“Stop Bothering Me”

Do not tempt a beast
Or
A beast is what you get
Thank you
For you attention
At the end of this
This needs to be over
Before a massacre eludes
Making it hard
To being cordial at best
I do not need you
Lane changing
Coming into my rearview
Or
Veering in front of me
Let us make
This clear
This is
My lane
That is
Your lane
Let us get
To where we are going
Without confusion
Without roadblocks
Without incident
Failure to communicate
Is not my problem
With anyone
I say what
I mean
I do as I say
My middle ground
Is staying in my lane
Keeping my opinions
To myself
If I am not asked
It is not mine to give
The end of story
Curtain closes on this act
So here is my dilemma
I thought it was impossible
To have too many people
Not knowing me
Lying on me
But I was proven wrong
Every time
I let my guard down
To invite them in
Into the secret realm
Of where my peace
Is kept
Peace of mind
Peace of heart
Yeah yeah
That mumbo jumbo crap
You think is not for me
To keep
Then your thought process
Is on the fritz
You need to fix it quick
Before I correct you on it
See I am not about
Playing games with my
Mental
Physical
Emotional health
With anyone
Fix your life
Or
I will fix it for you
Just know
If I fix it
My tools are
Impractical
Inappropriate
Unbecoming of a lady
That now stands before you
That beast inside of me
Even I do not want
To meet
No one is ready to see
Not you
Not me
She is uncontrollable
She only knows predator instincts
Not forgiveness
Not mercy
No feelings
Of how you will end up
After the massacre is unleashed
So before I leave
Do you have
Any more questions
Question and answer
Session is now
Open for you
This is your chance

“What Da”

I do not want
To come out my character
For no one
Especially you
But I will
My irritation
My annoyance
Of the sight of you
I deal with it
Well enough
That is my cross
To bare
But heed my urgency now
I am asking you to keep
This in mind
This is the end
Of the road for you
I can not take
Much more of you
I am warning you
I am cautioning you
This is a public service announcement
For you
And
Anyone like you
To leave me alone
Because
I could careless
Either way of your
Success
Or
Failure
It does not matter to me
My thing is
I did nothing
I do nothing
To nobody
Nobody can say
I have done anything
To them
I mind my own damn business
I stay in my lane
I know nothing
About nothing
I do not gossip
I do not question
I do not interact
In conversations
That do not include me
So
Why is it
$Hit still falls on me
I am not understanding
This concept
This crap of
Why this is happening
To me
This worthless nonsense
This $hit storm
That is taunting
That is following
That is chasing me
I do not give
Two $hits about
What you do
How you do it
When you do it
Where you do it
When it does not concern me
Just
Stop being mad
I refuse to be in the audience
Clapping in the crowd
For you
Get over it
Be glad
Another person is not being
Fake with you
Kissing your @ss
Laughing behind your back
That is not me
Do you
I do me
Live your life
You do not need me
To be your cheerleader
In this world
That is what your family
And
Friends
Are for
I am neither to you

“Your Weakness My Strength”

Heed my warning
Do not tease
Do not agitate
Do not feed
Because that will tempt it
To come close
To see something
Very seductive
Freedom beyond the gates
Some people
See this
As weakness
Asking for help
But for me
It is strength
In this situation
Because I want
To hold back
My devilish intent
My rage
My unemotionality
To give mercy
To people I know
That do not deserve it
Yes it is my dilemma
But if released
It is everyone’s fate
So
If you want to avoid
The massacre
Then please help
Keep this beast restrained
It can not reach
The chained
Charcoal rusted gates
It will be devastating
For us all
We must
Contain it from the world
Away from everyone
Leaving it
Trapped below
The surface
It is best
My pleaing
Is not just for you
It is for me too
My soul can be lost
Come with me
To the last stand
Protecting the gates
This is the last obstacle
To maintaining peace
It has a hunger
To escape
Capture me
Takeover
Live inside of me
Only to
Control
And
Force me
Out of consciousness
Unaware my surroundings
Into a blind rampage
Destroying everything
Only because
No one believed me
When I said
You play with the beast
The beast will eat

