Damn

By BobInAustinTexas

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I have a gun in my pocket as I walk on to school It's to cover my ass from the crown jewels This gun's not a toy and this gun's not for play It's for survival through the end of today Drive by shootings, a killing in the park People afraid to leave the house when out comes the dark I'm proud of my neighborhood, take care of my boys we're in this together and in this we find joy There's death all around us though, and thats said to say I just wait my turn for it to take me away A bullet doesn't stop to think, feel, or cry So, I probably won't get the chance to just say goodbye Written March 11th, 2002 © on Mar 11 2002 08:15 AM PST, Bob   18 • 0 • 9
