So What Would You Say... ?
If You Had The Chance...
To Speak To... YOURSELF...
In Your Younger Days... ?!?

Would You... ?
Choose To ADVANCE....
Your Mental State... ?
Or Would You Relay... ?
A Way To Earn WEALTH...
So That You Could Change...
How You Live Today... ?!?

Well That Would Indicate....
A LACK of... " Faith "...
In The Choices You've Made...
And Where It Is You Lay...
And WHO It Is You've LAID... !!!!!!

Well Now I Would Say...

" Make LOVE To The Ladies,
BEFORE You Have Babies !

By THIS I Mean...
Take TIME To GLEAN...
What It Is SHE SEES...
As A LOVING Family... !!!

DON'T JUST RUSH IN...
Because of What You THINK...

If You Have DOUBTS...
Then THRASH THEM OUT... !!!!!

Before You Find...
That She's NOT Your Type... !!!

... CUT OUT The Lies... !!!

Let TRUTH DEFINE...
The Path You Find...
To Live Your Life... !!!!!

REMEMBER THAT Some...
WILL... RUN Their GUMS... !!!

To Try To IMPRESS...
When They Have LESS... !!!

LESS Than... YOU...
BELIEVE That's TRUE... !!!

So... ALWAYS Be Gracious...
When Dealing With HATERS... !!!

Cos' You'll Find Their...
.... Brain Status....
Is On A... HIATUS... !!!!!

Because.....
MOST OF Their Thoughts... ?
Come Out of THEIR ****... !!!!!!

MANY A FOOL Will Try To PROVE...
That They've Been Schooled...
In... ALL THAT's Shrewd....
When... ISSUES RULE... !!!
The Way They Move... !!!!!

Some ARE Cool...
BUT Only A FEW... !!!

DON'T Sign Contracts... !!!
To Join With Mans'...
Who CONTROL Gangs...
With SCISSOR Type Hands... !!!

They'll CUT You OFF...
Just Like Bernie MADOFF'...  
Once You've Been USED... !!!

DON'T Be Confused... !?!?!
THAT's... FUTURE News... !!!!!

STAY TRUE To YOU... !!!
DON'T Follow Crews... !!!!!!

Lead YOUR OWN Path... !!!
And Follow YOUR HEART... !!!

And ENSURE That You HAVE...
By KNOWING Your Math... !!!!

PROTECT Your Cash... !!!
If You Get To Be A Man...
Who AIN'T POOR Like That... !!!
And Have A Fair Amount...
When HOUNDS SURROUND... !!!

DON'T Beg Steal or Borrow... !!!!
Or Carry Your Sorrow... !!!

Learn To Swallow...
Instead of Wallow...
In Pity Or Tomorrow...
You'll End Up Feeling...
... HOLLOW... !!!!!

Emptiness Leads.......
To The Type of Sprees...
That You DON'T NEED... !!!

LISTEN UP TRUST ME...... !!!!!!!!

I Can See That You Feel...
That People AREN'T Real... !!!!!
Well Here's The Deal... !!!!!

A LOT of People... "conceal"...
Who They REALLY ARE... !!!

So Just Be... " SMART "...
When They EXPOSE Their CARDS... !!!

The TRUTH WILL OUT... !!!
DON'T You EVER Doubt...
That Lies They... "Hide"...
WON'T ONE DAY Find...
Their Way To The LIGHT... !!!!!

Where... " TRUTH and RIGHTS "...
SHINE Like.... SUNLIGHT.... !!!!!

And EXPOSE Their Crimes...
Like.... " C.S.I "....

FORGET THAT Line... !!!!!!!!!
Cos' That's For PRIMETIME...
In The Future Alright... !!!

Don't Be TOO ******* Yourself... !!!
..... Have A LAUGH..... !!!!!

Cos You're STRONGER Than Most...
And That's NO BOAST.... !!!!!

You'll Hear A LOT of Quotes...
That'll ROCK Your Boat.., !!!

But You'll STAY AFLOAT... !!!

So Just REMEMBER And NOTE...

That... Like *******...
EGO's Fry Brains... !!!!!

And Then They Make CLAIMS...
That Are... INSANE... !!?!!

Things REALLY WON'T Change...
When It Comes To RACE... !!!

Son Your BLACK Face...
Will HAVE TO Sustain...
A LOT of IGNORANCE...

It's A Human STAIN...
From Which Some...
... WON'T REFRAIN... !!!

And Sadly WILL Defend...
EVEN When They Have NO CASE... ?!?

DON'T LET Your Anger...
... "CONTROL You"... !!!!!

DON'T **** That Hammer...
Just REFUSE Those Tools...
That... KILLERS USE... !!!!!

USE Your HEAD... !!!
And Try USING A PEN... !!!

Because YOUR Poetic PATENT...
May Well Just Be Your TALENT... !?!

Use It WISELY... Use It NIGHTLY...
Use It Like Your Name's RON ISLEY... !!!

LOVE Your Mother...
Like She LOVES YOU... !!!
DON'T Let ANY SUCKER...
Come Between You Two... !!!

She's Gonna NEED YOU...
MORE THAN You Know... !!!!!

Let Your Father GO.....
And REFUSE To FEUD... !!!

Just Be.... COOL....
And PATIENT TOO... !!!

And NOW Here's The...
... " FINAL THING "...
That I'll Say To YOU... !!!!!

When You Are LOW...
And Feel... Sad And Blue...

It'll Work Out FINE... !!!
RELAX Your Mind... !!!!!
Just LIVE YOUR LIFE..... !!!

Just Like THIS Script...
That Came From THIS...

Speaking To... ME...
In A Time and Space...
Where The Question Would Be...

