stream of consciousness: cognitive bias

i like to tinker with the tools for your thinking,
food for thought i just chew it up,
no room for fools,

i pick and choose the rules,

and high jinks
lower blows leave a stink
like rows of roses, over those past the brink:
those for whom the pulse of doom got no kink
on stage you flat-line at my nines,
see your life flash like light,
i fight crews, i don't blink,
so glazed are my eyes all the time.
dehydrated,
i'm thirstier than drunkards
drooling back in their drink
but still fire,
bullet-grazed yet on point with the rhyme,
unfazed and amazing,

blaze a joint on this line,
put bluntly:
you couldn't find an axe that could stump me,
you dull B,
my cypher's sick, i'll smoke you like bud trees,
i'm hungry,
your tries to diss are stuck in your guts see,
like shit,
my rhymes will kick you right where them nuts be,
you're rusty,
your ammunition's awfully pointless,
pull a pistol:
bullet blitzkrieg that i hollowed the points in,
standard issue,
empty clips do get switched,
i anoint with,
an ointment of hits
that explode like the shits
and damage tissues.
couldn't fathom how i'll atom split you,
mushroom clouds to move the crowds: 

mind-matter fission.

and wise adage missiles,

the aftermath's official:

after laughter comes the tears,

look: here's a tissue.

stream of consciousness: who's gonna save my soul now?

wrote this on the beat of gnarls barkely's "who's gonna save my soul now?" which had previously escaped my ears. a wicked take from a male dumper's perspective. what you say gnarls? remix with ghostface killah?

we used to be the sun in the sky,
stars shining,
hearts bright and, enlightened,
but harsh nights encroached on,
to spite our warm summers day,
delight just alighted away,
faint approach of the cold upon love,
some will say,
creeps quiet beneath us,
the flesh rendered weakened,
what spirits unwilling won't speak of,
mired in our own latent struggles:
our feet,
tied up in our frustrated hustles:
our hands,
tired instruments,
unplayed by dead minstrels as we,
cry out in a drawn sluggish speech:
i love you...
baby i love you
bitch fuck you,
i love you, but fuck you.
you're selfish i'm selfish, it's ending,
what do we spend all this night's oil to see?
in the valley of our shadow,
some trees?
nothing grows above a barren soil,
these leaves underneath?
but the throes of a love devoid,
of life,
brightest day burned in vain,
to the darkest void of night,
blackest hole swallow fabric,
the space we both needed,
invaded then bleeded,
the contempt we breed, it was fated,
fam- il-i-ar-i-ty
changed things,
from charity to favors,
the vanity enslaved us,
renditions of our love were now labored,
and labelled, conditioned,
serenades became sermons on behavior,
false fables, fuck this shit...
