Retook a relationship,
With an old friend, chip.
Bought lots of new clothes,
There weren’t any woes.
Became a vegetarian,
Not an authoritarian.
Got back to YouTube,
More of the mind cube.
Wrote evolution essay,
Not creationism heavy.
Wrote about my brother,
Who was often my other.
Contacted a technology OT,
I’m not special blatantly.
Downloaded a course,
Won’t become hoarse.
Wrote lots of poetry,
Not ashamed, openly.

Where now does the black rose sleep?
The rains that fell before, bleed harder.
On grass that does not weep.
The lightening’s strike bears no sound.
Yet bursts afresh the stony ground.
Where hence do the voices go?
Their melody dancing, around trees flits.
Downwards on with the rivers flow.
Concealed within the morning mists.
I kneel with hands raised in fists.
Where then did the crows’ murder fly?
Leaving bones as their scar, laid fields bare.
And as vultures retook the sky.
Sea’s advance wrecks the iron ship with rust.
It’s foundations break, crumbling our chains to dust.

Meaning beating rhythmic patterns the letter X,
an initial in my name
It's a letter most people fear
but once you know it dear
Approaching it with-in it's text,
it will be a whole new game
Two sister cities
once stood still
one city in Africa
it took a pill
The sister city
took it's name
Africa's President took one look
They declared war on a great big crook
Then China once again retook the name
By paging out it's domain
It carried out it's plain
By the way Xi men is the name
I am a X
