The Legend of Urban Fridays III

she said

c’mon over to my pad

bring a bottle of red

I have dinner prepared

for a moment he dared not say a word

not quite sure if he was glad

or a little afraid

the Dream dynasty

in the year 2100

he’ll the unify the lands
and lead four billion

he’ll ride a black rhino
carry a diamond spear
and a platinum shield

she’ll not hide her black
no

she’ll not fear
for the life of the child on her back

and her bosom will feed
more
than her womb can bear

and those who forgot
where they came from
will look and stare
wishing to come home

Deal & Die

had you not those ideals

would you still

want it all

 

and if the imagination

which fills you

with what feels and seems so real

didn’t

would you still

give it your all

 

should not what you live by

and that you live through

help you to grow

and even make you immortal

instead of

becoming

that you die for
