Been off stubbing repeatedly, my toes, on the raggedy twisted sidewalks of a sinking city, not mine, where here, my own metaphor, is being hand delivered, to me, for me, by me too many cayenne creole paroles, none of them getting me any freer none, as of yet, making me a free parolee been off studying some of what I cannot yet do, parole in libertà, a language cosmopolitan of creation, via creative writing remolding all of the dix senses been drawn and french quartered, drilled down, found no unknown solace deep bedrock grown, so doing a redistricting of the map personal, exposing my gardens, my Doric columns, to any passerby with the audacity so sheer to look me in the face direct and say laissez le bon temps rouler! looking to liberate my words, looking for liberty in my words, in a different melting *** where here I am a semi-low semi-free person of color called Old Fashioned White, looking for a seasonal hurricane to move me along, push me to write in a new style, developing cayenne words smothered in jazz à la mode multi-flirting with multi-fluency, searching for Experimental mellifluous words stolenlen from, and built upon a thousand years of languages, river wide delivering its mountain deep cargo of silt, a city of words, upon it built, just like the great Mississippi, changing course every one                                                thousand years my mouth, a river opening wide, catching both salty and fresh, god's love delivering, doing the best I can, writing real fracking poetry for poetry's sake, not text messages of asstags kissing nobody's ads of sad dead #hashtags, following nobody noticeably, but thrusting your good stuff into my orifices, most pleasurably deep                  but never parrying,                           I am a poet social only in this: my devotion to my crew                                    stronger every day for and                            of that particular poetry,            I can write better than anyone,               so big,                                     sooooooooo easy, and that's, Steve, Bala, y'all, how and what I'm doing and by the way, Putain Zang Tumb Tumb you could look it up

Heart is the headmaster, Seems like there is an on coming disaster. Mind is an abuser, Can't see what's in the future. Soul is the professor There's a problem and an answer. Body is a tumb, Something that's just used. Clamity comes when you're sleeping in your bed, Thinking about all the love that you give. What you receive only passes in your dreams, Don't think too much, It's not always what it seems.
