Poetry Is........

[VSOP]

leaving the one you love for the one you love more

finding out the one you love more is the one you love less

and the one you love is turns into a ghost haunting your mindset

holy shit I love these lines!

i got you

POETRY IS....

my addiction

I'm sick with it

sometimes I dont have it but I stick with it hoping to write myself miles away from this block

POETRY IS

hip hop

POETRY IS

my flip flops flappin in the wind as my earphones bump southernplaylistic

or some Wu-Tang Clan

rhymes sneak along with the whispers that whisk through the slits between my teeth

POETRY IS

my mindstate

poetry may seem like suicidal notes in my computers top right hand drawer written down on post it notes

like "I don't wanna live more, knockin on deaths door, but theres no answer"

the angel of death is my private dancer

but shes slippin me tips on how to kill myself faster

i listen

...cuz that bitch is THICK

POETRY IS

a fucked up day

jotted down on a page with rage against the machine

like your mad at the pen and you wanna see it bleed ink

rippin the notebook apart like thats gonna change the way you think

like the government is actually gonna read

you writing a million lines of FUCK BP like Bart Simpson's chalkboard

POETRY IS

my escape when I'm bored

I'll write about anything , I'm aboard

POETRY IS

my imagination running wild like I carry a 44

like Hacksaw and his mighty board

POETRY has my mind sore

my mind soars and rhymes explore the deep jungle of my mind

my mind is forced to write and have every action followed by millions like its Tigers' course

POETRY IS

listening to Recovery and Bar Exam 3

I was fucked up and failed the first 2 times

no A's, B's, C's, D's,F's

All I got was Z's

I'm lying, I wasn't asleep, I was wide awake

the Poetry on these tapes is amazing

POETRY IS

my explanation of my life

my intervention of my life

my education about my life

my vacation from my life

my temptations from my life

my contemplations to end my life

POETRY IS

my outlet that I stuck my pencil in and crazy ass stories bled out my ears

on to a page of "Dear John" letters that I'm writing myself

because I'm alone

and POETRY IS

my only friend

Poetry is

An expression of self

when only words can express how ya felt

Its the morning and the night

the dawn and the dusk

Its for the ones that you love

and the broads that you lust

It brings calm to many

brings the pleasure when the pain is too much

Its my form of story tellin

the tone I selected

The right words to tell her the moment I exit

Its the rain and the storm

both a gift and a curse

It brings out pain from before

that tore through like wind liftin the earth

Its my family, my love, my wisdom and knowledge

Itll still be when my kids get in college

forever, infinity, for always you know this

It clears the path when hallways aint focused

Repeats hopeless, happy, desperate times

Excedes potions, clapping, necklace shines

Far from materialistic but on some slickness

Words flow smoothly like water under the bridges

Now can I get a witness?

Yes poetry is, my story, your life, our words

It starts in the center then spreads outwards

Meaning, it reach everyone wether they listen or not

Cause I preach my gospel to the world not just a listenin block.

Man ya'll is killing it! all of ya'll had some good stanzas.. props to that..

So lemme dabble with this..

Poetry is my everything

like lilacs that bloom in spring,

a husband but me with no ring.

It's my quick fix for what i fiend

like herion going in your vien,

its here when I"m screaming in vain

its there when nothing's contained

and listens to all my blames,

ressurecting my soul that once burned in flames

expressing the things that once clinged

im not talking of the bling

im talking of the stuff i've seen,

i've experinced, perhaps my concerns

or the worlds discerns.

Poetry is epic,

verses of dialouge with intent

words that can be conversed,

rehearsed or dispersed

in fact reversed.

Poetry is my therapy

letting my words flow like flowtry

a life of my registry

perhaps this is my ecstasy

a pen and paper with some hennesey.

Yea this me spittin solo

busting hard like the riffle

better go get your bible

and recite the verses

reading my words making you go loco

braced for critiques like stucco

shoulda known that name,

instead of waiting for answers

see im sick of this cancer

making ya'll feel ill while tryna deal wit it

now just be still with it, not stale with it

im like uggh this is what's poetry

drop a dolla bill

and I tell a true story

of the kills

or tryna eat another meal

can ya'll feel for real

or ya'll lost your feel

forget the industry deals

i rather stay in these heels

and keep writing an making ya'll feel

cause Im in love with what poetry is..

Yo, that shit was off the top of my mind, i didn't get a chance to write it out, i typed as my thoughts was venting.

Epic...epic stuff i'm seeing in this thread....keep it going yall

poetry is...

the fling i found at the mall the other day

about to make whoopie and brag all day

to my boys about how much this jawn is bad

intellectual and has a old school persona

new school if she wants to be

maybe i'm falling but not just yet...maybe eventually

to the crib we go and shes sitting legs crossed

telling me its all on you on how you do me

she started saying things that made my spirit roam smoothly

"just vent and tell me your every moments"

i don't know what to say towards her like god in the mist of flesh

a hidden glow upon a gem she resembles

my eyes grew watery and my heart open upon thee

shes the epitome of what true love brings

i think i wanna marry her but i'm afraid she don't see the same thing

all i know is she reads me and proceeds to say yes

only if you are real and not like the the rest

launch your anger upon my thighs

grope me with your love and never trick my mind

give me words that could express your true honest feelings

don't forsake me for its I that's your personal healing

look at me as your get out of jail free card before a incident occurs

the voice within the keys stopping you from losing it

the kiss that settles your thoughts of self disapproval

the motivation to spread knowledge to those that need it

together we are one and you are the secret

to keeping me fresh and pure for those to explore the remedy

of what you brew with my help and pure beauty

enough of the pillow talk baby just do me

make love with your hands and fuck me with your mind

so the climax will have a perfect design

[REAL_POETICAL]

poetry is yin and yang

overrated and unappreciated

one minute you write five lines

the next you a poet

its a shame and unappropriated

unrelated to my eyes

15 years of perfection to be defeated by disguise

youngins typing, writing and inspired but why

could it be self importance or trying to fit in

break out or breaking your own persona

to open doors towards something new

only to see that poetry isn't you

so end the writing and be true to you

because poetry is the epitome of through and thru

not defined for the espresso crowd of few

 

[Tupacfan]

Poetry is...

Like the object of my affection
striving for a simple perfection
its brings up many attention
did I forget to mention,
i rocked poetry the other night
it felt like i was on some plight
see I'm just tryna see the light
And let free like kites.
Poetry is the essence of my presence
An essential piece of my plesantries
poetry is like the plumeria tree,
that only grows on the islands of Hawaii
Somewhere in Kauai or Maui
Poetry is like the sound of ukelee
Hyming the song "over the rainbow"
Poetry is poetry and I'm in love with it...
