Name Me One Other Poet Who Submits Who Has the Ability and Life Experience To Write Genius

THOSE FIVE IMPERATIVE WORDS  
That, my friend is the genuine article right there
All sparkly, shiny, and crystal clear
It looks pretty with the rubies on each 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 like us always asks
Because that thing can only increase in value
See how sometimes it looks yellow and sometimes aqua blue?
   
Listen, I know it glistens and that’s righteously cool
But ask the question man, don’t be no fool
Let’s simply crawl to where we need to be
Because I’m telling you brother, this is serendipity

the gem just seems a part of me since I took it from there
And with that question it becomes someone else’s to wear
Look Bro, we went into the jewelry store and almost had to shoot old Pop
So ask that all important question, a fence or a pawn shop?
           Phreepoetree ~free cee!~ 
NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!
