Autobiographical
I have seen a man rob another man while he was sleeping.
I have existed in a schizophrenic state of self-less and selfish.
Many times I lost hope and felt this was the bottom of my rope.
Took upwards of a decade to learn how to cope.
And in this very moment after all the lessons…
I could still look you in the face and utter an I don't know.
Subway in Queens or camels in Giza. I've seen many walks of life.
So I take a step back and choose not to run.
Most things I’ve done were just for fun.
Laughed it off when asked to justify.
Questions like who and what am I?
I derive from my other eye.
I’m blind but I feel my way out the dark.
It’s a start, Even go as far to call myself smart.
I must find a way to produce my existential art.