Now That You Are Face To Face...
With The Virge of YESTERDAY....

… In All HONESTY...

" What Would You Say ? "
As a man who never wanted children, this is I guess, as close as i'll ever get, to having those conversations that parents have with their children, I also found it to be an interesting way to explore, and look back at one's own life too !

Yesterday Was A Day...
When Things Went SMOOTH... !!!

Made Some Early Moves...
Cos' I Had Bills To Pay...

First Off Hit The Bank....
NO... NOT like That... !!!
Had To Get Some Cheques...
And Then I Have To Say...

One of The Management...
Approached And Then Said...

"Sir please walk this way,
what is it you're needing,
from our branch today ?"

He Took Me To His Office...
WITHOUT Judgement NONSENSE... !!!

We Chatted For A Bit...
About Bajan' Living...

Then He Set Me Up...
In A Way That Was RIGHT... !!!

Moved On Paid My Debts...
Before DISCONNECT Threats...
Were The Next To Be Sent... !!!!!

Next Thing My Man Called...
And Said In His... TALK...

That He Needed A Favour...
He Wanted Some Food...
That Had... ITAL Flavour... !!!

I Said....

"Okay cool,
I'll meet you in a few !"

So... Off Into Town...
No Time To Wear Frowns... !!!

He Made A Quick Stop...
In A Bar And Strip Spot...
And Then We Moved On...
And Hit My Mans' Block...

We Parked Up And CHILLED...
... Pon' Top of The Hill...
And Then Had Some Food...
To... HEIGHTEN Our Mood...

We Then Sat With Men...
And Let Talk Begin....

Music Was Playing...
That Had Men Relaying...
Their Views About Artists...
And Gangsta Type HARDNESS... !!!

We Talked About...
..... " SCARFACE ".....
And Snorting *******... !!!

And How... In His Case...
What He Did Was INSANE... !?!

The Next Thing You Know...
Dominoes Started Playing...

See This Is Some Prose...
To Show it's NOT GHETTOS... !!!

Just... Different Zones...
Where People Make Homes...
And Keep Their Friends CLOSE... !!!!!

NO... FANCY Stilettos...
Or BLING Was On SHOW... !!!

Just Cool Vibes And GOOD TIMES... !!!!
While Young Children ROAMED..............

Rhydems' Dem' Runnin'...
While Men Started CUSSIN'... !!!

As Dominoes SLAMMED...
And... BIG TALK Began... !!!!!!

Lyrical JOKERS...
Who Mostly Were Smokers...
Wid' Lyrics That Hit...
Like... COMEDIC Scripts... !!!

A Dog Got A Lik'...
of Food And Went IN... !!!!!

Then Women Passed Through...
And Played Dominoes Too... !!!!!!!!

The Mood Was Just COOL... !!!
As I Became SCHOOLED...
In... Simple Block Living...
That Is NOT FORGIVING... !!!!!

But TRUST In This Verse...
These People... To Me...
Were Cool And Happy... !!!

WITHOUT LOADS of Money...
And... Homes By The Sea... !!!

These People Are WEALTHY...
In... DIFFERENT Ways... !!!!

Their Children Are HEALTHY...
And Find Ways To PLAY...
WITHOUT... Iron Gates...
Up In Some FANCY Place... !!!!

As Day Turned To Dusk...
And Moonlight Came Up...
The Vision Was Something...
My Words CAN'T Speak of... !!!!!

It Just Felt Like NOTHING...
Could Leave Any BLOTS...
On Chillin' With People...
On My Brothers' Block... !!!

But Next Thing You Know...
We Hear...

... " Look A Ting' ! "...

One of The Children...
Had Quickly EXPOSED...

That A... BIG CENTIPEDE...
Was RIGHT BY Some Toes... !!!!!
Now As Most Bajans' KNOW...

That Means MOVE YOUR FEET...
And Move QUICKLY YO... !!!!
Cos' A Bite Is NOT NICE... !!!
And Can STING For SOME TIME... !!!!!

It Quickly Got KILLED... !!!
And Then We All CHILLED...
And Then I... Hit The Road...
As More Dominoes Flowed...

I Got Home And Filled...
My Eyes With A Film...

Star Trek Into Darkness...
But NOTHING Was Heartless...
Within... Yesterday... !!!!!

Today is A New One...
But These Words I MUST SAY... !!!

People... NEED To STOP... !!!
All This LOOK WHAT I'VE GOT... !!!

Because People With LESS...
SURVIVE On These Blocks... !!!

WITHOUT ALL The Blessings...
of Cash And NICE Settings... !!!

But THEY Are OKAY... !!!!!
And YES Have Some Ways...
That Seem OUT OF PLACE...
If Where YOU WERE Raised...
Was Kept................... WELL AWAY... !!!!!

From Hustles And Struggles...
That... MANY Have Faced... !!!
And STILL DO... TODAY... !!!

So You RICH FOLK Should Know...
That These People AREN'T LOW... !!!!!

And just Might Show MORE GRACE...
If YOUR GREED Was... DISPLACED...

And Just Like... " Ackroyd "...
Your TRADES Like Your Place...
Were TRADED... OKAY... !!!!!!

What I Saw Was PEACE...
And LOVE On DISPLAY... !!!

And That Made Me HAPPY... !!!!!!
Because It Feels GREAT...
For Me To... Now State...

That... BEFORE I've Aged...
... And Faded AWAY...

For A CHANGE I CAN Say...
It TRULY Was COOL To Have....

" One of Those Days "............
Just a cool days movements in Barbados !

Now I’m A...
DEEP Thinking Guy... !!!
When It Comes To Life...

