Parted Beijing to this city, reading English with a frown on
Started off by swimming seas of toddler’s books, that’s where I drowned on
Reading Dr. Seuss, from Wimpy Kid to Nancy Drew and now I’m
Reading ’bout a thane in Scotland kill his king to put a crown on
Wasn’t gonna stay in ESL 4L; it’s like hotels, know
Stays are so luxurious but costs delirious to hells, though
It’s dependencies they sell, you might just end up in cartel, so
Persevere don’t disappear as one-catch wonders like Odell
Topics going back and forth like people writing as two pen pals
Era of trochaic octameter has come to an end now
Oozing out thoughts in the present
Hope you Falcons don’t mind tangents
Still three stanzas left to unveil
From the main theme this train derailed
Never too late to come back
Grab a water, grab a snack
Even when we’re down twenty
Time and skill we got plenty
On the court, I throw dimes
Off the sport, I flow rhymes
Got ’em speechless; might go mime
Cue the homies, it’s comeback time.
