"a poet's love song"
raging warriors made mad love to the mic and penned a new beginning for hungry souls at venues last days near death defiant acts gave rise to celestial heights 'what the fuck are we fighten for anyway?' who wins the war for black souls layed to rest at the end of the night when all that was searched for was a nut? they came here to get an orgasm free of their own hands so they too can remain free from sin...
sistahs cry for men to rescue them from their own demise waiting in line for another brother to keep them safe from the pillows war story beautiful are the women that come to these places looking for a spoken word to express their anguish and maybe for a moment feel understood, just to walk alone basking in the arms of a poet's love song.
