Speak Your Mind -------------------------------------------
Speak For Yourself
My poetry is not political.
It's not the what's broadcasted
and what's buzzed about-
The polls
Votes
Opinions
Debates
Show offs
One ups
Tax cuts.
My poetry is not sensational.
It's not the who's who
or the gossiped about at-
The check out rack
E-true Hollywood
Perez Hilton
Rants
Raves
Rumors
Red carpet
My poetry is sacrificial.
It's my reputation;
my life spliced and split
Into words
Commas
Pronunciations
Dissertations
Vibrations
Authentications
Liberations.
I hear it's not too common now-a-day
to have your own voice.
my poetry listens close
to the tongues of those
she thinks worthy to
teach her a trick or
three then flips it
feels it breathes it
and does her own
thing
my poetry bleeds from
the ears of whats been
heard on the t.v.
radio talk show host
thinking what he knows
is most certainly
everything
turns it off
applies it
accepts or
denies it
realizes
you
gotsta
learn
to cook
before
you fry
walks where you walk
sees what you see
hurts the same hurts
loves the same way
