A poem 2 the impatient

The time has come 4 changes
U sue me
But what’s in a name?
If I change 2 what ever it is
Would the music be the same?

U speculate 2 no end
With sight unseen and heard
If I am the Shepard
What does that make u?
The herd?

Just sit and relax
4 sometimes the wait is the FUN
When it’s time 4 a payoff
Don’t u want 2 come?

Graycap23--

This is gonna be interesting. Come the end of this month you are either going to be viewed as a supremely "in the know" Prince genius, or just some fool running his mouth. I hope it is the former because I want a tour and all the good shit you mentioned coming out in December.

It's "shepherd"

Actually, Shepard's is an online and printed legal citation tool, which might make it the right word choice in this case considering the lawsuit.

I'm sure that's one of the many layers of meaning carefully woven into this composition.

Valiant try... but the word used wasn't "shepard's"

That's unfair.

Equally trite shite.

What part?

"If I am the Shepard
What does that make u?
The herd?"


That does seem very Prince like.
Gray is a good study.

Either that or he believes he's Prince.
Keep an eye out for Prince tribute band world tours at the end of the month.

It's been this way ever since

it wasn't a compliment, but someone with as big a head as his (if that were possible) would only take it as such, wouldn't they?

btw, you write like a white boy lol
your rhythm's all off

A good shepard will never take his flock where he had not already been before. The good shepherd goes on ahead to insure safe passage of his sheep.
Psalms 23:1-6

I think P see's God as his Shepard not a man and I doubt he see's himself as one either, but a interesting poem and I like it "all good things come 2 those that wait (copywrite my mama wink)" -anyway- I'm away 2 chat now lol

shepard is the name of a radio dj from the sixties and seventies. (gene sherpard, who wrote the story upon which the played 24hrs in a row "Christmas Story is based upon).
Sheperd is someone who tends flocks.
