    Man in the moon

    I like feeling the rain, fall between my blistered toes
    as I twist the dro, and the strengthening blizard blows
    hitting foes with spells, that only a wizard knows.
    I'm no wizard though, and these nights are getting slow
    the moon above pierces my eyes, smirking from it's crib
    dude on the moon has no sun, so we on earth are called his kids
    that's all it is, an illegitimate relationship, between strangers
    he comes to visit us at night, from his esteemed manger
    and leaves us to see danger...
    ...but I'm a street ranger

    What's the reason, for me being a son of a bitch?
    and getting kicked in to a home, with hundreds of kids
    I struggled to fit, they didn't understand how my brain works
    that day hurt, but they searched, for ways to make my pain worse
    torturing me, until I'd fall on the floor, and I'd bleed
    but I WANTED to go....they didn't fucking force me to leave
    the streets are watching...each corner has a set of eyes
    sticking to your every move, like it was televised
    the streets are posessed, by heart beats of the dead
    reverberating, no priests, drugs are preaching instead
    crack is the bishop, the messanger sent from above
    and MJ is to show, that he sends you his love
    addicts, come together every night and praise this lord
    with a sacrifice (any drugs left over from the day before).
    but that was life, and I was comfortable, I knew the rules
    and what they do to fools.

    I stare above, whispering sins, in to the blistering winds
    and kissing this doll, that's riddled with pins
    one lock of hair...'in life.....there's nothing fair'
    ...any other moment really can not compare
    'Night Mommy' I say, placing the doll on the desk
    before stabbing the body, fucking mauling the vest
    'IT'S ALL FOR THE BEST!' I scream as my face burns
    fire in my eyes, as my evilness, tries to replace hers
    why only me? how was I different than the other kids?
    why didn't I get any of the love, they had been smothered with?
    What's the reason? what have I done to deserve this
    nobodies perfect...but am I really that worthless?
    'the earth is a game...you gotta find your way, son'
    but how can I do that, when I've been blind from day one?
    my only love is the street, in the corners I can sit and cry
    tears are the ONLY thing in life...I'll never have to kiss goodbye

    I'm alone, nobody knows or cares if i'm even alive
    but it doesn't eat me inside, or deprive me of
    a piece of my pride...I make up my mind, reach to the side
    and snatch EVERY mother fucking piece of the pie
    Let's face it, there are benefits to being a street rat
    it aint all bad...just try not to be clapped
    and it can teach that, life is there to be lived, alone
    on your own, others just make it split in zones
    but, I can still laugh, because I'm doing my thing, you see?
    but I'll always hate my mommy...for the pain
    she TRIED to bring to me...

    So daddy, I know you're only the man in the moon
    and you'll be dead again soon...
    But it's ok, I'm no longer angry, fuck my sorry plight
    I'm a man, I live alone....
    ....see you tomorrow night.

    Re: Man in the moon

    Whoa!!!!damn this was deep..I felt like my brain fell into quick sand because the story was so deep....and this really had me at the first line... like feeling the rain, fall between my blistered toes
    as I twist the dro, and the strengthening blizard blows
    ...This was a great drop and the structure made it strong and the multies was all together and fit like braces on bad teeth...lol but keep it up!!!!!!!!!

    Re: Man in the moon

    LOL @ knowing those 2 didn't read it.

    Witty! How are you? I am good, thanks so much for asking. Anyways man, this was so you. The style you chose to portray fits your wording very well. I can't even remember the last time you wrote something this well. Probably that piece about the solider in the snow or some shit like that, a while back though. Anyways, i really enjoyed this. The wording like i said was on, but I really liked the storyline to be honest, pretty nifty way of presenting the idea. Dope there. Emotion was not too heavy, but had a big enough presence to still hit you up a bit in most areas. I really liked the blunt ending rather it's inteneded to be funny or not, it was. Really laughed when I read it. Overall, this is one of those things where it seems kind;ve random, but it came through for you, I enjoyed it myself, so thank you. Keep writing and hit up this for me.

    This was an excellent piece, now compared to your past
    writing, this was better, not saying that your past writing
    was bad, actually it was still very good, but reading this
    i can see that you have elevated more, the emotion
    was very good, on point throughout the whole story
    and the imagery, dope, plain and simple just dope
    your vocab in this piece was amazing too, as was your
    wordplay and flow, i was just really feeling this piece
    keep writing man, looking forward to seeing some more of your work.
