2 WORDS {COLLAGE ii}



I got 2 words:

Crack baby – Black baby;

Why baby – died baby

Tell me why they lied to me…

One word:

Police

Two words:

Squad cars;

White folks – rich folks;

Black folks – behind bars;

Fast cars –high way;

Speed chase;

Need money – bad heist;

D. A. – pleading case;

Locked down – Black man;

In need – white Christ

I got 2 words:

My life – my eyes;

My pain – my cries;

My shame – my soul;

I give – His name

I live in the piss of the slums,

Where the young stays dumb,

And the blind only lives to see the crime increase with time…

I got one word:

Mines…

One word:

Yours…

In a world where she fucks yours before you fuck hers

One word:

Rape

One word:

Take… a black man to court for having an erection on a date

Or for being human –

Getting freaky in the privacy of his own home –

Trying to get his bone on – and turning on the video tape

I got one word:

Kobe

Another word:

Innocent

Or is he no better than…

One word:

Thomas

Another word:

Jefferson

In other words,

If the chick had been a slave,

Then the brotha would be acquitted

Save the drama for Bin Laden,

And stop killing our soldiers in the street

I got 2 words:

Crack baby – Black momma – O.D’d

Crack rock – right price;

Crack head – takes life

I got 2 words:

Knocked up – third-teen;

Fee-male – Black male;

Eight-teen – pleading case;

Can not – make bail

The system was designed for a brotha like me

To stay broke – cooped up in the piss poor slums of poverty

So, with my last words – I’ll say:

Both eyes – wide shut;

Closed tight – this is;

My life – fuck y’all;

Good day.





Tha Prodigal One…
