Dish.




The greed for green, that's the poetry that poets, poetically refuse to abuse, at least publicly.

Refuel, reenergize, and rewind

My third eye no longer blind

I'm going to unload what's exactly been on my mind

Abstract,  top cat, white lines, all black

That's right, I'm back.

Violent adolescence
I can teach a few lessons
To those who grow up to throw up gang signs thinking its the "in thing" 
until you're in things.
 The guy who stabbed you is at your feet, or worse just a few feet away smiling
 If you only knew that years from today how life would be; Would your decisions still lead you here
or would you have walked a different way?
  Now the opposite side of a barrel after you refuse to ride up on the ones that rode up on you is only one a breath away
I know a few alive who couldn't hear so felt, [imprisonment]
argued with God for the hand they were dealt 
I just played better than most with the face of a poker champ
My camp, burned at nine, again at eleven
The short pieces of peace intercedes between twelve and fourteen  
My best friend constantly, questioning about drug deals 
because the apparel was more than appeal.
You know appearances are everything growing up I remember walking through red hook couldn't wait until I stepped into Fort Greene could only relax a block until my path was blocked at 14th  I push a grown man on train tracks after he tried to grab my backpack
I got stories survival can only moralize
immortalized gang fight in Jr high left
more stories on me than any I could summarize. 
The conclusion was, respect the game.
With almost perfect aim would have left me a heartless bloody mess
I could tell you about the homie 
he, who Sha, not be named 
who got us in deep luckily we had strong lungs and a rope to pull us back to shore, still to the lore of living on the violent side of the law shone brightly in him and he almost paid
dividends, body divided from spirit
Poured spirits when I heard he almost left the land of the living. 
Cried when I witnessed how he hugged his baby sister,
And went silent a week later with the shooting of his mother. 
The Chronicles of Lost Men in the Hood are chronic tales 
repeat offenders, defending territory.
An innocent girl committed suicide for an unsanctioned pregnancy had to choose her baby or a family because he was a real nigga for one night but happily married for life. 
She took her own. The father of her child was her father and he followed by his own hand after he had learned she left him on the earth alone.
You wanna know what real gangsta rap is about, take a trip to the ghettos of the cities full of tourist attractions, where wall street have two different faces, 
What does your money pay for?
Witness what really happens.
Even local news wear bullet proof vest if you look close enough, 
The chalk outlines are recycled,
The combination for tagged toes ran out long ago
There's now four, 967 John Does

The greed for green, that's the poetry that poets, poetically refuse to abuse, at least publicly.

Refuel, reenergize, and rewind

My third eye no longer blind

I'm going to unload what's exactly been on my mind

Abstract,  top cat, white lines, all black

That's right, I'm back.

Mirror Me



Mirror me!
O believe that you've been ripped from the rib that was part of me
your next breath is mine as I inhale, so,
your lungs fills with life....
I plan to never exhale.
My eyes are embers, that burn for you.
Your eyes are, ebon-asiatic bold enough, never to disconnect
the resolute of your stare silently reassures,
That we are tested to withstand eternity in your gaze.     
So get up.

Oh Mirror, mirror me!
With change, this win came from within
The wind sang a new tune of a hero
From a rising sun,
the son of Cesars and Pharaohs.
A man with such a pride
The last lion. King.
No matter what defects, faces him
He proclaims! "He is him" and him is me 
I can't let obstacles and instability deface, defile, nor ridicule me
Its ironic my ego by default has been built as big as me
(the sun)
Have a daughter her name, Sierra Leonis


Oh stained mirror, mirror me!  
Soaked in espionage
Each word a blood drenched bullet.
Random stanzas are my magazine clip and I empty it
Tagets aquired,
to take down the states of man,
Now I'm realizing which mirages are mere realities
living outside the margins of reality.
To be in a run for presidency of the free word
we coined the term Artistry,
but vote for ourselves,
cause we honestly don't give two fingers about democracry. 
My minds stays busy the term "idle hands"
holds no prevalence because a pen is always to hold...
as:
My mistress - when I tell it to bend it does my will for me.
 
