Temporary Inslamity

Temporary InSlamity
                 

Two a.m , still awake, gettin’ leg-shakes 
Gaggin’, burnin’ on my mis-slam-stakes 
Tryin’ to win some judge judy’s hot damn 
Thank-you-ma’am for hosting this con-slam-test 
As I sling slam sludge like hogs in a hookup ham-fest

Just a small-time soul slammin’ junkie motha
Hopin’ this funky slam betta than  at least  one otha!
Didn’t know when I started tho… 
Twenty-five crappy lines could sentence me 
To prison time for petty poetic crimes bro... or should I say brotha….

Cause this fussed-over cussed-over rhymin’ over-doses
Ain’t no Gun and Roses, hell it ain’t even close-es
More like prosetry psychosis 
Induced by late-night deep hypnosis
 Where am I???  maaannnn.. time to be poppin’ some more no-sleep no-dozes

Hope the Judge J. rules summarily
That I suffered temporary in-slam-ity illiterarily 
Or had an unnecessary ca-slam-ity vocabularily 
And no matter which way judge rolls, just so she knows
I didn’t write this slam ma’am… this slam is writing me (very eerily…)

So Judge Judy of poetic tort, appealing to your phoenetic court  
Don’t abort this sham of a slam to the sordid slammer
Order it posted where it can be toasted on glam slam site Instagrammar  
Cause tryin’  me,  fryin’ me over crimey slammism
 Means death of ode age in poetical prison…
