People born a fool
Talking of white black pink or blue
hell they don't know you
What of their manner
All this slander
What of the old lady
Who lived in a shoe
What color the boot
the colors of all of you
Riots in all lands
All but garbage cans
Don't know what I'm saying
To busy playing
You all of that a disgrace
Calling yourself
A human race

About Me
- Jimmy J.
- Poetry, what is it? A poet what is that? I doubt its me ! To me poetry is a word description of life. No matter a good or bad life only the truth of life. A poet can only truly describe a life he lives or has lived. One can not write about drug addiction, gangs, violence, and despair if he or she has not dwelled there. I write things I feel because I have been there, done that and know what many people feel because I feel it. What effects the young today effected the old yesterday. Nothing really has changed when it comes to poverty. I write about black and white issues because I feel neither black nor white, because I refuse to wear color of skin. I write about the young because I never grew up. I write about the old because the years added up.
