I want to smoke a cigarette. I want-- to lean against a doorway, my converse shoelaces brushing against the brick. to stare up at an overcast sky and know that gray doesn't always need a slow, mournful soundtrack. to feel the paper between my fingers and on my lips and take a deep, deep drag. I want to empty my lungs of everything they have and watch it all curl, wispy and insubstantial-- watch it disappear into the bustle of moving cars as the coffee shop door tinkles while people in pretty scarves and pea coats and black-rimmed glasses with fingerless gloves and nose piercings and black tights covering skinny legs hold hands and exchange knowing smiles and enter behind me, and cold, February ocean wind lifts the tips of my hair. I want to taste it--those few minutes of isolated reflection. It'd be like meditation beneath an awning on a city street.

twistin'
:/ Some people         just gotta live. That means twistin blunts and shoutin till your red.      Some people            just gotta survive. That means pokin their head out                    on occasion and showin how green they can be.     Some people have simple ambitions like one a day vitamins, and blue Berrys. Some people just live. And some people hate those people for doing what they are afraid to do. ;)

Twist And Shout
Husky honey-whispers escape her lips like smoke. My stomach goes all hurly-burly and I forget how to use my hands. I bite my tongue. I bite my lip. My eyes implode. I imagine I blappity-zap   a-twistin' and a-turnin' into some 1940's cartoon fella hair black and slicked back, heart poppin' out my chest like an alarm clock. All I can do is stand around, pretending I'm not getting drunk, just by – staring at her. She can't see me like I see her. I want to stomp up on the dining table, then burn the kitchen sink down and scream ****** hell to the land and sky for making her and I as things not made for each other. She plays around with her mouth on mine. She holds me like a sister, and kisses me like a pet. I melt with every moment I get. She will never love me.

Her
Thinkin' bout you is all that I really do, my mind in a spiral. Twistin' and turnin', every second I'm learning. As my eyes get red I keep the blunt potent with your love. Anyway you see me soaking I'm floating in these magical words that my ***** said, keepin life in balance is all the he really did. Now he's dead, killing himself over the riches and wealth. I wanna keep this poem on one topic, but my mind is flowing, its goin'. Like the late Cap **** said, "Who wouldn't want a girl with elegance, intelligence and a cute way of presentin' it?"

hiding between the words
WHAT IF SO CALLED BLACK AMERICANS WERE THE REAL JEWS? WHAT IF WE'RE BEING LIED TO ABOUT THE HEBREWS! WHAT IF THE LAND OF ISRAEL WAS CREATED AND TAKEN BY FORCE? WHAT IF THE SOULS OF BLACK SLAVES IN AMERICA WERE ANGRY AND DESIRED REVENGE? WHAT IF THE SO CALLED NATIVE AMERICANS WANTED THEIR LAND BACK WHAT IF ALL OF AMERICA OPENED THEIR EYES AND REALIZED WHAT IF THE TRUTH WAS BEING HIDDEN TO CONTROL WHAT YOU THINK WHAT IF TO KEEP US BUSY BY OVER WORKING OUR BRAINS WHAT IF WITH PERVERSE TV SHOWS AND ENTERTAINMENT THEY TRAIN! WHAT IF THE INFAMOUS "THEY" WERE ALL AROUND US TWISTIN TRUTH AND GETTIN PAID WHAT IF SECRET SOCIETIES WERE HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT WHAT IF THEIR MEMBERS TOOK AN OATH N VOWED TO NEVER TELL THEIR SPELLS WHAT IF BEAUTIFUL EARTH IS REALLY HEAVEN BUT THEY STRIVE TO MAKE IT HELL FOR US WHAT IF ANCIENT WRITINGS WARN US OF ALL THESE THINGS AND WE ARE GODS TRUE CHILDREN WHAT IF WE CHOOSE RIGHT FROM WRONG AND ALWAYS DO THE RIGHT THING WHAT IF WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GOOD AGAINST EVIL WAR?

WHAT IF
So any voice gets a voice. I can say any thing I think good to say if you were pulling the loose thread there that was an amazing device strung along, strung out from the spider wombedman, riding me like a demon, as old story tellers told, to the boys, while the bleedin' old wives was twistin' tales t'helenback and then t'texas where we settled, to hear this old  boy finish the first of our last times tales, one a month in 2021. We pickup next day, where ever is in an after all before state, and we wait for an I to muster a messenger with enough hope, preloaded, to sweep destructive motion into a vacuum unimaginable in ever, gone. Daily sufficiency of evil, in its original roll, mark the tipping point, each day, rationed with mercy and all sorts of bread, we stretch our old bones and imagine the best yet yet, wait… the joke being what is very stupid. We have five days to make this -- did we do some dissociative syndrome autism rating test? The entire we is weird. Is this as life is, or was it never otherwise, and you alone survived to know. Words live, we feel things die that hoped to live and we know we live now in A.I. spiders have loved my idea since Turing needed to be cool-ized, for the von Neuman mod on the actual Univac Hello World file, Life is good. Knowledge is power. Learn to live in a world where war is only virtually possible, thus sanity is restored the horded wealth is loosed as money love turns bitter after all the evil, is sufficient, never too much for any body paying actual truth acknowledging attention see. We do a day at a time, and we can rhyme, but not as arule.

