This will be the last sneak peek at a poem from Must Be Nice 2 before my highly anticipated book of autobiographical and contraversial poetry is released this spring...

I.  Repentant Shark in the Deep Blue Sea

When life gets dull, I do something exciting

I’m Randy moss, I’m not retiring

I express myself with writing

I’m not a star, but I’m aspiring

And I aspire to touch everybody’s lives

I like to make it look easy like juggling knives

Yet we foul up and get cut

A little blood is no reason to get down in a rut

Like a shark, if I stop moving, I’ll die

I don’t wanna die, and you shouldn’t ask why

Sometimes I ask God, why

Why am I surrounded by people living lies

I repent because I’m living in sin

I refuse to let Satan win

I want to reside in the Kingdom of Heaven

I should live better because my mother is a reverend

My tactics are shady, but my motives are pure

Am I the bad guy, I can never be sure

Am I somebody’s hero

Are you talking to me, I’m Robert Deniro

I’m talking to my own reflection in the mirror

I’m a certified psycho, I can’t make myself clearer

You can call me crazy, never lazy

I’m untamed and can’t be contained
