the encyclopedia
of my thoughts...
a bird...
felt the urge
instead of singing
put out ...the word
leaving
the comfort and safety
of the nest
not to impress
...just to test
its newfound surge
of individuality...
felt a need to express...
an
untapped artistry
felt
a heart+beat
from a different space +in time
come to mind
thus inclined...
took a leap of faith
tweeted
wtf...
then
stepped off
the ledge
let loose
such a string of funky beats
it hit me hard
right
to my head
so
i had no choice
but
to retaliate
with a motion...
dance
of emotion...
struck by
lightning...
go down fighting
what's the
chance
a mean
lean...
sublime
love making
sometime
fighting machine
like me
went extreme
supple
and taut...
bank off astral planes
like snowflakes
dodging between
droplets of freezing rain
falling...
little +bird
calling out +to me
damn the rain...
just spread your wings
and leap...
you fool
just
let it be
lead on
be strong...
do not just follow
what the flock
is doing...
do...
be
forget
about the book
read
between the lines
create a way
to represent
a point of
view
not yet taught...
in school
i've got to break the rules
not just talking back
jump back
black talking, forward...
across the galaxy
not being covered
by Expedia
bumped
clean across the stars
(how far)
clear...
into another universe
undiscovered
by
the media...
the curent
word mafia
and the gangsta crews
get hip
and hop...
2
a fresh
bop...
beat
the noise back
between...
your past thoughts
of creation
and rise...
raise
YOURSELF...
back
into the nation
you will
always be
in the heart
of your
soul
...before
somebody
else
imposed
a different version
alein
to the spark
of your heartbeat+rhythm
never duplicated,
by the machine
invented
by the deceiver
to steal you dreams...
bag them up
in cellophane
and wrapped around
your brain...
to bind the roots
of the truth...
of your unrestrained majesty
AS "Parliment Funkadelic"
jumped on a Soul Train...
blasted off...
this indigenous planet
on the mutha ship...
with indignant cries...
"do fries go with them shakes"
once and forever echo
a mantra...
which should riccochet
off your serious ego
like a wet dog
shakes off rain,
something about...
what part of a
...(white?)man...
and the verbs
rippened from the vine
time to shake them
from the tree
say what!
"...freedom from the need to be free"
if you can't dance
underwater...
hold your breath
long as you can
or want...
just
don't
suffocate...
waiting for someone else to
set
you free