“Situational Intolerance”

What happened to your spirit
What broke you down so bad
Making you so
Hateful
Resentful
Disrespectful
To everyone around you

Where in your life
Did you lose yourself
That innocence
That kept you laughing
And shrugging off
The little stuff

Because right now
That stick
Up your a$$
Is causing some serious damage
Destruction that is making
This a detrimental situation

And I am tired of this
You constipated
Irritated
Miserable person
With your attitude always
Dailed up to ten
For no damn reason

This stuff you on
Got you doing
Some demented batshittyness
How can you live
With yourself
Being so difficult
What is your problem

After eight hours of your crap
You make me want
To commit myself
Just so I can be alone
In peace
Listening to silence

Your problems
No one can solve this
Even a mathematician

At the top of his class
Threw up his hands
Saying he did not
Want any part you

Unsolvable equation
That was his last statement
As he ran away
Saying lose his number

“Let The Beast Sleep”

I have been
A mere
House cat
Domesticated
For a minute
But
That predator
That animal
That beast
That part of
My DNA
That makes
Me
A lioness
That was
Sleeping
Peacefully
Is almost
Out of
Hibernation
And
That energy
Once depleted
Is almost
Recharged
100%
I am almost
Ready
To be
Unplugged
Voraciously
Insatiable
Enthusiastic
To hunt
I am tired
Of people
Testing
Pushing me
In a direction
I have been
Avoiding
At all cost
To go there
Makes
A predator
Rise up
From the ashes
Creating
Something
That no one
Is ready
To meet
So
Stop pushing
Me
To the brink
Because
If my back
Is against
The wall
I will not think
I will attack
Before
You blink
And
It will be
Your fault
Because
I warned you
Nonetheless

“The Civil Force”

Responsible
For the prevention
Detection of crime
Maintenance
Of public order
Nowhere
Says
Fear
Consternation
Discomposure
Is part
That description
Yet
This is a
Combination of
Something
That is
Building up
Only to
Boil over
Into something
Most deadly
A legalized killer
Playing
Judge
Jury
Executioner
In the street
Of our community
Putting targets
On the chest
Of people
Killing anyone
That they deem
Not human
We all
Can do
Without this
Melancholy
We need protection
Not
Twitchiness
Embedded
In the DNA of
A police officer
A peace officer
A soldier of
Community
We need
Officers
Who have
A calm mind
A steady hand
Being a
People person
With training
To see everyone
As humans
Not bullseyes
Moving amongst
Our community
Having that abilty
To deal with
People
And
Be
A peace protector
Not someone
Part of
The tyranny
Looking for revenge
Instant justice
By riddling
Unarmed
People
In the streets
With bullets
Will be
A beginning
No one is
An animal
A carcass
Needing
Collecting
Made as a
Trophy
In anyone’s mind
Worn on someone’s chest
Placed in their record
As a legalized
Good shooting
It is
A Killing
A Murder
By any meaning
Guns should be
Last resort
Majority of
Situations
Can be
Have been
Solved
Without killing
Look at
The prison system
Full to capacity
Getting fuller
By the minute
How do you
Suppose
They
Got there
Alive
Breathing
They were
Arrested
Convicted
And
Imprisoned
Either
Receiving
Justice
Or
Injustice
By the system
But alive
Nonetheless
Living to
Fight
Within the system

“A Clown In Man Skin”

