Death At My Door

Pacing down the darkness chattering with an acquaintance,
Crossing a meandering feet path down to the cold donga
Engrossed with chatters stepping the stones and
Suddenly he shouts and scream pointing behind me

Here passes a coffin in solemn creeping pace
And weeps none holding back;for his mere life was academic
Starred with severe solitudeness a panting curse unexcorcized 
A hearse at chamelion pace weeps the time

Theirs wrath rattles none
Speeding with fancy cars
Pouncing our taxes formal siphoning
Dressed in their flamboyant uniforms

All That Glitters Is Not Gold

Some folks like shiny stuff praising it with godly reverence
Holding vague worth superficial at best mocking their light
With obtuse exaltation capitulating to shallow dowry obverse
As such petty nothingness dessicates by time inviting plight.

Be Grateful

Every morning rise
           Be grateful
There's someone who wasn't
So fortunate to see, once again,
The blue skies
Surrounded by family and friends
          Be grateful
Some walk around lonely thinking
Suicide would make a good
End
Living out your life with your soulmate
          Be grateful
There are others who never find
True love and settle for
Moderate
Well off and never hungry
          Be grateful
There are others who struggle everyday
To make ends meet
There are a lot of people who go hungry in this country
          Be grateful for what you have and stop complaining
          When you do-that's when your eyes open and it
          Stops raining

In the early Spring peeps begin to sing after the radio thaws

a message of hope to help you cope comes into view

vested as a treasure that's inside of me and you

love has a funny way of showing to where you are really going

for I rose above the flame out holding my own in the rap game

spreading my dreams to take flight further upon the inner city

dropping beats with my magic wand can't we all get along was the song

I used to be a memory within the next century nothing phony just keeping it clean
