I am not magnificent
opulent, impoverished pestilence
desire, rotting and putrid
ruined, crystal towers, dirt
ground down
aeons seek to leech from order yore


winter, summer, fall, and spring
ice in cracks upon years
water seeps into deep fears
flume to channel, weeps
toss the gold into the tomb of kings


harp and zither, drum and string
third the chord and major fifth
spiraling
octaves building palaces of radiance
gradient, echoes spectrums broadly
carry notes far from origins past


summon passion, time, and thing
flood maroon in corners
shadows dance
sun giants made of lakeside trees
emblem wrought of the pull's familiar swing

....neat.

I wanna bust some rhymes!

Um....

You can try all night to generate your own light
but in the end you just might
need a lantern or a lamp to show your ass the way
off the couch and back to the highway on-ramp
so you can get the fuck on to your shitty job in the city
and suck on your boss's knob while wishing it was a titty.
Here, kitty-kitty, have some catnip, it'll send you on a decent trip
check the deep telemmetry, investigate the recent blips
on the plasma screen, what could they possibly mean?
Can you find a safe financial haven and save the AIDS-infested maiden?
or just watch the world perish from the comfort of your couch, saying
I just want to see the cookie crumble and the ball bounce....

(That's all i got so far.)
