The Edges of Rhyme
The Edges of Rhyme
I wrote the playbook, watching what they took
While the earth shook I could not look
In the direction of the Big Book
Like a fish caught on a nasty hook
Ruminating , contemplating, configurating,
instigating my own insinuating perspective
while your betraying the detective , let’s get reflective
It’s all defective until you rectify it
There’s no incentive unless you sanctify it
You want to try it , don’t deny it
I can tell you that you want to buy it
But I’m not selling , simply just telling it
Gonna end up yelling it from a multi story building while they’re filming
Constantly killing.
Poetry spilling from my rhyme, while I’m just killing time
Syncopating rhythm with rhyme
While Charlie Chaplins starting his mime
While I refine and I redefine the sign
Then imitate my own version of time
But I’ll decline to make a comment
While I cement my intent to relent and invent
The next unconventional perspective Its a consensual percentage
Of a singular collective straight from my own directive ,
this dam eclectic collective
Prestige , intrigued by the reprieve in the recollection of my expression of the
Experience of rhyme
So while I redifine your comprehension
Put me back on home detention
My inventions draw attention
Defy traditional convention ,
Im running late for the ascension
I’m simply breaking down the tension
From opinionated condescension
And dated out of touch retention
While you collect my true confession
I’ll book you for another session
Conatin my last past life regression
While you expand upon your concession
If the lesson is worth learning
Then I guarantee you I’ll be working
On converting the equation
I’ll be confined in the space station
Watching the contagious integration of the humans
From the inflations and collusions
As the intrusions of the capatalist delusion
Keeps protruding from the fusion of a human with integrity and humility
I’ll tap this rhyme for free
If only you could truly see
That what you are and what you want to be
Doesn’t always have to align perfectly
But it’s this symphony of antiquity
That just keeps calling me back to dream
A mouth that just wants to scream
Things aren’t always what they seem
So I won’t detract from the fact that my minds 100 percent in unbreaksbke tact
And I won’t retract my ing statements
My heads already hit the pavement of lament
Content with placements to vent this relentless intent
Toward creating the cause,
The horsemen come in fours,
Let’s try to avoid the next world war
As we rediscover what it’s all for
Washed up on distant shores
But it’s what’s at the core of it all
Predict the thought before the fall
I’m standing proud and walking tall
Answering my soul as it makes the call
Nat King Cole Lauren Bacall,
Another Brick in the god damn wall,
Lucifer before the fall
A man just giving it his all
I’ll stall for a while as I reinvent the notion of style ,
Run the gauntlet , walked the miracle mile
Found Moses in the River Nile
Going to wait around here and rest just for a little while
As I take what’s left of my resolve
And use it to ing solve hallf of the re-elected whole ,
Still holding Notions of the old devotions,
So don’t confuse it or refuse it or use it For a two bit show on death constant row
My melancholy gets me low
But if there’s no pain you don’t grow ,
So go before I throw you overboard ,
I won’t fall on my sword just to appease you,
Won’t stand back or down just to please you
Because I can see straight through the fake reviews and blue suede shoes that only fit a few ,
I’ll take my cue from a view that is looking directly at you
So if you want to sue , I’ll litigate you TIL I’m blue in the face, all of this human disgrace
got to face the kid holding the can of mace ,
praying to God for glorious grace ,
I know my place, back in the human race
But only on my own terms and taste
So make haste and face the wasted space
That brings about your own disgrace And take nothing from the final trace elements of this embellishment
Then infiltrate a new state ,
Don’t play with all that poison and hate
Unless you’ve got what it takes To make the right mistakes
And hold your own long enough to infiltrate the golden gates
Of wisdom at your fingertips
start whistling while you get down to Sit
Among the facing of the opposite
Hold my breathe til I get to the bottom of the ocean
My soul enlivens with devotion
As I reside in my emotions
And try to avoid all this commotion
You are the entry point for your own destination