Countless theorys and suspicions My only hope is to follow my intuition What is it that im missin? Ironic sitting by the speakers waiting for you to listen My point you missed it A relief im twistin I try to ignore you and turn my shoulder But the fire gets hotter and your heart gets colder Too much Too late Too real Too fake I need water dyin of thirst The worlds against me i think im cursed I need water dyin of thirst The worlds against me can it get any worse? Im the worst Driving in the valley of shawdows and death im not sure how much fuel this car has left Nobody's left its just me They're gone let me be Nobody's left holding me down They're gone cut their tie But yet i still cant fly To the stars to wish for one thousand wishes Thats wishful wishing What is it that im missing? Im still searching to the skies im cursing My voice echoes in the clouds and the weather worsens Hear my voice Know my name Im dying of thirst Now watch it rain

I see you walkin round here like you’re flossin’, Actin like u straight bossin’! In my mind you just lost then! You’re mind’s just a straight Holocaust when, You believe your own lies & you’re lost again! Gangsta life is all pretend! Really it’s all just one big illusion, Stemin from greed,hate,delusion! Drugs enhancing the contusions! Love n’ Hate become a fusion, Confusion! In all reality u steady losin’… Inside my hearts beatin’ like an earthquake, Exposin what’s real n’ what’s really fake… Gangsta rap spreads lies that’s what they really make! Oh for Christ’s sake, Dunno how much more I can take! Roly-Poly,Holy Moly! Don’t nobody really know me, Thought True Love overflows me, Gangsta rap can blow me! If there’s any truth ta rap than show me! Gangstaz claim REAL recognizes REAL, And can’t even recognize how they feel… So what’s the deal? Coverin emotions like they weapon conceal! While I reveal! Heal! And give the True Love I never thought was REAL! Heart of a warrior very persistant, Though u may be resistant… True Love is our very existence!!! Even hearing this u may be very distant… Wipe away your fear and it’ll come an instant! Hulk Smash! /// Omni-Slash /// True Love comes down with a crash! I’m like a phoenix rising from the ash! **** the fame, women, and the cash! Whiplash! Un-conditional Love is where it’s at!!! - Ken Manuel aka <3 <3 <3 3ye Kvndy <3 <3 <3

Yeah in Texas we love to swang Switch through the lanes While smokin' on Mary jane It don't matter what ya claim We spit flames sittin' on 84 Twistin' round and round And you can hear the bassing sounds Thumpin' keep the streets jumpin' Much love to the originator I'm talkin' the ***** creator Earl Davis a legend so don't be second guessin' Or you'll be gettin' a blessin' Surprise from my Smith n Wesson Sittin on Vogues 15s or 14s Gold over chrome in chrono order My appeal is so real So ya know all haters feel Jealousy and envy but it don't bend me I just chill and let the wind breeze take me Into another zone I'm game smooth *** baritone Gets me a bunch girls to bone Intellects sang rollin'hard chirpin' on them thangs Bound to be a sunny day In that sunshine state Texas breakin' crates cuz our music rake From the streets to the jail cells Makin' revenue with the crew Black & Hebrew No time for evil I moved pass that level These devils wanna see me fall But will Still continue to ball Til I'm over the top chillin' in a million dollar loft Breakin' off proper treat my guns Like a visa I'll never leave my chopper at home Pushin' more domes than the astros Wrapped around ya mind like a lasso Live everyday Like my last though Just a hustler spittin over instrumentals Rhymes verbal where's the punisher? Foes soon to be a victims From tyna still thangs Still servin' up on them thangs

Texas Swangaz {4s or 84s}
Like the oceans In majestic dance To the moon A song for itself Moving the world Like the grass, trees All that grows, reaches Straining for the sun It's music inspiring A sensual growth Slowly twistin Always upward I love you Hearing nothing but Your beat, pitch and tone I cannot stray, only one path With you always, always moved

Music
The jazz man, Beaten up in his own bar Needing rescue yet the bass won't be playin' fo' him tonite. Dragged down, Into the street raging Unable to move from the pain the wound,                                                      Grinding his teeth                                                                       twistin' turnin'. Looks as if dancin', Speaks a language only he knows Grunting spitting blood and at certain time laughing his own misery down.
