Nasty is the day /
Streets say /
Mother fucker , nigger verbs of play /
School yards they say /
Educated by streets /
Grown insane /
weeds name /
School token for game /
Order givers /
Listen not /
Children's answers /
Tied in knot /
Hang mans note /
Children caught /
College not /
Carpenters ,plumbers sought
To education lost /
Quiting school at what cost /

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.
