    tongue twister

    maybe not really, but some parts have a lot of alliteration, so it seems like a tongue twister...

    I’ve prayed, plenty of promises, and punished the pranksters
    Thinking I am playing - I’m some pathetic pretend gangster
    Looking for answers and another feeling away in a manger
    People be pushing and acting like I’m practically perfect
    What you see about me is shallowly only scraping the surface
    I know that nonsequitur neglect is just making me nervous
    Whatever the weather I will weather whatever no matter what
    Whether my face gets redder or the skies get better but
    I hold these letters in my mind - they tether thus
    Everyone says that I’d be better off if I hadn’t met her
    Don’t sweat her just let her, they say as if they know better
    Many men manage to make it seem like maybe I’m mistaken
    In the middle of my life my mind is locked in mentionable memories taken from me
    Miserable missionary - I guess it’s a mission of mine to be missing my mind
    I’m getting in the grind, should go gear up and divide
    Two separate entities can live deep inside of this lonely mind
    One of complex combinations with correct cognition
    The other of wishes, wallowing, a wreck, submission
    Check the fission, drama bombs dropped atomically
    Ironically irate, inherent in its quality
    Nobody wanted me, at least none of what you saw of me
    I rarely spit intelligent speech but I never meant this to preach
    Playing with fire - I’ll set it to the paper sheets
    I bet its just desire - maybe it’s the tapered beat
    The way that it’s weak
    Has me raging to speak
    Oh just wait for the peak
    If it’s danger you seek
    Than just say it to me
    No way that you’d be
    A soothsayer like me,
    Youth-slayer for free,
    A truth player to see.

    Using alliteration seemed to work in this piece, if it's to be an audio, practicing the verse will help you to pull it off. Had some god vocab in the verse, keep that up. You changed your flow at the end, which stands out in text, but you could make it work in audio. As you continue writing, work on sticking to a topic more closely when you determine it.

    thanks for the feedback guys.

    alpha, thanks for telling the truth as you see it, not everyone likes the same stuff.

    crazycarl, thanks for the great feedback. i was actually saying this to myself when i wrote it. i see (now) that changing the flow seems weird, but, as you said, it's better when spoken. i'll check out your stuff too.
