Artistry Dec 2014
Could it be how I was raised that developed the attitude?
Designed to go the distance displaying my aptitude

This world is an enigma, don't get lost in the labyrinth
Feel like I'm fine china tossed in the cabinet

Self-esteem and self worth is self made
Living in the struggle like a bad hand, but well played

A human race more into partying and self destruction
Bottled emotions released for self construction

My motto is do me and the right people will follow
Hit you in the head with reality uneasy to swallow

These trials and tribulations remain a constant on the daily
From the snap of the ball to the grave when you hail Mary

Poetry is my saving grace, my perfect place
When I need to relate or for saving face

Lust, jealousy & envy makes  them be a friend to me
Make sure you keep your foes close or the end of me

The chase for woman with taste forbidden
Downfall, whatever it takes for winning

The thrill of victory, agonies of defeat, gradually to my peak
Run this like track & field there's no need to run heats

I'm fine tuned, shine like the beginning of June
Burn you to ashes, Florida bakes when its high noon

Tell me what's rain to a typhoon? A casted shadow on a full moon?
Eclipse reigns like a monsoon!   *(official line right here)

Bringing the pressure like a desert heat, drop you to one knee
Casting illusions like you proposed to me

Be who you are reach the heights where you suppose to be
Words will leave you staggering from the whiff of potency

Love w/ potion number nine, smoother than calamine
Turned my heart upside down, bottom, my valentine

Put it your all and fall hard, don't give your best its on to the next
Separated by genitalia just an opposite ***, same intellect for respect & *
***


The body is truly a temple, built for longevity
Let your spirit on this earth proclaim it now, heavenly

Age making us wiser in this body as a lifer
Healthy/active lifestyle on my Popeye, time to pay the piper

— The End —
