I crown you.
Queen of my Imagined Nation
Model of your own philosophy
Super heroine in your own action flick
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain or
Hand up your skirt. It ain’t mine.
Base pumpin’ Booty thumpin’ Wah Wah whipped walkin’ theme
For the sheer joy of starring at that strut
I will always see you through these eyes
How they see you is up to you.
“Walk dat walk Honey
Talk dat talk Money”
Damn Reggie, where are you when I need to steal another sweet line?
Ain’t no such thing as a casual observer
I take off your collar &
Crown you
Author of your own destiny
Silver Fox, young Oracle
Flick that kid another one point four of
them mega bite joints you got on your utility belt.
Hand gesturing “Hey Baby…
Dammit Kanye, why’d you have to pimp my next line?
But I do like all those ballerinas.
Alright I did it…
You told me to do the same shit you’ve been doing since you started doing that shit, just without you.
Quit playin!
I break your bonds &
Crown you
Designer of your own temple of gratitude.
Goddess of your own realm.
Inspiration of your own universe
I didn’t ask you to try
Don’t get mad and leave like Ivo
Twenty and a half times.
Still ain’t got no ring, still don’t get the point.
How can I make me team better by…
Pen name on your own graphic
Novel, Sex tape, Fairy tale, Nursery rhyme, Proverb
When times get hard
somebody’s child is going to
find these words you inspire
remember these words you inspire and
through tears and cuts, bruises and abrasions
use these words you inspire to
lull their child to sleep.
“On the day you were conceived
angels got together and conspired to
pack a piece of heaven in your frame
give a dream a pair of legs
brand the taste of fruit that nourish &
enrich the children of your realm with your name
I crown you
Muse of your own legacy
Subject of your own holy teachings
Chin up, back straight, walk slowly, with intent & dream out loud!
Genuflect in awe of what your love has produced
Taj Mahal ain’t got nothing on the plot I’m building in your honor
Before I lay down me to rest
Not one child who knows your name
will greet a day
Hungry,
Cold,
Afraid,
Alone,
I needed, wanted, hoped, prayed, waited, imagined, designed, planned &
Finally, you I write
There’s nothing you can do about it.
You made yourself real
In gratitude
I crowned you
