Two Poems for the Year of the Virgin

The year of the virgin The orphan The reverend The week of the weakened The sickly The beaten The day of the dated The broken Amended The hour of answers Fall quickly Like white sand The minute the sun falls Deep be- Neath mountains The second hand ticking The virgin Redacting The fact becomes fiction She lives in A vision The story forgotten Make dust of The rigid Let it go or hold it close What you know, do not boast There is glow within the ghost There are crows rounding the coast Beauty in the beastly Makes it easy to keep feasting But the death within the waking life Is kept at bay while puffing pipes Peace is pieced together With debris of stormy weather Teeth are sharpened on the tether Leashing souls to bricks of feather Hold the hardest matter In a fist too fast for rattlers Slow the wielding scatter The force is slowed climbing a ladder And the latter shattered braggers When they etched their pitter patter On the plates and still the platters Crunching molars now just clatter Imposing closing doors On the chosen virgin cores The lesson lessens, messing with The frozen snoring spores Fire breaks the seal And the ceiling falls for real Trapped beneath the wreath of ash The blackest breath is virgin's last Satisfied, the mastermind moves on to grasp another kind Emerge the virgin from the mire Her cough is thick and eyes are blind Reprogrammed is the pilgrim, once a poison ivy vixen She's fixed and now a victim of the shit end of the quicksand Sinking to her sickened space A place begging familiar face A savior, please, a saving grace As she is shed of all that's chaste A massive blast that cast the last Harpoon into the sea Caught the siren like a siren, Latched onto her cheek Spear the spirit, never fear a fire in the sea Virgin squid birthed from the earth When shackled, remains free. B squid 2014.

Poetry day.

Every burning bush sees phases of life, Flowers rise tall until savored by the frostbite When dust mites bend light, Mold spores overwrite, Doe teeth clamp tight Or tragic incite, Spreads fire, seed flight Vibrate all night, Tongue rattle, snake bite Often too explicit, red lips turn white That I can't expel, eventually I heave And leave the freeze to winter, Blanketing my printed feet, I wheeze, can't breathe, Not a poem left for me Not through clenching bleeding teeth, I can barely speak, Now how am I to speed? Streaks of red, blue, orange, white light Canvas from the left to right... Am I even here? Am I all alone? Existence of an alien, but without a home to phone.

Sister

Sometimes I synchronize to elegant rise I'd rather stand straight so I'm looking eye to eye Sinister endeavor but we're on the same side Tally up the ones, how quick they add to five Eden is the home of original sin Regress like the best to the place where we begin

what i want: a love letter.

every day i wake up and try to give thanks for the circumstances of my romance, rollin' no breaks 'cept the break in the beat, the skipping of my feet when i'm rolling thru the street my baby here with me...

and time and time again i hear the best things are for free and i wanna live the bestest life, dont spend a dime on me

you wanna see the weakness when it spreads into my knees? you wanna feed the butterflies, i got the recipe... you wanna be my doctor when my heart starts skipping beats? cuz im the dean and i will deem you fit for phd...

im not your average lady at the park for leisure reading and stimulation rarely happens staring at the tv... if you want to entertain the dullest moments of my days you aint gotta climb a mountain to hear what the guru says its not a puzzle for the piecing and for you it should be easy so now you're actually listening... can you predict what i'm about to say? cuz baby i want you to make me a Mixtape.

Goodbye / Hello

Is this the end? I don't think it is How can I know With such heavy lids? Might as well be From searching out more My eyes meet with blindness Behind on the score So heavy the chains The alpha once wore Modern day default To feeling this sore ... ... ... But wait you're the queen The high priestess of fate You beckon the wreckage That falls by your gate The walls that you hate Erect overnight Ready set getup Defy the red light Dance with the sunrise And goodbye to night Perception of pain A self induced fight Jump over the bricks And into the bright The glow of what's real Sensation so warm Keep blood in the veins From family's mourn

#reactivate: a poem.

Sweetest angel from the clouds Can't predict when you'll come down Use your wings to shade the town Fill the sky with healing sound Darkness lives in many places Holds the shape of trusted faces Mushed and masked to take the place of Sun that shines guiding our paces Feathers fall down by the kilo By the feet of she who freeloads Stow your softness in the pillows Sleep so sound beneath the willows Wake me when the war has passed Then I will be freed at last

addressing my OG OG.

