where the wild flowers grow

0 posted 2003-07-12 02:20 PM


The turntables,
the microphone cables,
rush a stage beyond a time and a place
where we still stand among the greatest
rhymes..
and reasons to express the freedom
to say, and portray the art that we believe in.
Free
style..
my way up to the golden spiral
staircase,
it leads up to the heavens where the music
plays..and the daughter of soul
sways to a boundless echo.
I fear to tread upon the water for my
feet have been graced with walking slaughter and
my family,
they say they never even knew me till
the sun became nothing
but a star
shooting it's way down my sky like an
anarchist firecracker looking
for a place to hide .. I abide by
the tick tock of time and
let the poetry mock the words that
collaborate in my mind..
Free
style..
I see the sun bow down behind
a hill with flowers that travel for miles and
I lyrically, periodically count and name
each one like it's
special..
But I don't quite remember a time when I
was able to flow so easily
though stage in the middle of nowhere.. it's
quite clear,
           that I'm scared
of  crowds.

If art is still inside, I feel it