So That’s CLEARLY WHY...
My Rhymes DON’T SHINE... !!!
In The Minds of The BLIND...
Who Are Part of Mankind... !!!

Who Run DEEP Like FINES...
That Are Now Applied...
For Just Being OUTSIDE...
In These Corona Times... !?!

I Have NO Wife Because Now I Find...
That The Types That I’ve Liked...

Are The NASTY Type... !!!
Who Are PRETTY But SLY...
And Like LIGHT Skin Types...
With DEEP Monetary Ties... !!!
Or... Drug Dealing Vibes... !!!

So Now I’m A WISE Guy... !!!

And Choose To Ride ALONE...
WITHOUT These **’s In Tow... !!!

Who Are DEEP With LIES...
And Spreading Their Thighs...
For These HUNGRY Guys... !!!

Who Are DEEP With DECEIT...
To Get To See Their *******... !!!

While ME...
I’m Now DEEP With REALITY... !!!

NOT Fallacies Or Fantasies...
That Now Keep Causing...
...... TRAGEDIES.... !!!

Calamities And INSANITIES...
That Are DESTROYING Humanity... !!!

It Just... SAD To See...
Things Now Get SO DEEP... !!!

That Young Black Teens...
Now DIE On Streets... !?!
Because of Gun Sprees...
And... VIOLENT Scenes... !?!

And That... HISTORICALLY...
When It Comes To SLAVERY...

There’s A History That...
Blacks CAN’T Bear To See... !!!
Or Indeed... BELIEVE... !!!

Because of...
African Dreams of UNITY...

As I Said I’m TOO DEEP... !!!
To Allow FOOLISH PRIDE...
To Keep The TRUTH Denied... !!!

Which Is CLEARLY WHY...
When It Comes To Black Minds...

MY STYLE And Use of Poetic Rhymes...
Is Just TOO DEEP...
For Those Who Read...

BIG VIRGE Poetry... !!!

Because It WON’T Concede...
To Following Black Sheep... !!!

When It Comes To...
Black ACCOUNTABILITY... !!!

Because My Brand of Free Speech...
Has A Style That’s... UNIQUE...

Just Like The Tunes...
By Guru And Preem'... !!!

So Is FAR From... Weak... !!!

But Folks TRUST Me...
Those Words Aren’t Speech...
That Are... EGO Driven... !!!

It’s Just That Things That I’ve Written...
Are Smitten With Visions...
That Lyrically GLISTEN...
Like A Moistened Kitten... !!!

Know What I Mean... !!!

You See... MY Poetry....
REALLY Does Go DEEP... !!!

Into Wordplay That TWISTS...
Because It... Enlists...
Thinking That's TECTONIC...
When My Mind Gets On It... !!!

Writing Scripts of Rhythmic Lyrics...
That Are... Fit For Music... !!!

And My Quotes Are SO DOPE...
They Go... DEEP Like Coc’...
Up An... ADDICTS Nose... !!!

So My Spoken Word Flows..
That Go DEEP Into Zones...
And ROCK Microphones...
Are Those I Expose...
In My Recorded Posts...
That Now Are Known...
... Across The Globe...
And That Is NO JOKE... !!!

So Now My Spoken Words ROAM...
..... Across Timezones......
FAR AWAY From My Home...
And My... Mobile Phone...

But Am Still NOT Well Known...
Like These... " Poetic Pros "... ?!?

But I’m Cool With That Though... !!!
Because I’m Getting OLD...
And Have CREAKING Bones... !!!
And DEEP Pockets In My Teeth...
That Now HINDER My Speech... !!!

But My Pen STILL KEEPS...
Producing Words Like THESE...
That Drop... REALITY...

In My Poetry Themed...
For People To See...
And ENJOY When They Read... !!!

Because Now I Have GLEANED...
That... Spoken Word Poetry...
of The... HIGHEST Quality... !!!

Whether Heard Or Observed...
When It’s Done PROPERLY... !!!

Is Something That TRULY...
When Written By... ME...
Expresses Thoughts FREELY...

So Can ONLY EVER Be... !!!

… Big Virge Verse...

That Is Just...

..... TOO DEEP..... !!!
It has been said to me on multiple occasions, hence this write !
Big Virge Oct 2020
I'm A NEXT LEVEL Writer... !!!
When My Mental INSPIRES...
...... " Lyrical Pictures "......
In My Written Scriptures... !!!

OLYMPIC Type Levels...
of Thinking That REVELS...
In EARNING Itself...
A String of GOLD MEDALS... !!!!

My Mental IS One...
That Hurdles And Jumps...

Like... OWENS and MOSES... !!!!!!!!

When It Comes To These CHUMPS...
Who Be DISSING My Poems... !!!!!!!!

NEXT LEVEL... They KNOW THIS... !!!
When My Words Start FLOWING.....................

THROWING Like Newton...
And Lyrically BRUISING... !!!

A Panther Whose Movements...
Are... NEXT LEVEL Suited... !!!

BESPOKE Like My Clothing...
And Words I Be QUOTING...

So YES I'm Like... HUEY... !!!
When I'm Called For DUTY... !!!
... Tunefully LOONIE... !!!
Done Hong Kong Like Phooey...

YES... This Flow Is SCREWY...
WITHOUT Bugs Or CHEWY... !!!!!!!
Cos' I'm The Black ***...
Who Shoots Star Wars Movies... !!!

... ONE of A KIND...
UNIQUE When I Rhyme...
Cos' My Mind LEVELS Flights...
When... TURBULENT Minds...
Attempt To Take Heights...
RESERVED For MADE GUYS... !!!!!

NEXT LEVEL Type Crime...
Gangsters CAN'T SUPPLY... !!!!!

