Beautiful Skin

I love the shades
Of your beautiful skin
How in winter it blends
With the sheets we’ve been laying in

I love how the summer sun
Rains as you tan
When your resting on the beach
Laying in the sand

In autumn your skin glows in lantern light
Halloween your skin hides
But I can see your eyes under the mask
And later on I’ll see what’s inside

I love the spring rains turning you porcelain
I love the skin you live in
The flowers aid your angel scent
The intoxicated smell is the reason I sin

I love the beautiful skin your living in
I’m addicted to the taste of it
I love the scent driving me in love
I love the beautiful skin you live in

    They’ve been blindsided by his immortalization on T-shirts, documentaries, handbags and compilations. They see a one-sided Tupac, which mass commercialism has fed them over the past 15 years, but for many of us, we know there was a multifaceted genius beneath the tattoos and head rags.

    In many ways, I grew up a child of Tupac.

    This is ridiculous. Can it be said any louder? I do not want to see people’s underwear! Especially while they are wearing them.

    Yes, I’m talking about young males and their sagging pants. The practice is rude, disrespectful and downright disgusting for me and others who are forcibly subjected to this sight in public. It should be labeled as indecent exposure if it’s not already, and perpetrators should be ticketed.
