I brush my teeth all the time,
But there are days when negligence prevails,
And I can feel it with my tounge,
Something growing,
In between and on my calcium.

It isn't pleasant but I know not a more interesting development,
For I can feel something, first soft, then rigid forming in one of my most intimate places.
And a coral reef grows, in my mouth of all spaces.

Not pink, blue, or any other hue.
I know not what to do,
My mom describes it as "hairy teeth" but I know better,
If I held a fish in my mouth now he would have the warmest of welcomes,
Into my mouth he would feel at home,
A tropical retreat, eggshell white,
My new fish would try and spend the night.

If all these things continued I'm afraid I would lose my job, and my life.
To preserve my fish in his temperate reef, my mouth would never again open, I wouldn't eat, drink, or swallow again,
All this for my little fishy friend.

I would name him Bubbles,
And he would tickle my jaw with his hubby breath.
He would sleep beneath my tounge and wake me with little fishy kisses every sunrise for the rest of our lives no matter how brief-
But this beautiful relationship would end when we grow more and more hungry and our thirst teases us in this reef,
I can only hold so much salt water in between my cheeks,
Surely not enough to last mare's two weeks.

My oral reef would cut me,
And Beal together would we,
Bubbles and me.

the day came rude
all still the same as the night but bright
crust awaitin to get knocked off
the stain of the dark
jumped in the shower brushed me  teef
and still had that lingering smell
you get in your *** when you just think of you
that bad feeling that you get when you
just dont want to get up and face anything
but you do
no dial or crest or eyewash can knock it off
so,
you go through the motions
promise never more
until you get home that night
and after two beers
or a hit a pill
a shot a  ***** a snoot
you forget all that
and go right back
to last night
**** on
tomorrow

what you wont
******
an apology or somethin's
chip on you's should'a all's
I see's
looks like your brown teef
no one's taut ye' to brush 'em?
and yo' mama ain't in the mood
to do lawndries
next thin's
yo' gon' be
all up 'n
me faces
prof sizing

takin' God's name
makin' his words
fit your visions

Some kind a flag ya' got there
that stood for
a bunch of racist traiters
dude

bold cross red blue and white
almost like
our countries

I think you's a bit
jell'us ins'cure
like at
least gradiate
third grade
next year
Yo I told yall once more, been braced for war, even the score,
Shots like in da battlefield, high rising feel,  move like an eel, with the steel,
****** face from the Copperfield, let's keep it real, I appeal,
To the masses, check the horror glasses, hits beyond Classics
Cassius, disastrous, yo I'm straight hazardous, flows serious,
Haters tryna serve us, never nervous, keep a maxed out surplus,
Plus I got girls on the bang bus, who could rush us, out touch us,
Yo, I'm flipping birds without touching skies, stay wise,
Vigilant true gangsta militant, stay beyond magnificent,
Got a chase for money Manhattan, see what's happening,
Stay cappin', third ward coast rappin', so quit ya yappin',
Flappin' about nia this is the souf, so watch where ya peck ya mouf,
Haters fronting, and stunting, ain't no future in it, steam out Bennets,
Matrix with the blades, creamed out escalade, soufside fade,
Razor blades, sitting on the side of my gums,under my teef,
Shine up the christ reef, sit like an indian as chef, stress relief,
I'll leave ya stiffer and deader, than the winter leaf, peasants,
Become deaths residence, my gun distance, stay with the quickness,
Answers with the Iversons, yo who's liver sons, step to the don
Yo it's big pun, capital punishment, break the establishment,
Suckas got me bent, never been pent, to a magazine green,
Leaves I fiend, to keep my thoughts clean, no evil supreme,
Catch the dream, shakes from the microphone Hakeem,
Aim at ya peen, see what I mean, scope with the laser beam,
It seems dreams, are shallow I broke the battle, snitches tattle
I make like a snake and rattle, wait for bite pitch the might,
Dolomite any girls without using fright, game latex tight,
Iight, yosef only telling ya truth,no lies see the biblical eyes,
Close with the evil disguise, broke the celibate ties sighs,
Giving by the godly oddly shape my ology, it's my psychology,
Cant stop wont stop, til I'm the cold yard top, giving drops,
Unexpected, ya unprotected once I was resurrected, disconnected,
Off the face of the earth, my birth I knew my infinite worth,
Stay rowdy puff the green, make it cloudy, like chicks bowdy
Howdy howdy, word to this white henny good and plenty,
Sticks to stones break bones, word to the Houdini clones,
Magic I own, phone home sucka you dead amongst the battle zone,

Whaaaaaat!!

