Lifetime

Head on tight
But can't say without fright
Area was dilapidated and infiltrated
With those who had been intimidated
By society's standards
And their commanders
The one's who dictate laws and regulate interactions
But can they really be faulted
For the young apprentice that was assualted
At the same time the forest green turned to dusty brown
When the side of his lifeless face fell to the concrete ground?

Fingers refer to more than 200 years
But that is not why my eyes are inundated with tears
Providers of the young
Would prefer that they play out in the sun
Than study in home and get SOME book smarts
While the adults ask idiotic questions and state asinine remarks
WHAT? That's not your child!?
SOOOOOO, why are you videotaped saying, "Don't bring ya a** home if you lose"
Right......in the middle.....of the crowd!?

Oh okay. Maybe it's in your DNA.
Like roadkill has rabies
The Hispanics make babies and
The Chinese choose suicide
If the parents are unrealistically not satisfied.
No, not being racist or anti-semitic
Just trying to make the pressing social issues embedded
In your mind
So that with time
We can prevent
Another unnecessarily tragic incident
