I Am Art


This is the place of my song dreams 
the spot where my soul sings alone 
here where my  name is Kareem 
I have found my lot overthrown 
This is the place of my song dreams 
a place for poets without memes 

Love holds its own inside this heart  
here you will find each hue of me 
Canvassed in the light, I am Art
and part of God's fine artistry.    
Love holds its own inside this heart  
canvassed in the light, I am Art

In this parking lot I call life 
I have learned without disparage 
Been acute like an honest wife 
and lived until a ripe old age
In this parking lot I call life 
I never focused on the strife
