flow so sick
they call me
the trojan poet
bringing this
covert verse
disperse ideas
disguised as
a gift but
these spits
bear hidden cargo
of warrior nouns
and a calvalry
of verbs... words
which rhyme
syllables which
simply brush
each other and
chime will
infiltrate
listening
minds

This is quite interesting Sampson. I'm intrigued by it. I thought the end section was outstanding:

...words
which rhyme
syllables which
simply brush
each other and
chime will
infiltrate
listening
minds

I can't say I understand the beginning:

flow so sick
they call me
the trojan poet
Not sure what's flowing and why it would be sick. But hey, good little poem.

Cheers Virgil! The opening was taken from a 'freestyle' (spontaneous rapping) and the rest of the poem kind of emerged from it. The last bit, which you highlighted, is my favourite part. The rest was something of a poetic warm up...
