“Untitled”

i think there for i am

existence proof is the myth, or man

my thoughts on paper self portrait and

an illustrated narrative my pen to the pad

man i could have been a painter

except my color pallette has been a little tainted

…i could have been a painter

except my color pallette has been a little tainted

years of media sex and violence

i know its cliche but i got passed my eye lids

i did everything i could to see good

cant help but feel darkness

when peering out a hood.

the pictures skewed

and lifes a little rude

just wanna disobey like the taming of the shrew

your shoes get worn up

hoodie all torn up

but you still comb ya hair cause thats the way that you were brought up

ya head still nod up proof of that autumn

ya life was saved by lupe superstardum

hip hop

-jimmy nimbus

“I wrote this poem after trying to figure out how to live hip hop but not indulge in that kind of lifestyle. Sure, a lot of that stuff is fun. but it is not good for a healthy long life. So many of us are trying to life so fast and not worry about the future.  When I found Lupe Fiasco and did a bit of research on him I realized that not all rapper lifestyles have to be about sex, drugs, and rock and roll. It’s just about lyricism and doing it every day.  This poem is an ode to Lupe.”
