“

… I believe in what human beings have to offer
even though we still live in a world where they off ya
for fun, for what’s in your pockets,
for being an author of truth,
for your slice of the pie,
for being too close,
for being you,

here’s a newsflash to villains out to revoke poetic license
you can take lives
but not the words off the page after my ink dries
after they’re in minds
