Knack

my father waited for me to hatch so he could throw me away in the trash I was snatched out of his hands faster than his dik came out of his pants he couldn't understand why he couldn't foil the plan hands down I had the upper hand he gave mama a backhand she was so dizzy she couldn't stand I couldn't stand to watch so I kicked him in the crotch ran away to granny's house she sat me on the plastic couch put butterscotch candy in my mouth this story goes deeper than this I wish I wrote about other things but my inner child has a voice and has to sing not because I'm happy not because I'm free let me rap let me spit some like a submachine gun uncut no smut somewhat corrupt no plans to give up until I've had enough of all the stuff there's danger everywhere even more dangerous if you're living in the bluff I'm just saying I'm not playing my tribe is bricklaying swinging an ax dropping trees on their backs relax take the load off your backs before you collapse those who don't understand don't clap stand back while I fill in the gaps peel back some caps have a snack take a nap I'll be done in a snap

I love when I can read a poem and see the imagery in my head. I swear everybody grandma had that plastic couch and that butterscotch. Awesome.
