"The Total Package" ... A Poem written by Big Virge

So, what in truth ... ?
makes the, "Total Package" ... ?

Well a black lady ... told me ...
it's Unique delivery
with words that Ravage
A place in the mind ...
that leaves, "Permanent Damage !"

Now ... i'm NOT Linford Christie ...
don't look at my crotch ... !!!
it's word that I use ...
that reach the ... " Top Notch " ... !!!

I play ... Lyrical Hopscotch ...
while others ... stage hop ...
cos verses i'm writing ...
don't need a ... full stop ...

I'm writing with ... Purpose ...
to make your heads ... nod ...
but, don't nod your head ... !!
cos my delivery's ... Hot ...

nod your head .......
..... b'cos ......
logic i've used ....
makes your ears point ....
...... like Spock .... !!!!!

and ideals you hold dear ....
are now on the .... " Rocks " .... !!!

It's poets who plot ...
while dummies just rot ... !!!
cos they're ... Stuck ...
on ... " Performance " ...

NOT ... lyrics you've got ... !?!

Now ... Don't get me wrong
I can take .... "Criticism" .... !!!

BUT .....

Assholes with ... "Opinions" ...
needn't enter ... " My Dominion " ...
cos they'll enter a ... void ...
when my wordplay gets in em' ... !!!!!

I strike ... with ... Sssssssnake Venom
to bite through your Denim ... !!!
and don't feel the need ...
to have a palace ...

Like ...... Blenheim ....... !?!

Just give me a home ....
without mobile phones ...
and freedom to write ...
poems to ... dethrone ...
these ... " CORRUPT " ...
....... Institutions .......

who leave us their bones

But then ... are the first to say ...

"Young man, when in Rome ... "

"Yeah .. when in Rome WHAT ... !?!"

"Live like you're at home ..."

Well .......
that just doesn't seem right ... ?
more ... " Hooligan ", fights ...
by those ... Ignorant Whites ... !!!

Meantime it's ... Us Blacks ... !
who they say ... live to fight ... !?!

Well, maybe that's true .....
That thought ... " Leaves me ... BLUE !!!"

But, get us gloves, and a ring .....
and we'll see who'll be king .....

and i'm not talking .... Don .... !!!
More like .... " Iron Mike " .... !!!

This ... Ear Biting thing ... !!!!!!!!
still doesn't ... seem right ... !?!

"Depression" ..... set in ......
when he dealt with ... women ...
who saw a young man ...
that they knew they could ... "Scam" ...

The Press ... will keep saying ...

"He did this Rape thing .... !!!!!"

But ... I say to you people
Remember ..... D'Amato .......

 A white man who showed
Mike Tyson .... "TRUE LOVE" .....
and proved that his life ....
needn't be so .... " Staccato " .....

Damn ... that was a hard rhyme
to squash like .... " Tomato " ..... !!!!!!

So, who says .... Pot-A-to .... ?
and who says .... Pot-a-to .... ?

Meantime ..... like ...... "Cyrano"
I have a ... Big Nose ... !!!
but ... it fits in my face ...
like my words do ... in Prose ...

So, let me get back to this lady ...
Named ............. Heather ...............

She was Feelin' a poet ....
by the name of .... John Hoe ....

A Geezer .... whose poems have ....
DifFeREnt ..... Flow .... !!!!!!!! .....

But wouldn't you know .....
she said ... "He stole the show !!!" ...
co he's got his own ... flow
and because of these things ...

She'll remember John Hoe ... !!!

Soooooooooooo ....... !???????!

Does delivery define .... ???
 A ... "Poetic Pro" .... !???!

Well... John ... now you know ...
you've got ... a ... "NEW FAN" ... !!!

While I ... she suggested ...
was just the ... next man ...
who ... Wouldn't ... stand out ...
in creative ... Black man ...

Well, I was taken .... "Aback" ... !

But ... Diverting my track ...
will divert me from ... "FACTS" ...
and the FACT .... is this .... !!!

I'm not a .... "Performer" .... !!!
I'm a .... "Social Reformer" .... !!!

My wordplay brings ... Damage ... !!!!!!

I'm not here to ... Perform ....
or to ... carry ... "Your Baggage" ... !!!

which I guess is ... why ... ???
in .... Heathers' eyes ....
and maybe .... now ....

in some of yours ....

I'm .... NOT .... !!!!!!!!

" The Total .... Package " ....