Your reputation
Now
Precedes you
And
My premonition is
It will spread
Like wildfire
Burning
Down
Destroying
Everyone
That will come
In contact
With you
So I am
Doing a PSA
Fair warning
For all
Gathering
All the
Dictionaries
In the world
A highlighter
To mark all
The words
To call you
Put your face
To them
And
Below is
A beginning
A start to
Illustrate you
A manipulator
A heartbreaker
A fraud
A pretender
And
One word
I know
Will never
Be on
That list
King
That word
Will never
Describe you
You are a child
Trapped in
A man’s body
Playing games
With women’s
Minds
And
Emotions
In order
To destroy them
It is sad
You think
Karma
Will not come
For you
Knock on
Your door
To punish you
For all
The wrong
You have done
To everyone
Their justice
Will happen
For
Every woman
Child
That ever
Loved you
They will
See you
On your knees
Begging
For forgiveness

“Dehydrated Damaged Systems”

These days
They are
Not using
Conventional
Weapons
Guns
Knives
Bombs
To cause harm
They are
Doing it
By sucking
The life
Out of
A room
Wherever
They go
These
Unpredictable
Killers
Individuals
Who are pitting
People
Against
Each other
Using their
Weapon of choice
Hateful words
To fuel
Their destructive power
And
Their egocentric
Tendency
To think of
Themselves
As invulnerable
The self centered
Narcissistic
Attitude
They present is
A slow acting
Painful
Deadly
Poison
Dispersed in
The air
For everyone to
Inhaled
Only to sip
Into weak systems
Getting into
Their bloodstream
And
Shutting down
Vital systems
Governments
Communities
Nuclear families
Destroyed
By one
Uttered sentence
Of hate
Forming
A creation of
Infected
Damaged
Destructive
Minions
Who are
Causing
An uprising
Provoking
Mass devastation
Disconnecting
Our humanity
Our compassion
Our tolerance
Towards
One another
Dividing us
Enough
So we can not
Help
Each other

“Predator Paradise”

No matter
What you
Think
What settings
You have set
Take more
Precautions
On what
You are posting
At least
Turn off your GPS
Because
It is not
Always
Friends
And
Family
Looking
At your
Postings on
Social media
Just know
Some parts of
Your life
Should remain
Private
You may not
Comprehend
This
But there
Are
Prying eyes
Out there
Looking
Over everything
You post
They want
To catch
You slipping
Hackers
Stalkers
Criminal minded
People
They are
Trying
To find
Their next victim
Stop making
It so easy
Do you not
See the world
We are
Living in
We have
Too many predators
Electronically savvy
That use
Social media
As a
Tracking system
Stalking your life
And
The people
In it
Getting
So close
They could
Reach out
And
Touch you
You can not be
So unguarded
So unfocused
So addicted
To social media
You post
Details
That should not
Be posted
The world
Does not need
To know
Everything about
You
Where you are going
Where you’ve been
Who you are meeting
What you are doing
Every moment
Of the day
Especially
Where your child
Is
Going to school
The activities
They are in
The friends
They play with
Evaluate
Your life
See what
Must be
Kept sacred
And
Off social media
Just stop
Socially
Relaxed
Being compliacent
In a world
That crazy
Unpredictable
People
Exist
With ill intentions
Searching
For a victim

“There Is No Manual”

Everyone
In this world
Has an inheritance
Of unlimited
Wealth
Beyond what
Money could buy
It is in the
Opportunities
We have
The passion
That fuels us
To chase dreams
And
Push
Our mind
To getting
Where we want
To be
In this life
And
To complete
This quest
For what
Is destined
To be
Your life
Know
It is after
You have
Opened
Your eyes
Taken
Your first breath
That you
Need to
Look towards
The stars
Claim what
Is yours
Realize that
They are yours
To take
No one can
Tell you
How far
How wide
You should
Travel
No one
Can tell you
How many
Dreams
You can have
Because
You can have
As many as
You want
As long as
You are
Willing to reach
For them
They are yours
To take
Make your own
Path
Write your
Own story
Use your heart
As a compass
Your spirit
As your strength
Fill your mind
With as much positivity
So when
You are
Faced with people
That want
To stand
In your way
Screaming at you
That you
Can not do it
Know it is
Their failure
Talking
Not yours
Push through
They do not
Have a manual
There is
No right
Or
Wrong
Directions
In your journey
To how you
Get there
Just get
There
Nonetheless