Designed To... " downsize "...
This System INSISTENT.....
On LIMITING Thinking...

NEXT LEVEL Type Wisdom...
You Folks NEED To Listen... !!!!!!!
or Read These Words Written...

Cos' I Level Like SPIRITS...
With... Heavenly Lyrics...
Prepared To Bring SICKNESS...
To Those In The... " BUSINESS "...
Whose Levels NEED LIMITS... !!!!!

Like Tests Go With LITMUS... !!!!!!

My Levels Bear Witness...
To... DEITY Fitness... !!!

IMMORTAL So Witches...
Are Hunted And FINISHED... !!!
And Devils Are... LEVELLED...
And Left ALL DISHEVELLED... !!!

Do I Get A... " MEDAL "... ?
GOLDEN Or... Metal... ?!?

My Mental Now REVELS...
On... Lyrical Planes...
BEYOND The Lame Brains... !!!!

Could I Be INSANE... !?!
A Level... "CONTAINED"...
Because I Choose BALANCE...
AHEAD of PURE MADNESS... !!!!!

The Levels of Sadness And BADNESS...
I...................... BANISH....................... !!!!!

Because They Are VANQUISHED... !!!!!
To Levels That... VANISH...
From WITHIN My Sight... !!!!!

Visually BLIND... !!!
But That Level's FINE...
Because It's My Guide...
To... POSITIVE Vibes...

Levels of SMILES Where Living This Life...
Brings FREEDOM From... STRIFE... !!!!!

Like... Rays of SUNSHINE...
On... Bajan' Coastlines... !!!!!

Such Levels Are WHY...
I Sit Down and Write...

Because It's Like Wine...

FERMENTED And PRIZED...
By Tastebuds... REFINED...
For VINTAGE Type Lines...
Prepared Over TIME............................... .......

The Levels I Find...
Indeed Are SUBLIME... !!!

HOWEVER My Mental...
Is NOT Prone To MEDDLE...
Where ARROGANCE Settles... !!!

I Try To STAY... Humble...
To AVOID Finding TROUBLE... !!!

Where... JEALOUSY Lies... !!!

So... Levels of Rhymes...
I Write of This Kind...
Are Written For Minds...
Whose Levels Are HIGH... !!!

So They're NOT For WISE GUYS...
Or... SMART Alleck Types...
Who CLEARLY AREN'T Wise... !!!!!

They Seem To RESIDE...
In A World Full of PRIDE...
And IGNORANT Levels...
That KEEP Them uNSettLed... !!!!!

DON'T Be One Who REVELS...
Where Devils WILL MEDDLE... !!!!!

Let Your Brain Take Your Game...
To The... HIGHEST of PLANES... !!!!!!

And THUS You Can ******...

Up To...

... " The NEXT LEVEL "...
It's all about levels ... !!!
Big Virge Oct 2020
Ya Know Over The Years...
I’ve Had A LOT Heads Say...

That The Words That They Hear...
In My Wordplay Arrays...

Are Things That Display...
A... LOT of RAGE... !!!

So Let Me Quickly Explain...  
THAT... That’s A CLAIM...
That Is MISPLACED... !!!

Because The...
Rage From My Brain...

Is Really NOT Rage...
When It Hits My Page... !!!

It’s Much Much MORE...
Than... Words of War... !!!

It’s A Way To VENT...
What I Have Suppressed...
When... Having To Deal...
With Human IGNORANCE... !!!

That’s Been SO REAL...
That I’ve NEEDED To Express...
Through My Poems...
Thoughts That REST...
Like... Violence...
That I’ve Put ASIDE...
Throughout My Life...

But Have Put In Rhymes...
To Help CLEAR My Mind... !!!

Because DEEP Inside...
I’m A PEACEFUL Guy...
Who Has NO Wish To EVER Think...
of Violent Stings Or Killing Things... !!!

But WON’T Desist From Using Scripts...
To Show The SERIOUSNESS...
of My... DEEP FEELINGS... !!!!!!

Instead of Writing Things...
To Gain Peoples’ LIKING... !?!

Because My Dark Skin...
Has Caused PROBLEMS...
With... So Called Friends... ?!?

Who’ve Said Some Stuff...
That Was Kinda Rough...
And HARD To Hear... !!!

But Let Me Make This CLEAR... !!!

NOT ONE of These People...
Has Yet To DISAPPEAR... !?!

Because of EVIL...
And RAGE That REARED...
It’s... UGLY Head... !!!

Because of OFFENCE...
That I Chose To ACCEPT...

Instead of REACT...
And Act Like Klans...
of... Ku Klux Mans... !!!

Or The Type of Blacks...
Who Just Join Gangs...
To Then Make Attacks...
Against Other Blacks... ?!?

Because The Way That THEY RAGE...
Is A... Straight DISGRACE... !!!

And Some Are Now Names...
Who’ve Received ACCLAIM...
For EXPRESSING Their RAGE...
In The Songs That They Make...
That Have Gained Them Fame...
And Radio Play ALL OVER THE PLACE... ?!?

AND Earned Them Pay...
That’s WAY BEYOND Great... !!!

So You HYPOCRITES...
And Nowadays... “ Snowflakes “...

Who Believe That Rhymes...
SHOULDN’T Rage Or Display...
The Type of Vibes Where ANGER Lies...

Should RECOGNISE...
That If ANGERED Minds...
DIDN’T Use Their Pens...
But Used... VIOLENCE... !!!

As A Means To VENT...
Like Say... EMINEM...

Do You Think That You...
Would... Get AWAY...
With The Things That You Say... ?!?
That Are FAR From Humane... ?!?

That AREN’T...
Jokes In The Brains...
of The Types Who Create...
As A Way To ELEVATE...

