A Note for November

looked at a pic
of young me
and saw in my eyes then
the same I see now…

ambition
determination
a wanting to know
a bold flair…

I swear
since I can remember
I’ve been wanting to win
that nothing in the world could be so intimidating
as to deter me from any mission

I swear
God forbid
I ever make enemies
for I’d pull up on them one deep
and sell them peace

truthfully
I just can’t stand a loss
if I can help it
and will avoid at any cost
uncalculated risk
that’s why I pick my stocks
like Eddie Carl of Brown Capital
with thought – not hope
because death is the only odd I can never beat

and if ever there’s a chance
I’m gon take it
and you’ll find me there
in the trenches
deep
toasting to inevitable victory…

puffing on leonotis leonurus
sipping MCC
yet ploughing through
and wading the quagmire
passion lit
soul on fire
never stopping
only at my heart’s desire

earning it
since if not the summit
then I’d rather be six feet under
and take that how you wanna
’cause this is just a note for November
you dig? 😉
