I publicly and privately
Defy lies of society
Yet many cry "he's defying me"
When I'm actually describing thee
Not defining WE
I question what's underlying HE
InCUMbents, speaking redundant
They spew death while I preach abundance
Though sometimes angered and reluctant
I remain sane and transparent, to be triumphant
So I come from, a place to confront them
In person or electronic are my choices of tonic
Seeing life fly by at the speed of sonic
Physical and brain pain is chronic
Since I'm being honest
I only need love & respect not homage
And to and for my daughter I make a promise
I'm harnessing the dark in the heart in me
And as life continues darkening and growing disheartening
I'll find the power part in me to astonish the populace
Yet do so creatively and cathartically!
