My NEW Poetry Book BLACK FIRE PLAYA Is for Young readers(Teens) And to the Youngins on the street that don't want to live Past 17 Years Old.The Followers Not the Leaders.
I’m Gon Have to slam it like it is
Not ‘’Dumb Down’’ Like when you kick it to ya Peers.
So If ya got fears…
Cover Ya kids ears
Cause I’m gon have at go back with no Tears.
Not meant to offend this is how it begins
From Shackles an Slave Ships
To semi auto with Clips
Aimed random acts at Welfare mothers
an Foster kids
Sayin Its Your ‘’Hood ‘’ You Rep
But the Landlord the One Collecting that Check!
Think he care who’s Blood on his Steps?
Bullet in the Head laying on the Curb
Not a Dream Deferred Ya Heard?
Or get on ya ‘’swerve’’
Nightmare of Retaliation aint no way to Build a Nation.
The harsh reality of society and the upbringing of youth that does not have a future set within the life of today...it is so sad to see and knoe that many will not grow past their teens...a sad reality and one you have expressed well within this poetic display...
