no not now
no not never
waiting for the words
that are gushy and clever
And ever so slightly
In touch with the rest
Of the way things seem
It turns out to be less
Pressed by emotion
And powerful vibe
Stressed in commotion
Actually ****** and jive
Check the mic and step up to the plate
The bowl is empty because we already ate
So it's time to listen
As my rhyme scheme glistens
It's transparent what's missing
This is my poetic christening
Transitioning into position
And now it's over and that's ok
Because I completed my mission
Or at least I will someday.
