Fallen Poets

[LorettaYoung]

Hi Jimmy: there are some good lines here and I really like the timing. "Fists rose as tears fell"; history if full of those times. I have one question; I am assuming that the cause of Biggie and Pac's death
was related to the harsh life of which you show so well. Loretta[/b]

I cried when Biggie and Pac died.
I just lied
lying about their lives. I don't see why you need lying after lies; it also interrupts the sound
Looking at the stars
reciting their bars. Is this slang for poetry?
No longer safe within cars.
Thug life.
Drug life.
Slug strife.
Solemnly slain soldiers.
Fists rose as
tears fell.
Compton and Bed-Stuy bled becoming
bicoastal battlegrounds.
"Dear Mama where is Big Poppa?"
My mother wept
and played Billie Holiday
in honor of streets disciples
from every corner
in thugs mansion.
