Friday Night Poetry Corner (extra edition) #115

Here is a little something i came up with while listening to Miles Davis jazz channel on Itunes radio..

 

Why did I mention all of that??

 

The hell if I know.

 

 

 

structural inferiority

I wonder for days that when I pray

the pain would simply go away

and to be never seen,

like a rainbow in the Sahara,

masking thoughts of the unclean

I want solutions to be solved without fuss

I want teenagers in front of my building to not

cuss

I look for answers but gets nothing

in return

I talk to elders who lacks wisdom,

and shun the ones who can

discern

Is it true I could be a walking contradiction

lies and truth spoken to one,

it confuses others somewhat,

like this rhythm—its fun.

So in judgment I say,

can this last another day?

A query for you,

an answer to some,

a belief to most

that satisfy none…
