POUNDING ON THAT ANVIL OF FATE

Bobby O



POUNDING ON THAT ANVIL OF FATE

I Ain't got that Fred Astaire glide, but I push deadbeats aside, and hide not, fear none, live each day like they my last one. I Pound down, Thor style, hammerin at the anvil of fate, i aint Ali, ain't tryin' to b great, but it's a mistake to look past me, I drop knowledge, just ask me.   
  In My mind's masterpiece, my Mona Lisa,it's a work in progress, I ain't ever  done, I grew up listening to Sam Cooke and  believe that change is gonna come.  I Believed Diana and reached out to touch Someone. I Seek wisdom from the wise with unglazed eyes and I crave tomorrow's hand, dealt either crooked or straight, I'm eager just to pound on the  Anvil of Fate. It's a mistake to look past me, I'm dropping knowledge just ask me, I hope my reflections unmask me 
Bobby O So Good.

        Always appreciate the read. Did I miss the reference to Fred? These days I’m slower.

          Great read
          Very musical vibe not because of named musicians
          Super rhythm
          Keep reaching Bobby
          Touching

          Cool. Sometimes I go rap it to impress the ladies

          Ah fate! "A change is gonna come" indeed! In the meantime, since, "it's a mistake to look past you", please continue to drop knowledge! We are eager! Beautiful piece!
