I sit on a man's back, choking him and making him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his lot by all possible means - except by getting off his back.
- Leo Tolstoy
The struggle for our imagination has become a matter of life and death. Our world hangs in the balance of our ideas. the pendulum swinging slow, signs that we are losing our breath.
So, what’s your story....
My grandmother
Would spell to me
Every time I misbehaved
S-H-A-M-E,
....SHAME!!!!!!!
Or would sing to me at work
Whether or not
she was having a good day
Spelling Bee
Worker Bee
The diet was always honey
So life was sweet either way
She would bake cakes
Into animal shapes
To celebrate
the day I was born
Or decorate
my slacks
W/ switches
from a tree out back
When me and my mates
Were out late...
playing soccer for way too long
And this was my 1st slice of Heaven.
If this is what they call the 3rd World, there's something funny about this dish, bring me back a New World Order. Cause nothing looks good on a menu, where Kings are turned into sheep for the slaughter.
And though God has always had a most interesting sense of humor, there is nothing funny about this place....
Luckily,
my Father was a
unintentional prophet.
Better yet a silent poet
See he just didn’t know it
Thank God for
15 hour shifts
In yellow cabs
In checkered cabs
In Gold coast cabs
In a city, where it
get’s so windy
One gust could
blow
your chance
And he tried to take
out his camera
But life is
Moved too damn fast
So he tried
freeze framing
a smile
But the model
Was a movie
that loved to
Point and laugh
....Like
Somebody’s sick
Dark Twisted idea
of a Fantasy
Where what you have
is not enough
And its the end of the world
To have it rough
So if you play your cards right
You can make it
To the top
On a hand
That’s just a bluff
W/ Insult to injury
Just to let you know
They dont give a fucc
They put it in those
Plastic trays
And feed it
To our children
And offer it as "free lunch"
A true enemy
rigs the odds
A winner
before he plays,
We’ve been beaten to the punch, my friends
Before we learned the rules of the game
Reporting live from prison radio, Free Mumia is all I have to say. You aint ready for the world tomorrow, if you can’t deal with the U.S.A. Today.........
--Life is a cypher, thank you for your eyes
