A trilogy from me, you see...my poetry from Mr. V...

Gangsta of Ganja

I'm a gangsta of ganja and I'm packin' my piece
I'm toasty and chillin' and wearin' my fleece
I'll be burnin' some nugs with my family and friends
Cause the vibe here is Irie and the love never ends

So you narcs and you snitches and you DEA types
And you dark hearted meanies and grinches and gripes
You can stop what you're doin', and end your whole scene
Cause the waters of justice will be washing you clean

Our Light, it is Living, and humming with juice
And our spirits are soaring and our Mojo is loose
All inside we are glowing with white light and spirit
If you quiet your mind and your thoughts you can hear it

So Cannabis lovers, faeries and gnomes
Come out of your closets, your shacks and your homes
It's a 4:20 planet with plenty of time
For fightin' for freedom with rhythm and rhyme

Cause a song in one's heart and a nug in one's bowl
Can dig any old hempster out of any old hole
And if Babylon thinks it can stand up to our chants
We'll just kick silly Babylon right in it's pants

And all hempsters and healers and stoners, see here
It is time to awaken, our duty is clear
We must all come together, unite and stand tall
With high pride we'll harmoniously weather it all

There's a spark from the sun and it's catchin' afire
In the hearts of all good people and taking them higher
So be packin' your piece and remember your goal
It's to free all creation and heal every soul

Thou Shall Not Kill

Holy water in my pocket, pants too tight
Hot as a sprocket cause I pray all night
Got nothing in the oven, lookin for a thrill
Lookin for some lovin with an urge to kill

Got a flip-flop flapjack makin me a half-stack
Don't need a tic-tac breathin in the good gak
Don't like the blunt cause it tastes like crap
Filter all your water don't drink from the tap

I got death row Jethro sittin in his cell
Contemplates his navel in the roach motel
I got glass house gangstahs, unmerry prankstahs
Republican president is such a wanker

Everybody's crying when the lights go dim
Mother wife and children all thinkin of him
How can we possibly look into the light
And tell our kids another death makes a death alright

This hypocrite habitat looks pathetic
Death row bros try to look athletic
Innocent people being put to death
Take the blind off of justice cause she might be deaf

Open up your eyes and take a good deep breath
Count the corners on your karma cause you might be next

Path of a Tear

In each teardrop that falls
From an eye on a face
Is a heart full of feeling
Or sadness, or grace

Be it happiness, grief
Or a tear of emotion,
Each drop carves a canyon
And comes from an ocean.

As gravity pulls every tear to the ground
They negotiate cheeks, lips, and chins to get down
The fleeing of travelling tears on one's face
Is a cleansing redemption that's purging someplace

The journey of liquid that flows from the eyes
Holds a heapful of healing of significant size
So surrender to tears as they travel on down
And smile while you're crying or alter your frown

Because the path of a tear
Is a sacred release
And its gift is the feeling
Of healing and peace.

Gotta admit I'm no fan of rap but these are good. You're a rhyme city, more funky than Bo Diddly!

Rap? Never thought of them as rap, but OK.

yeh, I have poems that are more stream of consciousness, but these poems were written to be adapted to melody...hence the more traditional form. It tends to make your poems Hallmark like, but fuck it, it's just art, eh? :)

thanks for the freakback. peace, Viv-
