What have I been
Sitting in
It is all over me
Such viscosity
What has
It all
Cost me
Wallowing
In it
Have you
Ever just
Heaving cried
With it
Bathed
Within it
Look at her
Then at him
Dripping from
Their
Very skin
I'm crying
In it
I'm crawling....through
But soon
Will hit that wall
And I'm fighting
Back not holding
To hope
I'm free from it
Most not
I'm free and it
Caught my heart

Jim Beam on ice
Cola with ***
Tequila shooters
I plan to get numb
Let me get some
Schnapps that hotdamn
I'm gonna keep going
Till I'm hammered man


Turn up the music
Start making alibis
Cause after tonight
I'm gonna make my goodbyes
Been nice knowing ya
But do me right
Give me ah
JIm Beam on ice.

Grand intervention occurs when I sleep
The words are from a spiritual depth
The feelings engrossed, are steely ****
Driven by such I write in the dark
I have done it again the next great Poem
Epic creation I know it'll slay them
I finish the last line and adjust in bed
The journal on the floor to darkness I tread
Now awake I read the great work
And it sure reads different I feel like a ****
Yet i must not deprive anyone my latest masterpiece
So i humbly submit this poem at your feet

I want to be
Invisible;
Man
You dig?
You ...
See
Can't see me
Mo'fo
Hell
No
Can you
,,read betwixt
The lines
Like an Universal
Monster
Dracula
Or Frankenstein
I'm invisible


Man

Do you look out from where you stand
and shout out your decree?
Do you look
only
out
and not within
When making such a scene ?
Are there higher points that you could reach
Where the view is clearer still?
With new eyes you begin to see
How your perspective shapes your will.
Higher platues away from your phones
Things found in dusty books
When men of wisdom laid stepping stones
That not many of today have took
The thing about these paths are
They never end
There are millions of stones to be laid
Perhaps by your hand
Take that first step and let the journey begin.

Us and them
Divide and conquer
Right
But who holds the knife?
Who benefits?
Not you
Not me
Together
Yell it
Together
A house divided
Cannot stand
You can lean on me
I can reach out
to you
I don't care about your
Skin
Or where you've been
You are a citizen
That's where
we begin
United

He's a dirt bag an
A-hole
Tries to act like a
Navy seal or Evel Knievel
He's got a nice car
And cheap hair
He's got an angel
Next to his chair
What's she doing with a creep
Like him can't she see he's paper
Thin
He's plastic
He's a Ken doll
He ain't got no class at'all
Then why
Is she with that guy
If shed spend
just one
day
with me
Shed find out what she's mis-
sing
I'd treat her right
Cause
I got soul
hard as steel
I Ain't  plastic
I'm real
I'd be more classy
If she would ride with me
Why oh why
Is she with that guy
