Farewell

5/12/17


Go ahead and tell
Hide in your shell
Or run away like a gazelle
Don't like your intent and what you try to sell
Farewell
Catch an L
Rot away and smell
Then burn in hell
On my mind, it will not dwell

Throwing shade
On my name
It's nothing new or strange
What some will do for clout and fame
Is beyond a shame

I'm going to turn into the ace of spades
And a jack of all trades
Bury what remains in a legitimate grave
Then carryout another day, while still feeling the same

A new century
Another enemy
Out to get me due to jealousy
I can only imagine how it is, when you're a celebrity


Your not going to shorten my life expectancy
Or any chance of longevity
Due to me thinking sensibly
My own integrity
And a sudden surge of adrenaline and energy
No R. I. P. for you, or memory

Gravity

3/10/17

Across the entire galaxy
Areas with high to little amounts of gravity
Places torn asunder from catastrophes
And calamities
Causing widespread agony
Events occured slowly and rapidly
Lifeforms with similar and very different anatomies
Any of which may have experienced tragedy
Art of all kinds, occasionally on tapestry
Those with and without any moralities
Experienced or unfamilar with gadgetry
Before, during and after the first and last majesty
Still to this very day, much considered sacrilege and blasphemy
It's a travesty
Because there is more important things happening above and below canopies
Beside, on and nowhere near any balconies
People obsessed and putting out death threats over another's sexuality
Actions carried out callously
With brutality
On purpose or randomly
Showing no practicality
In all actuality
Movies and games of fantasy
But for now I'm talking reality
Staying in touch with my spirituality
While having a plan and strategy
A true man I'll be
Always there for my family
Regardless of if others relate or are not understanding me
Take care of yourself, and any cavity
Don't let it get worse and turn into atrophy
Relations hostile or having amity
Others battling insanity 
Apathy
And/ or displaying vanity
Due to their own mentality
I'd like to become experienced with many different things including alchemy
This was intended to be more than a rhapsody
And written with voracity

Poverty

8/8/16


Always grew up in poverty
Moms rented the space and property

At times we struggled and seeing her in pain always bothered me
Honestly

I thought about doing robberies
Because I wanted to bring in more broccoli constantly

Even if I never possibly
Had a chance to ever win the lottery

But I knew that would probably
Break her heart apart, which was wrong of me

So I tried to do it responsibly
And properly
But I haven't really hit the mark, due to too much monotony

Does it make me crazy?
I don't know maybe

It's all good in the hood

If you don't ever want to accept my apology
I'll just continue on my odyssey
Treating others with respect and equality
As I move vertically and horizontally

I've worked with a fair share

Of commodities
But never mahogany

To tell you the truth, I've always had an interest in archaeology
And so many other things including astrology

In space there remains anomalies
Amid a galaxy full of objects moving at high speed velocities

Scientists using newer and better technology
With excitement and curiosity
Looking to find some kind of new life form or colony

From the Perspective of Being Able To Fly

4/30/17


No more games of truth or dare
Getting to anywhere
Through the air
It's like I wasn't even there

Above the houses
And any mountains
Way out in
A place yet to be founded
Where it occasionally became clouded


Over the hills
Where the air is occasionally still
Near and far from any window sills
And fields being tilled
Or where oil is being drilled

Through different zones
Up and across roads
With varying amounts of stones
Whether similar or different biomes

All around the cliffs
Where it's still hit or miss
Staying the same or a change and shift
Across any planes and rifts


By the oceans
And ships in motion
Areas narrow or wide open
That do or don't have totems

Swim and Live Don'T Give In

8/29/16

Swim
And live
Don't Give 
In

Light or dim
Above and below the rim

Work hard and take care off your kin
Especially when times are grim

The same goes for her and him
We can't always win

As this planet continues to spin
Things blow away in the wind

The hedges got a trim
And the cuttings were put in a bin

Not a fan of hymns
Or any kind of gin

The silver lining was thin
But so much good it did

Went off a whim
And used my all even if i hurt some limbs

At times I have sinned
Washed the dirt off my skin
And spent time outside doing things that were like being at a gym

I Got It

8/30/16


Plotted
Lines connected no longer dotted

I got it 
Took so much more than logic
And being honest
Hard work, pain, sweat, blood and tears is what it costed

