The Risk of Living

The risk of living is not death at 
all..No thrills in jumping with no 
chance to fall...Life without death is 
not life at all.

Unseenbeauty

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

That's what they always told her 

But the prince is yet to behold her 

So she began to loathe her 

Life to her is over 

No one can console her.

Mind-Less

I apologize for being no LESS then myself. What was I thinking, wait maybe that’s the problem I 
was thinking, there I go again using my MIND, my bad.
I’m sorry I took that other road, u know the one LESS traveled, I know I should have followed the 
crowd but there I go again being an individual, it’s a habit.
The guilt from not giving in to peer pressure is getting to me, I hate my conscience I mean Why I 
got to have morals? Don’t nobody else got them, and if they do they shoal ain't using them. 
I hate being in the talented tenth, people expect me to do something with my life 
I have an idea (don’t tell anybody, that’s not cool) maybe if we MINDed not having a MIND we 
would spend more of our time growing instead of showing, that we are a photo copy of what is 
cool, the truth is nobodies alike, I don’t even breathe like anyone else, when I walk I do this thing 
where my head is held high it kind of resembles pride. there I go again being intellectual, forgive 
me it won’t happen again.

Dear Stalker

Dear Stalker

        I need some space.
Was that you in the black car?
I enjoyed the chase,
but you went a little to far
removing my breaks.

Writting this is really hard..
but I don't feel safe..
so I put it in the card
with the birthday cake

Its not you its me.
you'll move on.
I, ran into the tree
You've done nothing wrong

I completely blame this wreck on me.

                                        -Stalkee

The Interrogation of An Animation

Superman, Batman, and Spiderman 
you too. I have a burning question 
about what you guys do.

You save the world from evil am I 
correct?....

And in doing so you've gained the 
worlds respect.

But that's not my question before 
you interject...

Its just that I've noticed somethings 
that you guys neglect

Who will save you when its all said 
and done?

You must know every battle can't be 
won?

When you die will your legacy live 
on?

Do any of you even have sons?

My interrogation here is almost 
done 

If you won't answer those questions 
please answer this one..........





Are the tight body suits necessary or 
do you wear them for

Put It On Repeat

This same song I’ve listened to 72 x 72 times and for some reason I feel different every time I listen to it. Same beat, same hi hat, same song. Although I’m like the waves in the ocean this song controls my emotions .For the life of me I can’t figure out why this melody mellows me,how these verses bring me virtue, why this chorus corrects me, and why the bridge besets me.If I knew this song would have this effect I would have still pressed select for this song tells the story of my life how even though I’m not good enough god thinks I’m just right, why every time I cry there’s someone beside me how 
even though I upset him he still accepts me. 
The song has got the best of me so, on I listen 
till I find a new muse. That will make me understand when I’m confused, to take away the pain when i've been bruised, or to simply listen to when I cruise.

The Cave

This cave is dark this cave is safe this cave is small but it’s my place 
This cave is where I hide; this cave is where I cry this is my cave you can’t come inside.
I want to come out but I can’t find the exit. Living in this cave is very depressing.
This cave consumes me this cave removes me.
This is my cave I cannot go if I do, well I’ll never know 
For this is my cave I’ll never leave here I’m planted like a tree.
Don’t get me wrong I don’t like this cave but for eighteen years it’s where I’ve stayed.Here in 
this 
cave i see only one pair of hands.I know not nothing no woman or man, I would escape this 
cave but I haven’t a plan. Until I conceive one here i will stand and inhabit this cave like a 
cave 
man.

Crime of Passion

My heart went missing the thief left 
a note and a incision.. 

I cut with precision
 To gap the division 
My love is not a decision 

I could no longer pine
 So I took what was mine
Is that such a crime?
