Flawed Gems

Contributed by BRONZEN on Saturday, 17th June 2006 @ 04:49:24 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Tender and innocent they walk they dont creep
not a care in the world
their souls they dont pray to the Lord to keep

Their homes is used for their slumbering place
the streets has taught them its respect to show
their face

School is not an option anymore
the corners has become their history books
Absorbing poisonous substances
as it enter their brain as its cozy little nook

Their minds left dazed and confused while their
conscious masked by inferiority
wondering around trying to find something to
get into

The life of crime they tend to fanshion
with innocence bleeding from their mouth
while their eyes still reading beware of caution


Flawed gems once a gift and so priceless
now ruled by the weapon of steel
is where they find their solace

Tender and innocent they walk
where concern does not creep in,
and pray not for the lord to keep them.

There homes are places of slumber,
and the streets jungle lessons
make for thick skins, terrible hunger.

No institutions are tolerated in
the shadowed corners, and all
the text die as dreams

At the heavy hands of chemical voodoo.
Inferiority masks the minds, and Suddenly
there is no place to get to.

crime beckons with gutter dollar fingers
as innocent bleeds from wounded mouths,
and they eyes are still with caution.

Questions go begging as the flawed
gems make dictators from steel weapons,
and the solace found bears a parallel cold.

Come; The earth turns, the sky is blanc,
and god has given us everything,
everything.


Hows that?
you're welcome,
black.

Ps- sorry for the spelling error. Sometimes I am bamboozled by subjunctives.
