Angles



Have you ever found yourself facing someone else and they start to converse?
Giving passive aggressive energy
Displaying a grin but within you can see the frowns that they've camouflaged
Painting pictures with words
But missing the nouns that compliment the verbs
Fluent English is heard, but something's still missing
In the realm of hip-hop, they'd prefer to use the term "sneak dissing"
Angles are for shapes, and I'm no square
I'm annoyed by the lukewarm temperature of hot and cool air
Do not attempt to dress your statements
Speak naked...
You're in need of some courage, once you've set the record straight, just embrace it
Address me with poise, and bravery
Please say what you must say to me
My fiery drive has become bored with your watered down truths
Angles are for students, so, let's not engage as youths
Angles...
Never best around the bush, approach me  with a clean delivery
Refrain from using angles to straighten, or belittle me
Angles
