The Underground

Gaze on face on
Underground lives on...
Mic like fire flames I spit on...

I possess and embody the powers that lies spiritually and its so real
Habitually I used to write about candy and liquor. But now I write how candid and equal

I stay up all night to perfect my rhymes, dialect the words and discard all primes
I've never been known- no one like... Oh he's nice or he's got skills 
Before the days of rhyming and sleep pills

Mic perversion; the nucleus of knowledge I pass on. Amidst evil I strive on 
Assuage every lyrical latent I was born to spit flames with hypothetical cadence

I am the light that shines from the dregs
I am he with the strength of helium mixed with sweat

Godwin Prince,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
