"krs" poems
I am the Poet, hear my siren’s song
My woven whispers ****** ways and words
Mesmerizing, you will feel you belong
Be part of an inner circle and be heard
Write with me, no lines will be false or blurred
Together we will create and be strong
There’s no need for pleasure to be deferred
I am the Poet, hear my siren’s song
I have been sad and alone way too long
Belonging together is most preferred
Creating brings joy, won’t you come along?
My woven whispers ****** ways and words
Take a chance and your senses will be stirred
Part of our circle, not lost in the throng
We are more together, grace is conferred
Mesmerizing, you will feel you belong
All ideas are welcomed, no thought is wrong
Just know this; your spirit won’t be interred
May our venture be successful and long
Be part of an inner circle and be heard
I am the Poet

Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul
Eros has flown, only philia remains
Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole
Distance creeps in; the heart is inconsolable
I am drowning in sorrow’s cold grey rain
Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul
Love is diminished, leaving a gaping hole
Deep inside. Our connection slowly wanes
Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole
I feel I am only playing a role
Toleration fades, leaves only disdain
Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul
Failed actions have taken a painful toll
Slowly dying, overtaken by pain
Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole
Future uncertain we’ve lost all our goals
This slow erosion lets sorrow’s madness reign
Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul
Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole

*Her's was a quiet love
filled with love letters
moonlight
and roses
His was a fiery love
filled with danger
rough kisses
and a certain violence
He gave her
the warmth she craved
through his fiery passion
without singe
She gave him
a cooling calm
soothing his ravaged soul
with her gentle breeze
Unlikely pair?
Most definitely...
But what a balance
they achieved
He was her fire
She, his cooling breeze*

So I’m Now An EXPONENT...
of Rhymes That Are POTENT... !!!
No Numbers or Quotient...
Can Limit Their Motion... !!!
INFINITE Like The Ocean...
Or Big Swarms of Locust... !!!!
FOCUSED On SHOWING...
How My Thoughts Be Flowing...
With Notions of Motions...
OVERTHROWING Like Boulders...
Dropped Onto The Shoulders...
of Those Who Are COLDEST... !!!!!!
When It Comes To Them Showing...
More Love For Life’s Soldiers...
YES Those Who Have SOLDERED...
This World For These... JOKERS... !!!
Who Deal In LOW Quotas...
of Hope For... Young Voters... !!!
They Make Things Seem HOPELESS...
But... NOT To EXPONENTS...
of Flows That Are FAULTLESS...
Because They’re NOT JAUNDICED... !!!
They’re STRONG NOT Distorted...
So... Do NOT Export Things...
Like Drugs For Those SNORTING... !!!
Exponents Be FLAUNTING...
SKILLS That Are DAUNTING...
To Those Who Be Courting...
Ideas of... SLACK Talking...
Or.... Lyrical WARRING... !!!!!!!!
Because They Are DEEPER...
Than.... Manic Street Preachers... !!!
What We Do Is Teach Ya...
Like... KRS Teachers... !!!!!!!!
Through More Than Your Speakers...
Exponents Like These Do Not Fear Disease...
Because Our Beliefs Supersede What Is Deemed...
To Be PURE HONESTY By The Powers That Be...
We REJECT... FALLACIES...
But Acknowledge That Grief...
Is Something That’s Seen …
FAR TOO REGULARLY...
By People … BENEATH …
All These HIGH Flying THIEVES... !!!
So RECOGNISE THIS... !!!
Exponents of Lyrics...
Who Write Things Like This... !!!
Are Clearly What’s Known...
As... ABOVE The AVERAGE... !!!
ARROGANCE Is DISMISSED....
But We REALLY FLIP SCRIPTS... !!!
Because......
Whether WRITTEN or SPOKEN...
When Poets Start Flowing...
And Their Rhymes Start GLOWING...
As If They’re... ALL KNOWNG... !!!
Then You KNOW You’ve Read Words...
From... One Of Those KNOW As...
..... " The REAL EXPONENTS ".....

