Array ( [sid] => 25858 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => NYC God Damn! [time] => 2003-10-27 11:40:24 [hometext] => Not sure what this should be catagorized as? Just venting [bodytext] => Now I’m no Nina Simone
But I sure as hell can blow
Blow your mind
With the inner hypocrisies placed
On You and Me
In NYC God Damn!

Due you see 3 a day
That’s the magic number
The newspapers, the TV
Don’t even show us our soldiers anymore
So, that we don’t see the faces of
Discrepancy and War

3 a day DIE

It seems magically so are we…

Our rights
Don’t you see?

Bloomberg, won’t get a mayor from me
We the people cannot smoke
Maybe he needs a tote
Calm his high-strung ass

Puff, Puff - pass

Pass on the hypocrisy

Pass on the Ghettopoly
This insanity

Have we become so callous?
That we don’t see
So obnoxious

This Bling, Bling society
Wiping away our middle class
Killing our babies souls

Condemning us to
NYC God Damn!

I love this site and this poem. It's nice to see that people are politically aware of the ongoing bull***** we circum to.

Stay aware Edubs!!! And thank you for sharing...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