How do you do it? Remain versatile song in and song out. Cover ground and sky from cloud to grout. Capture wisdom in a screenshot of clout Clacking your spurs on a cranial route Each step a volume to credit your scout With knowledge and prophecy You garden in drought. How do you do it? Do you saw off your skull cap and expose all the lobes? Providing entry, grey matter exposed? BYO Battery nickel potatoes To plug into lyrics from spiritual globes Who light up your writers sphere, circuits stay closed Defy common logic, thru you the light grows How do you keep up with yourself? When demons want more Constantly dodging the moldy spores That want to eat you and take you away The ones that reign by natures decay How do you stay fresh? Do you do it by tapping in constant regress? You always move forward, never regret. Never the scum of guilt shall stay In your proverbial soap holding tray Never you push a solution away Never you fear, instead you pray And prey On the fear and the silence of weak You see your own light in the ones who will seek To find the courage to shave theirs away Their need for hair and a scalp, so vein. Their need to rep a cap with no pain Their urge to compare to the others, the same Their hope to stay dry in the rain, for shame. Fuck a life with no spirit of pain. good riddance to closing the book on the game The plays not yet played are all ours to gain Just keep putting out til my bones need a cane Til my clothes are all stained From destroying these chains Bruised with the truth Haven't veered from my lane Collecting your secrets Like money and fame My pockets are lined With growth and with change You are in charge I am to blame The lions are starving together we tame.

ENTITLED STATE OF MIND. #track9 #squidhop #lyrics

yo i'm chillin in los feliz, couple miles off of hollywood on the walk of fame, yo i'll be here forever got the marilyn inside, and since i made it here, i could make it over there, cuz my wheels go anywhere one coast to another, miami to los angeles, traffic on the freeway, perfecting my rap skills write em with a g2 on my post it CD case, swerve around the road like i blew an easy .08 but i'm safe cuz i crank the volume, pushing my flow i'll shout it in a costume! me, i'm your b squid, born on playa BRC a writer and a reader cuz, baby that's my industry final cut, final draft, possibly a paycheck producing til i find my VOICE, just like ira glass said. laid back on my balcony, winter in a bikini i was not born here but i'll never leave...

(hook) LA, living in the city of angels, there's nothing you can't do now you're in LA... these streets will make you feel famous, the sun will inspire you...

copying cadence gets me nowhere in my song and i'll never be that chick walking along sunset boulevard with my mohawk spiked nope i'm DRIVING with my squid hop, beats all hiked live show for mobile neighbors, jammin every minute roll their eyes and their cameras, "dude you gotta see this white chick dropping rhymes faster than a waterfall... who's in that sunfire?! blonde bitch got it all!"

i roll thru the hills cuz we don't believe in flat land breaks aint the best but it's cool cuz I'm cute and all you need on the east side is a crest white smile to get your shit beater car 200,000 miles paparazzi's never far... banksy's in the alleys fame on the boulevard, live performers with the beats hike at night to see the stars, the glitter's in the streets a sign boasts our location cuz we're too high to speak

(hook)

without a car we could still get around but nobody would see us if we all went underground we all started at the bottom with a lot of room to grow cuz unlike nyc we use our closets for our clothes. sunshine is therapy, we never shovel snow smog gives our sunset a magic glow dreams aren't just made here, they're packaged in a box scored and star studded, shippin' culture round the clock bars close at 2, afterparty's always hot we can wear high heels cuz we never have to walk streets of red carpets and a 420 card i got medicine for everything, this life aint hard we get paid more for ideas, the bigger they are we're the creators and the makers of all the stars it's mecca, the headquarters the reason to go west there ain't no place like los angeles

(hook)

ground your feet in streets of this soiled city emerge like a rose, no one knows what you'll see love from our homies keeps us goin with no fear i think we all agree that we're lucky we landed here, here…

LOVE. #track8 #squidhop #lyrics

there's a rampant fire building in my lungs not hyperbole, it's just the one thing i can tell you will not change aside from your heart when you meet the mage but he's on vacation, left the station where i used find him, make him do my bidding charisma ain't real it's just a spell i can't cast on you, and i try like hell 1 million reasons i'll plea my case sexy and patient and filled with grace smart at heart but I'm just as stupid call me cute knock you down like cupid your iron walls stretch from ground to sky can't kick them down however hard i try a beast behind bars in a foreboding cave too high in the sky to see i'd be your slave bitches throw rocks from their hands to your feet stomp my foot so hard i break concrete split the ground just like an earthquake scream like this until you wake