“Silenced Screams”

I am
Tired of
Screaming
At the top
Of my lungs
Going hoarse
Yelling
Stop
Pushing
Pulling
Beating
On me
Blaming me
For what
I have not
Done
Shaming me
For who
I am
I am not
An object
No one’s property
I am human
Hear me
See me
Respect
My space
I am
Here
To stay
Even if
I am
Frightened
Of what
You have
Planned for me
Understand
I was not
Born
To be
Your victim
To be terrorized
To be treated
Like nothing
I am not guilty
Of anything
Besides
Existing
Give me
A fair hearing
An opportunity
To use my freedom
Of speech
To fight
For my honor
So I can
Protect myself
My name
My spirit
My body
From being shackled
To your hate
Let me
Be heard
Not judged
By whatever
Image that
You assume
That is me
Because of
My gender
My color
My religion
Get to know
Me
Hear my story
Before assuming
I am a danger
I am not
A collective
I am
A individual
See me
As that

“Vicious Intent”

Evil
Has been
Taking control
Of people’s minds
Since the beginning
Of existence
It tapers off
When people
Fight it
Then
It builds up
With strength
When people
Become compliacent
Growing into
A widespread
Rampant epidemic
Like a
Deadly virus
That kills
So fast
Pushing us
So close to
Worldwide
Annihilation
Where
Nothing
Or
No one
Will be
Standing
Bodies everywhere
No one living
Total destruction
Of all human existence
Because of
Sadistic humans
Thinking up
Remorseless ways
Of killing
Everybody
That does not
Fit into
Their agenda
Can anyone
Else
See this
Where things
Are going
Hate has
Created
Unlimited villians
People killing
Over stupid
$hit
Because of
Weakness
No conscious
Heartless intentions
Of madness
I wish
These twisted
People
Would
Live
Let live
And
Mind their
Own damn
Business
And
Not put in
Their two cents
About Someone
Else’s life
Unless it is
Needed
Building up
Not
Destroying
I wish
All could agree
To this
A world of
Peace

“Wondering Aimlessly”

Besides
The obvious
To be
A better person
Than yesterday
And
To listen to
Your heart
Love yourself
Love thy neighbor
Help others
Who need help
What is the purpose
Of this life
Where are the directions
What is the payout
How do we know
We are doing
It right
Which way
Are we suppose
To go
Because
Everything
Is up
In the air
It has to be
Something more
To life
Than this
Craziness
We are moving
Around
Like roaches
Waiting for
The lights
To come on
To scatter
Rising to go
To work
Beat the traffic
Only to
Chase
The dollar bill
Because
That is what
Runs us
Food
Shelter
Fun
Responsibility
And
Oh yeah
Make sure
To pay our masters
What quality of life
Is this
What is beneath
This chaos
I see
People
Like me
Standing
At a crossroad
Confused
And
Debating
What is next
Wondering
If it is better
To take
The road
That is
Already paved
Or
Set off into
Uncharted territory
Finding something
Yet
To be
Discovered
Like
Christopher Columbus
We are
Small specks
Of grains
In this universe
Moving around
Like dust
Funneling
Through the years
We are
Coming and going
Born
Moving fast
Only to
Get older
And
Wither away
Then
Be replaced
By another
Creation
Over and over
Repeating
A vicious cycle
To wonder aimlessly
Hoping
To get it
Right
And
Find out
What is
The end game
To this madness

“Permanent Death Scene”

