Controversial Poet

Controversial Poet

By Kazz Falcon

 

My poems brought out the anger in some people

They hated the poems very much

They really despised me a lot

They wanted to scratch my eyes out

They believed I could do such a thing

Murder, drugging, rape, prostitute, and other awful things

I wasn’t that kind of a person

I was a sweet, friendly, nice, loving, peaceful person

I wasn’t a sick person like some people claimed

They wondered if I had any morals

Yes, I had good morals I lived by every day

Writing about something does not mean I did it

Nor I had the desire to do those awful things

I don’t go out and kill people

I had no reason to

Ilet bygones by bygones

They were hostile toward me

I had to expect that

But I won’t back down from them

They way I see it, they don’t like the world we lived in

Death, gangs, murder, war and etc

Therefore, they lashed out at me

Not all poems they will love

That was fine by me

I was portraying REAL LIFE in my poems

They don’t like what they see in the world

Who doesn’t?

There were bad things in the media, movies, TV and real life

Some people praised TV shows and movies for being REAL

Yet, they criticized me for being too real

It wasn’t fair to me at all

I felt like I was Jesus Christ

They crucified me on the cross

Jesus represents the truth, just like me

My truth was the reality we lived in

They can’t complain about my poems

Now, you know what I was really about

I wasn't ashamed of my poems

I had no reason to feel guilty about

I said my peace

I was a somewhat controversial poet
