Ode To Immortality

I come into this world wanting so much But expecting so little Puzzling days revealing That life’s a riddle Getting played like a fiddle Because many are ignorant Slow at life With a goal of belligerence Constituents Are becoming a nuisance Telling sugar coded lies When we know they’re translucent We got a problem Houston Celebrity suicide attempts People are crazy Even when it’s sunny outside People are still shady But it’s amazing As result of my craving I can still rhyme about Someone else’s misbehavings I haven’t said enough But I have said plenty My goal in life is to be Immortal in the minds of many Those fat and skinny Those short and tall Those young and old I want to be remembered by all Frequently asked questions Of how and why? I tell them I talk about the hidden topics And don’t ever lie Then I’ll never die Even after I pass I’ll live on in the mind That’s where I’ll be located And that’s where you’ll find Me, myself And a poet calm as weather And that’s is how I will live on forever.
