I drove home in a fog.
My mind was
circling, circling, circling
Draining me.
I didn't know how I would
make it home
Fearfully trying to see
It was then I heard
My son
Breathing
Sleeping
Peacefully beside me.
I realized, instantly,
This boy was by far
the most important thing.
Bigger than me.
Worth more than my life or my happiness, love, pain or anything.
Everything
My world fell
violently down
into focus in
dazzling clarity.
A peace settled over me,
A piece of me broke off
Fell to the road, and I
Left it far behind me.
I'm in the business
Of wishing people Merry Christmas,
I'm efficient,
Deliver several every minute,
But let me predicate,
I mean it when I make the statement,
It's a definite.
From the heart, it isn't fake,
I didn't find it on the internet and cut n paste it.
I made it, bubble-wrapped it up and taped it,
So take it...
From me,
Special delivery.
Devastating impact,
Heavy artillery.
I'm Sentimental devil with a questionable quality,
Lyrically equipped with an armament of artistry...
Seasons greetings.
Save a prayer for me...
~to Tatsi, sincerely, Sneakytree ;p
Never have I ever
tried to rhyme before...
Never even gave it so much as a try before. Never knew what all the chatter and the hyping was over. Blissfully ignorant, no desire to know, sir.
Be like
"if there's one thing I'd never be, it's a rapper. It's a pointless, shallow, exercise in selfish vanity. Just testing the limits of allowable profanity, and musical inanity. Seriously" I made a point to look away, ignore the whole art form, on principle. My mind was made, etched upon the bedrock,
invincible.
The wind and rain and sand will grind me up, I'd just smile at my indestructible idol, vicariously carrying me on in denial,
forever.
