POEPISODE 3 Final series “Journey with me to my head of old Meet iyonda my playful gate keeper She rolls in flowery plains Like a laughing hyena she cries Gazing at her broken water pot She thinks of the whips that await her And wishes she could be here forever So i make her my head’s gate keeper In here no whip can touch her But iyonda do me solid, get up and sing!

All and sunder observe and watch Sink or swim they want to know your options We thought our Turmoil had seized Seemed like ripple effects “He is unbalanced!” Said the Psychotic; analyst I came in Glorious Ascension Dripping in olive oil and honey From my christener to the Godmother holding me up I squeezed her hand and sneezed, she laughed! “the boy is ready for work” she said Thus my journey began Elizabeth said, “this my boy you have such potential You will be a creator” “You will be a Narrator” Richard said that instead Well a Creative narrator would not have much to live on now would he? “Ignore them” my head said.
