intentions of living behind enemy decisions
lethal precision, equal in crimson, people will listen
once bullets start flying, the cruelest start dying
leaving prudence in a pool of sharks hiding
what I encompass in my compass is substance
runnin with armed soldiers who come from nothin
bottom of the barrel, left and forgotten
obstacles are often the options of the rotten
dodging our sodem to make it to the promise land
broken bones and dreams lead us to our promises
its obvious we are soldiers or fortune
either loading rifles or coffins with corpses
I know that its morbid, we never asked for this
country to go south, now we're savages

space
Two aimless stars collide in the dark of space.
Dictated by quantum design
propelling purpose and “place”; our worth,now, engaged
Was it God? A divine conduct? My life, a dark, mindless murky of space
But she taught there’s beauty in the dark and truth in the angle
What lurks an array of colors portrayed in salient contour.
Observe how absence appraise our worth with distance...
"Apart". "A Part" - see how space can make a world of difference?
What's yours? “Let it sink in.”
An allure? A twisted descent? Whatever it was, she had me.
Perhaps her heightened sense of wonderment
Scraping the skies to converse in spaces between words
And time ceased to exist in between gaze.
Her smile, peach, summer fizz and spring berry wine
She riddled secrets of the stars, her meanings became MY totality
As I breathe in ocean silt, staring out this ivory balcony
