OPEN MIC MONDAY – DROWNING IN SORROW | #OPENMIC

Posted on February 1, 2016February 1, 2016 by Jixi Fox

drowning_in_sorrow by_lightcolorsart

 

Drowning in sorrow,
Waiting for tomorrow,
To come,
The pain,
Makes me go hard,
A lot of obstacles,
To overcome,
Bummed out,
I got no real friends,
No more parties in LA
Or NYC,
I still at home and play,
My album,
These beats,
Jotting down,
My life story,
Waiting for the day,
I am allowed to speak.

FASHIONABLY LATE | #TANKA

Posted on January 31, 2016January 31, 2016 by Jixi Fox

fashionably late

Scheduled to be there now,
But of course I am not there,
So I guess I’m late,
Showed up torn up a hot mess,
Tried so hard to make it, failed.

Woke up cool chef-ing,
Swore I had a sword, weapon,

Okay you played yourself, they,
They do not want us to win,

FREE VERSE FRIDAY – SHARP CORNERS | #FREEVERSE

Posted on January 29, 2016January 29, 2016 by Jixi Fox

FREE VERSE FRIDAY

razor-blades

Watch out I am coming through,
Days blue,
Ain’t got no cool,
Rules broken,
Fluff packed away,
Running through the maze,
Making it through without a fade,
Don’t need the assist,
For I got the gift,
I strong-arm my demons,
The nemesis,
Aka the craziest.

Did you enjoy the verse of the day?

SPOKEN WORD THURSDAY – LIQUOR FOR THE WEEKEND | #SPOKENWORD

Posted on January 28, 2016January 28, 2016 by Jixi Fox

Young drunk man sleeping in the bar

The weekend can’t come fast enough,
Life is rough,
I am dying for a break,
But money still needs to be made,
Life is tough,
I want to drown my woes in liquor,
Spill the beans,
Like a soap opera episode,
I have dramatic plots and schemes,
My look is mean,
Don’t you say nothing to me boy,
If you try to send shades at me,
Oh no that will miss me,
Straight out-of-bounds,
I just want to forget,
Leave the past week behind,
I am falling asleep,
Drank too much,
I can’t stay up,
Man down.

#SpokenWordThursday [the series] <- Start Here….

POETIC ART WEDNESDAY – MUSICAL KEYS | #ART

Posted on January 27, 2016January 27, 2016 by Jixi Fox

colorful-piano-art

I tip toed into the room,
And noticed music floating,
Filling every corner,
It took my breath away,
I was almost a goner,
Each note beautiful,
Every vocal cord hits,
I felt everything,
I couldn’t help but move my feet,
Rock my hips,
Grab the closest person,
And get down to this,
Musical waves.

OPEN MIC MONDAY – BEFORE I DIE | #OPENMIC

Posted on January 25, 2016January 25, 2016 by Jixi Fox

before I die

Before I die,
I want to know I tried,
Tried to live,
Read off my goals like a bucket list,
Not trying to miss one,
For not missing one is on the list,
Before I die,
I want to know I believed,
Believing in me and my will to overcome,
Never doubting my route,
Knowing there will be cuts and bruises,
Handy with my med kit,
I will patch up myself on the go,
Rarely falling on my face,
Working to perfect my landing,
Before I die,
I want to cry in joy,
Oh boy,
Happiness is no toy,
So don’t mess with it,
I want to change a space for the better,
Slowly if not quickly,
But damn sure don’t ever say never,
To complete me,
I would have tried, failed and won,
That’s a cycle to repeat on everything,
Until my clock no longer continues to tic,
My legacy will stand,
Longer than I did.

AFTERNOON KIT KAT | #LIFE

Posted on January 24, 2016January 24, 2016 by Jixi Fox

Coffee - Office Barista

Chilling, calm,
Give me a break,
Hidden subliminals,
Inside of every cake,
Lake outside,
Needs to be dived in,
Baby in it’s carriage,
Pick it up it’s crying,
No whining today,
I am happy,
Chocolate turns me on,
Give me a book to read,
I am inside from the storm,
I just need a break,
From the world,
So here I sit in peace,
I had me a kit kat in hand,
So I broke me off a piece.
