frankly silent - ''nah''
some light a candle
and some blow it out ~ and some
watch the whole house burn
one in three ~ crazy
~ look to your right then left ~ they're
okay ~ then you're it
camp in the wild told
to fish for food ~ better be
cows in the water
McDonald lines ~ do
tax returns or menu stares ~
same when you were

My Life
My life
I wake up make my breakfast
Grab a knife to spread my butter onto my toast
I go up stairs on roast my sister
I pray that I don’t get a blister.
I go to brush my teeth
To make sure they are squeaky clean
Then I go to lean on the sofa
Then I make my

Nah Fer I ****
running in the groove
needle follows at speed
hear the record
skip as the needle
slices through my lump
Dying in vinyl crevice
oil slick sides
unable to climb
needle coming round again
jumping for the last time

Resturant Operater
you can handle that
you know what it is
ya'll know what
I'm talking bout
acting as if
Cause I know whats going on
somebody been untrue to you
ruined everything
spreading gossip
unraveling everything
that you knew
if he didn't look twice
he wouldn't have seen her ring
didn't know she was with someone else
that's what's started everything
not my wife the fella said
and the brawl beganned
fooling

Nah Nah
Days out there are just like everywhere, it's summer time
Do your worst time on earth and flip it right
Sounds are clear its like another ear
Another sight
A long time ago I knew a girl
And those days were mine
You can lay safely here
I'll face your every fear
I'll fight a lion
I know we're all young at heart
But

Nah U Don'T Want To Read This Poem Number Fifteen
THAT’S THE GEM-UNINE ARTICLE RIGHT THERE
That, my friend is the genuine article right there
All sparkly, shiny, and crystal clear
It looks pretty with the rubies on the side
But man, I’ve got plenty of time to decide
What’s there to decide man, you needn’t do any difficult tasks
I mean take that thing and ask the question a man

Nah, U Don'T Want To Read This Poem
RED, WHITE AND WHO?
I was raised amidst thieves, thugs and rats
Not the rodent, I’m talking about snitches
I grew up next to the rotten, rebellious and the skinny one is always called “Fats”
I was brought up by Broadway, by boosting and a bushel of b*****s
Ain’t nothing new to me, where I now exist
I am immune to

You Can'T (Nah Sir and No Ma'Am)
You thought that you fixed it
But it ain’t never been broke…
You stroked the spirit, with your fiery words.
Mismanaged a genius mind, thought it absurd…
Thought the life was subdued to succumb…
How untrue for it had just begun…
Exclaimed that you tried to break this spirit
Then another exclaimed the red wagon you would fix it…
Many have tried,

Do I Mis Her? Nah!
It has been 3 years to the day since she left
It was just like when she entered my life, hurried
Like a whirlwind she was, a petite dynamo
Always doing something, leaving nothing buried
She had her hands in everything she wanted
Never gave a thought to how it could affect most
She was in her own world; I let
