I don't know karate
But I'm choppin' ham
Into itty bitty pieces *****
So much sodium
Making dead bodies twitch
Dance to the pandemonium
Pizza in the toaster
Why you always hatin'
You don't even use a coaster
All that cheese ain't even permeatin'
If I'm gonna give chase
Gonna need red bull by the case,
Outta breath
But not out of bread,
Caesar dressing
Soda can pressing
Coat drumettes in blue cheese
Leave crumbs at their knees,
This meal is too rich like valet
But I got that entrance fee
Call it a Warren Buffet
Mmm mmm gawd ****...

Esta foto
Como me cae,
Cuetes al aire
Explosión tras explosión
Reventón tras reventón,
Mira hacia el cielo
Nubes de Hiroshima
Obliterando qué?
Las aspiraciónes
Llueve inspiración
Belleza como cual?
Ninguna comparación,
Un amanecer
Un atardecer
Vida de una flor
Enbotellada en una figura
Como una galaxia cósmica
En el lente de un telescopio
Se me escapa suspiro tras suspiro,
Anhelo por vivir
Simplemente porque
Existes tú...


This image
How it strikes me,
Rockets to the sky
Explosion after explosion
Shock wave after shock wave
Look to the heavens
Clouds like Hiroshima
Obliterating what?
The aspirations
It rains inspiration
Beauty like no other?
No comparison,
A break of dawn
A sunset,
Life of a flower
Bottled in a figure
Like a cosmic galaxy
In the lens of a telescope
Sigh after sigh escapes me,
I thirst to live
Simply because
You exist...

Promises are nothing
But lies
That haven't come true,
But with you
Promises are nothing
But what ifs
That became the truth,
Without you
I do not notice the stars,
But with you
They twinkle just a little brighter
And the mystery is there
In every little thing
Because of you,
Haven't held your hand
But you have my heart,
And I'll stand by you
Even if you walk faster
And I trail
Ever loyal,
Doubts settle
To the bottom
Of my mind,
If you at least smile
Every once
In a clear starlit night...

Veni vidi
And she
Conquered me,
What plans I wrought
Like Vesuvius
Dissolved the land,
Entombed the people,
And ashes will still rain
A reminder,
Can I
No longer forge ahead
Without her?
A master planner,
What others seek
Have I found?
Though unlike dreams
That fade
As the sun rises
She is brighter than,
And maybe
Even if
There is no empire
Vici,
She is my world
And I am
A constant satellite...

She's looking
For her Cali King
The one to endure
To hold her
In comfort
To support her
Meet every need,
The one to lean on
To stand by her
And grow
Through the hard times,
And the good
The thick
And thin,
By her side
Through
The sweet
And bitter
Sturdy
And dependable
No matter
What the spill
Each and every
Tear and thrill
Always and forever
Till either is laid
To rest,
Maybe she'll just settle
For a couple pillows
And this mattress...

I didn't say
Goodbye
The best way
I knew how,
I said it
With my heart
Stuck in my throat
And tears
In my eyes
Reigned back
Like many angry horses
Held at bay,
I drove home
In silence,
Feeling waves
Of emotion
Reverberating
In the sobs
That I could not muffle,
On my couch
I curled up
Into a ball
And slept,
How would I
Wake to a cloudy day
When I expect her
To shine through,
Like she has every day before?
But she's gone,
And my storm begins...

Restless
She paces
Lioness in a cage,
But there are no locks
No doors
No prods or anything to hold her
It's all dreams
Whips of desires
Chains of need
For a change of scenery
The feral tempest calls
From within her
The soul seeks
And her mind yearns,
Wide plains
As far
As her heart can see,
To run amongst
To leap free,
What no hunter
Can understand,
Love her but leave her wild...
