On the Roof (Approach ii)

by BarneySkip

On top of a house
Sitting on a roof
Spoke two young characters
With they minds aloof
Who wants proof?
This is a freestyle of what it is:
Philosophy, Chess and Poetry
By high but sharp kids
Keys and locks
Spoke lines like chalk
Discussed blowin ‘em
But you’re better off showin’ it
to prove you’re dope—
I think therefore I can
Run with the trains
Third rail, electric brains.
Talk about a girl,
Okay, I give in,
piece of advice, twink twice
Before hidin’
Confide, spill your heart,
Game is game
you have to start
Even if you don’t
light he wick
One of these days,
she might wantcha wantcha
Implied is the Richard
Robbed of exposure
Hi, my name is Jim and
It is nice to know ya.
Let me guess, you like books,
Iced coffee and travel.
Huh, me too,
Maybe we unravel
our spines and get loose,
you don’t need to drink
Beer like juice, like me,
You’re perfect just how you be
I can see it beneath your breastplate—

Interruption
You could never be that smooth...
Checkmate

On top of a house
Sitting on a roof
Spoke two young characters
With they minds aloof
You just got proof
Style free of what it was
Fluidity chain-react with
Word is bond
Bond is love.
