Ray Mattos Poet I do not know?

You and I

You and I

You put your hair in a bag
Your claim to fame is a rag
You came to capture the flag
Your love of bone doesn’t lag

I wipe the smile from my face
Me set the hammer with grace
I lose the game not the race
Me choose to setting the pace

And if you don’t understand what I’m saying
If you don’t understand what I said
Then its not in your jeans to go praying
For the puzzles that spin in your head

You put your cat in a chair
Your goat and cheese are au pair
You sniff the leak to prepare
Your truth is soft but unfair

I mine the grain for each truth
I am both villain and sleuth
I talk the tales long in tooth
I watch window from booth

And if you don’t understand what I’m saying
If you don’t understand what I said
Then a moment in marshmallow diamond
Will bring us from blue sky to red

You mentioned power and flesh
Your disposition is fresh
You offer leather and mesh
Your time in old Bangladesh

I answer grease with a gun
Me saw tooth bunions and run
I have a place in the sun
Me leave a mess when me dun

And if you don’t understand what I’m saying
If you don’t understand what I said
Then a post process sausage volcano
Will leave us all smiling but dead