Their Mental State...
From... Going To A Place...
Where Violence And Rage...
Go On The RAMPAGE... !!!

Cos’ It’s A Very FINE LINE...
That You Walk When You Try...

To... CRITICISE...
What A Person Creates...
In... Poetic Wordplay...

That Just Vents PAIN... !!!
And Is... FAR From Being...
What TOO MANY Now CLAIM...

At Least In... MY CASE...

As Just........

... “ The Rage On My Page “...
It's always funny to me, when people suggest that my poems are intense, or filled with rage !

Well, here's my reply to those who make that claim !
Big Virge Oct 2020
MAN..... !!!!
I'm SICK of All The CLAIMS …
People Make Nowadays … !!!

" CLAIMING They THIS ! "...
" CLAIMING They THAT ! "...

Talkin' Bout' How …
They Makin' Guns CLAP … !!!!!

And EMPTYING Clips … !!!
WITHOUT Cash For Bullets … ?!?

See These Are The FIENDS …
Who Talk of BIG Schemes …
Talk of Their Teams... !!!!!

But DON'T Have The MEANS … ???
To SUPPORT What They Speak … ?!?!?

CLAIMING They CHIC … !!!
When They And Their Clique …
Are CLEARLY Quite Weak … !!!
And Living In... " DREAMS " …

And Some Have The GALL …
To Run … FOOLISH Talk … !!!

"I think he's a *****,
who needs to take liks' !
The next time I see him,
he'll know what it is !"

Of Course ALL Their THREATS …
Are Made Behind … TEXT … !?!

Or Made To Their Friends …
As If That Gives STRENGTH …
And YES A DEFENCE … !!!
For ALL Their NONSENSE … !!!!!

I Wonder Sometimes … ?
Whether DEEP In Their Minds …
They … TRULY Realise …
That Threatening LIFE … !!!
Is A... Slippery Slide …
Towards The DARK SIDE … !!!
  
So While They CLAIM...
Their... " PRIDE "... !!!

I Claim NOTHING Like …
VIOLENCE As My Guide …
To … Living Life RIGHT … !!!

My Minds More Inclined … !!!
To CLAIM HIGHER Vibes …
Where TRUTH Is Expressed …
WITHOUT Facing Death … !!!

Now THAT CLAIM Has A DEBT …. !!!
They WON'T Want To Collect … !!!!!

I've Said It BEFORE … !!!
And I'll Say It AGAIN … !!!!!

The Threat of Such WARS …
Are Those With NO CAUSE …
And PRIDE FILLED NONSENSE … !?!

I'm NOW NOT AFRAID … !!!
Cos' I DON'T Like The STRAIN …
of …….. " IGNORAMUSES " …….. !!!
Trying To Mess With My Brain … ?!?

Now THAT'S Something I CLAIM … !!!
Pretty Much … EVERY DAY … !!!!!

Whenever My Pen...
And Wordplay Touch The Page … !!!!!!

It Dissipates......... Rage …................
That Dummies … inFLATE … !!!!!

Until Their HOT AIR...
Leaves Their CLAIMS …
….. Laid BARE ….. !!!

Some Show That …..
... " They're SCARED " … !!!!!!

And Just NOT Prepared...
For … Lyrical Wordplay … !!!
That Shows Where Me Dere' … !!!

UNAFRAID of The CLAIMS That Say.….
… ” Virge Should BEWARE ! " …

Because I CAN'T Hear Them …
From WAY.................. " Over There " … !!!!!

But Enough About Guys … !!!
What About … Girls … ?!?
Who Make LOTS of CLAIMS … !!!
About … " How Dem' Stay " … !!!

"I would never give him
the thing that he wants !"

"Okay babe, that's cool,
but, don't change your tune !!!"

That's Where It BEGINS …
But Then … LATER ON … !!!

"He REALLY Persisted !!!
our bond is SO STRONG !!!!!"

Now These Are The GLITCHES …
That Show Claims Belong …
In Those Who STAND BY THEM... !!!
Rather Than Take BACK-SHOTS … !!!

Sometimes It's Quite FRIGHTENING … !!!
How Claims just Get … DROPPED … !!!

As If They WEREN'T THERE … ?!?
And Went Up In Thin Air... !!!?!!!

Acting Like Children …
Who Know They're …
… " The VILLAIN " … !!!

When Evidence Leads …
To Things They've Been Doing … !!!

That Show That Their Movements …
Are NEEDING IMPROVEMENTS … !!!
And YES Some MORE Schooling … !!!!!

So Here's MY CONCLUSION …
On CLAIMS People Make …

For ALL OF OUR SAKES !

We Must STOP ABUSING …
... Each Other OKAY …. !!!!!!!!!

If Man TALKING STRAIGHT...
Affects Your Mind State … !!!!!

RELAX And Say...
... "Word Son"...
And Just Walk AWAY... !!!!!

Leave Man ALONE... !!!
And Deal With Your Own...
And Think On These Words …
That I Now … " RELATE " …

The TRUTH Sets Us FREE... !!!

And DOES NOT Concede... !!!
To PRIDE, Threats of Violence …
Or... " INSANITY "... !!!!!!!

It IS What It IS … !!!

DON'T Try To Flip Scripts … !!!

Stick To Your LOVED Ones...
And... LOVE THEM OKAY … !!!

Cos' it's Really NOT MAGIC …  
Just Ask … David Blaine … !!!

REMOVE LIES That LIE …
DEEP Inside Your Brain … !!!!!

And Show LOVE For Each Other … !!!
Cos' To Me … That's The Way … !!!!!

And Is Surely Something … !!!
That YOU Just Like … " I " … !!!!!
Should In TRUTH REALLY ….

