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

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.

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!!
