Medusa      

        MUSES

SITTIN' ON THA SHELF...

I'M ACTUALLY PERFECTLY CONTENTED 2B,

ALL ALONE; HERE, WITH ME.

TRULY FORTUNATE, BY MYSELF...

RATHER, THAN ARGUE, WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

BECAUSE, I DO OFTEN FIND,

FOR MY OWN PIECE OF MIND;

I PREFER TA SIT HERE ALL ALONE,

THAN WELCOME TROUBLE INTO MY HOME.

YES, SOMETIMES IT TRULY SEEMS;

PEOPLE PREFER GETTIN' MEAN,

OVER SAVORIN' A BIT OF REAL PEACE.

THEY'D SOONER CAUSE SOME SORTA GRIEF. 

WHICH IS WHY YOU'LL USUALLY FIND, 

FOR MY OWN PERSONAL PEACE OF MIND;

I'LL REMAIN HERE ON MY OWN,

BEFORE LETTIN' PROBLEMS INTO MY HOME.

'CAUSE OTHERS SOMETIMES MISJUDGE;

LOOKIN' TO DRAG SOMEONE THROUGH THE SLUDGE,

WITHOUT BENEFIT OF THA DOUBT;

THEY'D, SOONER CALL YOU OUT.

PRESSUMIN', OTHERS MUST SOMEHOW BE...

ACTIN' TREACHEROUSLY;

SIMPLY DUE TO OUR OWN SEX.

OR, MAYBE CASTIN' SOME SORT OF HEX.

BECAUSE, OUR BELIEFS ARE NOT THE SAME. 

THUS,WE MUST BE THE ONES TO BLAME.

FOR HONESTLY SAYIN'; WHAT'S ON OUR MINDS;

RATHER, THAN FALLIN' STRAIGHT INTO LINE...

OR, PRETENDIN' EVERYTHING'S SOMEHOW FINE,

WITHOUT LITERALLY READIN' THA WARNIN' SIGNS.

THUS, BETRAYIN' OUR OWN SELF,

MERELY TO PLEASE SOMEONE ELSE.

​

YES, WORSHIPPERS SHOULD SERIOUSLY BELIEVE,

THAT IT'S STILL MUCH BETTER 2b

SIMPLY SPIRITUAL DEEP DOWN INSIDE,

THAN, CARRYIN' RELIGION ON THA SIDE.

​

SO, WITH A BIBLE, BY SOME BEDS;

THAT ALL TOO OFTEN GOES UNREAD;

THE LESSONS LEARNED FROM INSIDE, 

GET REPEATEDLY TOSSED ASIDE.

YES, THE KORAN CAN BE THA SAME.

AND, THERE'S NO ONE ELSE TO BLAME;

IF, YOU TAKE NUTHIN' HOLY TO HEART.

BUT, WOULD SOONER, RATHER START;

PURELY POISONIN' PEOPLE'S HEADS,
UNTIL THEY'RE ACTUALLY GOOD & DEAD.

​

SO, DON'T BOTHER CURSIN' ME,

WHEN YOU REFUSE TO RIGHTFULLY SEE;

THE HELL YOU MAKIN' FOR YERSELF

RATHER, THAN TAKIN' IN ALL THE WEALTH,

OF A BLISSFUL & HEAVENLY MIND,

WHILE YER PURPOSELY BEIN' KIND.

​

YEAH, SUCH INSIGHTS SHOULD FAITHFULLY BE; 

HABITUALLY HEALIN' TO YOU & ME.

SO, THA NEXT TIME, THAT YOU FIND;

YOU ACTUALLY POSSESS NO PEACE OF MIND,

BETTER PAUSE TO ASK YOURSELF,

WHILE YOU'RE HANGIN', BELOW THA SHELF;

IF, YOU'RE OPENIN' YOUR OWN HEART...

OR, MERELY BREAKIN' DOWN IN PARTS.

'CAUSE, THE MORE MISERY YOU CONSUME;

THA MORE YOU FEEL THE DISMAL GLOOM.

​

CAUSE READILY CONSUMIN' SO MUCH HATE;

DEFINITELY DOESNT MAKE YOU FEEL GREAT.

INSTEAD, IT EATS YOU UP INSIDE, 

WHERE YOU CAN NEVER TRUTHFULLY HIDE, 

SUCH SUFFERIN' & SINFUL GRIEF;

ALONG, WITH GETTIN' NO REAL RELIEF.

AND, YOU CERTAINLY CANNOT BE;

LOOKIN' TO BLAME ALL THAT, UPON ME,

WHEN I'M JOYFUL, BY MYSELF,

JUST SITTIN' HERE, WITH NO ONE ELSE.

THUS EVEN, WHEN I OFTEN FIND,

THAT I COULD HAVE A PRETTY GOOD TIME;

SENSUALLY SHARIN' THIS HEART OF MINE,

ANOTHER SONG; ANOTHER RHYME,

WITH SOMEONE EQUAL TA MYSELF;

ONE; WHO'S AS HAPPY ON THA SHELF...

BEIN' PEACEFUL & BEIN' KIND,

FOR HIS OWN BLESSED PEACE O' MIND.

YEAH, IT DOESN'T MATTER; NOW, TO ME...

IF, HE WOULD TRULY, RATHER READ:

THE TALMUD & KORAN,

OR, MAYBE THE BIBLE, JUST FOR FUN.

BUT, HE KNOWS; WHAT'S HONESTLY REAL.

AND, IT'S ALL ABOUT; HOW YOU FEEL.

