Fighting Fish |
Swimming in a snifter |
Pretty as a picture |
Don’t get it twisted man, her bite is a bitch |
You can name, you can keep her |
But take care when you feed her |
You never can take the fight out the fish |
Chomping at the drill bit |
Never one to still sit |
You can est my metal with a magnet and some tin snips |
Ink test all I see is canines and some wing tips |
Pilot pen in pocket I’m riding instinct and Ink jets |
Around here we don’t like talk of big dreams |
To stand out is a pride, a conceit |
To aim high is to make waves to split seams |
But that’s not what it seems like to me |
Cause I wanna try I wanna risk |
And i don’t wanna walk, rather swing and miss |
I’m not above apologies but I don’t ask permissions |
Got a lot of imperfections but I don’t count my ambition in them |
Zeno’s Arrow never hits the mark |
Its always hanging there over its shadow |
Safe from battle, waste of arch- |
Er’s time and trouble |
Waste of effort, waste of parts |
If you don’t aim for the center its a waste of the art |
I didn’t come looking for love |
I didn’t come to pick a fight |
I didn’t come to wave or take pictures |
Pander to some benefactor, ring on every broken finger |
Won’t extend my wings to be clipped |
I know the culture here is to stay humble but shit |
If we all go round bowed heads, button-lipped |
If never none of us go for the belt who wins |
My mother says I’ve loved too many men |
But I took and left something in every single bed |
Turns his head |
But he night might rise up, investigate the grid |
Gender, genre, guess I’m on one |
Both the constructs |
Women, children let me tell you, I’ve been both |
And Its a myth we all swim for the life boats |
I didn’t come looking for love |
I didn’t come looking for a fight |
I come here every night to work |
And you can pick an ax up, man |
Or you can step aside. |
Self taught, self made, bet, self styled |
Self came |
We march in Con |
Own tools |
My joints hold steady |
Chucks laced ready |
I travel by kite, travel |
Touchdown |
I make my own luck now |
Zeno’s Arrow never hits the mark |
It’s always hanging with its own shadow in the dark |
It’s always hanging with its own shadow in the dark |
