Emulating Stars of Maybe

Emulating Stars of Maybe

A Poem by apennylate
"

Ray-stuns and gravy...

"
Emulating stars of maybe in May, hey baby, ray stuns and gravy
I'm alive and unfettered bravely
I'm better than wetter dogs with rabies, a slave to crazy, still jive and raving
Dime shot on sight, creeping hog tied up tight, and I'm slightly light in the pockets
Mark-it and hearken, steady ready caulk-it
Off-it like rockets I'm parkin' and stalkin' on foot at the market
I stray when I pursue loose grooves with my pick...
No-stop-it
Can't slick-pin her, hoppin' to the sloppin', and next target is barkin'
I'm farther than a garden guarded by sovereign guardians pawin' 'n' slobberin' 
Lower than drains clogged with pain runnin' on sugar-bane
Can it tame the blame that I swing wildly like a cane
Like a similie for lame, I'm lamer than lame
Now steady aim and pray we can coast today, mope and sway
Lay to rest grace, but sashay when slain
Sass and flame?
Hah...
Might as well use our brains.
Use our lanes to go nowhere, or somehere I never know, but something has to flow
Indeed it knows the deed of rose, and crows that fold and blow on slopes
The corpse is coarse, of course I'm morose
The host is boasted roast, and I'm hoisting oats to make up gropes in the dark
I'm not dark I swear I'm far from it, an ark of ravens slayin' carpets
Now the pavement calls me, need a beat-back symphony to make it...
No problem
You lay the six by me, and I'll do the farmin'
Just remember...
No sobbin'

Love the line about being better than wet dogs with rabies.

This is a great piece. another one that just proves what a poetry force you are. I love writing poetry, and a few of my pieces are some of the best things I've written, but I can't force it, and it can be tricky to come up with new poems. Reading your work is truly inspiring. Thank you for that. Great job.

sounds like a rap, like when musicians used to write about things with meaning and passion. Superb.

Thank you, Risen, it means a lot to hear I inspire musical appreciation
The way the pace slowly slows down towards the end is very much admirable. As always, didn't understand much of it, yet was very fun to read. Nicely penned!

"Might as well use our brains.
Use our lanes to go nowhere, or somehere I never know, but something has to flow", I especially liked these lines.
A little hard to understand for me but it's got a nice ring to it. Good job with it 👍