.... " CLAIM " ….
Make sure you can, and DO, BACK UP what You CLAIM ... !!!

It REALLY Is...
An AMAZING Thing... !!!

To See How QUICK...
Some People SWITCH...
When PRESSURE Liks’... !!!

And NOT The Type of Pressure...
That Brings... BAD Weather... !!!

I Mean The Type...
That Affects Mankind... !!!
And Women TOO...
When They Switch Their Moods... !!!

In Times Like THESE...
Where A... VIRAL DISEASE...
Has... LOCKED DOWN Streets... !?!

It’s AMAZING To See...
How The LOSS of MONEY...

Has AFFECTED Heads...
Who CLAIM To Care Less...
About MONEY CHESTS And Bank Interest...

Because They SWITCH...
Like... IGNORANT Kids... !!!

When It Comes To CASH...
That They CAN’T Grab...
To Fulfil Their Plans...
To Do This And That...

It’s... Really SAD...
To See People Get MAD...
And... Start To Act...
Like An IGNORANT *****...
Who Is PRONE To SNITCH... !!!

Sometimes I DO WISH...
I Could Turn OFF The Switch...
That Inspires Scripts of Lyrics Like THIS... !!!

But The PROBLEM Is...
That It’s The Type of Gift...
That’s... HARD To Resist... !!!!!

When I Start To Think...
And Suddenly LINK...
My Thoughts With Ink...
Or Of Course... Typing...

Because of The SWITCH...
To TECHNOLOGICAL Things...
That Now EXIST Like This Virus Is... !!!

You See This Poetic Piece...
Has Been Inspired...
By The Things I’ve Seen...
Since This NEW DISEASE...

Has Started Putting OUT Fires...
of... Lives And Desires...

And BROKEN Dreams...
As Well As LIMITED Means...
of People Who NEED...
To Really Stay HEALTHY... !!!

Instead of Having To FEAR...
of Now Being TOO NEAR...

To... People Who...
Have Got THIS FLU... !!!

A SWITCH That In TRUTH...
Is Just NOT COOL... !!!
Because It’s Now REMOVED...

How We... TREAT...
The People We’d GREET...

BEFORE This Disease...
SWITCHED Societies...

To Be... DISTANCED Beings...
Whose Switch Is Leaning...
To... SWIFTLY DEMEANING...

... Historical Teachings...

Like Communicating...
WITHOUT All This... SPACING...
That’s Clearly FRUSTRATING...
A... LOT ot of Locations... !!!

Where They’ve HAD TO SWITCH...
Because They Were TOO QUICK...
To... RE-OPEN Things...

So Their Switch Now STINGS... !!!
And May Now Be Bringing...
A SWITCH In... THINKING...
As SECOND Waves...
Start To RAISE The STAKES...
ALL OVER The Place... !!!

Which Would Be A SHAME... !!!

Even Those Who CREATE...
Are SWITCHING In Ways...
That AREN’T So Great... !!!

Because They’re Trying To Play...
The Game In... NEW WAYS...

When Basically Things...
Will Remain The SAME... !!!

SWITCHING Up Names...
And SWITCHING Up Tracks...

Instead of Sticking To FACTS...
And NOT Trying To Act...
As If They’ve SWITCHED...
How It Is That They THINK... ?!?

I’m NOT Switching My Vibe...
From... REALITY Rhymes... !!!

Because... If The Cap FITS...
You KNOW You NEED To WEAR It... !!!

Because You CAN’T SWITCH Hit...
Like... BASEBALL Swings... !!!

Or Like Black Lives...
That Only Matter When We DIE... ?!?

By The Hands of A Guy...
Whose Skin Tone Is WHITE...
And Has POLICEMEN Ties... ?!?

That’s A SWITCH That MY MIND...
REALLY DOES NOT LIKE... !!!

What About Black Rhymes... ???
That DON’T Energise Vibes of Packing NINES...
And Running IGNORANT Lines About Gang Fights...
That SWITCH Like Tribes of The AFRICAN Type... !!!!!!!

That... DESTROY Lives...
And The Chance To UNITE...

I Mean... WHY OH WHY... ?!?

Do We SWITCH And Then DENY...
The TRUTH To Feed... LIES... !?!

In... Chatter That Matters...
About As Much As These SLAPPERS....
Or These... Young Gun Clappers... !!!!!!

Who SHOULD...
Choose To SWITCH Targets...
And STOP Being So HEARTLESS... !!!

And MAYBE Then Black Lives...
And The Minds of Whites...
Might SWITCH From Fights...
of The... RACIST Type... !!!

And Then Guys Like I...
WOULDN'T Have To Write...

About HYPOCRISY...
Within Our Human Breed...

Because We’d Learn To FORGIVE...
And NOT Have To Live...
Like Some Kind of SNITCH...

Who Is FAR TOO QUICK...
When PROBLEMS Persist...

To Start To TWITCH...

And Then SUDDENLY.....

........ “ SWITCH “.......
Well, one things fa' sure now, with all that this year of 2020 has brought, one of the biggest changes it's brought, has been the switching of peoples' priorities, and sadly, in many case, their attitudes towards each other !

Ya Know On My Travels …
I Now Sit in Sandals...
In Rittenhouse Park...
In … Central Philly …

But It's FAR From Chilly... !!!

It's The End of May...
On A Beautiful Day … !!!

I Hear SIRENS HARK …
Like A Shot In The Dark … !!!

Yet … NO WALMART...
And NO Gun Sounds … !!!!!
Dogs … ALL AROUND …
But … HARDLY A Bark... ?!?

