NOT UPSIDE ONLY
Life
isn't
upside only
It's
upside
down
rollercoaster ride
a night on the town
eggs over easy
don't take it hard
rock and roll nights
a house of cards
Life
isn't
upside only
There's
upside
down
scrambled and addled
the run of the town
then run out of town
running on empty
topsy and turvy
had it up to here
waiting
for the air to clear
once over easy
hard as a stone
heart of stone
heart of gold
heartless
hardhearted
foolhardy
lucky in love
rollercoaster ride
night on the town
Not
downside
only
Also
downside
down
Mmmmmm
Life
isn't
downside only
It's
upside
up
downside
down
But who knows what's up
And what's upside down?

A dozen
years ago,
I began to wake up
with word pieces -
words music, spoken word, songs -
in my head.
Escape velocity.
Echo of the echo.
Tank almost empty.
Can't cross the gap.
Welcome into my world.
POEMS ABOUT LIFE -
RAP RAPPING SPOKEN WORD
LIFE POEMS
Poems about life
could be poems about strife
could be odes
could be verses
It could be life at its worst
Poems about life,
life poems, life poetry?
A life poem could start,
life is not a poem.
But this poem about life,
poem on life,
lively rapping words,
starts ...
Life isn't upside only.
Because it isn't.