(hook x1) put your hands in the air and feel the love just within reach, no higher above keep them high it's a test of strength my hands don't fall, my love's a tank.

you scared of a challenge or just scared of me? either way doesn't matter cuz babe i ain't free get your shit this train's about to leave jump on board, you gotta stick with me

(hook x1)

mold my words to shape anger and hurt pressuring offenders, defacing jerks every wrong they did never slips through the cracks but i'm tired of hating on haters of the past more important things i'd rather write of love i cultivate day and night beyond jesters one story i wanna tell when i phone home and gush how hard i fell for this sexy tall and handsome fellow, his heart of love and melodies mellow not stable yet but on the rise fears the future, nothing he can't hide can't capture your gaze when you're running away slow your roll, enjoy the delay we'll move like sloths in tropical trees and climb to the top from where we'll see suckers on the ground trying to make it alone two keys grant access to doors unknown

(hook)

careful when ya mingle in the ocean with a squid ink stains your lenses, knocked off the grid this invertebrate is animated, thru the sea i climb till the pressures light and the sun rays blind wash away today, murky floors behind salty skin will stay forever -- the flavor of another lover we can launch and fly together we're both birds of a magical feather yours are sage and tranquil silk mine are blackened with mystic filth yours are patient and agreeably soft mine weep with pus, chewed down by moths but when they meet all will be healed wounds of the past finally sealed aftercare served up by the liquid gallon dip down to grab it with our talons take turns bathing in broken brainwaves dirt cakes all over the pristine mainstays for now i'm clean and i bear the stress tho this is special, it's still a mess our combined song no longer screams potential when i look in your eyes, heartbeat's existential...

(hook) put your hands in the air and feel the love just within reach, no higher above keep them high it's a test of strength my hands don't fall, my love's a tank.

don't be afraid of the challenge and don't fear me bust you out of your prison and you'll be free no extinction when you overcome the feat and find the soul that makes yours complete.

SQUID HOP. #track7 #squidhop #lyrics

let me tell you a thing or two about squid hop roots are grounded in a special blend of rock and earth in the ground and there's worms all around i grab one from a mound and it's slimy so the sound that it screams when i hook it always gets a second look then you open the book and read my poetry

never thought i'd be published in a cd sleeve metaphor and allegory put me in a category of underground harmony, wrapped up grammatically every word oughtta be looked up in a dictionary played out via pictionary, tweet my hooks like a canary sprinkle squid dust like a fairy nice to meet you i am very proud of my vocabulary listen up so you can hear me haters hate that i woke up early caught my worm cuz I'm a birdie chirp chirp chirp and tweet tweet tweet ho ho ho and hee hee hee bugs of inspiration swarming snatch them up, techniques alarming planting seeds like i am farming words for my vocation arming me with words like bullets starving for the thrill of the ride shoot them off and they will find a home somewhere inside your mind lucky if they don't leave you blind…

(hookx1)

when a squid hits like the land like a fish -- squid hop she's doing a dance, it ain't a death flop tinker bell says clap your hands bitch, to the sound to the sound of squid hop!

WRITER'S BLOCK. #track6 #squidhop #lyrics

when writer's block hits, it's not because your lacking rhymes it happens when you fail to find the time to look inside to identify whatever's sitting heavy on your mind when you lose sight of the content, can't take your brain offline you can't see past the extraneous, words fail at their spontaneous spill cycle from the serious, extrapolating process…

writers block is actually boxes sealed by the loss of confidence and your increasing need for tolerance by other rappers in the continent -- who don't actually give a shit! you could stand, you could sit, sing or spit, flow or stick, type or peck, stomp or step, dry or drip, die or dip cause it don't matter for a moment hip hop don't give a shit: don't be rigid, don't be sloppy, just bow to the best of your ability. love it, and sell it -- the world will catch on someday, hear it, maybe cheer to it scream for another hit plead for a bass drum kick it's the best thing in the world when you listen to them sing to it

