SLAM!

As I'm sitting in my room at this very moment a thought came upon me. I started rapping in my head and at the same time I was thinking that I should write a poem. So while the creative juices are flowing I thought that it would be a cool idea for me to do some slam poetry right now! Here I go...

As I live upon the earth there seems to be so much I'm missing
The urge to get my life together becomes my first intuition
Now if I'm speaking politically do I become a politician?
And if we give to the ungrateful, do we still celebrate Thanksgiving?


We pledge allegiance to a flag
Call gay people fags

But let someone insult us, we're the epitome of mad.
I appreciate love 'cause it was something I never had
And if I could be the first, I would much rather come in last.

I don't sit in the light to "go green"
I don't scream to make a scene
But I do wear fake ice because I'm at a shortage with my cream


But it's life. The poor or middle class
Pay $40 after 12am to shake their a**
While the rich, get in free VIP look down at us and just laugh.


But it's life, and we live it
Rich or poor we live it
If we can't meet the standards of society, we create our own gimmicks.
Because it's life.


And scene! I hope you enjoy it. I'm going to leave this one untitled or let you name it.

    Another one. You're talented. I see you were born to write. You're a great blogger, poet and journalist. Keep it up girl.

    And P.S. I'm sorry about the Alicia Keys job, but you had my vote and you're a Superwoman to me. You won't need that job to make it. You're making it right here baby girl.
