    And So On

     

     

     

    And So On

     

    A child is born and it's a boy

    just like any other kid

    he played with toys.

    As he grew older his mind

    began to change, from cowboys

    and indians

    to a street learned game.

    A thug is what it is called,

    in this life he thought he

    had it all.

    With no father figure,

    he had to think bigger

    for his younger brother

    who had no other.

     

    Money Money Money

    bling bling bling

    Not giving any thought to the

    hurtful sting.

    Destruction and then death

    was seen as his brother

    wept,

    "Mother" Don't worry, I

    won't go that way.

    And so on there came

    a brighter day.

    wonderful structure , I enjoy the quazi poetic story format we share at times . This was both a beautiful and sad piece. Its style , diametric and its duality in essence its balance in beauty. Thank You.
