Knowhut’msayin’?
Last night,
two African-American youths
beat up my friends
and divested them
of their money
bus tickets
and cigarettes
not to mention
half a roll
of Tums,
even though my friends
told them:
’Look, man--
we’re as poor as you,
and we're not the ones
who fucked you over.′
This incident doesn’t
dissolve my esteem
for the African-American
Community
still,
why’s a
nigga
gotta BE
that way?
