Do You Believe in Lyrical Miracles?

Do You Believe in Lyrical Miracles?
by Sabrina Dawkins

Though she disagreed with the lyrics,
Left Eye seemed to have a ball in the video.
Too morally weak to shun TV fame,
she needed a lot of help from an angel.
What if I told you Lisa Lopes got inspiration
to write the “Creep” rap verse
from an unexpected source,
since TLC is not a Christian group.
An angel temporarily took her place;
he was concerned about the youth,
daughters of Israel in particular,
catching a bioweapon virus
they couldn’t get rid of
because they listened to secular singers and rappers
telling them to be promiscuous,
as if there are no consequences.
What did Kim Porter really die of?
On BET, Destiny’s Child showed how to cater lap dances
to rappers, unfaithful ballers, and TV thugs.
So this angel in flesh
but also elsewhere in spirit,
like Christ on the cross
and also Father in heaven,
tried to redirect the path
of young impressionable minds
that listened to secular music
so their vaginas wouldn’t become buckets
for psychopaths who didn’t love them.
So DARP remixed it with the help of an angel.
And, oh my, oh my, oh my,
he exposed them,
“the number one item on the chart,”
which “Creep” was on the Billboard,
causing moral decline.
He had hoped Dawn Richard
wouldn’t have become P. Diddy’s daughter.
But the allure of Hollywood
causes black females to worship and buy their records
and become single mothers
to Dallas Austins
and all the others,
cool guys who are immoral,
whom their favorite secular females
big-up in wisdomless songs.
