Cupid an Psyche

Curse my eyes,
lest I fall in love again,
one mind with Venus,
punishment is due to this unlawful sin,
beauty and poise averted eyes from a goddess,
winged judgment to give your bittersweet lips a kiss,
a task for this messenger unseen,
heaven hear my orison that it will end with me invisible Cupid,
and you Psyche my queen.

The Life of a Candle

I'll just burn for you silently,
a single candle in the wind,
longing to be joined by another,
waiting for this loneliness to end,

but as time passes,
my life grows short,
a flicker,
signalling the arrival of Charon to port,

I'll continue to reach for the heavens,
as I come closer to my grave,
drowning in my tears of wax,
remembering the warmth I once gave.

Sweat

I'm not the best,
but I'm better,
I'll wear my swag like an argyle sweater,
I'm BA,
to a tee,
brought to you by the letter D,
man John Cena can't see me,
exited the dragon,
left it to Bruce Lee,
entered the fists,
twisted the milk duds of Evil Betty,
listenin' to this bebop got me rockin' steady,
bobbin' my head got me a little dizzy gillespie,
I was born ready,
I spit that PK Fire,
got my homerun bat and teddy,
spent all day fighting evil,
don't mind me,
I'm just a little sweaty.
