Outlaw Poetry
Outside the laws or standards
Inside my mind there are no laws, no limits
In ur world is not where my mind resides
Like a bank robber uses a gun
I use words
Stick 'em up!
Laws of poetry be damned
My words will shock the system
Some of my words aren't found in Webster's
My style is unique and illicits questions
Structure is meant 4 buildings and machines
Take your beliefs & turn them upside down
Rhymes belong in the nursery
No mask will be worn during this stick up
My heart & soul is on my sleeve
I write for the lost & broken hearted
I write for the lovestruck & lustful
I write for the vengeful & violent
I write for the angry & joyful
I write for the criminals & the redeemed
I write for anyone who doesn't know how to express what is going on in their mind
If you look really hard
U can find a piece of my soul in every poem
Sometimes u can find a piece of urs too
A lost memory spark
Like a song that brings u back to a moment in ur life
My song is in the flutter of Dragonfly wings
Oh, there is that piece
Filling pages with chaos & cussing
Curse words are used to make a point & express emotion
I use them often
U can only find those versions in private
Catch me, judge me, hang me
I used the "F" word
I curse too much!
My thoughts r sexual & possibly illegal
My words r violent & loud
My hands r loving & firm
My past haunts me daily
My ideas r radical & electrical
Light Bulb!
Everything a poem shouldn't be!
Mission in progress....
Riding in like John Dillinger
Public Enemy #1
A Criminal & Outlaw for the reader
I share all of it with u
The good, bad & the ugly
No matter how it comes out or seems
Sometimes feelings don't make sense
I do my best
Time to ride off into the sunset
With the wind at my back
And on the top side of green grass
It's been a helluva ride
I tip my hat to u
I will see u when I see u!
