'Scan The Bar Code'
© Raul Cortes Jr. 7-26-19
When we spell the words 'silent' & 'listen', we use the same letters.
Born with two ears, so we aught to be twice as driven to let a..
'Nother person speak. How much can we understand if we talk over?
If we don't park & turn the ignition off, all we hear is the motor.
Idle conversations & wasted gas, the price sprung like a coil.
Reevaluation, collective goals & ideas, the mass of my oil.
When you take the road less-traveled, you'll need an imaginary friend..
Who listens, within context & understand you to the very end.
We got two eyes to read & two ears to hear.
Our brain does both if the filter is active & clear.
I'm introverted for real, the AC speaking to me in the summer.
Helps the universe unveil its mysteries, tap into frequencies & numbers.
Its winter season for a lifetime in the hearts of many.
I keep myself like mercury when its retrograded, count my blessings, starting with pennies.
A dime for a thought, a quarter for a bar & a dollar for a poem.
The brain is a ATM & I got the proper codes.
The Alphabet boys enforce mind control.
But they can't enslave this creative being, weaponized when the coins are rolled.
