upside question exclamation point


Were like grammar 

We take these commas 
Knowing that we should stop. 
Knowing that there should 
Be some punctuality and 
Some corrections because there 
Are a lot 
Of mistakes 
We aren't a free right 
We aren't a play 
But these phrases they aren't the 
Modern day
Of what we all are accustomed to 
See I'm not Langston Hughes 
But I know how it feels to have the blues , 
& if color was a emotion ,
I would settle in search of a potion
To cure & cleanse myself 
Of this temporary parasite
