Black on good
Touches his manhood
Like a mother should
Thinks it should be in a museum
For God and good
Joey, dreamlike
Always plays it cool
Keeps a gun tucked
Fourteen carat
Sideways dude
Mississippi, likes the rap
Urban cowboy
Got a holster with a flap
Just call me Missi
With an I
The first to die
Deals going down
Going down good
Expansion is the mood
Big time around the bend
Not now but when
Time to ascend
Hit the new den
Death was quick for Missi
With an I
No fast draw
Urban cowboy
Shot in both eyes
Joey heard the scream
Through the dream
Pulled from the tuck
Kill you all
Shot off his balls
Sideways fall
Black on good
Like a brother
Felt their pain
Shot trying to save
Respect
Got his final wish
Passed the Museum to his grave.

Gang bang violence in this poem of shoot em up city life. A fun read with a swaggering flow. Nicely done
All happens in the city.
This one is definitely giving (in the hoods of darkness vibes), I believe the UK is becoming this. A very powerful and very visual piece dear Paul. Maybe it's time to take the streets and the shops back? 🏴
Thinkj the streets have gone now.

Nicely written. Your poem explores themes of violence, brotherhood, and the fleeting nature of life, particularly within a gritty urban setting. It reflects on the struggles of individuals navigating a world filled with danger and their desire for respect amid chaos.
It's a mad world out there.
Paul, this comes in raw and unfiltered…there’s a chaos to it that feels intentional, like it’s meant to hit in fragments rather than flow clean. It leaves an impact. Strong piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Every kid is a gangster now.
