The Hold - Willie the Kid

From where it start

Till the flight depart

The author, the blind archer

Chicks coming out of camisoles

Camel-toes, ten toes I stand

As opposed to surrendering

And suffer on land

Shorty loyal like Camille Cosby

Plant chamomile, calamine lotion

It feel wobbly, turbulence

I deplane then adjust

I’m just contrasting and justifying

Juxtapose, enough posing

My impulse I’m playing possum

Summertime time-pieces

Niggas, sometimey

Watch em, I sip Champagne

And go shopping, Let’s talk shop

Under chandelier’s a mere option

Cop Dodsons, antique from the auction

Cut Cigar caps, double gullotines, Waltzing

I walk the long way home

Honing in on my poems

Humm a couple hymns to myself

Self-worth.

I’m gone.

I can’t condone what these niggas doin'

I can’t complain either

Flights out to Argentina

I’ve seen enough to know enough

When enough is enough

You can’t block my puck

I’m on the cusp with a cup

Stanley.

This ain’t hockey

But I’m ice-cold.

Figure-8's

My Sixteens is quite bold

Behold, the most excellent of word usage

No discussion, only repercussion

I reap the benefits, the lear lean like Robotussin

Over-flustered, fluctuating like a fan-base

The Black Rembrandt

Branch out, sketch a landscape

Rosemary on the lamb shank

You niggas shaky

Shaking hands, throw bands

She dance to Achy Breaky

Broken-hearted artist starving

Out of former union

Unity, you better off

Watch Petunias blooming

It costs more to pretend

Niggas too timid

Intimidating temporary plates

I need motives

Debating never, sipping Jameson

Egyptian bitches, hieroglyphic how I script it

Sculpted in the image of a menace

So menacing, niggas been miniscule

Scan 'em like a scute number

Visioning Aquariums

Jewels I’m wearing 'em

Acquired taste, I’m preaching to the choir

Wired to a higher place

Replaced passion

Complacent, not a inkling

My bitches shimmy in sheer shirts

Binge drinking.

Cashmere Curtains

Earn my money early

Bamboozled on stage

Nigga, show your pearlies

White Remy,

Plenty bitches at my tight and curlys

Best friends, Laverne & Shirley

For sure nigga
