I truly feel sorry for the Gargano
crime family that your only means
of support was through harming
me embezzling racketeering my
traumatic brain injury claim
intimidating identity fraud
impersonating me attempting
to extort my American poetry
my god I feel sad for your family
you're no Sammy the bull you need
my identity for medical treatment
after faking your death the funds
ran out and here we are i can't help
you I'm disabled I can't support your
dealers and killers your violent offenders
seeking early release this makes me so sad
organized crime and corruption should
support all members when they reach
a certain age unable to bring scores
to the table the five families should
open the books stop threatening me

The life of an old Eskimo
He got so excited
His igloo ignited
And melted away in the snow

MY DREAM CATCHER, FUND
Fleeting this world of empty form,
Urge cheer to be what humours glimpse;
Note change that swirls each dying norm,
Dance as you see dream within dream.

The poorest among us
only have money
The richest endowed
—with nothing but time

For several ages
Our relationship can be compared
To a benevolence fund
Always seeking a hand out
Never offering a hand up
The scales were never balanced
On one scale counterbalanced in pure gold
With dreams not at all foretold
The other measured in aluminum foil
With the value no equivalent
Of a penny being sold
A charity misfortune
You have been
Perpetually seeking help
Because you only focused on yourself
Which delivered me into
The grasp of death
I bet you regret
That I was able to come back
Uncondensed in full effect
Only to have you
Be a deadweight
For that I’ve developed
Emotions of loathing and hate
And this is because of our first date
I should have known
That I would become
An expert philanthropist
In contributing to the poor
You always requested more
Materialistic donations
And now I’ve made a head start
To take off and run
So I will not have to be the chairman
Of your benevolent fund

Namibia is a beautiful extravagant nation
Home to the largest cheetah Population
Thanks to the cheetah conservation
A non profitable organization
Funded by a public donation
Our sole purpose is education
Research and wildlife protection
The aim is to uplift a generation
And lead them in a direction
Where they start looking at wildlife with a
different perception
This will take innovation
Hard work and dedication
To keep our objectives in motion
And slowly but surely achieve our mission
With pride , teamwork and passion
Being part of the cheetah conservation
You become a key solution
A daily motivation
And a life time inspiration
My personal suggestion
Is less talk more action
Improving communication
Spreading wildlife information
And finding the best accomodation
For cheetahs in any location
For those that contribute to our Vision
With sincere respect and appreciation
Thank you for your contribution

Wise words work well true cheer that tells,
Opt deeply here to signal peace;
Reap that fond dwell as thought casts spell,
Keep focus clear to impact ease;
Sense a fond way that joy aligns.
Feel how you feel with a stern poise,
Urge thus each play to grand design;
Note faith that wills a sanguine voice,
Dance in your dream as hope finds you.
Wise work binds joy as love brings grace,
Oil your wise theme with form that cues;
Reach for warm finds that greet your face,
Dream dazzles dust in the crisp air,
Succinct deep trust now channels flair.

I'm going to start giving money to the United ***** College Fund.
It will be one of the greatest things that I've ever done.
I want black people to expand their minds and to be all they can be.
I want them to be bursting with knowledge as they accept their degrees.
They'll need a good education in this world they must face.
It's true that a mind is a terrible thing to waste.
