Gotta write, gotta type
Place these similes and rhymes just right
Tweak it a bit, fix it a bit, not too much, not too tight
Have to enjoy it, don't be tight
So many ideas from so many minds, no matter the color, black or white
Creating negative images for people to see, what a sight
May be hurtful, maybe too hurtful, but it's the manner in which you show it that matters
Talk about anything, your beauty or your disgust about how you're getting fatter
Lil kids writing about animals, teenagers trying find themselves, searching for that ladder
That takes you to the next floor, next level, next journey, it might be harder
Tired of seeing people complain about their leader, BUSH
Weren't they the ones who voted, or who didn't, either way, giving him that extra push
I'm not trying to start any problems, we have enough problems already
Like over-populated schools, dropouts, deseases, and lost babies' daddies
But fu*k those babies' daddies cuz our next generaton seems to have a plan
Maybe they will expand knowledge like we expand land
Maybe they will make intelligence as desirable as money
Maybe they will make it mandatory for every baby to have a daddy
Maybe they will
Interesting post. Where are you going with this?
ReplyDeleteIt's a different kind of start for you, not bad, just different. Nice to take some risks sometimes...

ReplyDeleteMr Craig!!! 2:55 AM. Whatcha ya been doing that early with Ms. Zumi man, HUH!!!!?????I hope it was Madison who kept you up that late (i hope). well, i check the blog like every other day,and i noticed that the last post was posted on FEBRUARY 8, 2006. so, i just felt like i had to post something cuz we're poets and poets write about EVERYTHING AND PRACTICALLY DAILY AND IF NOT DAILY THEN WEEKLY. so, i just wrote a lil something something so ya can read, and plus it worked! wayne ws trying to write something to post too.
ReplyDeleteYes,it was a different start for me. But why whenever i start writing poem you ask me wher i'm going with it, good question, but it makes me feel like you think the poem has no point. AND YOU'RE THE ONE WHO FIRST TOLD US THE POINTS ARE NOT THE POINT, THE POINT IS POETRY. BUT HEY, I DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M GOING WIT IT.
But at least i took a risk, right?
