Homeless m homeless

Excell Morris III 1970 (Charlotte, North Carolina)



Homeless and Hungry
 
Homeless and hungry when I left the NC

Didn’t have nobody to count on but me Trying to dodge the baby mama drama of mentality of nagging incarceration.

Straying a way from this damnation

Rather just move somewhere else and keep my sanity.

Can’t even looking in a mirror for my own vanity.

I ran to the west coast before 2k

Jump off the greyhound in San Diego and stayed at bay.

Didn’t give a damn just got determined to make my way.

Walking in the downtown street without the familiar hospitality greets.

Seeing homeless everywhere wrapped up in sheets.

It was nighttime and I’ve seen two jerks trying to jump a homeless drunk man that’s not how it works

 

I had to snatch off, two jerks dashed off and me and this guy became the best of friends  He was like my Italian brother without no ends  

 

Anthony Cureilli became sober and man was his story a disaster Cheating wife brought him all the way from Alaska.

 

Homeless and hungry he became my brother we learned many things about each other

We kept it 100 became the Guardians of many  

Keep it moving forward even our paper was so we hadn’t any.

Anytime we had to knuckle up

It was a real dangerous ride so you should buckle up. It much to me cause I’ve seen many people and my face has pass Jet lei, Jackie Chan, Ray Mysterio before he wore a mask.

Remember my face as I walked by the tattoo shop.

I told you don’t worry while I  was eating on a Mexican coconut pop.

On 9th and C, know now that was me

Even Ms.Enterman walking around with her feeding the homeless bagel bag. Even the disable soldier with the determine walker swag.

 

Above the Peachtree apartments at the post office we chilled Many promises kept and sealed.

Met Lisa and found out she had a job at dolphins cove timeshare.

She said she liked my ways and like for me to be there.

So I  tongued her down with a baked potato in my mouth.

Freaked her out so much we got a room and we both headed south.

Oh goodness I care not mention the aftermath.

The bedroom talk  after conversation became I need to get her home walk  

From downtown San Diego to San Diego county to the mountains where we had to camp.

My country survival made me a hero as well as wrestling with a bob cat champ.

In her eyes I seen the damsel in distress.

Even in the mountain she made me never stress. Bobcat became friendly like a loyal friend aint that a mess surprise and it revitalize her persona to realize how to strategize and finalize her life.

Come to find out she was a mother and married Oops didn’t know she was somebodies wife Barfly was what she was before, To drink alcohol was a promise to me, She said nevermore!!

Self esteem never let nobody manipulate.

Believe in yourself because you life is great.

Got a ride thru Temecula where the. Sun peeks through the clouds

Where real Indians use to get fire water and get drunk n loud In riverside He was at peace with that cool ass redman stride
met a guy that was the twin of Jesus  Road in his Toyota and he tried to please us.

We went in a store to get snacks in Compton

Lisa and twin jesus came behind me and that was something

Spent the night with his kin  

I was amazed because they welcome my black azz in

Judging a book by its cover should never be a sin

Young Jesus needed something I had many suits

With gratitude I gave him my suitcase so he could bare his Christianity fruits.

An with this you should take root.

It took as far as west Hollywood.in on Chatsworth blvd this was a nice fellow. Calm cool collective.and.quite.mellow  Waited outside.til DW answered his phone.

Said to lisa he soon be home.

DW took us in and we chilled so well  

Im limited to my story cause Diego also was not my only tale.

You know who I am and I paid it forward with an balance.

I have even more to set. A malice

 

Hey General Houston didn’t forget our talk about injustice of the Wife of the owner of fat burger food chain.

The violence 12 did to her was insane.

Yes I was their too a witness to many things and much more

You.knew my face and the promise you made now its time to settle  score.

I had many names in the night

To many we was the Heros

Even if we was homeless and hungry we never acted like zeros.

We was clean and well kelp.

All you had to do is holler for our help

We protected 24/7 like we never slept

Had a many names  

Never wanted attention and fame.

Just wanted the injustice tamed

When it rains shit runs

When sun is out don’t want to be by none.

Even in the shadows we shined bright.

Kept all protected so all could sleep a goodnight. Protected your dreams protected your life From fright.

Ran all the evils  with a good fight.

Reinforce with tactics that was high and tight Any lagging behind we smit.

Questions and answers was always concealed.

Tucked away hidden and never revealed.

Injured in battle but always healed.

This is just part.of prophecy I was dealed.

My mortality to tame injustice corruption chaos you have willed.

To protect and serve the meek. I have appealed

Centuries rushed heart broken and crushed  Lost my loyal friend in the uprise in Texas

Sacrificed themselves for all of you in the nexus.

Day by day I hope they was reincarnated from the divine.

Cause a true friend loyalty like this is hard to find.

Sitting back hoping and never crossing the line

 

 Man they was my best friend and this I shall never find.

 

May I find my next protégé so we will continue to protect all of mankind

 

 

I hope the rebirth of my friend don’t scare them blind

And they foresee with understanding and it doesn’t disturb my soulmate mind

Our souls has wondered through time as well as history

Trying to find each other was a life long mystery.

Look for the words I know ye from.somewhere from once before

May your questions be answered and to help me,help you I have protected from. Free will and choice

Humble  in my words because this is my voice
