A better man - Original Poem

in #poetry • 8 years ago (edited)


I'm not the man
who fell to earth
I broke my wings
and landed exactly
where I wanted
I lived art
to understand life
I wrote lyrics
in search of consciousness
I was ghetto and futuristic
Found a geek eye
to temper the artist
Found Brooklyn
on my way to evolution
Weighed the city
and balanced my soul
In the audacity
to be a better man
