"An Endangered Species"
  by Cryssy Da Firstlady


I’m sitting at this time trying to understand the complex thoughts

Going on inside the mind of this intriguing man

When I gaze at him it’s like I’m an explorer and

He is the subject being studied.

Observing his body language and every stride in his walk

Unlike the other males in his species,

He roams unaccompanied instead of in a pack.

Although there are many of his kind,

His particular breed is rare,

He’s an endangered species within himself.

I stay my distance to keep from being noticed

For the fact if he detects the surveillance he may flee

Because he fears being captured from his territory in the wild.

If only I could capture this excellent breed of a man.

The Light - Common feat. Erykah Badu

"Thicka tha thicka tha thicka thicka tha tha" lol! Yo, Common is my dude. Okay, on to the subject at hand: your brilliant write! Your choice of word usage was excellent. You drew me in and I felt as if I was on some sort of urban safari. I totally dug this 100 percent. Loved it!

10 STARS! Not only because of the message, but because of the way you portrayed it. You really put thought into this piece. I think the concept you used is... genius. An endangered species... beautiful... (sobs) ...reminds me of myself. -i'm diggin' the song, too-
