MORALITY POEM

OV SUPREME ESSENCE & A

VERY DIFFICULT CONCEPT TO PUT

ON ANYBODY BUT PLEASE TRY TO RECEIVE

THE PURE INTENT OV THE MESSAGE THIS POEM

ATTEMPTS TO OFFER UNTO YOUR LIFE SPIRIT AND LOVE.....

 

 

THERE'S ALWAYS TIME

FOR LOVE

NO MATTER FRI'ING PAN' IN HAND

TEN KIDS & A HUNGRY FAMISHED HUSBAND TO FEED

BUT

YOU FORGOT TO CALL YOUR MOTHER BACK ON THE

TELEPHONE

TURN THE FLAME TEMPORARILY OFF & CALL TOUR MOTHER

THE FOOD WILL WOT SPOIL YOUR HUSBAND WILL NOT DIE

YOUR KIDS WILL NOT PERISH FROM THIS EARTH DURE'ING THE

FIVE MINUTES TOU SHARE WITH THE WOMAN WHO BIRTHED YOU THERE'S

ALWAYS TIME

FOR LOVE

TO ANSWER THE LETTER SENT TO IOU

NO MATTER IF YOU'RE UNDERNEATH THE CAR TRY'ING TO

PULL THE TRANSMISSION CAUSE YOU HAVE SO LITTLE MONEY THAT YOU

DO NOT SEE ANY WAY POSSIBLE OUT OF THE TUNNEL & ITS FREE-ZE'ING COLD

& YOUR FINGERS FEEI NUMB & THE WRENCH JUST SLIPPED AND YOUR BLOOD IS DRIP'I

ON YOUR HALF FROZEN FACE

PAUSE, STOP GET OUT FROM

UNDER THE CAR

WRITE THE LETTER TO YOUR EX-LOVE EXPLAIN'ING WHY YOU HAVE NOT

WRITTEN HER BACK AFTER MANY LETTERS CAUSE YOU'RE GOOD

DEEP FRIENDS NOW AND THE ONLY WAY SOMEONE CAN

FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT TOU ARE GOING

THRU

IS WITH

INFORMATION

 

YOUR SILENCE

EXPLAINS NOTHING IT COULD

BE IO,OOO THINGS GOING ON & SILENCE

MAKES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

CLEAR

HOW CAN WE EVER GROW TO UNDERSTAND

MORE ABOUT HOW WE CAN TREAT EACH OTHER IF

WE DO NOT SHARE OPENLY OUR FEELINGS

WHY DID WE MEET EACH OTHER IN THE FIRST PLACE?

SHARE SO MUCH LOVE LIFE RESPECT

TO THROW IT AWAY

WITH SILENCE

THE TRANSMISSION'S STILL GONNA BE THERE IT'S STILL

GONNA BE FREEZE'ING OUT THERE BUT YOU

WILL FEEL LIGHTER YOU WILL

HAVE CLEAN BRAND NEW

ENERGY BECAUSE

YOUR CONSCIENCE IS CLEAR

 

AND

THAT DUDE YOU BE'FRIENDED

BEAUTIFULL WOMAN FRIEND WHO HAS JUST BECOME

A MOTHER

SHE HAD HER NEW GIRL-BAPY IN HER ARMS WHILE

TALKING WITH ME WITH HER BABY CRY'ING SO SHE PUT HER

LITTLE ONE NEXT TO THE TELEPHONE & I POET'D HER

NAME " ELENI " MANY TONAL CHANGE'ING TIMES

& ELENI TEMPORARILY STOPPED CRY'ING!!! &

HER MOM DID NOT DROP HER BECAUSE HER MOM

LOVES HER MORE THAN LIFE ITSELF &

ENTIRE MUTHAFUCKIN HUMAN RACE ON THIS UNBELIEVABLY BEAUTIFULL EARTH

THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE BEGAN SHINE'ING WITH AWESOME LIGHT INSIDE

MY DANCE'ING SOUL SIMPLY FROM THAT PIECE OF

HUMAN CONTACT
