Greener Grasses                     6/9/04




things are hardly ever what they seem
you always have to dig deeper to reach
the hidden secrets; the truth of the rope
tide into a noose
exposed to toxic vapors or carefully plotted
capers

hardly ever things are what they seem
sometimes dreams defer achievable goals
uncontrolled substances can cause abrupt
eruptions of emotions

so you journey to forbidden lands,
where the tree of knowledge planted it's first root,
before adam was enticed to bite
that fruit that was forbidden;
read a couple of scripted scrolls;
found that all that glitters is not always priceless,
after receiving enlightenment I traveled
back to reality, my hood, my block, my spot;

when i stepped on my grass it dawned on me;

no matter where you rest,
the grass is as green as you make it!