INSTEAD, OF CONTAMINATIN' YOUR OWN HEALTH;

TRYIN' TO PLEASE EVERYONE ELSE,

BY BOLDLY; BUT, BLINDLY FOLLOWIN' ALONG,

WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S RIDICULOUS SONG.

SO NOW, THIS PROVES SUCH A TIME,

WHEN I'M CHARMED 2ACTUALLY CALL U MINE;

& TRULY CHERISH ROMANCE 4MYSELF,

I'M GLAD 2HAVE REMAINED, UPON THA SHELF.

SIMPLY HAPPY 2CLEARLY BE;

HERE TOGETHER; YOU & ME.

SINcerely,

M

HEART OF THE    HOMELESS

THE HEART OF THE HOMELESS AIN'T NUTHIN NEW;
LOST & FORLORN IN A DESOLATE VIEW.
DISCOUNTED & DISCARDED; BOTH, IT'S TRUE,
WITH NO MORE DISDAIN COMING, FROM YOU.

YEAH, PEOPLE PASS BY... EACH & EVERYDAY;
NO LONGER LOOKING THE OTHER WAY.
NOR, OFFERING ONLY A CRITICAL STANCE,
NOTHING KEEPS YOU, FROM A SERIOUS GLANCE.

STOP TO GET A GENUINE CLUE,
REALIZE QUITE QUICKLY; THIS COULD BE YOU.
WHEN ONLY ONE PAYCHECK OR POSSIBLY TWO;
REALLY SEPARATES THEM, FROM MOST OF YOU.

NO, THAT ISN'T TOO SQUEAMISH A THOUGHT.
SO, DON'T TURN YOUR HEAD & THINK OF NAUGHT;
DON'T BUY A PURCHASE TO THEN, MAKE HASTE...
OR INVARIABLY GORGE & THEN, TO WASTE.
'CAUSE, WHATEVER EXTRA YOU MIGHT HONESTLY HAVE...
SHOULD GO TO A NEEDY GAL OR MAN;

TO HELP POOR SOULS, WHO NEED A HOME,
SOMEWHERE TO GO & SOMEWHERE TO ROAM.
YES, EVEN NOW, AS YOU READ...
YOU'RE CERTAINLY PROFESSING; "I'LL DO MY DEED!"
NOONE LEFT TO, OPENLY BLEED;
FROM BASTARDOUS BANKS OR POLITICAL GREED.

YES, TO THEM; IT WAS ALL, JUST A GLOBAL GAME,
WHILE A PHANTOM DISEASE TOOK THE BLAME.
EVEN, WHILE THEY HID IN VIRTUAL DISGUISE;
INEVITABLY PLANNING EVERYONE'S DEMISE.
BUT, YOU STAYED WITHIN YOUR COMFORTABLE HOME,
KNOWING YOU'RE INDESTRUCTIBLY STRONG,
JUST TELLING A JOKE OR PLAYING A SONG,
WHILE THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD RIGHTED THIS WRONG.

HOSPITALS & DOCTORS ARE TELLING THE TRUTH,
WHILE NURSES ARE DANCING IN PUBLIC VIEW.
AND, THE GRIM REAPER LAUGHS, OVER THE THOUGHT;
HE'S JUST RESTING AT HOME FOR HER WORK IS NAUGHT,
ANYTHING MORE, THAN AN AVERAGE DAY.
AND, THIS SUPPOSED PANDEMIC WAS ONLY A WAY,
FOR "THE POWERS, THAT WERE", TO GET LOCKED AWAY.
INSIDE THEIR HOMES; STILL CHAINED, BY FEAR...
CLEARLY CAGED, WITHIN THOSE DOUBTS; MY DEAR.

SO, WHILE YOU REST, UPON SUCH LAZY LAURELS;
POISONOUS POLITICIANS GET JAILED ON HEINOUS MORALS,
OF PROGRAMMING & CONTAMINATING EACH & ALL...
SO, THAT "WE THE PEOPLE" MIGHT SOMEHOW FALL,
UNDER AN HABITUALLY EVIL SPELL,
WHILE REMAINING IMPRISONED, WITHIN THAT HELL...
TOO IGNORANT & BLIND, TO KNOW; WHAT THEY DO...
RIGHT HERE; RIGHT NOW; OUT IN PLAIN VIEW.

YES, TAKE A REAL GOOD LOOK, BEFORE WALKING AWAY...
FROM THE NEXT HOMELESS PERSON; YOU SPY THIS DAY.
BECAUSE, ALL TOO SOON, IT MAY JUST BE...
THAT YOU NOW DWELL, WITHIN THE HEART OF THEE.

JUST ONE MORE PERSON, WITHOUT A HOME;
LEFT DESOLATE & WITH NOWHERE TO ROAM,
WHILE TYRANTS & DICTATORS STEAL AWAY...
EVERYTHING YOU HAD YESTERDAY.

SO, DO NOT TURN ASIDE; ONCE MORE,
FROM ALL THAT TRUTH & ALL THAT GORE...
REMEMBER, I GRAVELY DID IMPLORE,
THAT ALL THIS MIGHT HAPPEN; NEVERMORE.


SINcerely,

​

NOT TOSSIN' MY LIFE OUT, WITH THE DIRT;

NOR LOOSIN' MYSELF IN ALL, THAT HURT...

JUST KEEPIN' FIERCE & STAYIN STRONG.

STILL SINGIN' OUR PIED PIER SONG;

KEEPIN' SANE & DOIN' JUST FINE.

FOCUSED; ON MAKIN' MORE LOVE THIS TIME.
