My World Poetry Slam Man

Today is World Poetry Day and I am not much on the rhymes

However if I took a little time I could find some in my soul.

My soul is a place where the gladness, madness and fire comes from.

My blog is truth tellin’ and on point from where I sit or stand

The work I do comes from a great demand for saving lives

That ain’t no jive man.

You may find this lame but I am new to the game at least I am tryin

When you read this you may be dyin or cryin or lyin to save my heart

But somewhere you gotta start

So this is my story for the moment maybe I am a poet and I didn’t even know it.

Hard

Sometimes you think too hard
You can work too hard

Maybe you love too hard
Often you are hardly there

The bed is hard
Your heart and your head is hard

Candy can be hard
Sleeping on a hard floor

Yep life can be hard
Hard knocks can be hard

This poem was written some time ago. It is not how I feel. However the universe might feel this way.

Rivalries

Yankees vs. Mets
Tom vs. Jerry
Road Runner vs. Coyote

Microsoft vs. Apple
Rivalries are a part of life
Competition and contests

Nation vs. Nation
Tribe vs. Tribe
War vs. Peace

Mocs vs. Bucs
City vs. City
Contestants

Sometimes they are destructive

Ideas
People vs. People
Individuals vs. themselves

Rivalries are a part of life