change their lives -- they're inspired by it get their crews fired up by it; match your style, they've acquired it; bought the flavor, rewired it. you won't even know, in their brains, where they'll go how you've helped build their flow, how quick you made them grow… then they put on a show, shout you out, or maybe they don't, but it don't matter, it wont ever give you more than just an ounce to add to your ego's weighty pounds cause you already know how dope you sound, so spread the wealth all around, record your creative and hand it out simply by saying what you've got to tell

feed off each other, we're cannibals; stick together like animals; bear the weather like christmas elves; chase our dreams like hungry gazelles -- our homies succeed and we wish them well, or curse them to hell, or answer their bells cuz some of us create and some of us help some of us break while some of us weld some of us blend while others repel some of us move while some of us dwell some of us heal while some of us swell... there's no way to know and there's no way to tell who's still gonna be there when we cast our spell over the minds and the psyches of the underground well the river flows like life and well?

none of it possible as time will tell, if you can't put a pen to paper and finally quell the thoughts in your brains that make your mind change when you pitch to the range of people you reach when you practice what you preach lead by example, and you'll teach them all to become what you want in everyone... living life is way more fun we all burn under the same sun from the same meltdown, we all run from stimulation we all come -- hither where we're headed or thither where you're seated when happiness is depleted our defenses are defeated with three driving forces to take us every which way, providing us with all of the correct words to say... sex, survival, hunger -- one in the same: vehicle for the road trip, turns tomorrow to today road blocks gone, i'm coming out to play 10 tentacles to write with, this squid is here to stay

THE ONE (W/THE GUN). #track5 #squidhop #lyrics

broken heart is beating, fantasies are fleeing can't believe i thought i'd been struck by fate stuck at the gate honk my horn, please let me in patience growing thin wanna kiss you, wanna touch you wanna finally begin to be the woman of forever in your mind that was never and now in stormy weather left my umbrella stowed somewhere in cali below a pile of clothes or perhaps it's off in rome really would not have known spent 3 months stuck in my phone it was lovely it was perfect emotionally not alone but you pulled the plug, yanked the rug cruel as fuck, kicked the cruck fell into the muck now i'm muddy and im bloody feeling the quicksand suck me down into the crust of plate tectonics and i must take note of the shifting their colliding nature busts me from one pole to the next i was happy now i'm vexed but surviving like the rest

(chorusx1) it was nice once but i don't care you're right here but you're not there

for me, i'm too free, for you to see, naturally you're the one, with the gun pointed straight at me

for months and months i didn't dream with your face in the scene you were mine, we were green no judgement, no running you never teased me, never hurt me never made me feel guilty with you i laughed and i cried ya never rolled your eyes it was distant, it was digital just as real as it was pivotal i was flying, i was vying for your presence, we were colliding in our humor, just a tumor grew to an epic size first in the feet, then to the thighs skipped the pelvis, straight to the eyes then you saw it and you stopped it it turned white so you popped it you were running from demise but i was blind and you surprised me when you told me it was bad under the impression that we had something important, something rad but that's you, you're an explorer even when it leads to horror now i see you every night my subconscious reeks of spite against me in my sleep... it's okay... it's alright

(chorusx2)

when i drive on the road people watching as i go faces crying/faces laughing faces angry, while i'm rapping and i notice all along drivers there, then they're gone i'm still singing my song emotions flicking off and on if i didn't see it didn't happen raw energy i cannot fathom they don't know this driver cares of their woes and silent prayers puts a mute on my selfish grind look at you and i will find myself uptight, need to unwind don't think i'm quite your kind you saw a door, closed it shut i laid it down you kicked it up it was on, you switched it off i got wet and you went soft it was great when it lasted, babe i can't take it back the only thing i would undo would pluck me off of this track at first i thought i got this job led to a friend, pulled me out of the fog i saw clear, you came into view joined my path and made me true i wanted more, but you were through. we meet again, this time i'm blue cuz i sit and watch you speak spilling words transparently

(chorusx2)

