Thoughts on Life (Part 1) - A Verse by Another Poet

in #poetry6 years ago


This Track Is Dedicated To The Prominent Figures Of The Past Who No Longer Could Be With Us But Memories Still Last.

Those That Fought For Human Rights Against All Odds to the Leaders Who Built The Path So Many Souls Still Find Themselves Treadin Upon..

Bruce Burns Chavez The Truth Rosa Parks Malcom X And Fredric Douglas...

And More Recently Even Moumar Gadaffi Said He Got This…


Lets make it simple nothing like a hiphop legend to get the crowd sweatin.

Put some fuel on the fire make sure its unleaded.

Quick check the qualifications of an agent unvetted.

Respected by some sittin on a mountain of secrets.

Even snowden and assange couldn’t have it carte blanche.

But if life gives ya lemons guess its champagne and lemonade for brunch.

Gotta make the best of a situation that’s perilous in a system that’s derelict designed to leave you penniless without a home or pot ta piss-in.

Tramp vagrant or vagabond the proud may be down and out but not damned doomed or lost.



But whats the tradeoff im of the mindest vast fortunes of material wealth come at a cost.

And in time even those said to be too big to fail are double crossed face down in the road dethroned in a bitter frost.

And at a loss rob told us to take a path less traveled to make a difference.

And at last even in dark skies and gloomy weather a bit of courage and bravery is always a little bit better than a pinch of fear and hate but shame on me to tell you how to bake.

Guess it ultimately depends on our fate unless you believe that day to day its in our own power to make.

I’ve made many mistakes and at times I've felt like giving up but its those times you find the stuff that show you what your made of.

And Madoff my have made-off with a lot of cash but think about all those mini-made-offs that were left holding the bag...

Don’t think you're immune from all the dirt that ya done did and don’t think for a second it'll never come back.

And if ya still don’t get it then replay the track...

This is a short verse I wrote and performed as part of a song in a small solo project. I'd very much like to know your thoughts and feelings about this verse so if you liked it or didn't like it, I'd love to hear your opinion either way!
