Real?

“Keep it real.”
What's the deal?
With being real?
Is it something that you feel?
Is it something that you can steal?
Maybe you can find it in a saw mill?
Is it a conflict for which we kill?
Is it a test of inner will?
For it, will you bow down and kneel?
He says, “Keep it real.”
Is it something you can find on a grill?
Does it contain dill?
Is it spicy, or does it lack zeal?
Can you find it under an orange peel?
In the earth do you have to till?
“Keep it real.”
What of Alley McBeal?
What if she was given a deal?
Put her on a movie reel?
Does she keep it real?
What do you feel?
Do you “Keep it real?”