 
Oh Cracked Mirror, Mirror me!
Remember I used to be 3/5 of a man in an unusual land
now superman
and that's superior to man, but why not woman?
which is no good.
That ideology ingraved in us
metaphysically though the hierarchies:
The robe wearers and chain bearers
Modern history named them slave traders;
But when I know I can no longer leap over skyscrapers with a single bound...
Louis Lane would be there to hold me down
that's why I may be king by blood
..but she's my golden crown
Queen.


Oh Transparent mirror, mirror me!
I may be reckless
in saying I'm the best,
but look at who is...
Currently well rehearsed in verse
Only competition is, who was
And Shakespeare, move over
Be cautious for my lyric
Let your spirit become the rhythm
To the hymn
I sing in praise to God.
Godly these words are
Like oil slick
The Black to that Gold
Shakespeare wrote great plays that was only play
Socrates now can't touch me
Aristotle and every apostle
My apologies John Donne, I'm the new Don Juan
 Hammarabi's code, decoded and
Rosetta stone would be chiselled has my grave stone
 last line reads:
 Here lies true diction, satricial fiction, may he rest with the rest of the abstract living
I wish this to be existent, as non-fiction


Oh Mirror, mirror me.
It's been so long since my
reflection shone so.

UP ( Uncensored Poetry)







When I write I try to be on my best behavior
I can literally talk about anything and give it flavor
However,
by public demand, sensory and limitation are what build annotation
And tell us write according to who's who savior.

Well I'm to go into labor
Give birth
To something that act as a disclaimer
tales about the government, love, and religion,
Sexual preference, disease, and drugs, I can scribe scrolls about addictions.
Speaking publicly, being hetero sounds just as homo so I guess that why they created metro as to say in the middle. Medii to you!
 We're all anal-sexual, once in a lifetime attracted to some type of asshole
Just taking the literal, and giving the abstract point of views
Obviously these are made up as life goes because everyone knows...
God, just started to disrespect gays, Jews, rap, sex before marriage along with everything else
The church decrees don't agree with.
Thank you Fathers. Priests. Gods.
 
...
By the way every religion is Catholic to me
Christians, Jehovah's, Islamics Hindustan, and the hundred others all have the same faith I do.
Hard work gets you places and in the grand scheme.
But still, do as the Catholic do.

Artist are dangerous
The public glorify you
Your views
Your crafts
And that spreads what you do
while you humiliate and debase everything,
but Love...
but Admiration...
And Color.

To much shots are fired
The aim is directed at me 
I'd close my eyes and fire back blindly
probably not hitting a thing.
 We artist, disregard the wright,
protest feeling.

Unethically a Suitcase Sonnet


I'm sedated by the serum in your lips
Infatuated by the smile...of your hips
intrigued by intellectual conversation 
that I dumb down
Your brain commits; as you convince me why,
why I should love to see you smile.
Wait..reverse that
Let me, let you know, I'm worth a lot more than just some time.
(1.reverse that)
(2. stop the hands on your watch)
(3.contemplate that last line)

I helped rebuild a home and its not even my family
The soundtrack, if my life was a movie -
an idea worth considering a Grammy

You dissed loyalty when you tried to accuse, 
then the nerve to affiliate with the embodiment...
of misused

Oh believe that you've been ripped from the rib that was part of me
your next breath is mine as I inhale, so,
your lungs fills with life....
I plan to never exhale.

Toms and freckles.

Caged monsters in our souls, we name confusion
Death has been delivered but hell is long overdue...as we indulge
I can't scream so I whisper!... in hopes you're near to here.
Strain to hear please
My words are heavy, though dangerously intoxicating and carefully placed to please
I constantly search for the only lasting curve;
Smile.


When a door closed
Juxtapose...
When one opened
You and me
Jonesing..

Maybe I've been drinking a little to much, or not at all
that's only because I'm been thinking, a little to much

I dream:

The purple and green hues blanketing the mountains peaks
A log cabin in Arkansas
during the winter on a cliff isolated
This is where our first time would leave us elevated
The fireplace not the only source of heat as our bodies reach temperatures only hell should be
At the height of it you wriggle to the top of the bed
to uncover your head from under the sheets
at the same moment you squeal followed by a moan then a silent laugh
And then a mute squeak

I wanna go where there's more dreads and less weaves
More roads to travel but less streets.
Shallow mud puddles along with sparkling creeks
Brick roads and buildings
Scenery where first kisses are remembered 
Where stars blanket cities.
I want to look in the skies and witness hues crimson
The sunrise turns your honey brown eyes golden

(or)

Just wake up and make those things a reality
cause really I see you and I happily, 
holding hands, casually.
Walking somewhere, anywhere 
like down a street in a busy community of Florence Italy
laughing jubilantly about becoming intertwined in this frenzy 
because the locals are ordinarily friendly and us, loving 
every bit of the culture, the art, true beauty 
and you aside a Monet - two beauties;
Moni
only few ever see such scenery
Only comparison is God giving us sight thankfully, 
to wake from this dream to see you gazing at me.

