As an illuminating star over comes petty shadows br so do I conquer worthless sloppy thoughts that rest at the pits of failure br The dogs are barking but I still listen only to my heart br Their doubtful mouths mean no more to me than br rotten banana peels resting at the feet of monkeys br Sharp corners I bump into at the cornerstones of glory are but wounds br I lick to health with a saliva that carries wisdom and determination br I squeeze the throats of snakes that carry venomous words of lies br A light switch has been turned on in the dawn of a fast paced world br where all the signs read only what their writers have written from their own illusions, br I only care to read the the signs of truth the signs of a God br that is not completely understood but whom is felt br You order me to clap my lights out but your no where near God br so I illuminate with a fierce ray that feels like the charisma of love and excellencebr br Angelo Velasquezbr br