*Incapable of opening her heart
Hiding behind books
Underneath....
Self-Sabotaging
Exquisitely lies
So believable
Even she bought
Her own ********
Lock, stock, and barrel
or it is...
Hook, line, and sinker
Voiceless
Fear-filled
Worth-less
The one who
Closes off
Heart and Soul
Never learns
Hopeless
Purposeless
No real impact
Silent screams
Or maybe not so silent
Drowning in a pool
Of cries for help
Unable or
Unwilling
To grab a life line
She breaks
Her own heart
Numbing her soul
Unknowing of WHY
She refuses to
Stop Self-Sabotaging
or
Keeps her heart and soul
Closed to others
Never letting them close
Feeling so alone*

A distance has opened
Between Heart and Soul
Passion and Desire
Now...
Disconnected from
Wants and Needs
Wondering how to
Weave back together
What has been
Torn asunder

Love...
so strange
beautiful
sometimes ugly
fills my heart
A lover who...
draws a line on intimacy
who accepts, but not fully
who makes me laugh
but slings an arrow
a tear drop falls
Love so fulfilling
but leaves me wanting
Bittersweet...
the heart yearns
for romance
and sighs in comfort
Always touched
in friendship
denied a lover's touch
of sensual promise and passion
Love...
So strange
beautiful
sometimes ugly
Fills my life

*No!
There comes a time
When dreams die -
There comes a time
When true love is unrealized -
New Dreams may whisper
Echoing...
And little loves
May kiss one's life
Still...
Whispers
and Kisses
Don't always fill
The emptiness of
Lost Dreams
And
Love not realized*

Contemplating life as time slips away
Feeling tangled by decisions she made
Mysteries unravel and thoughts run astray
She needs to move forward before hope fades
Life has slipped away, much to her dismay
Watching dreams die, emptying her cache
Lingering doubts leave her feeling jaded
Contemplating life as time slips away
Shadowed by loneliness, she feels like prey
She closes her eyes and hides to evade
Her pain and sorrow. She will have her say
Feeling tangled by decisions she made
Cobwebs are clearing, hope brightens her day
Dark skies are changing, becoming pearl grey
She’s now able to step out from the shade
Mysteries unravel and thoughts run astray
Her mind is now clear; she’ll find a new way
As long as she is able to persuade
Her doubts to fade, while learning to pray
She needs to move forward before hope fades
Contemplating life

Lonely and filled with sorrow
Self-hatred burns bright, loss of self is profound
Defeated, she feels there is no tomorrow
Abandoned, she is left to beg, cheat and borrow
Hope is nowhere to be found
Lonely and filled with sorrow
She is torn asunder and on the morrow
She will stand firm and hold her ground
Defeated, she feels there is no tomorrow
As her heart is pierced by an arrow
The ground crumbles; she feels drowned
Lonely and filled with sorrow
She is bereft and feels quite hollow
Life makes no sense, leaving her confounded
Defeated, she feels there is no tomorrow
Hopeless, feeling despair she wallows
Afraid she’ll never rise up and be found
Lonely and filled with sorrow
Defeated, she feels there is no tomorrow

K is the letter for forceful action
it's not a letter
that likes distraction..
In the light
it shines in white
in the dark
it's no
"walk in the park"
Nonconformist
Defiant
it's
Misunderstood...
R stands for ****
romance
ravishing..
robust...
it rhymes with lust...
S stands for slinky
sultry
****
soft
yet, sassy
n' everything silky...
The KRS letters
all together
make her slinky n' soft
n' she's everything...
bold
be careful with her..
she's a challenge to hold.

*Humor
She is often told
she has no sense of humor
But really....
It wasn't that she
did not enjoy the absurd
Or laugh
The problem is
she's just not funny
So strange...
you would think
humor and funny
are one and the same
Obviously not...
She sees the humor in that
Do you think funny people -
those who gift others with laughter
have a sense of humor?
Often
their fun-ni-ness
comes out of pain
Do you think they see the absurd?*

rapping with rappers on the radio
filling the gaps with extra lyric
mapping the sappy way they pretend
and offering 16 beats a breath like a boss
rick ross looks lost when handed floss
and jay z is crazy lazy in May, maybe cause Beyoncé’s
bounce house lacks compressed air
and the weave in her hair ads to the growing despair
like Dr. Dre cares about flared out khakis while Rakeem’s
grill gleams like flava flavs time piece –
b-boy stylin while in the dance hall
and balla’s with creased collars
throw dolla’s at bithces locked in the twerk
jerkin off in the corner lil kim seems thin
since aids came to play
and fat joe and heavy d sit with harps
lookin down at the crowd jumpin around
they floatin on **** clouds proudly
snoop’s pound frowns at clowns
tryin to be down
but really just hangin around
like the Mississippi mounds
poundin ***** like Tupac on acid
and that lil goblin from hotlanta
actin like he steady mobbing
they robbin the hood for goods and services
while talking **** to easily impressed suburb kids
acting like they got a message
but only KRS got anything to say
and that was just the one time
chuck d and that insane griff
talkin mad crap about gay rappers
and casting couch happenings
has me reacting like maybe I need to a new faction
cause I ain’t into none of eminem’s new action
and poor ole busta
nuts bein busted
in those funky *** dreads –

