What Have You Heard of Me

What have you heard of me oh friend? Those who can’t beat my reach complain so silly my description, exchanging mouths but of weight, its devoid giving the street a diluted colour so ill-founded. What have you heard of me oh friend? Every shadow is seen as mine to give light words clarity for God sake! I’m just underneath the tree spoilers of my name preach b’cos they can’t see my base. What have you heard of me my friend? They are pained because I’m unperturbed and spirited false sentences have spent a heavy budget to be efficacious it’s not an experiment, I’m too large for their vivarium oh friend, what have you done by embracing their culture? Whatever you’ve heard of me friend, you’ve joined the labourers to build my ruin my heart is soiled, from your presence I’ve quarantined I cried until the graveyard consoles me with its threat. It’s a pity to me, it’s a pity to you my friend you’ve not only heard but also said of me.
