For you see I hold the pen

Just having some fun

 

For you see I hold the pen

by jack

 

Destined of the soft parade

Along the dotted line

Whispering amongst the shade

In just the nick of time

 

Street lights sway upon the wind

A course to find the foe

Shouting but to catch my breath

Of songs now sung below

 

Call me names now if you like

For sticks and stones don’t care

Left becomes the new found right

If you are going there

 

I will fight until the death

As armies tend their knives

Sorted comes my honored breath

In terms to realize

 

Spit between your crooked teeth

And laugh a hearty laugh

Practicing what I do preach

Behold the aftermath

 

When your feet do stand in mud

So filled with blood of red

Falling with a caustic thud

As everyone is dead

 

Still you question what is this

Your eyes they scan the scene

Through the pages you do flip

Your worthless magazine

 

I will rise up through the flame

Amidst the trumpets blare

Wearing not an ounce of shame

For eyes that blindly share

 

For you see I hold the pen

These verses that I write

Flow from deep within my mind

As I can’t sleep this night

 

Always I will wear the grin

Of this melodic time

For my battles I will win

Right here inside my rhyme

 

So bring your tanks, your weapons too

For I will stand this ground

As my cheers will ring on through

In echoes of my sound

 

Wave your flags and banners high

Proclaim this holiday

As I sneak this poem by

For you to read today

Ha, not sure what to say about this one...full of moxy and potent venom! I like a lot, it's not your typical writing which makes me swoon, but this reaches into my guts and says 'hey, pay attention!! '... You always hit a high note, no matter where you go with your pen...great read.