This lifetime
And
The next
Could have
Went by
I still
Would not
Have phantom
Any of
These thoughts
Into existance
Until
I stepped back
To replay
Everything
About our life
You took
My hand
Kissed my face
Took my love
Deceived me
Stabbed me
In the back
Then had
The nerve
To ask
Why I hated you
It was because
You was
Someone
I loved
Someone
I trusted
Someone
I thought
Would not
Could not
Ever
Betray me
Yet truth
Did not
Stay covered
Like you
Thought
It would
It caused me
To stumble
Right over it
Onto your plot
Exposing you
For what
You are
A liar
And
Now
You are saying
Baby baby baby
Please hear me
But I am
Not about
That life
All that
Is left
To be said
Is your services
As leading man
Is up
For grabs
You are
No longer
Needed
Or
Wanted
Here
And
Your character
Will be
Permanently
Killed off
With no ghost
Scenes
To resurrect you
You are now
An out of
Work actor
Time to
Start your
Auditions
Elsewhere

“Lost World”

The time
I wish
We all
Could
Go back to
Was when
Children
Could be
Children
They stayed
Out of
Grown folks
Conversations
They played
Outside
Walked to
The corner store
For essentials
For the family
And
Rode their
Bikes
All over
The neighborhood
Without the
Fear of being
Kidnapped
Or
Murdered
A village
Is what
Looked out
For them
Big Mama
Was
Every old lady
That sat
On the window sill
Watching as
The children
Played
Stepping in
When things
Got hairy
First
Saying
Imma tell yo mama
Second
Spanking
Them
Then
Directing them
To go home
Where their mother
Was waiting
To spank
Them again
For embarrassing
Her
With their conduct
These are
The good old days
Missing from
Our communities
The forgotten
Powerful system
That was setup
Allowing neighbors
To be extended
Family
That cared for
One another
Giving parents
Relief
And
Support
To know
Their children
Were safe
On the streets
While they
Were playing
Tell me
Where did
This piece of
Mind
Go to
How did
This get shattered
Breaking up
A great system
Parents
And
Community
Working together

“Human Doormat”

How
Can you
Continue through
Life
Being
Disrespected
Unappreciated
Taken advantaged of
Everyday of
Your life
Question
When did you
Sorry
Do not answer
That question
Because
I have realized
Maybe
You have not
Noticed
That you are
A human doormat
So
I need you to
Come with me
Let me
Show you
Look in
This mirror
Do you see
Your dignity
Do you see
You are
Floating around
In denial
And
To be clear
Not the river
It is
Your form of mind
Your perspectives
Are off
When you choose
To please
Everyone
In this world
Not seeing
Your worth
By
Allowing
Dirt to
Be wiped
On you
Allowing
People
To walk all
Over you
Do you understand
Nobody
Will care
About your
Feelings
Being hurt
Or
See that
It is
Physically
Emotionally
Mentally
Wearing you out
Your kindness
Is beautiful
But
It is
Your weakness
To them
That they are
Willing to
Kill slowly
It is
Every time
They use you
Please
Stop ignoring
This
You can be
Kind
But
Be smart
About it
You are
A person
With feelings
If you do not
Speak up
No one
Will respect
Them

“First Impressions”

I forgot
Was it
Love at
First sight
When you
First saw me
What was
The exact
Words
That came
Into your mind
When you
Declared
To yourself
You had
To make
Me
Your woman
What day
Was it
I took
Your breath away
Made
Your heart
Stop beating
For just
A moment
And
Caused it
To restart
Again
As if a jolt
Of lightening
Shot right
Through it
Changing
Our life
For the better
Was it
After you
Noticed
That small breeze
Lifting my hair
Ever so
Gently
Into the air
Laying it
Across my face
Tinkling
My nose
Making me
Burst out
Into laughter
Causing
A milo second
Scene
That made
A lifetime
Of magic
For us
It had
To be hilarious
Watching me
Trying to regain
My composure
I know
You knew
Something
Because
You chased
Me down
To get my number
So I am
Curious
Now
I want
To know
How long
Did it
Take you
To know
In your
Heart
That you
Loved me
And
You wanted
To spend
The rest of
Your life
With me
I want
To remember it
From your
Perspective
What was
The lasting
Impression
That put
A permanent mark
On your soul
Making us
Be a made
Forever

