Slam Stick

Slam Stick

it's in you -
syllables of fire
to spew with feel.
this is your cue -
breakout from behind the 8 ball.
practice, practice and practice
until you've become a shark,
like a hustler on a street corner -
style depends on it.
like a master, be a smoothie -
this is your voice
of emotion that can sway.
make them succumb
and they'll take notice.
remember this is your cue,
and if you have to -
break it into two
and hold each in both hands,
because fucking splintered ends...
do open eyes wide
when you show them
that you don't take no bullshit.
