King Edward The VIIIth, pitiable blighter, abdicated the throne.
He had the hots for an American divorcee - this the Brits would not condone!
He was King for a spell and the paramours continued their torrid romance.
They later wed, he was busted to Duke of Windsor and they settled in France.
Wallis Simpson was middle-class but knew how to climb the social rungs.
She was twice divorced which triggered a legion of wagging tongues.
They met at Lady Furness's digs and Wallie thought Eddie not all that sexy,
But they wed incurring upon The Archbishop of Canterbury a case of apoplexy!

Rhyme
|
Crisp cool night I got high and watched the stars twinkle. A moment of time a lost wrinkle.
Cooler than a popsicle not possible,
I’m splashing the water, my daughters the ripple.
Life is complex sequence
twisted into a long riddle.
To be what you want or settle for what got.
I remember when I had to piss and didn’t have a pot.
So my hands got to work
My mind got to thinking
I made 4 scores 7 years ago like I was Abe Lincoln.
But the time keeps tickin’
History still not written, the plot it thickens,
A tale of two cities no Charles Dickens.
Started in the field, ended in when a blossom,
Pollinate the pussy down to the red bottoms.
Mo money. No problem
More women,
More drugs,
More love to solve em.
Real life rockstar, a cop car.
Where’s success? Not far.
Popstar ready to pop the coochie on me.
I been bout it since Nas made oochie wallie.
My wallet thicker than Christopher Wallace..
