The Untravelled Road

"The Untravelled Road"
Negro Necro Nekros, 1998


Explain to me this
World hurled into what depths?
Synapse connect left
Jesu' perplexed?
Riddled answers just guess
Amount much to knots
Kept essence in inkblots
Why bother watch?
Unfocused smiles fall uncoordinant
Unpleasant stares ... they fall harder on pavement
Divine, my six $en$e barely pays rent
Speak in jagged tune to us vagrants
Lost patience.
Spoke dead tongue from basements
Trace this back to nights of backspins
Evil-eyed by them has-beens with glass chins
Much to my chagrin I caught wind of your pseudo-revolution
Dried hemoglobin in need of transfusion.


Untraveled road I wander barefoot
Unravel left lobe hold tight your good book
took all them got type Job niggas shook


One tends to forget all its rawness
Intricate underground movements as in a game of spades.
(Mundane months profess the soft charade)
It all this vision which obstructs our sight
(Why you so concerned with shades? I don't even remember your name!)
A pound now just to be polite.
(Had 20/20 back when we was tight.)
Unrattled nerves
I heard your words rattle off center
Don't give a fuck about your tenure
Eyed you since you entered
My verbal tends to render you obsolete
Lay your head to concrete
My blood of life be beats
So who you to desecrate?
Left lobe oscillates in twilight disgust
Thoughts stared as such scraps of papers I clutch
Hold no clue
Paradigm dismantled
Mind missing type Maya wearing Jesus' sandal.


Untraveled Road I wander barefoot
Unravel left lobe hold tight your good book
took all them got type Job niggas shook
