Letter to the Streets

If the white powder is power

then sign my soul over.

Blood, lust, in green I trust

for some red soles and a Range Rover.

Drugs are a neccessity to dull this reality

real life is depressing so I feign immortality.

I sink my fangs into the arteries of the game

and remain on script loyally

so I can stay blisfully ignorant

and the consumer will always want more of me.

Barbarism isn't just a method of acting

it's a way of life that I'm living on the daily.

Cellphone camera's snapping

catching me in mid action

being defied and incriminated

all on the same token

committing felonies and achieving ectasy all in one motion

its real

like Columbus when he arrived

my state of being is a rollercoaster

so come take this wild ride.

I like this piece - truth unfolded and injected into reader

to take it as it is - uncut reality

nicely penned.
