Spike Lee Poems | Examples


Who's Left

Lewis Carroll, Harpo Marx,
Albert Einstein, Eminem,
Paul McCartney, Judy Garland – 
These are just a few of them.

Add DaVinci and Obama,
Oprah, Jimi and Bill Gates,
Charlie Chaplin, Morgan Freeman – 
All have something that relates.

R.B. Ginsburg, Mozart and
Ted Williams and, of course, Babe Ruth,
Helen Keller, Ringo Starr,
Matt Groening and Bart Simpson. (truth!)

Jerry Seinfeld, Larry Bird,
Ludwig B, Spike Lee, Mark Twain
Are among the ten percent
Who use the right side of the brain.

Since today’s Lefthanders Day
Let’s honor all of those who are
As I will with my grandson Henry,
Who’s my lefty fave by far!

Michael Jackson

If you watch Michael Jackson
When he was a boy,
You will smile and delight
In his unabashed joy.

He commanded the stage,
All his brothers mere props,
For as young as he was,
He pulled out all the stops.

Check the Spike Lee biopic
And you’ll be impressed
At the talent and energy
Jackson possessed.

We all heard of his problems – 
Each habit and flaw – 
But when up on the stage,
He was worthy of awe.

at any hours I chance to walk the streets of black as white I share the shade of skin
and if mistakes are mades not my problem 
the cops were not here for me as they shoot you on day light with no questions
I had to amend their lies that I fell loosing my identity in the middle of the night to the try on ATM at the corner coming from work serving the Rihanna making us wait for an umbrella and a scoop of vanilla ice cream Spike lee so small in the booth 
I am mighty living with harry smith in my aviary and allen ginsberg visiting on regular basis of past they both died