This! I'm in love with,
This is life journey into unexpectancy
a leap of faith after a prayer
the only uncharted destiny.

Our Labor




You don't have a clue  
Like the first time you touched a rubix cube 
The rubric raised 
You want to be perfect?
Score a hundred then cube it. 

Visualize:
Emmett-sized being beaten Emmett-like victims 
The hopeless become strong only to victimize 
thus creating other victims 
It's the cycle created 
a play, manifested 
a few manage walk off stage
a few fall slave to the play
None of the characters live to see what life could of made.

From the beginning standards tried to alter our native
But artists accepted no alternative
We never compromised
Screaming just as our ancestors
In our voice is where our ancestors ideas lies 
Freedom
We embrace color
literally and metaphorically in massive amounts of magnitudes
We misuse rulers for measures
Pay no attention to the lines 
We painted on the outside
Of buildings where they distribute federal pensions
these same structure's create and stimulate financial prisons  
Because they raised the cost of living
while the dollar died 

Retirement at 65 so its a rat race is full 
old people trying to work for a few extra dollars 
Steady working nine to fives 
clock-in early
beg for overtime 
clock-out and die
for the sake of trying to maximize 
our net-worth. 

That's when society puts us in catalog categorized as not nearly alive
It happens somewhere right after a mid-life crisis
Everyday I'm alive I want to live
Every breath I take a I'm thankful to her
Cause I don't believe gods a man
However I believe that man made god in his image
to constitute the pillage 
We constantly hear stories of how people was raped and stripped from their villages 
What we fail to realize is these are currect events
repeating historical instances

I hate wearing stripes unless its my socks 
Red and white
Christmas for Christians 
The flag for politicians
they say religion and state doesn't mix
but settle instances and coincidences like this exist 

The Metropolis 
Full of politics 
For any black man
convicted without Cochran to back him
The judicial system push cock up in him 
Automatically assumed he's uneducated 
Prolific astigmatisms about negative cognition 
…Now the legal system

A visionary literary vigilant…
This isn't anywhere near finished.

Intonational Incantations




That line of coke snorted 
that pipe sparked 
I'm so addicted to being an addict 
just to add more diction..hopefully this is well crafted
I hope these lyrics recreate a reflection 
… 
As I let you in

Lyrical assailant
Verbal pilot
These words should steal your attention
a literate pirate..
As I use this to steal some of your time 
and moisten to most private, privates 
,,,,of your sanities 

As I begin: 

When you lay your head on me
I try and listen for your heartbeat 
If you are still, as nervous as the first time
….or if it has completely stopped as if it beat the last time.

Grim reaper screaming motherfucker take my hand
My sister were her brothers keeper, but could never play her hand 
I gave up on religion, until I started contraband
Hail Mary's strained my eardrums when the yellow cab crashed
the roof removed and replaced by the sky

The bruises and black eyes 
Covered by a mask of make-up 
And a smile as a disguise
The lies to the loved ones
The struggle for a daughter and a son

Dead at a early age 
From him
The virus that beat her life away
The eyes of a woman swollen 
At the end she tried to leave
But with broken legs she can't even creep 
Yet alone walk with. 
and here I should end this

But after another sniff this ink because to find the words themselves and 
I began to abandon all hope of ever dropping my pen..
My ink began to ejaculate.
with semen as words 
I began to create: 

To court her you'd need to hit a line, 
and still manage to have the asshole in you, 
to arrive, 
on time.
Pay for her past bullshit that travels... a land before your time
Crack, helps you deal with shit like this
Be careful, she is addictive.
You will be wanting to get up and leave, and stay to see her smile
It is Highly afflicting
Can not fuck her physically, so you commit it mentally
metaphorically eating her pussy until she claws at your brain and screams, 
to inject her, with the only elixir she knows that could fix her.
She does not understand why 
Why I'm quiet when she has desired conversation. 
I just need confirmation…
that I can shit without constipation
..here is where the death of millions, but one is waiting.

