~Fearless~

So, like I said this morning, I woke up in a silly and nostalgic mood, but Patricia’s message was more important to get out first. 

Anyhoo, I was thinking about Myspace strangely.  Now, my parts of our book are from some of the poetry I did while we haunted there.  A lot of it’s free verse, dark and heavy, but some of my friends, myself included, would do essentially online slams/poetry offs until someone tapped out.  It was cool, because we each had our own style.  My crew coined my style “Chop,” because I’d start with a complete phrase, but I could chop it down to single words with the same potency as full sentences and it still made sense.

Let’s see if I can still spit:

It’s been a bit since I’ve spit
Not that I quit
They haven’t slowed
Nor have I showed
Restraint
Bold paint
Strokes
To help blokes
Crips
Rip
Through this called life
With my wife
Two Feet Below
Never slow
Like Mel’s declaration
FEARLESS coronation

Blushing
Flushing
Psssha
I never saw
See
Just me
We
Two
Trying to make it through
This one-way trip
And help tip
The scales for future crips’
Favor
Savor
What they reap
To pass to the next peep.

Be good to each other.

-J-

PS. So, I went a little serious in my message anyhoo.