****** Types of SO MANY KINDS... !!!
That It's HARD For My Eyes …
To Deal With The SIZE …
of … Some of The THIGHS …
These Girls Just CANNOT HIDE … !!!!!

YES Some Look NICE … !!!
But I'm NOT Surprised …
At The Fact That MANY …
Are WAY TOO HEAVY …  
For Me To Like …. !!!!!

I'm Playing The Sounds …
of The Man... Kev Brown …

But They Hardly Drown...
The Sounds That Surround …
From... PHILLY' Mouths...

The Accents DROOL...
And Sound Kinda Cool …
To A Man Like ME...

Whose English Speech …
No Longer Seems So Great INDEED …
I'm Now Travelling From …
Those BAJAN' Scenes …
of … BEAUTIFUL Seas …
And Fresh Sea Breeze... !!!!!!

Whilst Here In Philly …
I Can Feel The Breeze Squeeze … !!!
In Amongst The Trees …
of Much That Is NOT …

….. " Brotherly " ….. ?!?

But The Trace of **** …
Blows Like The Leaves …
In … Rittenhouse Square …

Where It's CLEAR Some Dare...
To …. LIGHT Up Trees ….
Where Park Rangers Be … !!!

It's A Thing of BEAUTY …
To Feel … SO FREE … !!!
On This Journey..............

That Has Taken Me …
And My … Voyeurs GLARE …

To The City of Philly …

And ………..

... " Rittenhouse Square "...
Just some observations of an afternoon chilling in Rittenhouse Park, in Philadelphia .....

Ya' Know When I Was Young …
There Was A TV Show …
That Was Quite Fun …

Because It Took The Ride …
Through Famous Peoples' Lives …

The Show Was Called …

..... " This Is Your Life " …..

I Figure Some Fa' Sure … !!!
May Well of Been The Type …
Where Some Were SURPRISED … !!!
By The Sight of Some Eyes …
That Once Upon A Time …
They DID … " DESPISE " … !!!

But Because of PRIMETIME …
Everything Was ALL SMILES … !?!

See My Mind Sometimes …
Deviously Designs ….
These Sorts of Rhymes …

But Back To The Topic … !!!
Because It's NOT Microscopic … !!!!!!

In Fact I'd Say … TECTONIC...
In The Way Some Lives Now Move …
So … Could This Be YOU … ?!?

The … " Badbwoy Dude ! " …
Who … Runs The Block …
or YES … "The Corner" …
of … DANGER-FILLED Borders … !!!

Where Guns Are Cocked …
Cos' Man Get RUDE … !?!

NOT The Type of Rude …
Most Are Used To … !!!!!!

But The Type That PROVES...
That All's NOT GOOD …
Within Your Hood … !!!

Or Are You The HEAD …
With The Type of Complex …
That Makes You Feel...

The NEED To IMPRESS …
And Constantly STRESS …
That You Make Deals …
Where Guns and BADNESS …
Are Your Daily Meal … ?!?

When In TRUTH Your Speeches …
LACK... Any Kind of REALNESS … !!!

Cos' Your Life's Design …
Is The WANNABE Type …
Where You Choose To Believe ….

YES … Your OWN HYPE … !?!

Until … REAL Gangsters … !!!
PROVE That You're A WANKSTER' … !!!
Because Your Lips May SINK Your Ship … !!!

Because of Talk About Things ….
That May Just Bring ….
Your Life To A HALT.
When You FEEL The STING … !!!

Or Are You The Guy … ?
With … Corporate Ties … ?

ALWAYS Looking FLY …
With Your TROPHY Wife... !!!

Family of..… FIVE …..
And Bits On The SIDE … !?!

Or Are You The Shy And LONELY Type …
Who Feels Like You DON'T Fit This life … ??!??

That's … MOST of us RIGHT … ?
... (Maybe That's just MINE !?!)...

SERIOUSLY Did I Just Write THAT LINE...
For The People of the World To SEE ONLINE... !?!

So Are You The Type … ?
Who's LOSING Their Mind … !?!

HOW Do You KNOW … ?
Come OFF THAT Road … !!!

Don't WE ALL Have Times … ?
Where Things Feel Like …
They Just … " DON'T FIT" …
With How We Want To Live … !?!?!?!

Or Are You Inclined … ?
To Believe In … I …
Rather Than … We … ?!?

So Prefer To.............. Ostracise.....
Rather Than  Join Teams … ?

OH SO YOU'RE THE PARASITE …
Who Is … ALL ABOUT ME  ... !!!!!
And Choose To Dine On Humanity... ?!?

If That's YOUR Life … ?
You Can KEEP It Alright … !!!

And I DON'T Have The Time...
To REALLY Tell You WHY … !!!

See I Was Just At Home Chillin' …
Trying To Get Some Shut Eye …

But Words Like These Kept Spinning... !!!!!!!!!
Where My Deepest Thoughts Reside … !!!

As If They NEEDED LIFE … !!!!!!
Which Made Me Sit And Write …

So Is …. " YOUR Life " …. ?
The Type That's Willing …
To DEDICATE Your Mind …
To Something So FULFILLING …
As Taking Time To WRITE …

Lyrics That KEEP SPILLING … !!!
From DEEP INSIDE Your Mind … ?!?

It Would Seem That Yeah... ?
I Am … THAT GUY … !!!!!

Who Writes Poems And Rhymes …
That Flow Like... Sands of Time...........................

To Share With Those Inclined …
To … Take The Time To Find …
The Things My Rhymes Enshrine …
Because of My Life's Design … !!!

See TRUTH Be Told …
As I Said Before …
I Was HAPPY At Home … !!!

…. Playing Music ….
But Then The Movement of My Thoughts...
Brought These Lyrics To The FORE...