HEAVYWEIGHT. #track4 #squidhop #lyrics

my name is baby squid, lemme tell ya what I do i'm a lover and a fighter, a writer of the truth ink blots of wisdom fall on paper by my pen, secrets in every vowel that i hurl at the men with the gumption to stand up to me in a fight to the death bloody, pulpy, battered, beaten, past their bated breath, the crowd goes wild in the style to protest the contender in the corner I'm about to put to rest... flashing lights follow from the locker to the canvas burning brighter, flashing faster, beating bolding in this palace... slender robe of silken silver screams to the crowd, EDEN's got my mouthguard, takes my stool, it's getting loud! ROUND ONE - READY OR NOT step into the center, get ready to get rocked bustin' thru these rhymes, I'm a goddess, can't be modest.. sweet as sugar candy and my curves are the loudest bitchin' smile with the prowess and the beats, got the gloves on my fists and the boots on my feet with the insight of a monk and the force of a beast, drivin' you back past the ropes to the street. one look in my eyes and you see defeat know you're about to die, that's why i'm ASLEEP yawnin' at your pansy ass, get outta this ring outta your league, get a job, clean your place gonna turn ya down with a smile on my face.. turn my back to collect this victory... gear up, rear up, attack me cordially -- you're no match, little man, for a woman of this kind! got a heart of solid gold, too good for the grind, i could love you in a way you've never seen before leave you gob-smacked, knocked down to the floor ONE - baby i'm sorry but I warned ya TWO - showed ya the door, didn't wanna THREE - back out without seeing for yourself, FOUR - love me and your life's a living hell FIVE - KNOCKED OUT COLD, someone ring the bell..

(chorus) no man can stand up to me in a fight to the death many try and they fail, accusation on their breath but it wasn't meant for you (the scary monster in my heart) came together pretty quick, just as soon fall apart...

ROUND 2, the opponent, closer to my size -- got the horns of a bull and he's full of surprise. threw a right hook, blocked with roses... poisonous aroma, two broken noses... dance around the circle, blocking jabs left and right, if we make it out alive, i MIGHT stay the night... BOOM! bad hit below the belt... knew you weren't the one cuz you're made of melting cubes of satisfaction and all i felt was reduced to seduction and left a welt on my ego and my pride, now i take the stride -- deliver the final blow, it's a K TO THE O...

(chorusx1)

no man can stand up to me in a fight to the death i'm a heavyweight contender and i fight the best wasn't meant for you (the scary monster in my heart) don't come too close you won't get another start...

ROUND 3, please, look at this guy! showin' up from outta town to tower in the sky, shade from the scorching fluorescent burn -- think ya got what it takes? step up for your turn. spittin' blood, weak from rounds one and two, gotta give it all i got just to make it thru, damaged from expending my time and rhymes, nothing left to give but i know you'll find adrenaline and pheromones, the happy kind, give ya everything i got, every ounce of mine... duck! duck! undercover! dodge my fists when they swing, they won't hit another, nothing takes ya down, you're a pusher and shover, growing greens to feed your force, to make a better lover but i'm fighting to the death, I'm the head of state these big red gloves don't believe in FATE. say it loud, i'm a heavyweight shuffle closer to me baby, reevaluate: whatcha think you're doing with a girl like me in the ring? don't fall, stand tall, throwin' elbows til i sing... here i am, spittin' fire cuz you got me in a sling, just when we thought I was dead to the world, doubled over in contentment with the lover unfurled BOOM!!!!

rammin' head to chest and my brain into your heart, cranium to sternum, tearing you apart exploded like a bomb and left you for dead I LOVE YOU's as effective as BULLET TO THE HEAD

you tried, baby, tried, put up a real fight got the heart to go the distance and ya did alright but just like all the others, a slave to ego fought harder/faster/stronger and you put me in the know thought i met my match but alas i was right... too bad death's forever we could try another night...

no man can stand up to me in a fight cuz i'm the best throwing fists of adoration at the beating in your chest wanna give her to you (sleeping beauty in my heart) but i was wrong, too strong, hit the top of the charts -- not even YOU could knock me down, that comes as a shock... wish i could give ya more time on the clock B SQUID, taking home the belt of pearl, like i said, knock em dead, i'm the champ of the world....

THE WOOD NYMPH SPEAKS #track3 #squidhop #lyrics

reality rains down, atmosphere dropping tears, liquid glass spears, rinse the smog, leave a fog, in the wake of yesterday, steers the mind clog, from the jet stream of delay, To the cloud of lady lay, A wood nymph in the forest on a log wrapped in decay, Beckoning with her index, "com'ere baby, hey...gotta story for you to tell 'em, words ya need to say," I'm a puppet for her pictures propped up against her clay pots of wisdom and witchcraft, Sandbox items for my play, She'd tell you on her own but her voice is tiny like a bird's, You'd never hear her words, I'm the instrument of a winged fairy munchin' on her whey and curds...

