An Ode To A Queen / For My Lady

An Ode to a Queen

Oh, caramel female

My eyes are set on you,

And in heaven I dwell,

Oh, brown-skinned female,

Let your vessel sail,

In my sea,

Can I compliment you

With lines of poetry?

They say beauty is skin deep,

But these words are for my soul to keep,

I treasure visions of you,

Knowing that I forever need you,

So pretty you be,

You make the poet make love to similes,

Your beauty is as mysterious

As the world seventh wonder,

When you walk, it thunders,

For nice things to say to you I ponder,

Oh, caramel female,

My eyes in heaven dwell,

When I see you

Oh, brown-skinned female.

So-Called Playas

So-Called Playas

Many who call themselves playas

Have gotten played,

From a righteous path they strayed,

Misusing the talents God gave,

To the world they act like slaves,

The ones who walk the path

Our ancestors paved,

Now look at how we behave,

Knowing God only can save us,

But He we do not trust,

But for guns, dope, and money is what we lust,

So as the cycle continues

The confused avenues

Of greed versus need,

Leaving our own blood to bleed,

While our forefathers died to learn to read,

We mislead,

And do not take heed

Of the right teaching,

And if I am to rhyme this,

Then it is quit preaching.
