Slummin'

So I

Coast up to the corner store

on my bike

in my sweat pants

Head wrapped up

like Miss Badu

and

Smile

Because I love my bike

and these are my favorite sweat pants

an up under this wrap

is a head that don't stand a chance

but I digressed

Let me get to the point

I know that this morning

I ain't the finest lookin one

In this joint

But I don't care

I'm slummin'

I been looking 

FINE

all this week

I'm bummin'

So I go in

Viewing all the 

(what I suppose to be)

Gentlemen

Sitting around like

Vultures 

waiting for some fresh meat

Don't wait for me

Today

I'm slummin'

So I walk in

with my 

Spirit

hummin'

cause no matter how I look

I feel like

Ice Cream on the hottest day of

July

or 

Bitting into an apple

the one you chose not to put into a pie

But see others

They need to be shown 

that you look as good as you feel

Want my hair weaved up

Fake eyelashes

Everything too tight to chill

But I guess they didn't get the memo

That everything that glitter 

Ain't gold

And that I could make the 

Pre-cum

With my poetic arsenal

They wouldn't take the time to 

Read anyway

So It don't matter what they say

Today

I'm

Slummin'
