Seems when I'm going through it

That's when the pen is fluid

Spilling out verbal vomit like there's nothing to it

Hard-to-get my muse is

Inspiration juices

Then again I don't take time

I must be there for music

Fully preset habit

Back once again and avid

But when I'm willing more like

Shooting blank impotent rabit

But shut up, no excuses

End of day they are useless

Let the graphite hit the page and

Keep it simple stupid

Don't make it convoluted

Overcooking up your thoughts

And never taste what's brewing

And when the effort's truant

It's something incongruent

If the giver gave you gifts

Then gratitudes persuant

Just be a faithful student

Don't stop just keep on at it

Only what's dead is static

Preach to myself these words

And try to make each one emphatic

So with each pen stoke

I persevere and invoke

The me I wish I'd be

The way things outta be

Drip, drop, drip, drop

See what my heart say

Fluid

My heart stay

Fluid

Drip, drop, drip, drop

See what my heart say

Fluid

My heart stay

Fluid

Is it a mere indulgence?

These words on a page

A vain abundance?

An avenue to self-aggrandise

And thus repugnant?

Do these scribbles

Dress me in the emperor's clothes?

A finely spun lie

Which the light will expose?

Impose my own will on a helpless page

Ready to bare all and release my rage

Cause it's a silent victim

Ready to take my scratches and lashes, and mindless hitting

Without a word to contradict

It always takes what's given

In truth that's why I love you

You hear as if there's no one else who ever thought or saw

And witness what I scrawl upon you

Honest to God that's the freedom that you offer

Words without the filter that a better self would proffer

By which I mean the masked one

That masquerades so handsome

On the stage of planet earth

But backstage is throwing tantrums

Even though that one is ransomed

He's haunted by the phantom

Of the man who's flesh was crucified

But who's yet to be abandoned

Drip, drop, drip, drop

See what my heart say

Fluid

My heart stay

Fluid

Drip, drop, drip, drop

See what my heart say

Fluid

My heart stay

Fluid

Better out than in huh, you sure?

Sometimes the truth is ugly

It's sickly, no cure

Except for liquidation

Imprison thoughts within the page when

They're bound within the lines and then consigned to condemnation

If they don't respect reality

Not the facts of circumstance

But my spiritual normality

A death-resistant seed planted in my personality

A portion of the life that Jesus lives in actuality

Reigning from the throne

Father to the left side

I'm seated with him there in a robe

Washed in peroxide

Inhabiting this soil

That's groaning with a longing

For redemption to unfoil

When the outcome is superlative

Renewal of creation

What we imagine is conservative

But here the pain's affirmative

So I don't deny the facts

But there's a higher that truth that lives in me

Withstands and counteracts

Not writing words, he is the word

So my words I offer back

So my words I offer back

Drip, drop, drip, drop

See what my heart say

Fluid

My heart stay

Fluid

Drip, drop, drip, drop

See what my heart say

Fluid

My heart stay

Fluid