So Now I DON'T KNOW … ?!?
How This Should END … ???

Okay … The SHOW … !!!
... That's Right … !!!

When You Take A Look Back …
At … Your Life's Track …

What Kind of Design ….  ?
Would TRULY Describe …
What Your Life's Been Like …

Through Words Like These …
Indeed ….. THESE FIVE ….. !!!!!

"Could This Be Your Life ?"
Life and how it can turn out, a subject worth writing about ......
Big Virge Oct 2020
Well It Seems Nowadays...    

THAT..." Black Lives Matter "..... ?
Well I'd Say THE HUMAN Factor...  
Is What We SHOULD RECAPTURE... !!!!!!!!  
IN FACT What I Mean Is... "Capture"... !!!  

Because My Lifes' Chapters...  
HAVEN'T SEEN Too Much Data...    
That Humans In Their Manner...  
Are Living By... That Standard...    

There's NO Doubting THAT... !!!  
When It Comes To ATTACKS...  
That Are Made Against Blacks...  

Humanity LACKS...  
What It Is To RETRACT...  
And.... RECOGNISE....  
That Di-vi-s-ive Vibes    
Are... TAKING Lives... !!!!!  
And DIVI-D-ING Tribes... !!!!!  

You See SUBJECT MATTER...  
I DEAL IN.... HAMPERS....  
Those Who Hanker...  
To Work With FAKE DATA...  

FAKE Like.... TANNERS....  
Standing By Standards...  
Doubled Up And Captured  
By Their...  Actions... !!!  

STICKING To Factions...  
Thought Waves FRACTURED... !!!  
BELIEVE ME Sadness...  
Forms Their MADNESS...  

Anger Now S C A T T E R E D ...  
TATTERED And SPLATTERED...  
Like Matter That's SHATTERED... !!!!!!  

You See... Subjects I Factor...  
In Thoughts That I Capture...  
Within My Lyrical...  
Are Criminally Cynical... !!!  
According To Political...  
Subjects INADMISSIBLE... !!!

In Verse of Mine EMPIRICAL...  
Because of THEM I'm CRITICAL.... !!!!!

Via Subject Matter That Simplifies Data...
They Use To Confuse Through NEW AGE Tools... !!!      

Where Matter Is Subject...  
To MUCH That INFECTS...  
Todays' Internet Heads...    

From Online ***...  
To Conspiracy Threads...  

And OF COURSE A WHOLE SET...    
of... " TERRORIST Trends "... !!!!!  

Now Police Have Been Left...    
FEELING Bullets Instead...  
of... Dishing Out DEATH... !!!

Whose Matter Will Be Left...  
To FACE Bullets of LEAD... !?!  

Or Bombs That NOW Defend... ?  
By Blowing OFF Peoples' Heads... !?!  

Something Like ALL These Rappers...  
Who CLAIM That They Are GANGSTERS...  

AND ****** Like Gun Clappers...    
Well Now Its CLEAR They're ACTORS... !!!!!
Whose Chatter Runs... FAKE Data...  

Their Lyrics Deal In... DEATH...  

" Bringing The Pain " ... Like ****'... !!!!!  
But NOT TO... RACIST Feds'... !!?!!  

So MUCH Like... " Them "...  
Things That They STRESS... !!!!  
In Their... " Poems "...  
Are In Need of YES.....  

... Auto CORRECT... !!!!!!  

For LIES They Tell...  
About How They FLEX... !?!

While Blacks With SENSE...  
Face THREATS From Them... ?!?!?  
For... Dealing In TRUTH...  
Instead of Tools...  
Just To Get Some Street CRED'... ?!?  

So Like Bernie Mac' Said...  
TOO MANY Black Youths...  
Are Becoming NEW FOOLS... !!!

They Just FOLLOW The Trends...  
To Get Themselves AHEAD...    

YES... Subjects I SELECT...  
May UPSET CERTAIN Heads... ?  

But NOT Quite Like... !!!  
The LOSS of A Friend...  
OVER... IGNORANCE Bred...  
From A DIFFERENCE of Opinion... ?  
Religion or Dominion...

Or The Skin That People Live In... !?!?!  

This Piece Has Got Me...    
........ " THINKING ".........  

That Things Are NOW...  
...... So SICKENING...... !!!  

That People REALLY NEED...  
Some Form of UPLIFTMENT'... !!!

Well YES That's TRUE... !!!  
But FACING The Truth...  
Has To Be The FIRST MOVE... !!!!  

But THAT With PROOF... !!!    

NOT Media News...  
With Views AskeW...  

Cos' I'm TELLING You... !!!  
They're Making Moves...  
...... AGENDA Fuelled......  

To Confuse And Sep-a-rat-e....  
Through Religion And RACE... !!!  

It's CLEAR There Are Scales...  
That NEED TO BE BALANCED... !!!

And Leaders Whose Actions...  
NOW NEED TO BE CHALLENGED... !!!!!  

So Let Me END This Chapter...    
By Simply Saying... THIS...  

REMEMBER There Are FACTORS...  
Beyond Feelings That... "Capture"...  
Your ANGER Into RAPTURE...    
That's MADDER Than The HATTER... !!!!!  

And FEEDS Like VELOCIRAPTORS... !!!!!  

So DON'T Deny The Crimes You See... !!!  
Because of PRIDE Or A COMPLEX That...  
You CHOOSE To.................. "hide"...................  

Take The Time To TRY...  
To... OPEN UP Your Mind....  
To TRUTH, Falsehoods And LIES...  

And DELVE INTO The DATA...  
Where The ONLY FACTOR...  
That REALLY Matters....  

Is The QUALITY of...  

It's....  

....... " Subject Matter "......
