We come here for refuge. for shelter. some surgically split ribcages with lyrics of fury, Others... Let their emotions erupt outta chest cavities and onto keyboards, onto papers, onto other peoples lives.
We come here for rescue. Some of us need rescue from our own writing and some of us come here to extend a poetical ladder trying to save our brethren in need. In need of a "nice drop, keep that shit up!" in need of a release to Focus, our Inkwell, InGeniously, so that possibly someone else has an Epiphany.
We do this for respect among the other buffalo that roam around here. We do this to seperate, and then adhere to our peers.
But Most of All because we all need want have give cherish fight for and lose
POETICAL LOVE

15995, I write because... Posted by Shakeet Lokh Em, Tue Jul-26-05 01:50 PM
I write because Evil is allergic to thought It breeds off ignorance So I let my ink on the page burn it Spurn it Return it To The Father Of The Lie With it's tail in between it's legs Screamin "Dat cat Ralph ain't playin"
I write because My daddy used to And all sons wanna be like their father So I let my ink on the page remember September 21, 1980 When my Heavenly Father Gave me To my Earthly father To be his light In Baltimore's darkness No warm-ups ever needed I always start hot I'm still writin Even after my daddy's heart stopped
I write because I'm a black man with a black past And all white people can't be hated So I let my ink on the page speak Greek And Hebrew Scriptues of love and forgiveness It's way past time for us to move on As my mind blesses me with new psalm I see bright hopes all around us But some see few So I guess in the end, I write Because you want me to

i write tears that strong men are expected to hold back the rage felt as a woman hits you and self respect forbids you to hit back the change in attitudes for the positive because you want your world back then you reflect on who you were when you lost it and see that she won't come back
you will it to happen embodiment of cause and effect universal law in you minature replica of the result of the Big Bang now your head hangs walking slowly in shame feelin' lame as you drive wrecklessly back down memory lane
trying not to go crazy as eye look back that's why i write the tears that a strong man is expected to hold back

Keep on, Keep Keepin On! Show em what you got and drop it in a poem!
Flows come steadily like heavy moving 'lava foam' Mountainous molten spew of an overdue propa' poem No real rhyme scheme for ya'll just rhyming off the top of the dome... for the fun of things. Imagination brings third EYEdeas peeking around corners pokin' jokein' laughing at me with their sneers.
Lead Dive Write, Spit out Fast Tight, Leaving mics lingering in vap-air Quite nice is what we're like, drop outs of D.A.R.E Poetic Pimpology Masters of Rhymology, serenading your psychology with 'fragile-handle' care. Dare to take the challenge of adding on to this Train moments not to be forgotten no matter how damaged the brain Drop the hot shit, FORE!!! leave it steamin' in the rain After BXC leaves the freestyleboard, OKP will never be the same...
Keep Strivin'...Buildin'...Add On...

16003, RE: BoxCarBoys...Ode to Poetry (((OKP Add On))) Posted by delrica, Tue Jul-26-05 06:06 PM
and i don't "feel" poetic today my stories won't translate into rhyming couplets for you to dissect my breaths aren't puns for you to laugh at i can only be myself poetic every day converting O 2 into bic's blue ink spilling my life on pages thirsting to tell its story
and i don't feel poetic today when missing cheerleaders on vacay can have media coverage 24 hours a day but the media can't figure out why news in se dc is always bad see they don't understand poverty is what makes a bad story good and doing something about it will make it even better
but i don't feel poetic today when my ancestors are on street corners peddling their poetry for loose change trying to kick drug habits hiding their illiteracy behind break beats, and beat poetry into the veins of a dying city hoping that they'll catch the rhythm of the cities heartbeat in the palm of their hand massaging it to life again and again
and i don't "feel" poetic today when all i do is breath life poetry and sketch it onto notepads for someone to see where they came from
i just call myself a writer because poetry isn't a feeling it's a state of being and all i can do is be . . . myself

On this train of thougt, I'm the engineer Been derailed by the sinister thoughts of the lack of fear And I still hear Voices in my head that said that the compensation is dead For I'm fed... the kosher You done lost motion and I'm on to the imagery Cuz see, the nonlocomotion words more active then yours Philosophy and phrenology Cuz my mind is releasin energy You say I have your ear, but I doubt your are listening Even tho you are hearin me I feel you're just steerin me In the wrong direction, turnin left at alberquerque I write about that 2...
I'm the modern day rhapsode, desperado driven by calypticism The emotions sheddin light's load, holed up what you catchin in em I write with a pen, nestin and hatchin venom I spit relentless love regardless of the heartless Clubs... I'll write about that 2 When I'm old enough
See, poetry is the soul-food Poetry is the descriptive piece without a discretioned lease of the mood/ A facet in a diamond, a flaw sinnas findin Many silhouettes wish to whet the net against the rock of ages Cuz we capturin eternal knowledge but also problems in these pages
That, is why...
Poetry is eternal. A poem is a life force to other wise dead paper. Poems are expression. We express ways of paths and roads, twisting and obscured or straight forward

traveling through the vision of the mind with the words man has made to define track the tiger through the jungle but don't catch a mine
blow up the beat hustle with the words at your feet biting at you inciting what's true can't ignore the bright lights going off in the corners of the room pause look back at what the mind goes through its a collection of the imagination we have the finest thing laying down the tracks of its facinations....
