Barber Shop Tales/–“She Asked Me To Buy Flowers”

Ole Man Busta said he wanted to Read A Poem he had been working on for a Few Weeks.

We all quieted down for Ole Man Busta as he coughed & cleared his throat to drop some Jewels on the brothers the other day down at the Barber Shop.

Ole Man Busta broke off the lines & you could hear a Rat Piss Carpet.

” She Asked Me to Buy Flowers

She asked me
to Buy Flowers
to show
How SPECIAL SHE IS
I brought her a Video Camera
to Make The Movies
she said
she always wanted to Make

She asked me to
Buy Flowers
to show
How SPECIAL SHE IS
I brought her
Paint & Canvas
to Paint the World
She had Inside herself
Begging to Come out on Canvas 

She asked be to Buy
Flowers & A Card
with Beautiful Words
to show
How SPECIAL SHE IS
I wrote her A Poem
from the Deepest Place
in my Heart
I got Real Close
&
said them in her Ears

She Asked me
To Buy Flowers
to Show 
How SPECIAL SHE IS

Flowers
what she asked Me to Buy
But I can’t

I Wish she Understood
I have listened
to her Real Heart Desires
The Whole Time

I Love Her

I am not
making another Man Rich with False Symbols of Love

He does not Know
her Beautiful Heart & Desires
Like I Do.”