Ya Know It's...
HARD To... " Come Correct "... !!!

WHEN Your... " Descent "... ?!?
Is What Causes OFFENCE...
To These IGNORANT Heads... !?!

BIGOTED... YES... !!!
As Well As.... ARROGANT... !!!

When It Comes To What's Said....
About Us... " IMMIGRANTS "... !!!

Aren't They Immigrants Then... ?
Or Maybe.... ALIENS.... ?!?

Cos' They DO NOT Come Correct.... !!!!!
When It Comes To Common Sense...

So YES It's HARD To Come Correct....
When RACIST Feds...
Or YES I Mean... Police... !!!!

Decide To Bring A Team...
To WRECK And Make Hearts Bleed... !!!

You See... THIS Is Poetry...
That People DON'T EXPECT...
Because It Comes CORRECT... !!!

When Broaching THESE Subjects... !!!

So Let's Move On To Other Wrongs... !!!
That... DON'T BELONG.... !!!!!

Because They PROVE...
That MANY CHOOSE...
To Act Like FOOLS... !?!

Who When You CHECK...
Come... INCORRECT... !!!

BELIEVE... OH YES...
There Are MANY OF THEM... !!!!!

Who NEED To Be In THIS Poem... !!!

Like Men I Mean... BOYS... !!!!!
And Girls WHO ANNOY...
Because of Their Ploys...
And... Lack of Poise...

You See... Coming Correct...
Is NOT About... ***.... !!!!!

Although I DO Suggest... !!!
That You Get A GOOD Bed.... !!!!!

That DOESN'T Crack WHEN...
Her CRACK Gets WET...
Or You're Giving Head... !!!

Cos' Some Girls Tend...
To FREAK When SPREAD...
For **** With LENGTH...
That When FELT... SENDS...

Their Bodies Into...
..... FRENZIES..... !!!!!!

So If Your Girl Is HEAVY... ?!?
... Come CORRECT... !!!!!
Just Like I Said...
When It Comes To YOUR BED... !!!

Make SURE It Has STRENGTH... !!!!!

UNLIKE These Feds'...
And Government Heads...
Who Are CLEARLY Weak... !!!

You See Words They Speak...
It's... CLEAR To Me... !!!

Do NOT Benefit Humanity... !!!

They Benefit... GREED....
And CORRUPTED Deeds... !!!!!!

And Those I Believe....
Are What THEY CALL...
..... " Policies "... !!!

You See I COME CORRECT...
... Within My Poetry... !!!!!!

Because I'm NOT AFRAID....
of.... " Dictionaries ".... !!!!!

Like Chris Rock Said It SADLY Seems....
That A LOT of Black Peeps’....
Just... DO NOT Read.... !?!?!

Apart From FALLACIES....
On... Internet Feeds... !!!!!

So It's Safe To Say...
That Books ARE The Place... !!!
To... Hide Your Money...
If You Wanna Keep It... “SAFE“...
From Blacks Who TEEF'... !!!!

Did You Find That FUNNY... ?!?
Cos' It’s Just A JOKE... !!!!!

But COME CORRECT.... !!!
DON'T Be That Bloke...
Who CAN'T Cover Your Debts...
Because You're BROKE... !!!

Because What You CHOSE...
Was To Check For DOPE... !!!
Instead of Quotes...
That You SHOULD KNOW... !!!

Quotes That SHOW...
How The Story Goes...

DISRESPECT For Black People...
From Those Who've CHOKED...
Our Ability To GROW... !!!!!!
Into MORE THAN Ropes...
That Hung Our Bones... !!!
Because They Were EVIL... !!!!!!

So On That Note....
It's Time To GO.... !!!

Cos' I've COME CORRECT...
With These Words That Flow...
That CLEARLY SHOW...
How Scenarios Roll...

That NEED To Be CHECKED... !!!!!

So It's Time To END...
This Simple Poem...

That Merely Suggests...
That When It Comes To Your Moves....
And How You USE Your Head...

Folks Try Your BEST...

To YES.....

..... " Come CORRECT ".... !!!!!
Just a great saying, so, I wrote a few words about it .....

— The End —
