When I peeped the title I thought it had something do with Popa.
Interesting piece but yeah it does lose you, not in the sense of terminology but in the sense of continuity.

Thanks. The replay is the motif of the poem. If I took it out, the gimmick would be gone. The concept works on that I keep having to start again because the words I choose are not articulating my thoughts.

Holy fucking shit.

Kid B · Post by **Kid B** » Tue May 10, 2005 1:04 am

A little backstory on this one: a couple of months ago I was in a slam and this little whiteboy was on stage reciting some poetry which was delivered in an angry wannabe tough guy tone. He spit some shit around 11 minutes long, way over the time constraints, like a late-show monologue which was unbearable to listen to. It was a plea to vote him into the second round, with a refrain that beared the same words. After this debacle he read a poem that featured himself as a "protector and guardian" for women. It was very ignorant and implied that women need a man who can step in and be the hero for them in life. He employed a lot of hyperbole and consequently inspired me to drop this piece about his performance style and intentions. I plan to bring it next slam.

Standing tough talkin with an urban dialect
Fact is you're suburban from what I inspect
Raised on MTV, BET and Shady/Aftermath
Looking like a sad clown on the way of a disastrous path
See, poetry is not solely to sate self-esteem and spark histrionics
It's for the few who write even in the dark forever hooked on phonics
I observe the dialogue, demeanor and idiosyncracies
It's simple to see you're a 21st century minstrelcy
And I'm not aiming to knock you down off your pedestal
But if your pedestal's penis is spitting poetry on the stage you better fall
It's cool to stand for something with a cause then to fall for everything
Yet you stand tall frontin for applause, and that's very sickening
Dig down deep into your self and find your true voice to rock right
It's your choice, talk about holdin a glock tight or get real like Walter Kronkite
Nothing new here that hasn't already been said
Writers never die and sometimes they fly right over your head
And drop shit that'll prompt you to discover a watershed
Messages are important but remain careful not to grandstand
No one wants to see a mic in the mouth of a poet doing a handstand
Choose words carefully is what my English teacher taught me in tenth grade
Keep it sweet and short not bitter and long like it's lemonade
And lemonade was a popular drink and it still is
I hope this poem didn't bring out some feelings
Cuz that's not my purpose to lambast you with lip service
Relax for a while and practice your style
So you're not so damn nervous
And nervous in terms of
Perception and viewpoints
Be yourself for your health and return with some new joints

Gradually, gravity's a slap on the cheek, layed about happily within the cold streams, under Emotive's Rock

Cocksmith Graduate, top of the class, opted by a pash, a champ's clash of agendas, mended rehashed

Adjacent in the Peoples' House basement...where freebasin' is the A+ sin that accompanies a soul-encasement

Reincarnated from the depths of Heaven...whenever angels that dangle the angle of Seven deems it right for self-esteem percolating

Apostolic Successor, transgressor birthed from anguished womb-to-womb ritual languish, ancient, The Good Mother should vanish...or, give-in to hide

After overt nudist vagabonds and a bandwagon of rapists gave a chase to her...femalien-fetus aborted, only to re-enter Earth as a blissful bride

Explorer, ocean-floor enjoyer on a voyeuristic voyage due to non-employment.....endorsed a multitude of Cousteau-doppelgangers

Endangered, like the oyster...for lack of a liquified-substance, for lack of a surface that's a tadbit moister

To disfrock oneself of the apparent vestiges that anchors a mentality to the docks of Rancor Lake

Scapegoat deepthroat sensitivity...akin to Dana Vespoli/Katja Kassin-proclivity for starring roles of video nasty bukkake

Advantages of verbal-spillage pillaged thorougly through Potemkin Village-Anatomy as the skimmish orphans mosey about the neighborhood, scenario worst case

Pragmatists recanted at the disadvantage of how mismanaged-anger got kids resembling strangers, substantiating mangers as their birthplace

Infused with personal loss and sorrow...another day will arise for the sun rays in the sky to have someone else bothered by tomorrow

Elements of etiquette, eloquence squinched by the six senses dispensed...squeezing Early into a Late Pass, seizing, squeezing ice, liquid and gas for a borrow

word, pretty direct compared to your normal style, but understandable given the situation.

BeHemoth · Post by **BeHemoth** » Tue May 10, 2005 6:48 pm

lets see, well a lot of your reference are a bit too direct i.e. hunger, starvin, taste, etc. are all related. it starts of interestin then trails off around the line I mentioned previously and save for a couple of lines durin that span there are only a couple of lines that even garner a second look. that bein said it wasnt terrible by any stretch of the imagination, just not the type of shit that leaves an impression. I liked where you were tryin to go with concept, I just dont think you completed your objective.

"The Ontology of Pharmacology Biotechnology"

The "nature of being" on "drugged" biotechnology

These words of ontology create my heightened epistemology

My nature of being creates a greater understanding of the validity of knowledge

leading to the ideology of living my life without all apology.

I have no regrets living my life by my own moral standards

I know that I should probably care more about my psychology

I should show more concern about my mental well being

than I do about pharmacology creating the newest technology

Instead of doing drugs and creating new inventions

to make my physical neurology a living lab of anesthesiology

My brains fried off drugs

but this aforementioned possabology
