A poem about growing up

I found this in my notebook, don't know when I wrote, prolly the beginning of the quarter...
but along with my last post I think it's rather appropriate...

Enjoys :-)
-------

Growing up, it's no joke 
I remember when I was young 
I thought it would be dope 
to live on your own, no parental control, 
but I realized growing up means being bold
stepping out on your own, facing the unknown, 
Trusting in only yourself and God for strength, preseverance and pursuit. 
Now yeah living on my own may be cool, but is nothing like those days of school. 
When worries where far away and responsibilities were days, miles, centuries away. 
I envy the young, so naive, and unnoticing of all stress and worth forthcoming
But then I just realized my time has passed, no fun left anymore for me. 
I gotta grow up, I gotta live, and somehow still be free. 
I can do it though, even when it may hurt, even when I may be in pain. 
I can grow up, Move on without much strain. 
so I take a deep breath, exhale slowly, jump on to my next journey.

hello World

this is ya boy,
the one that brings ya joy
when ya all shy and coy,
sippin on a sauce called soy

lately i've been feeling like rhymin
ya know that slick poetry
and since school had me overtimin
time just wasn't free

but at home in my comfy bed
chillin at half an hour to midnight
i thought i would break off some creative bread
and to the world i'd write

somethin real kool
somethin that would make ya drool
somethin that have ya lookin like a fool
sans pants on the ground, i'm not that cruel

so i hope you listen, I hope you like
so I hope I to inspire, make ya fly like mike
with my simple words, spitting from my lips
dripping down my arms to my fingertips

see, sometimes I try to see but I'm blind
and sometimes I try to speak but I'm a mime
and sometimes I try to touch but I can't reach
and sometimes I try to taste but there's no peach-

PIE that jilll made, so all i can do
is listen with my ears of two
and trust, hold on like glue,
when actually I have no clue.

Like I don't know how to play that game,
Literally I've never played clue,
and as long as things remain the same,
I'll focus on hitting the cue

Wherever that strike leads,
hopefully in the corner pocket,
unlocking the door of the freed,
releasing the sky-bound rocket

Of my maturity, my insecurity,
my nature, my legislature,
my sobriety, my entirety,
my debaters, my creators

and yes, I ask who's talking?
Who's the one in charge?
Who's the boss, the one pimp-walking?
Who is the man at large?

Who's the one swiping the credit card?
Who's the one scooping up the pig lard?
Who's the one that said it was hard?
Who jumped that extra yard?

Questions, so many unanswered.
It's actually kinda awkward
Down right absurd
I'm a little perturbed

Because, I'm an  the Afroboiii,
the number one, not number three,
and if you knew alot things
you would know about me.

But ya don't, so your dog has fleas
and please take him of the leash.
Try to give him some carrots and peas
and maybe some

Get's No Love from Me.

Wow, blog!
you get's not love from me.
i've been spending time with other blogs
watching movies, youtube, and glee
but blog you get no love from me.

I remember when  I first began you
I had so much to say
I wanted to let the world know everything
sometimes I posted three times a day

But as time went on
and homework, school began
i had other things to do
writing a post in the plan

I think it's alright though
cuz you've always been very patient
waiting for me to hit publish
hoping my desire to post was just latent

But as you can see
I  never forget to come visit
and every once and a while
 I'll bring you something in exquisite.

Like a poem (ohh)
or more youtube videos
or something just really random
you seem to really love those

but as I close these feeble lines,
stay warm, like you're in a winter fleece
until the next time I have time
PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!

Old Poem/Writings

So after doing accomplishing somethings on my list which currently hangs on my desk ( fixing my resume, editing my placement essay, starting and reading breakthrough collaborative application/process, working on the NCE Website), I remembered I brought this collection of old poem/writing/sketches/drawing from home. There are like mostly from high school but some go back to '04 (oh wait that's when I started high school) so they're all like occurred in high school.

Let's just say some of my drawing was really incredible (should be above this one), but one thing that disappointed me was my poems-writings, like most started off good but then went bad, like real bad. some were like really extreme, like I hated a person, (I wrote the words I hate you). which I don't remember why i felt that way, but I was really scary while reading it.

But anyways I decided to post some of my favorite good poem-writings this here blog. I did have to fix some of them, like I can guess what I wanted to say, but it's not exactly what I wrote, I guess I'll put those in [].
Also if ya can, read these aloud, I think it helps.
----------------------------------------------
1.
my time has expired
the clock has stopped
there is no more sound of the "tick-tock"

the sun has went down
and will never rise again
flowers [have] die[d] and ferociously [been] blown by the wind

heart beats are gone
pulses are no more
the blood [has] stop flowing; life is a bore

the earth has stop rotating
and everything stands dead-still
yet, my glass is half-filled
through it all.

-----------------------------------------
2.
I am
what I be
and forever I'll be that
I'll always be the I
that sometimes changes
to u but u don't define
me, or I for that matter.
'cause I am
whatever I want to be
and that will never change
I'll always be me when
u and them sometimes say
no to I, or me for that matter
I'm here to show I'm
forever eternally, always
the person I am which is me.

-------------------------------------

3.

I wonder and think
everyday: What if the sky was pink?
or What if people were small?
like ants. And the ants would be tall.
Would the [world] change as we know it?
Or would humans be the same ?
There's no way I could possibly get,
Get [an] answer for this game
Cuz I think I'm way too lame.
I think my parents r the ones to blame.

---------------------------------------

4. 

