Master Of Ceremonies


if there’s a master of ceremonies

in poetry

then let it be ME

so I can elevate minds

and arouse emotions

that you thought were hidden

in the darkest places within

and nowhere to be found.

 

I can strike punishment upon

your past and make it eternally bleed.

I curse my enemies to the grave.

Bring them back to life

And teach them how to live and love,

              Only with words!

That’s possible

It’s no lie

my poetry will make you cry!

 

If there’s a master of ceremonies

In the spoken word

Then let it be ME

who brings meaning

to liberation in your life.

Let it be ME

who unchains you from the captivity

of your past

and reveal to you lessons

you were suppose to learn.

Let it be ME

who turns your tears to sunshine

and your cloudy days

to joyous rain drops because

that’s possible with words

            Yes

my poetry will make you cry!

But after those tears

There will be joy.

 

but if there’s a master of ceremonies

In ME

 

then let it be God!
