"Sell" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 20/11/2016

Is it ... Coincidental ... ?
That SELL Is A Word That Rhymes With HELL ... !?!
Or ... Consequential ...
With Joining Herds Who Forever Dwell ...
Down Below Cos' Their Price Was Low ....
Like Those Whose Course Sells Themselves ... short ...
A DANGEROUS Path And That's For SURE ... !!!
So This Piece of Prose Is Built To Show ...
How Things Can Go When You SELL Your Soul ... !!!!!
You'll Get Your Time In The ... " SPOTLIGHT " ...
But Will Face A Price ...
That's HIGHER Than Hikes Or Jordans' Nikes' ... !!!
A Price SO HIGH That You CAN'T BUY Or Try To DEFY ...
What It Is You've Resigned Your Life To Be Like ...
Cos' You Chose To Sign On A CRoOKeD Line ... !!!!
NOT Dotted But Blotted By ... COMPROMISE ...
A Line Where You AVOID The Queue ... !!!
Because You're Pushed Through By Those Who USE ...
And Then TAKE HOLD Or WORSE ... "CONTROL" ... !!!
The Keys And Means By Which You Move ...
And Get To Be A Person Who ...
Is Seen As Being Someone Who's COOL ... !!!!!
I Guess It's True What Can You Do ... ?
In A World Where The Price of Life Is TRIFE ... !!!
Like Mobb Deep Said You CAN'T Defend Being IGNORANT ... !!!!!
Especially When You SELL What You SHOULD Hold On To ... !!!

....................... WHO YOU ARE .................... !!!
NOT Playing Your Smart When Your Ass Is GRASS ... !!!
Because You SOLD Yourself Like GOLD That FOOLS Collect .... !!!
Just Like The Cheques That Banks ... REJECT ... !!!
Because They BOUNCE Around Like Hounds ... !!!!!
Who SELL Your Stock Before It ... " drops " ...
So That YOU Take The Loss While They Move On ...
WITHOUT Paying The Cost To Be .... " The Boss " .... !!!!
NO James Brown Songs Or Links To Hold On ....
Cos' The Groove Is GONE That You Thought Was STRONG ...
You SEE When You SELL OUT The DARKEST CLOUDS ALWAYS Surround ... !!!
Until It's Time For You To Get Drowned ... !!!
Because You CLOWNED Yourself To Wear Crowns ... !!!
That Have NO WORTH You See Souls Get BURNED ... !!!
When They DON'T LEARN That HARD Work EARNS ...
MORE Than Interns Who CHOOSE To Shirk ....
It's Jerks Who Lurk And Turn Like Worms ... !!!
Whenever They THINK That It's THEIR TURN ...
To SELL THEMSELVES Like EMPTY SHELLS ... !!!
Their Heads AREN'T Well Because Their TELLS Have DIRTY SMELLS ... !!!!!!!
Their Cards LACK Hearts...
So Have To Be MARKED For Them To WIN ...
Well That's What They THINK ... !!!
As I've Said Before These People ARE The WEAKEST LINK ... !!!!!
Because Their Course Is UNCERTAIN For Sure ... !?!?!
That's Right ... UnEveN Like Heathens Preaching ... !!!
Their Form of Believing Is Scheming, Deceiving Financially LEECHING ... !!!
Because They Keep Breaching The Code Where Achieving ...
Requires NO SALE It's Work ... Details ...
A Level Where FAILS STRENGTHENS Your Sails .... !!!!!!
NO SELLING OUT To Ride The Clouds Where DARKNESS Shrouds ...
Because Those Who Surround Have Financial CLOUT ... !!!!!
They'll CLAIM That They Have Made Their Way ...
And DIDN'T Do So Because of ... " PAY " ...
They May Be RIGHT But LOOK At Their Lives ...
And Then Ask Yourself When It Comes To YOUR SOUL And How You Roll ...
Do You Think It's Wise And Will Serve You WELL ...
To Put A Price On Oneself And ..... Choose to ....

............................... " SELL " .........................
