[hometext] => A poem inspired by an artist named Nas
[bodytext] => All I can taste is the summer breeze And my raspberry iced tea Brooklyn bridge looking at the night sea The illusion of stars that shine brightly But it's just the reflection of light off the water If I treat it like a fountain, drop in a quarter... ...Could I make a wish? The mind grows when you're outside your comfort zone The rest of the world's a scary place cuz it ain't home When your mother's arms are all you know How can you expect to not be scared wherever you go But then you get older Become more mature Ready to see it all Places you ain't been before But only this time You gotta walk alone Without your mother's arms Only your own But I basically grew up that way Been a motherless child from an early age So why am I still hesitant to solely take the stage Why am I less ambitious, because I'm more afraid But things have changed I can no longer wait Dire times placed me in a different mind state Gotta get my own Gotta find my way Gotta leave my comfort zone, I can't Stay... Brooklyn is home to this poet But it's not really where he's from, it's where he's going Truth be told, half the hood don't even know him I got flows now, y'all ain't even know it But I'm not just another artist Far from typical Not a replica of heart but original Pure soul I give to you, flaws & all Damaged by my insecurities, my scars are raw Patience is a virtue But time is of the essence If endurance is a curse Resilience is a blessing Staying strong and bouncing back ain't an easy task People who claim to care never bothered to even ask Glory has yet to come I only talk of shame And add these sideline stories to my walk of fame It shall extend beyond my death to future days My world, Macadon welcomes you to Stay.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
