Motion Alert
Excerpts of dark, encrypted passages
from the Book of Ghetto Proverbs
If you step to me, you’re gonna step in it
It’s best to step back ...
let repelled pride manure gap forget
Token retrograde crab attack:
moonwalk reverse stride in full effect
Lower the stylus voice at shame’s behest
With ring finger pointed down
in muted decibel regret
Verbal slam defeat,
pulmonary cowardice on auto-silence reset
Feeble fetal heartbeat —
Void sound of a prone position sour signet
Turntable retreat ...
hand spoke lies get stagger lip diamond bit,
so scratch the truth anyway you wanna spin it