I'm cool
Ur cool
We're cool
Isn't that cool?
Or is that not cool enough?
Am I cool enough?
R u cool enough?
Is that enough?
Enough for this poem?
Is this the end of [the] poem?
or just the beginning of the poem?
Ok, no more poem.
B-cuz I'm cool.
Ur cool
We're cool
Isn't that cool?
Isn't it..........

------------------------------------

5.

If today is new and
yesterday is old. And if today
is a continuation of yesterday
is today really new?
so wouldn't we call it
just a day?
-Words of Wisdom from a Wise person

----------------------------------------

6.

Three-hundred sixty-five days times nineteen years equals six thousand eight-hundred fifty-five days that I have wondered and journey[ed] to become me, but only in the last ninety-one days [have I] lost it and [now I am] searching again, and [I] just can't seem to tap back into the way I felt, the [way] I was. But now as a new three-hundred and sixty-five days approach, labelled as two-thousand and eight, I will continue to search until me is found and I can start whole again: One hundred percent; three-hundred sixty degrees, two-pi radians. Hopefully one day.

Oh 6 favorites, Lucky number 6.
that's it.

Whoa! This my 200th post

of it I will make the most
by writing it in the form of a poem
with rhyming and timing sturdy as foam
I would call it the greatest you've ever seen
but that's ridiculuous and obscene.
so just continue to read in wonder,
the flow will hit you like thunder,
rattling the windows of your mind,
so you'll know this blog is one of  a kind.

200 posts in about 1 year!,
yes the blog's anniversary is near,
who would have known or even guessed,
at it's inception, in the midst of a world of mess,
coming through so clear in a sea junk,
would be the words of an afroboiii, not a punk.
Posting so many random pictures and videos,
or just general rants about spoiled milk and Cheerios,
from topics about music, movies, current events,
to NU related things, sports, and spontaneous irrelevance,
I have provided my individual view
as an Afroboiii solid and true.
It's been cool and fun,
and I'm up for another year's run
whether no one ever shall read
these words, I won't plead,
nor beg because this blog in the end is all for me
but I don't mind allowing others to see
that through it all at least,
there's no overbearing scary beast,
but just a dinner, no a feast,
serving out a big plate of

PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!!!!

Once Upon a time...

there was this guy named Adrian
who had this blog
and he really didn't know what to update about....
and he really didn't want to update...
but he rather update this do his homework
because he was a procrasintator and also very lazy
he'd rather think about doing homework
than actually doing it
because that would take too much work
but as he began to type
thoughts came to his mind about what he could update about
and this is what he wrote:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

The Cleveland Show
the-cleveland-show1.jpeg (600×384)
it just watched the pilot episode.
it was okay, closer to being on the side of  really terrible.
It wasn't really funny, not really like family guy...
but I give it some slack since it was the pilot episode...
I'll probably watch one more then if it's still terrible I won't care anymore...

but ya know you just don't see cartoons with many black people in it (like most tv shows)
so I have to give it a try.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Classes.....

Suck ass! a literally they are a pain in the butt (like they give me hemorrhoids). I just wish they were over, but the funny thing is....that it is only week 2 (hahahaha). I mean for one, I don't want to wake up and listen to you talk to me about whatever the hell you be talkin' bout ( I mean I don't be listenin). And for B, I don't want to do homework or read anything. Really I don't want to do anything but chill. But that's not possible so I'm just gonna complain about it until it's all over (that means never..)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That's it,
I guess I'm off to do homework (or at least think about doing it).
Until then,

PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!!

soooooooo

i'm gonna make this a random post....
i mean i don't like to boast..
because sometimes i just let the words flow
like the coffee out of a spilled cup of joe, u kno?!
it's like a natural feeling deep inside me
compelled to break the chains and become free
the spirit of rhyming, words in timing,
(u kno i ain't lying)
pours from the reservoir of my heart
and the magic, that is words, starts
now i'm no expert poem-master
just a young man trying to stop my boredom from long lasting(er)
don't worry if you thought that this would be long
'cause this is the end of my song
thanks for reading my rhyming on&on
now like the contents of a Kool-Aid pitcher
i provide some color in the form of a random picture..


How to breakdance






alrighty then...........

a REAL poem..

so wrote this late the another night...
don't do this often, I believe it had to be inspiration
from the muses or something
check it out
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Reality---
I cannot see,
Through the wall that stands in front of me.
the memories that so penetrate my mind
each and every time I think of reality:
what is real, what real ain't.
what I see is just a fake,
copy, image duplicated
but not replicated,
highly dictated reality imitated.
spacious glow surrounds my view
intuitively, I always knew
that reality was past due
my reality was untrue.
deeply rooted thoughts
bounded by penniless costs
often seamlessly lost
are often bought
in reality.

reality--- I cannot see
the reality which lies in front of me
blocked by the world of eternity,
will forever be,
an unreal, unfulfilled miserable fantasy
unparalleled in all despair unknown
unupheld in dignity alone
so unreal, so unconcealed,
yet so hard to view
so touched, so loved,
yet hated so
yes, this is reality
the reality you so seek,
but you shall not find
the reality you so plead,
but you shall bind
yourself forever in your unreality
because that is the only reality you see.
And that reality is me.

SCHOOL BACK IN SESSION.....

:( :( :( [and plenty more sad faces]......
my winter break concluded
i journey back to Evanston
preparing myself to be diluted
by the world of academia and education

happy to see friends so dear
but i wish the quarter wasn't so near
nevertheless looking forward to the joy and pains
and hopefully i'll learn something and stuff won't be so lame

just to let you know i didn't intend on writing this post in rhyme
but that's what's needed sometimes
and hopefully i won't do this often cuz this is hard to say the least...
to end my pain and misery...PEACE & CHICKEN GREASE!!
