The man
The myth
The legend
The man who said
Nazz
The man who brings us poetry
Every day
The man who pulls no punches
With no punk asses
You are the inspirer who inspires the uninspired
and you
Were the friend I needed

You are the shot of spark
That illuminates our dark
You have really made the grade
You are the space shuttle
Nitrogen Gas
Moon landing

you are the friend I needed
The man who said Nazz
Who writes Tonkas and reads
Levine
a man who has forged his own way in the poetry scene

You are the friend I needed
And I’m glad you haven’t given up on the poetry the pen and the movement
Of poetry for improvement
You are the friend that I needed

You are the man who said Nazz