“Faces Inside Shadows”

When you are
Sprinting
From the shadows
Trying
To escape
Your nightmares
Who are you
Running from
What is
Haunting
Stalking
Causing that
Fear inside
Of you
I see
The panic
On you face
So
What faces are
Surrounding you
What skeletons are
In your closet
That are
Peeking out
Scaring you
Into hysterics
Making you
A raving maniac
That is
Incoherent
And
Gasping
For air
Is it
Your enemies
Is it
Your victims
Is it
Your conscious
Because
I know
It is
Not me
Tell me
What can
I do
To help
How can I
Protect you
From the demons
Chasing you
How can I be
The
Heroin
In your story
I want to
Comfort you
Love you
Give you
Peace
And
Security
Please
Talk to me
I can
Be your
Haven
Your freedom

“You Fighting Dirty For What”

Some people
Get alot of
Gibberish
In their head
Inputted data
That causes
Alot of
Stupidity
Multiple errors
In decision-making
Situations
Too much
Unprocessed
Information
Hearing only
What they want
To hear
And
Trying to
Dictate
What
Another person
Deserves
Really
I ask you
What gives
Anyone
The right
To say
What anyone
Deserves
It is tragic
When people
Start a fight
That they are
Not meant
To be in
Doing too much
Being down right
Pitiful
And
Extra dirty
When another person
Is succeeding
To getting close
To their
Finish line
Why do
You need
To do anything
Deceive them
Knock them
Off course
Even
For a little bit
So you can
Get ahead
Do you
Not realize
No body is
In the same
Race
As you
Anyway

“Scent Of A Liar”

Be happy
When I choose
Not to be
Around that
Stupidity
Rejoice
Know I am
Counting
My blessings
I am content
I take it
As a vacation
From a bad
Performance
That is
Continuously
Performed
Every time
I am there
In its presence
I find
Peace
In the separation
My piece of
Heaven
On Earth
The one
Rare occasion
For me
To relax
And
Not be
Entangled
Into
Madness
Or
Whatever
Madness
That is
Brought out
Of me
I take
My peace
Seriously
I do not
Let anyone
Change
The frequency
To what
They
Think it
Should be
I voice it
Nicely
Then
Aggressively
Asking
Please
Do not
Attempt
To sabotage me
Telling them
It will be
Dangerous
Awakening
The predator
Within me
Because
It is
Waiting
For me
To see red
So it can erase
All voice
Recognition
Inside my memory
Making sure
No one
Will be able
To talk
Sense into me
Please understand
I hate when
My hairs
Stand on end
Tingling
When my senses
Adjust
Into an
Observant
Suspicious
Hot headed
Powerful
Weaponized
Person
In ready mode
To attack
Anyone with
The scent
Of a liar
On them

“All Kernels Are Not The Same”

Usually
When I speak
Whatever words
That just happen
To be
At the tip
Of my tongue
Are the one’s
To be said
But when
I write
It is more
Difficult
I have
To create
Something
So awesome
That will be
A wonderful
Haunting
That is
Easily
Remembered
That
Triggers
Forgotten
Memories
Buried
Deep inside
Someone’s head
So I take
Several pauses
Sitting in silence
So I can hear
What is screaming
Inside of me
Wanting
To get
Out of me
Words
That are
Eagerly
Popping
To the surface
Trying to
Get
Written
On paper
Then scrambled
And
Mixed
A million
Times over
Until it feels
Just right
To publish
To the public
Leaving
A piece of
Me
With it
A sliver of
My soul
To be seen
On the internet

“Be Senior Captain Of Your Plane”

