Early Warning
Opinions obit 'round my head
like planets 'round the Sun
seeking ways to enter in
yet dying, one by one
Political correctness
makes me want to puke
like some obnoxious oxymoron
begging for rebuke
Love looks in the mirror
sees hatred looking back
hence the age-old saw is true
that opposites attract
Do not confuse me with Mankind
that would be quite wrong
much like confusing Afro-rap
with a classic song
Mercy I can never give
it is not shown to me
good and evil live as one
in my philosophy
So revile me if you must
condemn me if you dare
but from the darkness of my soul
I tell you to beware
