Broken rhymes
Broken lines
Black and blue ink
Streams of consciousness
Day dreams
Strung into print
Sit and think
Meditate
Time fly
The mind strays
Night to day
In every which way
We keep moving
Cement roads
Cats eyes
Night skies
Bricks and mortar
GM
Fast foods
Additives
Liquor and water
Gasoline guzzling
Environment crippling
The high kicking in
From drugs in the system
The eye's glisten glazed
Mans will seldom listen
Visions of hospital beds
And filthy prisons
Spiritual innovations
Mind sets
Mind frames
And mind notes
Inherited knowledge
Each one
Teach one
We keep hope
Because it's no joke
Pantomime
Or comedy scene
The streets stay mean
You could get taken
Eyes wide
Keep looking don't trip over mice tales
Pied piper dreamers
Opportunists and schemers
City life
Working class
Day to day hustle
Rowdy nights
Pay days
Out causing trouble
Ignition turn
Sparks fly
Engines burn
High speed
No seatbelts
Some people never learn
Grey skies
Chimney tops
Hot spots
Roads and rivers
The daily crime rate rises
Sometimes the spine shivers
Cigarettes and liquor
Street drugs and prescriptions
Live fast
Die young
This life's a contradiction
Life try chew us up
Spit us out
And use us
One step forwards
Two steps back
Sometimes it seems useless
The struggle can be ruthless
Got to keep treading water
Get caught slipping
Get got
Lamb to the slaughter
Young dealers
And killers
Streets turn spaghetti westerns
Jakes
Handcuffs
And cells
Interviews
And 50 questions
Street trade
Black market
Supply and demand
Warrants
And red hands
Too much mans on remand
Fires burn
Kids learn
Corrupted philosophies
Street fables
Take the place
Of books and dictionaries
Warlords and mercenaries
Corruption and bribery
Ignorance increasing
No kids in the library
This constant rivalry
On the news at 10
Another person
Has bled red blood to death
Which minute brings the last breath
Object of speculation
Pictures and scriptures
High speed broadband information
No contingency plan
Surf waves
Crash and burn
Fly or die
Intelligence forgot
We all want to earn
Watch faces
Watch diamond watch faces
Money made places
Man made oasis
We travel sands
Sweaty blood money
Always passes hands
And it never stops
Whether currency increases
Or the stock drops
They still plot
On these pounds and pence
Identity crisis
We struggle for relevance
PEACE LOVE & PEOPLE POWER!
