"Gratitude of Past, Appreciation of Present"
by Mr. RTJ
|
I’ve seen a lot since my arrival
I’ve been given such an eyeful
I witnessed the rise and fall into a paradox
I saw the power of people considered as Poetic Prodigies
I watched as founders and pioneers exited
I observed as a new wave of inhabitants that kept this place intact
But most of all
I’ve taken notice of the impact
The Xperience began so great
I could have never fathomed the Theory that led to this fate
It was if an angel or ladysouljah ushered me to this location
This place that placed in the crowd
KT, Kenisha, P3bbl3s and ROXIE to provide a standing ovation
Each occasion when I’d get to release my SpokenLove
Each time as if performing in front of royalty
A *!DymeDuchess!*
A KiNg-GoOB3r
A Lyrical_Princess01
Those that showed such loyalty
A ghettopoetic15
A Tifft that transformed into a *Humbled* PoEtRisT
As humbled as she seems she can’t help but beam at the thought
When her attention is caught on her lusting stick
Because if the pen is her man
Then she’s looking for some good hard B.i.c.
Occasional visits from Mz. Yella
Those left rays of SUNSHYNE on my profile
While ideas would show while I increased my wizdom
Relocated my attention to ny
Became overwhelmed when I found my sweet dreams
My Duchess aka sweet dreams
Her admiration kept me flowing like an energizer bunny
More musical and lyrical as a jazzebunny
But then I lost my touch on reality
I lost my masculinity and became a Disoriented Diva
But my ButhaT enlightened me that it was ok to show emotion
So I continued dispatching myself on the path I had chosen
Whether I fell into my first or Thousandth*Shadow
I’d send out the WearySoule that grows in this body
To: The world
From: Me
Then I’d Sie-Sie (CC) in a few other people
People like my-ty, TS and That Real Nelly
Just so everyone could take the words of my illest_PERSONA and fill their belly
I even remember when a solid lesbian wanted to marry me
The island girl KierraP
She was sexy beautiful and over 22
But that fell through
And for a brief moment I was keen on Mrs. NEEN
Then to Michae-Angele
But again I fell back when it seemed to them I was no fun
OH!
I’ve almost Forgotten1 to mention
She is so raw
She is anti-bad and pro-good
Anti-nonsense and Prohood so that your sensual fantasy is never misunderstood
Only comprehension of her sensuality as it transforms into yours
Her body pours and flows
Like the execution of a Blakk Rose
But never wilts
Even stilts find a hard time reaching such a height
And even if they might
The air up there is a little bit thin and may leave the skin puffy
That’s why I stick to the ground with the realest sounds of Buffy
And don’t forget her sister ya_gurl_lady_k
They just made my day when they came my way
Became a slimcutta chopping up the alphabet scene
During the time they let their comments be seen
And who can forget the heavyweights
S.L.P, Tha Scorpion, DariaAkasha, SylenceThePOET
Appreciation
They showed it by frequent visits from not One but many an associate
And long before she was juztlyn, a title so appropriate
She was a sincere one
A dear one
A real1descreete1
To peak fun and a hope we get to make and rarely come true
Just like when they would come through
Leaving carefully calculated comments
Miss CC-Lady Poetist, Tai Lee and Mz_Ndependent
As in the pen went ideas and out bled ink
That led me to think of Peachess and cream every time I’d sink
Or indulge my teeth in the beauty of woman
Beauties like Cryssy Da Firstlady
Goddesses like Arcane
Those are slain by my word
And I am equally conquered by what I’ve heard
More importantly what I’ve read
The 2DAMNREAL thoughts that expel from each head
They can be as precious as a Babydoll
Explosive as a PhillyQT
Passionate as a DOMINICANPOET
As insightful as a PoeticSoulja
Or even as epic as a GOD_OF_WAR_7
They just take me to heaven at the thought that a sexydiva
May achieve a mental climax with their soultrytongue
Now I’m almost Phinst
I’m sorry
I meant to say finished giving love to all the finest
So I must mention the likes of a Nilla, *Miss Toya*, *Candice* or **MissKiKi** that in my mind swirl
Just holla at your boy if you say HOLLA @ UR GURL
And I can’t forget to tell of the scriptures of ‘Scriptixz
Each depicts CLASSICK concepts of personal ComplexConfessions
Or a creation from an imagination that’ll put you in antiepileptic shock
A good read no matter what time ticks on the Chlok
Excuse this delayed appreciation
I’ve prayed it’s not B3yOnd R3d3MpTiOn
Just had to make room for the new faces like Nino-G while holding spaces of old like (*BOO*)
I didn’t want to leave any exemption
In the beginning I pledged to remain true and since then
After that
I wondered once then I wondered twice
But by my 11th Wonduh
I felt I have upheld that responsibility
A response to humility as I am but a humble man
Cockiness is frowned upon
Well, maybe
Because I finish up by showing all the love to the realest lady
All the love and support in the world goes to shay motherfucking baby

{Author's Note: I'm not going to attempt to act as though this covers everyone I've meet since coming to the site, but I'll be damned if I don't show some kind of appreciation. This is my way of acknowleding as many as possible for making me feel welcomed in the year+ that I've been here. From the beginning (some will never see as they don't come on anymore) to the end. From those that we fell off to those that remained by my side. Thank you for it was each of you that aided in pushing me into the poet I am today.}
