy

''Good morning. New day.!

I said: I am not here for pokes

Likes, or as a comic relief.

Poets down played my message.'’

And my belief ‘s.

‘’ God, I gave you my soul to keep’’

 

In 2011 when I first hit the scene

Much could have been avoided then.

When I came, I came in straight shooting

Exposing malfeasance in

their lousy schemes, 2016.

 

We constantly are afraid of dying.

Pertaining to ‘’Putin, and all the looting’’.

Now, we all wake-up crying,

About who’s on the take.!

Once again, ‘’I lay me down to sleep.’’

That is, ’if we even dare to wake’’!

Children of the 50's speak…

GOOD MORNING
I wake up crying
The birds are not flying;
All kinds of strangeness
From the sun that once
Sustained us.

When I first shook um...
People were drowsy
''Good morning. New day.!
I said: I am not here for pokes
Likes, or as a comic relief.
Poets down played my message.'’
And my belief ‘s.
‘’ God, I gave you my soul to keep’’

In 2011 when I first hit the scene
Much could have been avoided then.
When I came, I came in straight shooting
Exposing malfeasance in
their lousy schemes, 2016.

We constantly are afraid of dying.
Pertaining to ‘’Putin, and all the looting’’.
Now, we all wake-up crying,
About who’s on the take.!
Once again, ‘’I lay me down to sleep.’’
That is, ’if we even dare to wake’’!
Children of the 50's speak…
