"Let It Be..."
  by .Candice.Renee.


Let It Be - Jill Scott



This concept is a giant response to Roxie's poem
& was patched together and written in the spirit of just being a
poet...

Roxie I thank you... this has been one of the most challenging
yet creative writes I feel I have ever done...


Even if
it looks like

words.warped.wrapped.together.circling.selves.
seeming.jumbled.balled.up.like.paper.crumbled.never.breaking.

educated jargon swelling jugulars becoming hard to swallow
food for thought upgraded translations of the English dictionary
overloading brain waves rapidly attacking the boundaries of mental capabilities

or

look like...

...sounds like

reads like...

stop & go flows
letters

c
a
s
c
a
d
i
n
g

down pages causing super scroll modes

\-capturing-/

breaths really relayed
messages playing confused
complexities perplexing people
consistently serving purpose
still questioning conscience

Living through conscious thought

Fulfilling sleepless dreams

Enacting imaginings

As we make fantastic memories

Our lives as a poetic creation

to become

$omethiinq lik3 thii$
$3rv3$iinq th3 @uth0ur$
S3lf qr@tiifiic@tii0n
thr0gh $ymb0l$ @b$tractly
pr3$3ntiinq @ p03t$ iimaqiin@t0n


Translation...
((something like this
serving the author's
self gratification
through symbols abstractly
presenting a poets imagination))

will they

still see

me

BECAUSE YOUR OPINION
THE CURE FOR POOR POETRY
IS A PERFECTLY PENNED PROSE PRESCRIPTION OF ALLITERATION
JUST CUZ I'M NOT INTO SYLLABARY STALKING
I END UP IN UR POETIC COURT CHARGED WITH LYRICAL LITIGATION
THOSE THAT SPEAK ON POEMS IN CONDESCENDING TONES
PLEASE PLEAD THE 5TH AND STAY QUIET
I SCRIBE HOWEVER THE FUCK I WANT
NEVER EXERCISING MY RIGHT 2 REMAIN SILENT


Because...


whatever it is
let it be


let it be
whatever it is


whatever it is
let it

be...

backwards writing
writing backwards

intricately
displaying feelings
diversely written to evoke
emotional responses
re-defining what it is to be
poetry

even when its
spitten'

it still...

making moves to shake you
making moves that break through
allowing pen pros to metaphorically take you
cuz GS demands you read the hottest shit
we marry our supplies
and come up with the hottest topics

sometimes

causing

temperatures to rise
repeatedly upon private sheets
painting pornographic paragraphs
paraphrasing passion
that purrs and plays with-- itself
saturating pages from
swift erect strokes
upon orgasmic oral thought
creating carnal compositions


whatever it is
let it be

let it be
whatever it is

let it

be...

let it

be...

in
spoken
words

philosophical
thoughts

humorous
taunts

hard hitting
reality
loving
hating
causally

e x p a n d i n g

positive and abstract mentalities

Conformed To Structures
Straight Rhyming Like An Emcee
I Live For This Shit

Unconventional
Whether Structured Lines Or Free
Lines Spewed From The Heart

--proving--

whatever your soul needs to say
that your better sense won't let you
for that moment in time
release what your spirit is saying is true
because as poets thats that's what we do

but


whatever it is
let it be


let it be
whatever it is


whatever it is
let it

be...


let it


be...


let
it be....


poetry...

written soulfully.



*Thank you One, Roxie, X, Cat, Mason, Mindi, Holloway, Pro for making this happen :)*

this is a hot write, loving the background pic and the song too..... that why when people ask me who's my favorite poet i cant just say one name because everyone writes different and the different styles are very stimulating to me, and just gives the reader the option to be versatile