Yo step into my world like KRS one my gun
Blows away the sun dunned your done no fun
In the dark lurk near the scariest parks
Found my heart at the bottom of an abyss
My fist cruise through the foggy mist dismiss
Wack lyricist and these lyrics will shift
Ya back disc slowly sip the cola jack crisp no lisp
Only to ya chick who's loving it shovin' it
Like the gangsta I am eat green eggs and ham
Dont give a **** suckas cookin' like a grand slam
Keep the street bases loaded imploded quoted
From the drug bible feed bullets to my rivals
Cuz its the survival of the fittest the wittiest
Colder than the coldest im celcius minus
Three million degrees make tracks tongue bleed
Once i cut on the beat nasty movin' Pistol Pete
Bury a **** with one powerful hit ahhh ****
Yosef doing damage from mics i manage
My guns beaminsh freak a bad chica who's Spanish
Let my runs of my hands handle this
See the styles to crisp chickens run from this
Heat to a roast no need to boast none come close
To skills choppin' to H a v o c next to P
Lead by the Triples P's ***** pedigrees and prodigy no apology
For the blood sprees catching wars glee
Creed of demons sealed with nature *****
Got em dreamin' down memory lane
Simplicity black Mark Twain stain brains
I could flatten a rocky terrains strains
A mustard seed moving mountains
Sitting at the fountain of youth sounding
Off with the twenty one gun salute **** your
troops
We ***** as mobsters in black pinned strip zoot suits

I Guess Most Are IMPRESSED...
By Poets Who Are Blessed...
With... Mental Capabilities...
To Memorise Their Poetry... !!!!
Do These Poets IMPRESS You... ???
If Not... That's Cool...
But If YES Is Your Answer...
I'm IMPRESSED TOO... !!!!
Cos' THIS It Seems...
Is The HOT Thing...
To Join Slam Poets School...
I Recite From Paper...
Cos' I Write From PAPER... !!!
It's Good To Read...
But MOST Now DON'T... !!!!!
Try Testing A Child And You'll BELIEVE...
Employers PLEAD For Kids Who READ...
But MOST Now Think... TECHNOLOGY...
Will COVER Their Lack of … LITERACY... !?!
I've Got A LAZY Mind...
When It Comes To Learning Rhymes...
But Poets Who I See...
With Retentive Memories...
Sometimes I Do Believe...
Can End Up STUNG Like Bees... !!!
When Words That They Had Memorised...
ESCAPE Their........... Memory...... !!!!!
Now Sometimes EVEN Reading...
Can Leave Some Poets REELING... !!!
But This To Me's APPEALING...
cos' THIS To Me SHOWS FEELING...
That Words They're Now Reciting...
To THEM Have DEEPER MEANING... !!!
Slam Poets Are Now SCREAMING...
"Our Stuff Can Have DEEP MEANING !"....
WELL YES THATS TRUE...
SOME Slammers DO...
But MOST Are Writing STUFF That PROVES...
They REALLY KNOW NOT What They Do... !?!
That's Got You People...
Saying... " Oooooohhhhhh "... !!!!
CALM Down Now Folks...
You Know I'm … “ COOL “...
Simply From My Vocal DROOL...
I'm Trying To Say That Reading's GREAT...
So When You Judge Judge Their WORDPLAY...
NOT Actions That Slam Poets... " MAKE "... !!!
… ” PERFORMING "...
Is The BIG MISTAKE...
If What You're Saying...
HOLDS NO Weight... !!!
I'm NOT Here To ENTERTAIN...
Like KRS-One I.... " EDU-TAIN "... !!!
By Using Words...
To … FEED Your BRAIN... !!!
My Style AIN'T Built …
To Make You SMILE... !!!
Or For A Movie Like... " 8 Mile "... !!!!
I Just Compile Poems To RILE...
Slam Poets Living... In DENIAL...
cos' When Our Work Is Put ON TRIAL...
They'll Get DONE Like ********** !!!!
While Scrolls I Write In THIS HERE Style...
WILL BE Sought After Like.... " X Files "....
STOP THE PRESS... !!!
It's Time RIGHT Now...
For A PUBLIC ADDRESS... !!!
"Big Virge has slammed,
and brought distress !
He's a big black devil,
in poetic dress !"
I've Been God Blessed...
To Write... REALNESS...
