LETTING THE GENIE OUT

with all those words
for all those birds
‘nd all the herds
enjoyed by
all the nerds,
man’s giant brain
pulls a mighty train
with the natural strain
of pride’s wasteful disdain
So loaded with their versions
and their artificial diversions
eschewing actual emersion
for academic perversion.
Who kneels at yesterday’s rite
In a prayer to speak the spell right
as if wisdom can come from what we write
like Jesus and Mohammed, a worldwright
for what is said about the pen’s might
being greater than the sword’s
is worship of what's written
ignoring what's been litten
with all those words …

You have the making of a great rap track here - MC Vapours and the Trippers.
Great stuff Greg!

Harry Ticket and the Heretics.

P. Diddy backed by P. Floyd
Bad rhyming with universal profundity

I like it, what instrument do you play? Flute, guitar here.