Have you ever laid in a corner and looked up at the ceiling?
Wonder what would you do, if you were boxed in?
Caged? 
Enraged?
All you can do is put on a play
Act well behaved so you can escape and inflict rage
upon a baby..that innocence 
Tracing back my steps to remember the first time we met
You touched my heart and made it stop...
Everything paces itself whether we like it or not
Trapped in dimensions where the created kill the creator and his images
My mentor is beginning to become what they consider demented 
Unreleased but, no relief from these streets
My mind is tremendously relentless

So I hit this last line..and hopefully you can keep pace this last time:

When brown became the new black,
Light skin became the right skin.
Skinny became the new fat,
These became the new facts.
Even the president is a percentage that

Don't let hate split your ribcage 
Behave and get your life straight
Something familiar to what our elders use to say.


It's said man does not live on bread alone
His hopes and dreams fuel him on the long road alone
He rode to the destinations 
Where he can lay and retire in restitution 
Moving from the birth when limbs allowed 
Forced to bowed to his beliefs 
As what he regarded as relief is released in his then queen
Just to succeed to the seed 
In her indigestion
Now digest the rest of his thought feeling unrested
Mind constantly tested its moral limits 
Believing only the Gods of men have a conscious small as any
That's the only way he can phantom why his God allow him to live the way life is
In the shower I shed a tear
Thinking about what is at hand
Knowing one day soon, 
I won't be able to wipe his or hold him near
I pictured the next time I see him
Me, telling him daddy loves only God above you
Then confirming he understands 
I imagine him saying I'm his hero
Something I know would never escape his mouth
...that sorrow 
because to him, heroes walk around in masks and tight clothes
Damn.

Just an empty space behind these eyes
I've already witnessed my demise
Living in third person
Viewing, what now I only realize
I guess that's why they say everyone has 20/20  vision in hindsight

…So I take one last whiff my nose completely in it..
Knowing, that tonight..
this addiction..
is just the beginning...

Shoot the Messenger N Send a Clear Message



Hip hop poet
Provocative verbalism
Is my religion.
Anyway life dish it out 
I'm giving it
My words cut so deep
I can let my soul seep 

Literary activists
Have stories to tell
Most of us grew up bastards
Recognize struggle
From within the rumble
we still grew up well
Is the government creating the public hells?
or is it us relying on them to make us well?

The deeper my thoughts sink
The more you'll want me
To explain my frame of mind
The pictures are all sublime 
Your spine tingle with each rhyme
I guarantee after this you'll be mines

The head bang is insane when the flow keep flowing
The cypher of the poets stem from several empty bottles of Moet
The development of this eloquent conversation and the direction it's going
Subjected to cover mutilated morals then...
expand to the multicolor of defense, a nation goes from white to red in a matter of seconds 
when lyrical bombs become present from an influential presence

It's a fiasco when one say Barack is a terrorist
or when it became common to invite criminal advocacy in the home of the president
So I say Lupe for king 
Push Common for residence
Because its obvious some things are amidst when we free child killers 
Or what about lawlessness of the legal system commends
the execution of Afro-decent victims

I believe Michael Jackson doctor should of used Kasey Anthony jurors 
He would a gotten off and kept is business in order.

In order to beat me you have to be willing to die yourself
My thoughts are sick I'm in great health

Trying for sympathy in the streets,
is like reaching in the stomach of the belly of a beast
I can tell you a few stories being raised by the east
I've witnessed some things that'd make Fat Albert not want to eat
Bastards raised by the streets 
The coldest winters they carried the only source of heat
Cause the projects were a project by the Roth-childs that loved feasting on the weak

You can either live your life or live a lie
You can either challenge each question 
Contest every request or enjoy the ride
You can't do both and don't think twice 
cause either way there's dark and light
I can't even stop writing
Its like I found a new vice
My words crawl around my head as if it were lice 
I stay hungry for success like I only consume rice
I can't quit now matter how many times I fail,
I never fail to try.
