this is a piece I wrote concerning the use of crack and the heart troubling effects it can have on ones life.

Listen my children and you shall hear a tale I will tell you thats full of despair. "Crack"  will destroy your mind and if you doubt this I invite you to dine, at my table of freaks,con artis and fools, for when I'm in your system you'll play by my rules.  I'm really a master at what I do and I'm in this land to confuse you.  I care not about color, creed or race, take this ride and I'll lead you to disgrace.  I'm cold hearted and nasty as can be and that you won't deny,  the very frist time you ingest me,  you'll care not if you die !    Yes I'm "Crack"  and bad as can be,  I'll make you steal from your family to satisfy me.  I care not if you eat, sleep or bath for I'm the master and your the slave. Stay with me long enough and I'll ride you to your grave.  I love paranoia and distrust,  I'll have you sell your body if it be a must.  I take no prisoners and respect no child, woman or man, in time I'll annihilate this entire land.  Yes I'm  "Crack"  so try me if you will, I'll give a wimp a reason to kill.   I've given you some insight into what I can do,   the rest my friend is up to you. Now, many will read these words and many will heed, the ones that don't  will surley bleed.  "Crack"   is a monster as there is no other, It will make a person forsake thier children and may be kill thier own mother.   So hear these words and hear them well......LEAVE "Crack" ALONE OR IT WILL TAKE YOU TO HELL.    "poet88me"   Mansfield L.Armstead  AKa  "Bklyn OG

This work of mine is very deep, written some years ago and in all reality it's so sad to say....this drug is still among us all as a people, destroying lives,individuals and family's.

I pray this year and day 1/28/12 that my poem gets out there for the world to read and most importantly touch and help someone overcome this monster that feeds on us all,in one way or another.
With the lives I have touched over the years from "Muhammad Ali" to "Run DMC" on down, I know there is someone out there that will help me get "The Lesson" out there. MLA

This is one of my works, I hope all that read it will learn something.
"Crack" is a very serious drug, put and developed on this earth to "Take us Out !" Read these words and take "Heed" hopefully you will gain some insight into this monster in our midst ! Be well... and most of all learn from a brother with wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Peace a father and parent............"Bklyn OG"
