P.E.G.S Poets: Alya's Funk II

Alya's Funk II

This funk I feel is more than words
More than an attitude
This funk is my reals
My truths that I'm spilling to you
These feelings
Stopped up by my own
Fears of the tears
That run deep
As canyons that have
No bottom to catch this pain
That top the height of my agony
Do you feel me?
Or do you judge me
Because I am square
And don't fit into your
Circles of mediocrity
This heart that beats inside of this cage
Is filled with righteous rage
Rage fueled by being stepped on and over
Tucking within myself just to find cover
This funk is real
As from all directions
The sting of being me
I feel

A Note From Alya!

I just wanted to drop a note to say "Thank you" to all of the followers of this blog and especially my P.E.G.S Poets Contributors! Our beginning is slow, but we are growing into a small family. My goal for P.E.G.S is to build a poetry community website for all poets who truly love to write and have the art of expression. The future and the notoriety of P.E.G.S depends solely on word of mouth, so if you are a first time visitor to the site please take a moment to drop a little note that says you dropped by and by all means tell people about P.E.G.S! If you would like to support the future building of the P.E.G.S website, please purchase a T-shirt. We at the P.E.G.S family welcome you to join us and we thank you for stopping by!Alya and the P.E.G.S Family!
