Where do I stand in this living cell of a planet

poor, broke and lonely

Where is my admiration for this world?

How do these other organs affect my world?

I am an ant with genitals bigger than the aardvark?

But still aback by their presents

Why am I destiny for a past forsaken by its future?

An error proven by its self

I use an abacus to figure out the number of deletions

I stand abashed at the ease of desembowelment

Being that I am a hatchet of heritage

Blaspheming the code of respect

Am I the nigger unwontedly

Purposely I used ignorance as a crutch

In my nature… I guess

since I live in and around it

I keep knocking knees on trouble mans floor

Trouble man—come in… let me heal that injury

I have an old remedy

me—just give some artery

Click, click… Me—that stings

Trouble man—My DEEPEST apologies… I was using shocker

me—DAMN! Nigger that hurts unwontedly

Trouble men—that’s how hell begins

me—I just want to pop in and bail

Trouble men—unless you die.. This all you get

me—I am the nigger unwontedly
