She says she loves me She says she wants to share all of her She says she wants me She says she wants to spend the rest of her life with me She says she needs me "I'm the greatest guy in the world" She calls me baby Ironically I share this name with someone else for she has said all of this to somebody today And I am 2000 miles away from what she says is love for me.

She says
gun shots feel the ears Of my young sisters Who have been conditioned to interpret Those shots as a mating call. Head aches cured with the medicine bottle But with side affects not by the entered purpose But hey at least working As are you til your 75 Ironic that's most black men die Don't take that from this Forget it Your an activists Self proclaimed to be with it I get it I get it the cool black cop But pulled me over cause my side mirror was missing you gotta be kiddin Your gold badge shines as if the LMPD Was in L.E.D. pretend you didn't say "Get on your knees" did I offend you officer? Oops seems as if you dropped this back of white by me I started to sneeze Must be allergic to this **** that he was blaming on me Do 15 year maximum security hot as hell got out bought bird and a cell Slowly crept up on officer Odel A flash was the last thing he saw Though i never thought I'd do it Somebody's little sister heard my Mating call.

The cycle
It's currently 4am, the time when words like night and morning are mistaken... for it is both, yet neither. tired moths fly rythmatically into the bug zapper. souls escaping their bodies, stale light absorbing their souls. their bodies fall painting meaningless obscenities in the smoke left behind. corpses covered by dirt... the grass weeps for thee. bodies hallow lifeless... empty I am empty... void of social dependence, but full of understanding. understanding my pulse is still rapid. if only I were tired what an overlooked luxury?

4am
Every morning I rise 6 am, almost like my body Was in tune with the sun No words said, just blinks and slow Movements As I log the smell of my breath In and out of memory Soggy blunts, cheerios,  and cigarette Smoke Ironically these things seem Fresh To me I Adjust to the beams Light brakes shadows casted by the blinds A shattered portrait of my face Reflects off my palmed screen Followed by a bird in flight This is the first time I'm reminded of you.
