Watching night step-sitters staring at each passerby abiding time as if counting sheep stepping with the city's cadence Hearing sirens alarming in their BEWARE BLARING; persistent fearfulness for evil and citizens securities Staring-walking-bodies searching a barren land prostrating before the great needle Patched streets and decaying sidewalks by flooding night lights lay surreal DECAYING fingers of poverty playing its fingers into every crack, crevice; into every pore, into every cell member into one's whole being Sounding the hip-hop generation street corners of hustlers jiving away the night The hustled and hustlers' overwhelming struggling for power; being surrounded by red brick and stone; being  incased in poverty Pounding city hysteria; at times laying silent in sleepless depth by the waning gradualness; anytime readying itself to ERUPT

City ShAmBleS A hip-hop poem
Watching night step-sitters staring at each passerby abiding time as if counting sheep stepping with the city's cadence Hearing sirens alarming in their BEWARE BLARING; persistent fearfulness for evil and citizens securities Staring-walking-bodies searching a barren land prostrating before the great needle Patched streets and decaying sidewalks by flooding night lights lay surreal DECAYING fingers of poverty playing its fingers into every crack, crevice; into every pore, into every cell member into one's whole being Sounding the hip-hop generation street corners of hustlers jiving away the night The hustled and hustlers' overwhelming struggling for power; being surrounded by red brick and stone; being  incased in poverty Pounding city hysteria; at times laying silent in sleepless depth by the waning gradualness; anytime readying itself to ERUPT
