Indecencies Of The Mind

Spoken Words From A Thoughtful Pen

I’d give you a piece of mind

But sorry it weighs a ton 

I might hold a peace sign

But I’m equipped with a gun

Too minor to make a difference

But I’m chilling enough

Time to put my foot down

Enough is enough

A diamond in the rough

Losing its luster 

Wish I could muster the strength

But it hurts 

Engraving pain within the verse

These words deserve a Hearst

The worst just serve the church

In search of happiness

What’s happening?

Grappling challenging thoughts

Channeling everything that I’ve been taught 

You I remember

But it seems me you forgot 

What’s another Black teen shot?

But a stale routine to cops?

Statistics of the block

Another victim of the cross

& a child’s dreams lost

Exhausting every resource

Seeking recourse of reaction to every action

Lack of satisfaction in the pleasantries

Note that happiness is sold separately 

Desperately in search of remedies

Dissecting through destiny 

I realize just how much you meant to me

& now I realize that it’s you

If it’s true to the heart

Then the mind will follow suit 

Wasted time is quick sand

I need to make a move 

Distantly delusional depicting illusions 

Creating confusion dissecting conclusions

& connecting beginnings
