Good boy gone bad enters the stage with a spotlight overhead, despite being misunderstood in my ghetto neighborhood

undergoes oh joy rapture colonoscopy.

Further from where I’ve been...

Out of Toilet Paper
silent issues

humanity
and the hypocrisy
of soft tissues

openly
running out of paper rolls
secretly
disgrace on humanity's cheeks silently rolls

a well known secret

a hood by night...

The Town Hall
Deep concern across the land, respect is all but gone
protesters attack, harass, all night until the dawn
Looking closely, feeling pain, no such thing as fair

Prisoners
Prisoners of their own success

Premium Member Defaulted Leaders
I wish you would’ve told me,
That I was no longer worth your time.

Your back-handed alabaster murmurs
Stroll passed my skeptical exhales
As I greeted you like adults should

But, your whitened pupils
Spoke louder
Than your failed dreams
To be a...
