"swallowin" poems
For centuries
my weary soul's
been swallowin' grey-faced spirits whole.
But the porcelain broke
between the lips
I feel dusky fingertips.
I have short moments,
one brief farewell
before I place my sins in hell.
Stranger please--
lend me your ear,
I've become what I most fear.
I know there's no
such thing as ghosts
but I have seen the demon host.

got the lights on in the middle of the night
i can taste sorrow in my teeth
where you tongue used to be
its not my job to say whats right
but your love is such a burden
it'll chase me to my sleep
singin songs to **** the time
and the clock is overbearing
its a ****** in my eyes
fillin glasses with my shine
packin up my bags with stones and seashells
and a notepad of my rhymes
i'm goin too far
i'm runnin to my car
and i'm swallowin the gasoline
I'm breathin deeply
i'm wishin on a star
and i'm pickin up a high school dream
I'm not about to call your name

I sat smoking a cigarette one day
on a bench inside the local park,
and some old, holier-than-thou type
came up to me, spouting some
nonsense about how "Those could ****
you, you know."
And I replied, concisely,
"Oh, I know."
"But," I continued,
"so do cars and guns
and terrible puns. So does
every poke, cut and scrape;
every bone you break;
every breath you take
and glass you drink;
every single thing you think;
every time you blink;
every scratch
and ray of sunlight you catch;
every pill you're swallowin'
and moment of sorrow you wallow in;
every religion you could be followin';
every word you speak
and meal you eat--
even walking on your own two feet.
So do hopes and votes,
popes and sore throats,
rhetoric and prose.
Everything kills, my friend,
though we only see it at the end--
and by then it's been too long
and we can no longer sing songs
of our discoveries and reveries,
and treasuries and pleasure-ies,
and best friends forever-ies.
The way I see it,
ain't no reason livin' if'n I'm givin'
two ***** 'bout all that;
I've already tossed in my hat."

SINCE we in the end times
the Lord showed me a sign
it labeled blasphemy these fools against me
So I gotta set up defense quickly
Gotta ****** my posse
Cuz they suspect to me cock-d Cuz im stocky
boxin' topics like Rocky lately
I been plottin' for the next ****
to hit and send some one in a casket
don't quote me nigguh
I lay breathless paragraph that cause bloodbath
in spiritual abodes this world ain't my home
so I'm all alone prone to anger roaming in the danger zone
Like Big L I'm trapped inside Satan's cell
where demons dwell
they see everywhere you are even if ya on ya cell
FCC set up all over the TV GE provides the electricity
That's all tapped so my folks gotta stay strapped
these fools coming after me I know
one day
and they'll come after my others the next day
so pay the **** attention to all.my henchmen
this the realist **** i ever wrote
Got them sweatin' swallowin' spit down there throats
no rest for the wicked I stick it
im.in to win it so **** a meal ticket
since money is paper and the root to evils
it's worthless while they growin' merciless
we need the breach the contract of these demons and reverse the curses
I was put on earth to shed permanent tears
for 400 years
Slavin' under the sun to a man who says Fear
in him and the glory to him
and all will be yours
**** out of here with ********
I'm murderin' nigguhs from.the pulpits
hypocrites suckin' the devils ****
government is an imperial for the British
this that raw **** ya can't ditch or diss dismiss
all the hatred and spectators
**** Pandoras Box bunch of ******* soon to rot
and when I'm lurking n the darkness
I'llhear them screamin' triple teamin'
Cuz my clips automatic enticin' fright
deep up in the a late Nightttt

I don't know you myself but I feel like I must help
I dont owe you a cent but I feel like I owe you my strength
Its against my faith but I'll give you a hand
If its power u wish then I'll give you my fire
In this cold world all need is my heart
Been searching the world looking for the one
Stayed out of sight, she's nowhere to be found
I give in, now give me your heart
I'm swallowin my pride give my a smile
I'm swallowin my pride now give me a sign
