Faulted from a recent disposition,
containing what I have in store
stuck at the bottom of observation,
A Single? I just need one or two more,
intense feeling of my Rap expression
falling down further, way down to Hell's core,
I wanna come back up to emotion
pure psycho, Tyco like ya did before,
digging for Gold on evaluation
I love ya but not very much anymore,
cheatin' call my muse "The Execution"
One, two, three, four I see you heretofore,
even though the organized crime heightens,
my trust within you always untightens.

Beneath the darkened shadows I watch them
Hiding behind a tree I observe these
An admirer I want to help mend
My soul encourages, let me help please
I observe the destruction of the plants
Why do they destroy the beautiful Earth?
Cherish everything including the ants
Pollution and corruption hurt it's worth

With respect, I tell you the Earth is dead
All around me the ground is decaying
Times are drawing near where we start to dread
Hope is lost and everybody's praying
Even though tonight we might not wake up,
perhaps tomorrow we might be in luck.

Jean

There is a lonely old woman named Jean.
Though she's forgotten, she's worth more than gold.
She is eighty six beautiful years old,
Yet she's as sassy as all of the teens.
The nursing home staff is grumpy and mean.
She is judged by her age, wrinkles, and folds,
But all she hopes for is someone to hold.
Someone who will love her; love her for Jean.
She struggles with tasks since she's going blind.
Her only treasure is an old beach hat.
She wants a friend- so she sits there and moans.
Once, a young girl decided to be kind.
She and Jean would talk about this and that.
And helped Jean realize she's never alone.

“Act 1: Scene 1”
By Jahzeiah Finney

Guy 1: Hello, friend, how are you doing today?
Guy 2: I am doing fine, how about yourself?
Guy 1: I'm well, heading to shop for a bouquet.
Guy 2: I've got one you can borrow, on my shelf.

Guy 1: Thanks, but do you know what I just realized?
Guy 2: What did you realize? Is it something bad?
Guy 1: Not at all, it just may be a surprise.
Guy 2: Well then what is it? Will it make me sad?

Guy 1: No, it's just, we're speaking in sonnet form.
Guy 2: Oh really? Wow, I didn't even know!
Guy 1: Ha! Well I guess this will become the norm.
Guy 2: Yes! It's fun! Like we're putting on a show!

Guy 1: We can definitely bring this style back!
Guy 2: Yeah! Sophistication is the new black!

-----[Mr. Sispera, I decided to keep it like this because I liked the look of it ^.^]

[Also, I don't know if my last line is confusing, but for those who didn't get it, "sophistication is the new black" is a take on the phrase "pink is the new black."]
