Goldfish

Gasping and gasping like a goldfish 

Newborn 

Still can't see shit

Day 1 legit 

Surreal is tic 

Raindrops 

Lemons fall from trees in orchards

Jubilee jubilant 

Life is a whole flagrant foul 

I walk the line 

Paces 

Travelling at my own frequency 

Not long ago 

I said goodbye to a whole century 

Time made me so crooked 

I can only look forward 

Toward 

The sun 

No eclipse sus 

In the dark 

But it's all life like the mud

Maybe you're not stuck 

Oh my 

Am I an optimist 

Plot twists and turns 

Sometimes my aura flashes 911

My true colors not faded

Pinhole in my third eye 

All focus 

Pain drips out of the pinhole size 

Painfully slow exodus ...

This rhyme is escalating 

All I got is a knife 

And you looking like a steak now 

All you can eat buffet 

But I done slapped the taste out your mouth!!!