Having
A little voice
In your head
Screaming
Yelling
Do something
Is frustrating
When you are
Barely holding
On to reality
As your anxiety
Increases
To a point
Of paralyzing
Your body
Stopping
Your mind
From getting
What it wants
For you
To grab
The controls
Pull
Push
Whatever
That can
Get the plane
To climb
To a higher
Altitude
So you can
Clear the mountains
In front
Of you
It is understandable
It is not
Easy
Flying
In a plane
With no pilot
You are scared
You are hesitant
You feel
Your body is
Not moving
And
Your eyes
Are not focused
Fixated
On the now
And
Not the later
Losing the hope
That things will
Get better
But when
Your options
Are only
Doom and gloom
You are either
Going to crash
Into
Those mountains
Or
Do a swan dive
Into
To the ground
Below
Because you
Ran out of fuel
Waiting too long
To make
A decision
So stop
Thinking about it
Just do
Live or die
Climb or fall
Get up
Or
Stay still
It is crunch time
At this moment
It is real
Be the pilot
Be in control
Of you
Pull up
Clear
Those obstacle
In front of you
And
Move on to
The next
Until you have
Solved
All of them
Becoming victorious
Over your
Fear
Of failure

“First Task Get Up”

I just
Need to take
One step
Then another
Then another
Until
I am able
To run again
Towards the
Destination
I need to
Get to
In my head
If only
I put
These legs
Over the edge
Of the bed
Stand up
Stretch
Walk to
The bathroom
Brush my teeth
Take a shower
Go to the closet
Get dressed
Begin the day
With breakfast
Go outside
Let the sun
Shine
On my face
Instead
I keep
Dreaming
I am not up
I am not
Out of bed
Because
It is
Too often
Now
I lay
In bed
Drifting along
This path
Limboing
In this life
Not living
Slowly dying
But
Not dead
Just
Hindering fate
Being my
Number one
Enemy
Trapped in
My own head
And it
Is sad
I keep
Hearing myself
Saying
That
I am
Playing with fire
Yet I can not
Get off
This emotional rollercoaster
Is not fun
Getting high
Only
To crash
And burn
Below
Finding yet
Another weakness
Instead
It comes
And goes
As it pleases
Leaving
Without a trace
Becoming another
Disappointment
Another
Day
I let
Get away
Waiting to
Begin
Another tomorrow
To try
To get motivated
And
Make more excuses
Why yesterday
Was not the day
Why today
Is not the day
To get up
Playing the same
Old record
Trapped in
My head
With no mojo
Because
It ran away
Again

“I Wear My Hats Proudly”

I am told
My facial expressions
Are priceless
I wish
I could see
What
The person
In front
Of me
Is seeing
But maybe not
Because
People
Have told me
I come off
Mean
When I am
Not trying
To be
But
Anyway
That will not
Change me
Love me
Or
Hate me
It makes no
Difference
Because
I am
Who
I am
I can be
Harmless
I can be
Ruthless
When I open
My mouth
Sometimes
My roar
Comes out
Silent
Until
The volume
Is turned up
When my opinion
Is asked
I say
Friend
Or
Foe
Be cautious
When you step
Beyond
Those boundaries
My truth
Is not
For all
And a lie
You will not
Hear from me
I do not
Do fake
I do not hold
My tongue
For anyone
You ask
I answer
And
Be prepared
Expect my truth
If you want
A lie
Ask another
Because
I do not
Kiss
No one’s @ss
And
Hold their hand
When the
Truth is
What they need
To hear

“Your Beef Has No Seasoning”

Gossiping
Whispering
Rumours
Start battles
That end up
Growing into
Century old wars
And
No one is
Giving answers
To Questions
Saying
We can not
Handle the truth
But what
We see is
Alot of
Collateral damage
Left in its place
They are
Killing off
People
Who were
Never enemies
In the first
Place
Because
Unchecked facts
Needed to
Spread
Like wildfire to
Feed
Hate
Insecurities
And
Doubt
So it could
Trigger
Fight
Or
Flight
Response
Inside of us
Do you not
See that
Think for
Yourself
Make decisions
Based on
What is in
Your chest
Use your
Common sense
It will
Always push you
To be
A better version
Of yourself
That will
Stop you
From getting
Hung up
On stupid
Childish beefs
Between someone
You never met
Check your facts
That is all
I ask
Do not season
A beef
That will
Never be
Yours to eat