Between bites she writes with the weight of a herd, Of sheep charging fences, for some sleep but it's expensive -- and they're meek but they're pensive -- and she'll shriek cause she's sensitive -- cause she's tiny and they're restless -- she's a cowgirl, she's relentless -- magic powers, knock ya senseless -- Audacity on what she stresses -- Strong like BULL when she digresses -- Praying mantis guards her fences -- Bite your head off, it's a blessing -- ya loved her and she's addressing You were The One for one day...for you she's got a message --

"It was you, baby you, it was you all along... The catalyst for the emergence of my sacred song, Now I'm singing and im wingin' skills, I could be wrong... But the music's in the message, so listen before its gone: Fill your shapes with art of others so you can focus outside the lines Every poem is a gift when you listen every time,"

Listen with your eardrums, hear the insights in my lungs... Breath's specific, time's terrific, solid as it's spun, By the wood spider, stole my lighter, sparked the light bulb in the sun, Ideas for the masses and now the rays deliver fun,

...you still listening? yeah you are, you're reliable though you're far. You're an angel and a star, but you're living, no alarm, You're swimming outside my farm growing fervor and charm... You want in, no way out, not without a fight Don't play with fire if you don't want it to ignite.

Another risk is a burn of any degree, that affects you baby, barely phases me. as a wordsmith i'm a slave to the maker of the beats an oracle for the reverie of the lady in the tree...

The wood nymph speaks when she sees ya, says her peace thru my lips rises up when she greets ya, to your eyeballs and she grips Your gaze and your attention Boost your ego like a stanchion Raise the roof, she's in a mansion Knock you down with pointed cadence None resist her, want that brisance She aint me I'm just thespokesman now I see you and I'm hopin' Her words become mine... Some day I'll have her mind... it's a matter of time....

WAKE UP. #track2 #squidhop #lyrics

volume one of the squid hop fables a three part series for the cupcake table dig around for days for some inspiration distracted in a storm of communication invites updates pokes and play dates flash like light in an epileptic earthquake lost in the block i rap about daily walls shot up around me scaling up to the sky like a beanstalk grows train like a heavyweight hurling blows gotta make my way to the top tippity top hold on tight don't drop, don't stop don't think about the structure, blind to foot holds if you're hanging on by a rope, let go as long as there's a way to succeed at failing falling is a fallback -- don't let go!!!

(chorus) now, wake up! there's a party in here energy shooting from your feet to your hair everything is right when you don't give a care increase your frequency, then we'll take it from there

i said wake up, your life is on the line survival of the fittest but you're losing to the grind when you're ready to say i'm done i'll be here breathing life into your lungs

(chorusx1) come on wake up, you're running out of time pressure is a killer and your stress is outta line wake up you're running out of time… wake up… wake up…

there's no disease like writing for the man organic tumor, never planned always we think we know what we want sell your soul to the devil, forever flaunt the message of the dollar bills causing the pain brought to you by way of the estranged ego grows enough to create legitimacy in the hollow fame not this squid, my water is clear occasional ink bursts make it dreary rorschach style mind inquiry hits you in the melancholy wakes you up when your heart's sleeping inspiring some good house keeping don't be afraid to be yourself cause, well...no one else will wanna be you either.

(chorus) now, wake up! there's a party in here energy shooting from your feet to your hair everything is right when you don't give a care increase your frequency, then we'll take it from there

::::yawn:::: but i'm so sleepy don't do it, don't give up on the game you love it and you want it and you know it's worth the pain come on wake up, you're running out of time pressure is a killer and your stress is outta line fucks up are a chance to learn in the end - raise your glass to mistakes you'll never make again

wake up, emergency wake up, pretty please? wake up, flags are waving wake up, get it moving

(chorusx1)

wake up, follow the squid wake up, connect the ego and the id wake up, there's color in the air wake up, wake up

this was the hardest secret that i've ever had to keep one member in my audience who i'm telling go to sleep but i haven't been that honest lately, cheating every way sugar, whiskey, reefer, rapping, cowgirls left at bay deadlines barreling at me like an acme freight train inspiration's on leave in a snowy mountain getaway miss hearing your voice as you talk me to sleep text messages aren't coming incessantly thumbs are gaining weight, out of shape, like a freak might as well hitch a ride upstate for a week eardrums are missing our expanding mash-up stagnant, no vibrations or libations of hip hop where'd you go, new york, my muse you've finally, successfully, lit the fuse but you're running fast as i burn, soon i'll burst i'm not the bomb baby, i'm the fireworks shoulda stuck with words in text-based verse shoulda known impulses would only get worse stress, self doubt, i'm naked in the city jumping back in time, changing my mind, what a pity

