ok hot shot
believe it or not
i be hear
i face no fear
least of all
your last call

so what do you say
let's play
word games
they all be the same

ok hot shot
what have you got
what's so hot
that i've not
said it before
don't be a bore
come on open a new door

feed it to me
so i can see
what you got
hot shot

let me read
meet my need
feed it to me

give me some words
i heard befors
open some new doors

i still take
for poetrie's sake
the high ground
just the sound
of poetry goin' 'round & 'round

i be the rhthmn
i be given'
by grace
or by mistake
i still take the chance
with this dance

show me your feelin'
your dealin'
your healin's
your realin's
then i'll show you mine

never mind

give me your best shot
hot shot
gimmin' all you got

you show me yours
and i'll show you mine
we'll match the rythmn with the rhyme

so go on
hot shot
show me what you got
rhyme on
rave on
in your mind
that ain't the kin'd
that i remind

you
whatever you do
your poetry
i be better
be true
better than you
'cause that's what i do

show your heart
show that part
you never wanted to show
let us know
don't you know
that's the only way to grow

that's where it be
can't you see
'tween you & me
that be

Mind you, I got a buzz right now, but I couldnt do the whole thing, but what I did read, man, you got to sell that thing to some big name country singer...rather than just singing it to yourself in the shower, or posting it on AD...you got money to be made, lucky dog! I had fun with it too, got a laugh from my interpretation of things...cool write, Peace man', Ed & Rufuz (w00f)

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
