Scarlet
Red eyes no bullseye,
high off our mark,
distracted by addictions,
it’s apparent from our scars,
scars,
lit,
far,
in,
tense,
don’t know where the day went,
intense so I escape in a tent,
camp out just to lamp out without any ill intent.
Since when,
did our past define us,
our destiny we manifest,
sometimes we have to remind us,
that we angels were Heaven sent,
that scent,
mixes with the wind,
sea breeze and coconut knees,
I’m ready when you are just say when,
since when,
were names so appropriate,
Scarlet’s a darling far from a harlot,
actually she’s abstaining,
since when,
were you so absent from class that,
you forgot the facts that,
all women are divine even when abstinent,
honestly,
I’d rather be,
laying in this hammock with a Goddess that’s abstinent,
than rubbing,
when clubbing,
wasting time with a drunken **** that will soon be a has been,
not even a faction,
not even a fact,
I want the real artist,
I don’t want a bad act,
I want laughter,
I want rushes,
and with her we get all that,
it all comes in bunches,
her inner instinct is distinct,
and much more than just what a hunch is,
what’s for lunch kid?
Let’s have a pic-nic this instant and then get down to business,
actually let’s scrap the deal and forget all about business,
let’s get up let’s get up let’s get up and ride like the wind,
let’s let God be our witness,
we’re in this,
no limits,
no gimmicks,
no scrimmage,
no sewage,
no sadness,
no losers,
so tragic,
the truth is,
abusers,
abuse but,
their tactics are madness,
so when they step,
we make them back track with,
apologies “So sorry please,
I didn’t mean to try to take,
all of your Light Energy.”,
ok I accept their pleas,
then tell the fickle fleas “Peace,
I think it’s time for you all to flee.”,
And their gone,
along the whispers in the wind,
and we’re in the hammock again,
Scarlet and I off the mark and still high,
gone like the wind our world continues to spin,
distracted by our addictions,
which is apparent from the scars we wear on the body we’re currently in,
with red eyes,
no bullseye,
no bullSh!t,
just true facts,
think about the best thing you could ever do in your life,
and rest assured we’ve done are doing or will do that.
All true in other words,
all true facts,
from Venus to Mars with,
a darling named Scarlet,
she leaves a print on my soul,
no crayon or marker,
no mark,
no start,
no finish,
no gimmicks,
just this,
life we live that we live to the limit,
with words that are all true,
in other words all true facts.
Vague,
yet exact,
we rush forward,
then step back,
heartbeats and feelings,
all part of our lives’ soundtrack,
Sounds rap,
upon the windows of my soul,
in the form of the flicker in her eyes,
which is a response to the moon’s glow,
and it is then that I know,
that she is a magical creature,
that I could write about on pages for ages,
but then I feel her beauty is so pure,
that I don’t even wish to display it on literary stages,
so I just stop writing,
and give one last look at her by candlelight,
I give thanks for her in this moment,
then I finish my rhyme and go outside into the tropical moon night…
