    Metaphorical Poetics

    it goes and comes around.. but how long in between?
    and if i dont see it happen well.. how strong can it be?
    i heard a voice quick as it came it was gone in the breeze
    it said to steady my feet wide and be strong in the knee's
    i'd wrongfully see.. this wasnt literal.. indeed a metafor
    that these lonely halls we walk.. lead to better doors
    the place you teleport.. rid of dead ends & never more's
    even when the weather pours head up and let'r roar
    no more dead at war.. a lost cause for settled scores
    'least there was honor in 1 on 1 draws with metal swords
    with that said of course.. today innocence is crushed
    but now its too late to rebuild.. and in a sense its sucks
    the mystery of life.. on earth.. the skin on its back is..
    the energy of the universe.. that makes it spin on its axis
    the big bang.. dawn of time.. the whole thing is stupid
    time exists without existance.. theres no beginning to it
    in a rythmic pulse of music.. what numbers couldnt equal?
    through cause & effect.. up & down or.. good & evil
    breathe a breath to the ocean.. blessed perpetual motion
    of sexual notions.. bonds in life.. until death for eloping
    these moments.. lost living lies but.. we all live and die
    question is..
    did you give a try.. cross plains with pride risen high
    or did you let your image fry.. memorys of a finished eye
    minutes fly...... til we birth wings under a different sky

    This was pretty dope. alot of metas, and the flow, like always, was sharp. My favorite part was...

    It's writing like this that proves that rap isn't just bullshit about smacking hoes and smoking grass. You proved a broad knowledge of the english language and the world that surrounds you... I have respect for what you've done with this piece. It has a way of making us seem as if you have all of the answers... and whether one does or not, presenting it and making his listeners/readers believe is what counts... the fact that you can get us into it and make us read past the rhymes.. awesome

    Definately nice... Good flow...Nice story...Nice vocabulary... I liked it. Only thing I can really say is maybe make it a little longer and give yourself a chance to express yourself a little more! Oh and nice metaphors of course.

    Sorry there wasn't much more for me to say.

    If you could check out "You" in my sig I'd appreciate it.

    Peace

    alot better then the last piece i peeped you are improving and elivating non stop i like your work
    to love something,is to die for it ,if you do, your a martyr , but these days music is morbid, false carters ..prohet's for prophet no lie, look how our last martyr was crucified. to put it in it symplicity, you aint true...you wouldnt sacrifice a few dollars for authenticity..

    This was a very well constructed piece and as JaakDaPhake said man you broadened horizons just hope people get the meanings of OTHER shit that rap entails e.g. creativity, originality etc....

    A very nice flowed worked well wih the vocab you used

    nice work

    yes very good piece it really made me think a lot. i like the speed of this read. fairly consistent but you switched it up in a few parts and that kinda threw me. i like the vocab. unique enough to make it your own and simple enough to get your point across without confusing the reader. word choice was good. and the idea was dope. i would have liked for this to have been just a little bit longer. but i cant complain becuase i liked it a lot. good piece and as my good buddy word mentioned much better then the last couple i read.

    Dope Wordplay, Dope Imagery and dope metas in my opinion.

    Good read all around, with some good ass imagery, like in the beginning, where i thought it was the strongest. Good read with good wordplay, vocab was on, and the topic was controlled on throughout the read.

    Good Job.
