A Simple Fact

He was from the other side of the equator,
I crossed over and became my people's traitor.
Never looked back, didn't even say "See you later."
My luck changed,
I had so much I was dropping change.
Abe was looking up every single time,
Waiting to dazzle that dime.
But I had mine.
He may have been from the other side of the tracks
But now that's where I'm at.

The Other Side Of The Equator

Turns out Chile is further south than I thought.
While it's summer here, it's winter there.
But you know me, always looking on the bright side.
It will be friggen cold,
But the way I see it is me shaving a whole lot less.

HOO RAH!

From Stick to Thick (LOL)

I tried on a new pair of jeans at the store,
Put them on and couldn't move anymore.
I tried on a bigger size,
But they still did not want to comply.
One more size up
and they wouldn't even stay up.

I grabbed a different brand
And realized I needed something that could expand.
I tried on a bigger size
and couldn't even get them past my thighs.
I took them off and stood in front of the mirror,
If only these designers could see my body type clearer.

The J-Lo booty can't be undone,
Thunder thighs are better than none,
Childbearing hips are way more fun,
Size 11 is the new size 1.

My Life As A Wall

The wall is a blank.
You buy paint.
Cover it from floor to ceiling,
But there is no healing.
You buy paint.
A brighter color this time,
but you forgot to prime,
You buy paint.
You prime then paint,
But you still have a complaint.
You buy paint.
You paint.
The wall is once again blank.

Venus Fly Trap

I fly by you snatch me up.
I'm trapped inside with no luck.
Then comes death shortly after,
And that's the end of this short chapter.

To See Or Not To See

Hamlet O Hamlet you bring me so much woe,
Reading your tragedy makes you my new foe.
You ask if you should be or not be,
but if it were up to me,
you would be
no more.

Thought for Food

A day without God would be like an eternity in Hell.

Back To The Future

It's like a blast from the past when I see your face.
It takes me back to the time, date, and place.
When you and I were strangers meeting on that first day
Secretly realizing you were my soul mate, my fate.
And the words played out and the actions made out
We were holding hands like that's what life was all about.
And you looked into my soul and saw what I was
Broken goods and countless flaws.
But that's what I saw, he saw me,
Someone to love endlessly.

Relapse

I put your words in a needle and shoot it up.
I get high real quick like sinner's luck.
I wanted more and more till my heart flat-lined
But I was taken away from sweet death in the nick of time.
But now you're back and so am I.
My needle's ready, now let's get high.

Let's fly.

$$$

I am the wife with hips, he was the high roller with chips.
Poor man lost his fortune now it's chips and dip.
But I still love him because money ain't a thing.
Yeah I adore him even if I'm wearing a 25 cent ring.
Smiles are priceless, gold is lifeless.
But I'm still "Your Highness" sitting on a throne of kindness.
I wear potato sack dresses and hand-me-down shirts
And if I had to do it all again he'd still be my first.
