Written Word Wednesday: On My Droid

By: Mista GoodKat

Fist clinched
thumbs tap dance across Motorola screens
texting nothings to nobodies
i guess i’m talking to me
hope comes from constant belief
one stroke of genius
On digital sheets
positions me
above mediocrity
writing a Hip Hop Odyssey
of pure unadulterated poetry
exploring the leaps
of those before me
studying the verbal orgies
displayed on early mornings
after late night
open mic
sessions
street light fluorescence
provides illumination
for our free will to express our expression
of peace and aggression
our goals and transgressions
our failed test and greatest lessons
and everything is at my fingertips
one thought away from entering in
info into intangible infrastructures
invented invertly inside artificial intelligence
only to hold the details of my intellect
and occasionally surf the internet
and having brief conversations with relatives

Spoken Word Wednesday: Creative Insanity

By: DAM!unique

Engaged into the pathways of extraordinary behaviors
Major league favors pass over the neighbors
only to rumble on these global media players
while
banking cartels are giving out all the orders
murders pile up on international boarders
Nickles sold for dimes
Dimes sold for quarters
The rich get enrichment
the poor get more disorders
prescribed prescriptions
knowing that they can’t afford’em
no wonder there are long lines
for super size fries
and a microwave life
millions sold on instant gratification
never putting in the time
for preparation
The top percent of the generation are some close friends of mine
the wisdom we get
expands over many lifetimes
the question that goes through our mind
is Why?
won’t don’t they get it
the information free
why haven’t they read it
A case of mental sickness
can’t even call the paramedics
My mentor told me “Don’t sign up for that class”
Paraphrasing: Homey don’t sweat it
So I’m
Courageously holding on to my blessing
From the everyday pourings
Hands
wide open
Mind
forever exploring
Eager to thank my source of joy
every single morning
While
piercing sunshine adapts to the shadowed room
Body
Fresh!
Mind
feeling moments out of the womb
Eyes still consumed with imagines
of
recent dreams
laughter comes over me
divorcing me
from any notions
of
Negativity
Relax
Calm
on another one
Cruising by on Cloud 9
packing my glass bong
Energized
Energizing the culture for fun
Casing the next joint to extract the funds
Capitalistic transactions
Monetizing the traffic
that comes
Giving away value up front
to reap on the back in
but I never got pass
this lofty introduction
Hypnotized by the break beat percussion
the topic of this poem is up for discussion
Any questions???
while I sift through the wreckage
of the predictability
of my
Creative Insanity

Late Night Passions

Written By: Mista Goodkat

Either I am crazy
or there is someone
somewhere
in some state
of some perception
second guessing
their
late night passions
masking
the hidden cravings
staging
a psuedo masterpiece
on landscapes
of deception
closing their minds
to the possibilities
of their true potential
Let me remind you
a huge percentage
are still damaged
from the question unanswered
Anger
covered by their laughter
moving on alone
in a day un-mastered
wishing for things to go
faster
but time finds no rest
And we seem to settle for less of it
wasting it
like fifteen more to kill
seconds spill
out of the minute
once the bullets of neglect
hit it
punctures it
Wondering if
Wondering gets
me anywhere closer to my
late night passion

What is an idea lacking action??
A
Seed of procrastination
A
Pass for waiting
for the next station
but where do we
get off????
Deciding tomorrow is the
jump off
we got it mixed up like
rice pilaf
Life’s a big
sea-saw….
without understanding leverage you will
be lost
and with every wind that blows
you will
be tossed
and who’s fault
is that???
If you look in the mirror
and the answer is clear
There’s no one else here
to steer…

You… to… your… late… night… passions

My Opinions

DAM! Unique aka GoodKat

Written By: Mista GoodKat

Some of these words come from within
but some these words fall from a infinite amount space and matter
Surpassing all telecommunication patterns
Of chatter that advertises to the masses
While little Judy is up in classes

Mr. Mike Murdock is counting up his assets

The American economy clasps
Meltdown in the housing bracket
Bailouts to the Bastards that drafted it
Now mom is worry about her grandkids
Hoping change will come with a black president
In my opinion the election is irrelevant
If most of this stems from the lack of financial intelligence

To better understand myself
I look at the cards I was dealt
Picturing a swift victory
But realizing three cards I did not need
Particularly these
The ones I want
I guess that the way life is huh?
Making sacrifices to gain greater advantage
Planting seeds in the garden to grow annual cabbage
To live far beyond just managing
Or to just get by
Looking at my life in a different light for my own good
To be a living example for my old hood
You have to walk it to talk it
You have to been through it to prove it
But first things first I must just do it
I have thought about this more times than I should
But I seems to all good
Because before building a city you must first tear down the woods
