So I Hear (Free verse) by Vince Dolamando
So I hear there are some poets up in here
Some real poets
Not the kinda who just read and rhythm
But the kinda who take the time to speak their mind
Not the kind who are so addicted to the revolution
That there badgering and constant arguments lesson the solution
SO I hear there are some poets up in here
But I am not looking for how many times you can say the word ass/bitch/
dick/fuck/
Because poetry should be about the meaning not the words you add b.c you
think it will cause a RU-CUS
Because so many of you poet activists are trying to make us âCome
Aroundâ
That you have yet to realize that while you have been yelling at us,
this place has become a new townâ¦with out you
And your arguments have become so outdated
And your yelling thoughts make you seem jaded
So I hear there are some poets real up in here
And that what I fear
B/c some of you grab a beer
Write with tearsâ¦and think its dear
Some of you write
I had a cat
He is fat
Then he died
And so I cried
Bitch I donât care about your rhythmic pussy
The only way youâre going to make me cum and see you
Is to write with your blood, not your feared tearsâ¦
And although I enjoy the rhythm
That doesnât give you the right to run away with my time
And begin to wine
B/c if thatâs the case, damnâ¦let me grab my 2nd grade notebook
And wow you with my 2nd grade angst
So I hear there are some poets up in here
And some of you use poetry for music sense
And I am happy and glad
Yet scarred and sad
You see I am afraid you might falling into the world of flash flash
flashing lights
And forget to pour out your heart
While most of you know of poetic godsâ¦some of you donât know of the
music gods
The Beatles, coldplay, and my girl Lauren hill
Are just some of them who battled up hill
b/c Lauren hill, just like meâ¦we:
âI play our enemies like a game of chess, where I rest,
No stress
I must confess, my destiny's manifest
In some Goretex and sweats I make treks like I'm homeless
Bless you if you represent the Fu
But I'll hex you with some witch's brew if you're Doo Doo
Voo Doo,
I can do what you do, easy, BELIEVE ME
Frontin' niggas give me hee-bee-gee-bees
So while you're imitating Al Capone
I'll be Nina Simone
And defacating on your microphone.â
Did you hear thatâ¦spoken from a true African queenâ¦
and yet I hear and see some poets acting like Britney spears
Whose toxic nasty ass is complaining that sheâs so lucky
yet she cries cries cries in her lonely heartâ¦
fuck thatâ¦thatâs girl is such a Ho, she be quefen out fartsâ¦.
So I hear there are some poets up in here
And I hope to god, they speak whatâs on their mind
B/c to many of them add to much pizzazz and lose the sign
B/c poetry should be protected by the law
And to many of you poets are just last seasonâs shit...who have FALL-
in
So to move back in time, we must âsummerâize
And speak with our mind/heart to spring ahead
We must win-terexchnage our inner thoughts of becoming the next big shit
B/c not all of us are 2-legit to quite
So I hear there are some poets up in here
But can anyone tell me where there at?
Didnât think so
