A
Shattered Youth
The moon shines bright, reflecting of a
still river,
a
young girl stands and looks at the night
sky,
the stars as motionless as a dark
picture,
and while she looks upon a shattered
youth, a shattered mirror,
shows a shattered truth.
She feels like she can stand above
others,
black and white, there are no colors,
she knows her heart is as black as
vampire's fangs,
her eyes pierce the world like daggers,
now red and green, there are more
colors.
Rapping
Bugs Bunny
I
know a rapping Bugs Bunny
who raps and raps till his ears feel
funny,
he's a weird rapping Bugs Bunny,
I
have to admit, if he doesn't rap his
way, he'll throw a BIG fit.
It's funny when he raps, he raps
about
carrots, and it goes a little
something like this:
"Yo,
yo! Beautiful carrots!
I'll never give up up, not even to
the ferret!
And once I'm done rapping my rap,
I'll find my bat, then beat up the
cat!"
If I were fire,
I could hypnotize the weakest of
people,
the light and heat from flames
make some
wonder about my fatal existence.
I destroy homes and forests, I'm
known as a threat,
but if they play with me, they
will regret it!
