AnnuitA Poem by Abdul Batin Osman BeyTarring myself down, it needs to be done from time to timeI am a loser The worst kind of loser One that is veiled in mystery A self appointed guru to myself The winners are jokes because the losers got there first Stranded on the dirt road of life I find God among heretics I am a heretic Spouting off ancient ideas as if they were new revelations Impressing myself but no one else Spitting in the face of rational thought Proof Who needs proof when you can think for yourself? Writing in a trance state Never thinking a second ahead just rambling on and on Who do I think I am? Surrounding myself with outcasts Sleeping in opium dens, cars, w***e houses, Temples and on Salinger’s couch I must be crazy to walk with Father Allah and Destiny Forcing myself into the life of Michael Muhammad Knight’s Taqwacore scenes Hanging out in basements with Lady Lee Etching the mind of Rafel Pasha Standing on the street corner with Noble Drew Ali Then swimming in oceans of Ethiopia while smoking with Haile Selassie I Sure I helped carry the cross of Christ And yes, I laughed when Judas hung himself What does it matter? I am the Tao The Tao is I Buddha and I meditate dreams of Krishna While Willie Nelson dreams of me looking back at him in the mirror Are you serious? You are a loner A loser Self-controlled addict let lose on the world to take it as I see it Pumping p***y and a*s just for a joke Who am I? Who am i? Who am I? A Nutopia? Boundless? I’ll tell me what I am A cosmic nothing that will die alone surrounded by stuffed animals because you’re too cheap to buy real ones That’s what you are Arrogant b*****d from a long line of b******s So go sit in corner Sob And leave me to my own devices © 2012 Abdul Batin Osman BeyAuthor's Note