(chorus) come back to me, baby, come and feed my brain give me that mind sex, i'm going insane in a rampage of fury, alone, untamed you got me so good, i'm ashamed

i was moving day to day in such a way it was working so well, i didn't need a change you came knocking, and wanting, you moved massive walls just to prove you were strong, that you could make them fall but just as i called it, they're falling, you're stalling you're not ready for this, you're refusing the calling you came, you saw, you conquered, now i'm crazy gotta get away, take a break, go be lazy promised i wouldn't be the one to leave got your work cut out, cut it big, as you please ya chased and you caught me and ya tore me to shreds just to stitch me back together, mended by your threads

i don't believe in secrets and i know you don't tell lies only so much to be seen in two dimensional eyes wanna touch, wanna smell, wanna feel your skin when it's cold at night, i want you to tuck me in i need that hybrid gucci di gio need it on my neck and on my pillow you could make me gush with a blink of your eyes from across the country, you don't realize.

(chorus) come back to me, baby, come and feed this brain wanna weave your days with mine once again overzealous with my passion, irrational, aflame don't know how you got me it's absurd, i'm deranged in this moment i'm exploding, not much else to say your radioactivity is suffering rapid decay you're busy, stressin', got bills to pay a house that leaks heat, legal matters on the brain i hear that, i got you, i know the pain got issues of my own that i'm trying to train when you stop askin' questions you were asking before ya sound like an actor -- fact, fiction or folklore. with the directive of a shrink and the drive of a chemist neither fuel moves you west over highway sixty six. i'm patient, i'm waiting, keeping myself quiet while my muse moves his music to a digital Hyatt metaphors, my bad, you know i'm trying to tone down the allegory so you could hear my words flying they tell me i have issues packing syllables into lines "b squid, they don't fit!" but i'm new to these rhymes i've written a thousand love letters but never rapped til you came outta the woodworks and into my view when i started this track i was feeling pretty blue but by verse number three, that was no longer true stay on my page, til we both know every word millions left to write, and i'll see that they get heard by one member of my audience, not a second or third, forever is a timeline that's not to be disturbed.

(chorus) come back to me, baby, come and feed this brain wanna weave your days with mine once again overzealous with my passion, irrational, aflame don't know how you got me it's absurd, i'm deranged

i know you're still here, my dear, so come feed this brain we always meet in the middle, but it's me who is lame projecting my fears with tears, and then they wane got me, can't drop me, don't let go, not today

(chorus) come back to me baby, so i can feed your brain wanna wake up all your senses, wanna make you feel changed lay your bets, no regrets, while it's still fun and games you got me, can't drop me, don't let go, not today

first page pressure

cut my words out, from a cloth edges jagged, fabric soft patterns are intricate, criss-crossing lines tiles of broad beauty, bending my mind

trying to write poems, from my soul eye s-s-s-sizzling, diction's my goal provocative thoughts and lusty lyrics missteps and skipped let- ter typos appearing.

first page pressure, to do something great try better, it's harder, becomes something i hate i'm lost in my thoughts about being with him i'm sorry for the love that he'll steal from my friends i'm confident though, he'll be there til the end now the words have arrived, we can finally begin:

is it a song or a poem for my blog, that will define philosophies that always leap-frog the concept of trying and failing to be thus giving themselves the chance to be free

to be something audiences, will want to read and something crowds listen to, attentively something that begs you to reach to the sky that drives you to move without asking why

something to showcase ability to linguistically lick sound waves of the sea something so bold the spelling don't count

so capped and important you'll spin it around think your perspective incorporate truth develop legitimate life-loving roots

tall you will stand, thick are your leaves la la la legacy creeps at your feet

one foot below and five up from the street, i sieze your keys and receive your belief; you appease pleasantries, please me so sweet you tease the liaison between myself and me, i love you, right now, you make me whole -- the fourth of four dimensional roles time is the place to be happy, life is for living, and giving back glee.