“Based On Individuality”

If you put
A label
On me
Without
Trying
To get to
Know me
It will be
Your lost
Not mine
Because
I am
More than
What you see
I am a
Acquired taste
Only a sensitive
Palate
Will understand me
My personality
My morals
My values
My attitude
I have
My reasons
Why
I have them
Come and sit down
Have a conversation
With me
And
Witness
First hand
So you
Can comprehend
The truth
I bring
I am not
An object
With a price tag
I am
A colorful person
Inside
My skin
And
I only wish
You look
Beyond it
See it
As a casing
That is just
Holding me
Together
THE END
Stopping your
Misjudgment of me
And/or
Hindering
Our Process
To progress
Into being
Something
More than
Strangers
Working
To be
Good friends

“Thin Line Of Trust”

Do not make
A choice to
Omit caution
In your steps
Or
You will be
Reassessing
You life
After
Accidentally
Allowing
A Wolf
Dressed in
Sheep’s clothing
In your mix
Trusting blindly
On faith
Will get you
Stabbed
In the back
So
Stop taking
Shortcuts
Do not throw
Caution into
The wind
When it comes
To your trust
Your trust
Must be
Priceless
Not bought
Not sold
To sad cases
Or
Given freely
To those
Of the
Same bloodline
Because of
Obligation
If you want
To give
Your trust
To someone
Be careful
Choose wisely
Do not trust
Everyone
Because everyone
Is not worthy of
Your trust
And
If you still
Do hear this
Advice
Then I
Suggest you
Get your
Affairs in order
Because this
Will be
A quick
Yet
Gruesome death
Bones crushed
Blood splattered
All over
The place
Concrete covered
Like a painting
With no face
Because you
Did not understand
To protect
Yourself
And
Weed out
The ones
That do not
Have your
Best interests
In their heart
Be picky
Be cautious
Choose wisely
Because people
Are people
Some evil
Some not

“Sexy Illusions”

Can you see
The frame of
References
Has become
So abstract
That the majority of
Society
Has gotten
Their perspectives
All twisted
And
Out of whack
Using
Man-made tools
To deconstruct
Or
Cover up
What was
An original
Masterpiece
He
Made no mistakes
He took his time
To create
Just that
And
It is a shame
People are
Altering his design
Through
Plastic surgery
And/or
Caked on makeup
Which
Only changes
Everyone to
Somewhat of
A copy cat
It is so sad
So many people
Think they
Do not need
To be theirself
There are so many
Natural beauties
This world
Is destroying that
Originally is good
And
Understand that
By changing
Your face
Your body
Does not fix
What is broken
Underneath that
Nothing
Is ever
Erased
Just covered up

“My Defenses Were Defeated”

It was
A living
Hell
To be
In a
Freezing
Jail cell
All alone
With no heat
I was
Losing my sanity
I was
So far gone
Paranoia
And
Delusions
Came over me
As I began
Asking icesickles
To be friends
With me
So I would
Have someone
Or
Something to
Watch over me
And
Those silly
Thoughts of
Being rescued
Or
Being released
Became
The plot
To a nightmare
So to speak
Will I
Won’t I
I felt hopeless
I was filled
With negativity
There was
No escape
I had
To adjust
To this fate
Day in
Day out
Talking
Through the darkness
As if someone
Could hear me
Feeling
Discouraged
Because I had
No reponse
It was just ice
I was not stupid
But to my surprise
My cries were heard
My prince
Came for me
Crashed
Through the walls
Of my defenses
And
Took me
Into his arms
Pulling me
Into a warmth
I had ever felt
Before him
It wrapped
Around me
Like a blanket
Melting
Everything
Inside of me
Setting me
Free
As I listened
To him heartbeat
That was
So strong
And
Beating
For me
