2020 Freestyle series #40 - no shit | © poet.dreamer.fool
I spent way too much time
Climbing the tower of babel
Before I realized
it was made of ivory
A young king
I look in the mirror
to see who my rival be
I burn trees like they’re calories
Enter stage right
the ebony troubadour
Roaches on the floor
And in the ashtray
I was living in my last day
A happy mouse playing
While the cat’s away
Another different thinking child
Labeled a basket case
Held a mask to face
While I rat the race
I’ll snatch the cheese
From the mouse trap
Before it click clacks
You can bet that
You should
let that
Feeling pass
We gotta get through
This whole bag of grass
Before the ennui flash
With life in the fast lane
You pump your breaks
Before you crash
I’m giving the cop a little lip
And a lot of sass
And some light to bask in
I am human
If that’s what you’re askin
One day I will write some shit
Thats everlastin
That's on my mom and dem
Matter fact that's on myself
If its sink or swim
You can call me michael phelps
I used to think the depression helped
Suffer art
Horse cart
Shit fart
Fart shit
Whoa shit
I been on that working on my flow shit
And that
set down roots and grow shit
No shit
Stuck like some words on a page
The Understanding of perspectives
Gets way better with age
The key enlightenment
Is learning
To focus your rage
Sage
When I wanna be
Vision stays on tunnel b
I need to win
Just playing ain’t enough fun for me
Think jagged
Exist comfortably
No shit
