the cage

this is lith
i'm hittin' the pen for the first time
in what seems like ages to me
but the page lets me free
great rappers be like sages to me
great poets are the greatest to me
i got the key to the cage
the cage to my glee
lock me inside
with the rage of the sea
let outsiders be blackened
blotched out
creativity happens
...think i say
and now say i think
i drink today
and today i sink
after the quick rise
and my dick flies, it comes down with a force
no less then the crashing of a horse
shot down in the battlefield rider on top
when your body falls
then your mind, it does drop
passed out in my box
i find no escape
where are all the kins and syringes?
burnin' blunts and roachclips
now and then the dope hits
people havin' coke fits
shit seems hopeless, but that's how i like it
i can see my own future like a psychic
it's cop
drop cash
find more and drop more
cop more 'till the cops roar through your locked door
run out the back
and savor the adrenalin
mixed with mescaline
your world is like peppermint
so fine, nothing wrong, let the good times swirl
blend and mix while you end your fix
'till
your
mind
can't even comprehend, it's sick
i like that life, but in the box it's all gone
and all i do is sing my song

    Alrighty, then! This is different! Where in the cat hair have you been, boy???? Got your mom all in a dither, wonderin' if you were still alive! I can see by this, though, that you're alive, and well! It's good to see that you've posted something; it's been a very long time! I have more than my share of "dry spells," though! (The mark of great poets, no doubt! ) It's great to see you back! We need to talk! Love you much!
