Only in Joisey...

Poem Artwork

Convenience stores have surveillance,

Even Ma & pa shops try to have no grief,

Every place one goes in Jersey has a camera,

Even Wal-mart greeters are armed to the teeth…

 

Automatic weapons do in Jersey abound,

Just in the glove compartment while cruising around,

In the trunk is the heavier firepower,

Carried by Jersey drivers in case we have to climb a tower…

 

Some go further & use as the weapon of choice their car,

Have an argument with someone while drinking,

Leave & return crashing through the wall of the bar,

Drunk do Joisey drivers get, oh yes, really stinking…

It is almost ironic that our society is quickly reverting to the days of the Wild West where every man carried a gun and the quickest draw usually determined who would walk away. Heroes arose in those days to bring peace to the world...where are our heroes?

I thinking about acquiring a weapon of choice myself. Haven't yet, but I am seriously considering it.

Only in Joisey do you have the legendary old Joisey Devil lurkin around at night peekin in windows. But I hear bullets can't stop him, and some in Joisey are now luggin around rocket launchers.

PS: Be careful out in those Pine Barrens, Bro.

Not only in Jersey, my friend. Seems the whole world is cracking up.
