So What Do You Want me To Write About?

 

So what do you want me to write about?

What are you wanting to hear?

They say I should write for myself

But for once, what would YOU like appear?

 

You know I use rhyme as my carrier

Of messages both humorous and sad

I use it to transport these messages

And apply it to whatever can be had

 

I can rhyme about war and 'bout killing

The pain, senseless waste and it's strife

About innocent boys forced as pawns in

General-played games for their life

 

I note that war/killing attracts comments

My assumption? Is this what you need?

Black, macabre and also bloody

Rhyme belonging to a dark breed?

 

At the opposite end of the spectrum

I can rhyme about things that are great

Things maybe offbeat, but with humour

Things that you maybe won't hate

 

So what do you want me to write about?....
