    I Wish

    I wish i could of walked back in time to where my father was making love to my mother and interrupted them before he impregnated her with me. At times i feel so lonely,so unwanted, so torn to the point that sometimes i wish i was never born. How is it possible that no one can find a job, but can easily find a gun. How is it possible that lil tyrone cant  pass his math test, but can pin point the exact amount of baking soda needed to cut an ounce of cocaine with. You see the life i live is so fucked up, and if i tell police who killed that guy im so fucked up. Im to the point where i dont even care anymore, pull out the 45 and say open this mutherfuckin car door. Im bout to change the way i look, talk, and act something like a dike. And in my hood someone died under every streetlight. Lil-wayne got dreads now you want dreads, lil-wayne got tats now you want tats, lil-wayne got a pircing now you want a pircing. Now you rocking a red flags in front of some crips now you went missing. They are now saying that a black man has no excusses anymore because of our half white, half black president. Just to let yall know thats the blackest the white house is going to get. hell, you might as well go on strike. Ill change my mind when i see a president the color of wesly snipes. They also say that it no longer about skin thats dark. No afence but obama aint put in 12 applications at walmart. I walk out my door with the risk of being shot, my peers wouldnt accept if i said i wanted to be a cop. I stay without shit because im not a damn stealer, aint i cant get a girl cause im not a fucking drug dealer. How am i suppose to live in a world where the wrong thing is wrong, and the right thing is still wrong. Where am i suppose to go when every road is blocked. Ill just do what any man would do i guess. Put this gun to my head and hope for the best. I WISH

    Wow, that was powerful. I see real talent here. If I might make a small suggestion though. the placement of the lnes makes it kind of hard to read. I found myself racing through it cause there are no "stop signs". Other than that, truly impressive.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
