The Cotton Book: Quality And Quantity (Lost Pages)



you too should hone your Project Manager's skill with
Quality and Quantity
as pest come and go
projects get unfold
police stop patrolling to a point of no tickets are possible to be sold
for sale signs and leases
1900s concrete buildings on they last foundation still vibrating life spiritually
vines cover across windows and faces like a frontpage
the homeless inhabits into their new homes now
while judges and politicians plan and plot
drug dealers get hot hot
rapists and pedophiles prowl out like sheep awaiting for your head to turn away
another likkle one is on the milk carton today as a printed memory
they told you exactly who they were and what was their purpose
although no-one never listened
instead they was entertamed by shamelessness
that's why kids are killing kids constantly living themselves up as serial killers just to be raped one night behind cold steel bars bleeding from their anus helplessly
turned out and tricked
or forced to kill or they too will be punctured and slit
on the yard or in the bed dried blood slept on
expired and fed pain non-everlasting
another tear is tatted on the faces who never ratted
wardens are patted
graves are filled as everyone knows what happened
and how you like him now
he took one of yours under
scarred your life foul
is why me and mine stay focused
on Quality and Quantity
while colorism battles racism for turf of the mindsets
religions be the atmospheres
but Benjamin Banneker from the traditional Dogon of Mali never taughtus that
and Yaa Asantewaa never taught feminism
and as a mind of fact we humble as we get hitting pitch fore pitch clacking hits
outta da park
arms lift
vocals uplifts
outsiders who couldn't get in stay pissed
they liver stopped as they bladder spent liquid waste outwards
wetting themselves poisoned from that alcohol
oh well Al Capone
the ATF too
cause i use my hops for medicinal purposes
fools be unintelligible by the shades of skins contemplating wisdom
though all they learned was how to pull out after their repetition took form on his or her own
better abort before she says you too late
for your own kind sake
and Planned Parenthood's founder significance of hate
up to date?
yeap...
with only Quality and Quantity as a Project Manager with Series 7 on my list as accomplishments although law school first....
