Michael Ruiz Poet Lyric

Underestimated

No hell no fail 
Can't tell ?!?
Criss crossed hands nailed railroad
Nervous nails chewed low 
Crisscrossed knees with broken elbows
Smile on the face 
hanging from the spikes like velcro
Head held up high
just a guy, who wants to make it
Ideas! 
creation!
 in relation to my nation
26 year Puerto Rican witty,
Full port o' patience 
Looking deaf and dumb
 so when u sum up
Your understanding of the estimations 
quite tainted witts
Your pessimystic guestimation of 
Sun,rain, ying or yang in my next destination
that might need be explained 
Just to strengthen the laymans 
still chained with the weakest links 
Yet! those craines  will have the the brightest brains
Bet! ye hold most hostile traits 
Those that wanna change  
Can't be scared of being scared
Can't fear being feared as
Positive reflection will leave you in the clear

Amy Sell January 27, 2018 at 8:38 PM I love the wordplays here, such as 'pessimistic guestimation.' It's hard to say whether the word plays make it better to read in writing or hear out loud, because the rhythmic quality would make that work well, too. Michael Ruiz February 10, 2018 at 1:59 PM when I read aloud to myself. there is emotional tones and frequencies that go with every word play definitely. because speaking from the heart allows readers to experience it with their heart... I hope!!
