My particles are scattered all over the ceiling


Hot, dank, and gnarsty
run and tell that daddy
not a happy world for you and me 
lunch meat skanky
shaky beat-wise
he breathes in ironic juxtaposition,
so-called rap heroes,
more games than the NBA 
does he gate with less-than-girls
online obnoxious who
piss the same color as Logic.

Welcome to hotel basic bitch in the briefcase: your soul, the responsibility sold off, and heavy on my mind did often days wispy in our rightless digits seep through like Hennessy by a weak metabolism...
But do you want to save me? Save me from my stubbornness? From myself and my intellect? Look at you, painter of better narratives! Believer in what medication says: you want to get away with anything, defended defenseless, not unlike what I like to see with those hospital control saudade types.
You know who I'm talking about. Shallow, derisive, yet unequal parts fuck fantasy ready; rope and milk, long socks, too personal in public... And especially now I'm jealous I'm more stubborn and Freudian like you than ever before stigmatized but now, more or less, relieved.
