The Anti Poet (Unfin)

Tired of the urban poet sterotype. What's sick is that even the poets have bought into the hype and treat you funny if you don't fit the mold.

Maybe it's because I cut my 'locks.

Or could be that I dismiss labels.

Might be 'cause I don't quote Pac

To seem in tune with streetborn angles

 

I feel that I'm the anti poet

Last of the Iconoclasts

Destroying what you view important

Master of a dying class

 

I'm not about to burst in song

or play invisible instruments

or act a role or play along

and I wil never talk...like...this

 

Because I am the anti poet

King of all Iconoclasts

Flushing idols down the toilet

You're false I'll smash your lying a*s

 

 

 

Break the mold.  THINK! IT AIN'T ILLEGAL YET.

Heh, it reminds me of a peice I'd written "in the old days." Love the sentiment and can relate. What's even worse is feeling like you need to aspire to some image to fit in with these non-rhythmic, non-rhyming, un-rhapsodic entertainers who refer to themselves as poets. Structurally, though, I must say I exected something more complex from you.

I certainly will join you at not fitting the mold. I can quote a little Pac at times, though. Looks like you are breaking out of the bling and the worn stereotypes that sell empty dreams. I really enjoyed your poem, it's full of unique thoughts and feelings. You designed this well!

but you hold to poetic form I suppose in this time of free form writing that makes you a rebel

please dont use the word "aint" its just annoying.
A good piece but non comformity is a trend nowadays.
