    Lamentations (Werechild)

    I put my pen to paper and my finger to keyboard,
    Create now not later - never linger on one chord,
    Force thoughts to appear - flirting with aneurysm,
    An absentminded seer lurking in a prism’s prison,
    Make from my will an anvil and my chi a hammer,
    Then shatter the veil so light spills free of damper,
    Problem reverses - ideas flow too fast for my hand,
    Innumerable verses which only last a mere second,
    Focus is necessary - I must fashion my own Matrix,
    Rhyming is secondary to my passions and hatreds,
    I latch onto the twisting strand as a topic emerges,
    A tale of a distant land - related via gothic dirges…


    A long forgotten ruin lies dappled with sunlight,
    A man is seated - effortlessly avoiding eyesight,
    Impalpable weights seem to hunch his shoulders,
    His neck imparts resemblance to that of vultures,
    Long limbs and digits best described as gangly,
    His attire attempts popularity but does so vainly,
    No matter their cost clothing won’t make him fit,
    Something’s wrong - just can’t lay a finger on it,
    An open book rests by his side with pages worn,
    While he whittles wood into a recognizable form,
    Salt-stung cheeks and mustache streaked with mucus,
    His knife relentlessly seeks and unearths... Canis lupus.

    Silhouetted against the sky a noble figure stands,
    Stars glimmer from above as he surveys his lands,
    He is resilient and powerful, both agile and quick,
    Given adequate intelligence and also cunning wit,
    Bushy tail is lifted high and alert ears stand erect,
    Tongue lolls to side while keen senses heat detect, (heat - female musk)
    Loping forward the direwolf now leaves the ridge,
    Sensitive nose questing as he weaves thru foliage,
    A mystifying nectar entices him to move urgently,
    The source lies where two paths move divergently,
    The bitch turns head over shoulder - her glance is coy,
    He mounts and releases but moonlight shatters the joy.

    Six foot tall while stooped and two-fifty pounds,
    Corded muscles undulate from powerful bounds,
    Taloned hands and feet complement fanged jaws,
    A silky coat covers the beast from head to paws,
    Red pupils gleam - a prophecy of blood to come,
    His vicious snarl makes the confused female run,
    Abnormally quick he catches and tears asunder,
    The body which had filled his mind with wonder,
    He feasts on the remains and is finally satisfied,
    Then returning sanity causes craving for suicide,
    But his aether is too strong - he’s sought death before,
    So he sits in his ruin and lets wolf carvings litter floor.

    I count at least four morals - you might see less,
    What’s better than corals - Do you wan’na guess,
    Solomon said wisdom and I would tend to agree,
    So in case you missed em’ listen quickly to me,
    1. You can’t change your spirit it’s useless to try,
    Spit your own lyric to brand your name on sky,
    2. Power is a state of mind not a thing of the flesh,
    Channel your soul thru rhyme to make self best,
    3. Violence is the result of an ignorant condition,
    So who’s actually at fault if nobody will listen,
    4. Last one’s up to you and it’s whatever you want,
    ...Just don’t forget my ruin and it’s solitary haunt.

    He is resilient and powerful, both agile and quick,
    Given adequate intelligence and also cunning wit,
    Bushy tail is lifted high and alert ears stand erect,
    Tongue lolls to side while keen senses heat detect,
    Loping forward the direwolf now leaves the ridge,
    Sensitive nose questing as he weaves thru foliage,


    hmmm the vocab was perhaps a bit to good since it lost me in a few places.. but went with the piece quiet well... goood work

    Hmmm...this was a decent drop..I can see that you are still using your rhyming dictionary...your wordplay was too basic for me..you kept a steady flow...you had a decent imagery going...this was a decent piece..peace..

    Structure is almost flawless
    flow was on key with the struct.

    when i get a chance to read it thouroly
    from what im seeing u have vocab on
    lock and your lines connect with each other
    good stuff.s. not understanding the storyline

    "not understanding the storyline"

    thnx for feedback - basically it's the story of a werewolf - contrasting the various parts of his nature. Man form - outcast, intelligent (worn book) but never at home. Wolf form - powerful, as evidenced by his virility - he is most at home here. Werewolf form - has the most potential but is flawed and in the end destroys his existence completely - morals are summarized at the end.

    This is a great piece, topic original, I dont think I've ever seen it done before... Multis were there, flow was fuckin crazy... imagery really helped too move the story along... Vocab was str8... wordplay was alright... The piece as one ---> I think everything rolled together smoothly, and this would make a hot audio... Dope piece bro... Keep at it. Peace.

    You know when i read this....I just laughed...not because this was weak...just becaus this is a completley ORIGINAL topic....haha..i mean I like to rhyme from the perspective of a demon/vampire...haha or even a cybernetic warrior of some kind....but damn I have never even thought of spitting as a warewolf...I thought it was going to be corny since i've never read anything of yours besides broken metamorphosis...and i thought that was nice...but i was like "what can you do with a warewolf topic??"...but much to my surprise you really did come through.....the only part i didnt care for too much is that last verse...your talking about his morals...i didnt know a warewolf had morals you know??...but i guess you have to take into account his human side right??....the verse was nice..it just seemed kinda out of place if you compare it to the other verses...but keep droppin like this.....im out

    thnx for feed - the part about morals is not about the werewolf's morals - it's about the morals in the story - tales of fiction usually have some - so I just highlighted some of the main ones

    With your shit im never sure if its supposed to be rapped or spoken, cos i cant seem to rap any of your shit, i get half way and stop cos i gotta picture in my head....lol

    That was ILL you put a lotta thought into it obviously, and the amount of visuals it gave me was unbelievable...this part had so much imagery in it...

    "He feasts on the remains and is finally satisfied,
    Then returning sanity causes craving for suicide,
    But his aether is too strong - he’s sought death before,
    So he sits in his ruin and lets wolf carvings litter floor."

    I liked that piece, keep it up...good work.

    nice drop my friend...

    vocab was on point...not too much..not too little..
    it made the imagery stand out pretty dope...
    the whole things was tight ....but i liked the 3rd and 4th
    verses the most....
    the least favorite part...was the intro...i wasnt really
    feeling....it almost ruined it all for me...but it didnt
    there's nothing else i can say about this...other
    than a more effective intro would do better...thats it..
    peace...

    excellent piece. quite long and intrigueing. the flow was almost perfect, and so was the structure. the built up a good image of wut you were letting out in my mind. i enjoyed wut you were saying, as well as how you were saying it. the vocab was jus as great as the complexity. keep it ill man, keep dropping.

    fav. line:
    Violence is the result of an ignorant condition,
    So who’s actually at fault if nobody will listen.
