Hear her soft lilt before espying her
from the promenade?

Listen carefully for mondegreen.
This morning she will come out
of the water, risen from froth,
made of the same elements
as Adam's Eve,
a pastiche dressed in summer's flurry,
transpicuous & clung-to,
amaryllises strung about
hair & thoughts,
the sinfully twisted scent
of Bergamot Orange
filling the nostrils as they flare.

Shall she succeed in coaxing you back
to a tree that once held such promise?
It's called Temptation for a reason.

the repetition of a repetition

the repetition of a repetition

the repetition of a repetition

which means:

doing drugs daily
being trapped on the quest
for the first high

Who they gonna tell to rap like this
You say I rap like crap but I like this
They rap the same I rap with game
I change my ways and don't sound the same
I sound like a new artist
I rap just like this
Hard beats and a voice like this
I get clowned and I get dissed
But I just like this, I don't care
You don't make tracks at all
What do you know, nothing at all
I just echo down the hall
I rap underground
No one know the sound
But one day I gonna be heard
And maybe you don't know the words
But that not the point, most my tracks you can
And, listen to them all, give them a try
I promise I tried and I do not lie
These lines I make on my own no ghost
These beats I seek but I make my own
On my phone they online my ringtone
Ya, ya
Who they gonna tell to rap like this
You say I rap like crap but I like this
They rap the same I rap with game
I change my ways and don't sound the same
I sound like a new artist
I rap just like this

I am unlearning you
The way I learn Spanish
Repeating your name
Until it sets on my tongue
Like caramel
And I trap it in my throat
River Sep 2019
is it wrong to believe every word
even though i know every word you speak
could very well just be
a trap
created to capture me?

Love is like a trap
and how you manage your step
If you make any mistake
You'll be get heartbreak

You call me pretty like it’s nothing
Good-looking when you don’t mean it
Honey on the fly trap
Keeping me sugar sweet stuck