From here to beyond the tropics
Near and far from ore deposits

When things rotted
A pungent odor usually wafted

Only so much time we each are alloted

Events intertwined and corresponded
Some of which were ironic
And others occasionally iconic

This universe at no stoppage


Burned so much chronic
Many kinds that were exotic
But not all were catatonic


Drank too much and nodded
Time and money is what it costed

Animals that are exotic
Plenty of which were spotted
Gone but never forgotten

New items each year trying to be ergonomic
Meanwhile people continue to gossip

Class 1 and 2 narcotics
Among new and old electronics

Twenty four seven three sixty five at a rate that is constant
Comets
Space shuttles with rockets
And aircrafts moving at speeds that are super sonic
Traveling in places considered cosmic
Helping others gather data in astronomics


Not all molecules bonded
Is everything technically, gas, liquid, or solid?

Churches built with designs that are gothic
And occupations working with things that are atomic

When relating to things economic
Some just wanted
Only the profit
Even if at the end of the day they were tormented and haunted

Water

11/11/16
"Water"


On land and in the water

Ores such as copper


The M.V. P. of the entire roster

Back in the day they use to call me Harry Potter

Show me a lady that can cook like Betty Crocker

I'll appreciate every meal especially the peach Cobbler

Showing her respect and honor

And treating her proper


My mind continuing to wander

What opportunity lies over yonder?

Something I could find out or just continue to ponder



No it's not ever cool to be a bank robber

Or suicide bomber


Of every rhyme I post, I am the author

In school was only a mediocre scholar

Objects assembled with screws and washers


Certains days shorter or longer 

Depending on the season the weather getting colder or hotter

Nearby in these waters exists otters

Where people fish in fresh and saltwater

For many things, like trout, crab ,salmon and lobster

Trees grown from seeds, with much more than hard work and a water dropper



No good in remaining to be somber

Got to prosper

By showing and proving what I got to offer


I love playing sports, even soccer

I'm a fan of any well made lager

And I've always had an interest in owning a dog that is a boxer

Fascinations in all species not just nightcrawlers


Never was the biggest talker


Just trying to become wiser and stronger


One day I just may own a chair that is a rocker

Lost In Space

5/19/17


Lost in space
Little to no faith
Can't find my place
Or always keep up the pace
Among animals and the human race
Don't recognize the face
I see in the mirror, not even a fragment or trace
What exactly is it that I seek and chase?

Something unexplainable
Purely unbreakable
And untraceable
Yet irreplaceable
Meaning it will not always be available

Not doing well at setting a course
The problems come from the source
Despite all the friction and force
It 's mostly erratic, like certain waves at wharfs

All over the motherland
Difficult to understand
Despite what is on the other hand

Something still missing
Continually drifting
Am I really existing?
Or is their a catch, like there always is in fine printing

Paradox

7/20/16



Took a loss
And paid the cost
By not thinking outside the box

Stopped
To reflect and clear my thoughts
Near and outcrop of rocks
At the mountaintop

Got back to the spot
At five o'clock

Took off my shirt and socks
Because it was one hundred and three degrees hot

Next day there was brush to be moved and squashed
As well as lumber to be chopped
Some of which was dry and soft
Near and far from any moss

People praying daily by a cross
Cut from the same or a different cloth

Close or away from the docks
And any yachts

Only had silver, never a golden watch
Oh well, it may or may never be bought
Depending on if it it's something I truly want

I'm connecting the dots
So I can become a boss

During any equinox
And paradox

Still need to make a lot
No time to talk
Especially to the cops


In lands where people work with ox
As well as horses that may drink out of a trough
And at the first sign of night in comes a wave of moths

Overhead there flies and soars different types of hawks
Also on and in the trees are nests of wasps
While in some dens are families of fox

Residue

4/21/17


All humans made of bones and flesh it's true
Whether you do or don't have your whole life ahead of you
There's always going to be a test or two
During any treks we do
The sky ocasionally red and blue
At certain dates bills and rent is due
Objects straighter than an arrow or bent and skewed

Daily some using pharmaceutical meds and booze
And others that never do

Might've been at one point a friend to you
And now may be as good as dead to you

Better watch out before I pull off some tekken moves
With these lethal weapons you lose

By yourself or with a retinue

Focus on your own revenue
Work hard and eliminate any ineptitude

Among particles, debris and any residue
