Ghetto Defendant |
| HUNGRY DARKNESS OF LIVING |
| WHO WILL THIRST IN THE PIT? |
| SHE SPENT A LIFETIME DECIDING |
| HOW TO RUN FROM IT |
| ONCE FATE HAD A WITNESS |
| AND THE YEARS SEEMED LIKE FRIENDS |
| HER BABIES CAN DREAM |
| BUT DREAMS BEGIN LIKE THE END |
| GHETTO DEFENDANT |
| IT IS HEROIN PITY |
| NOT TEAR GAS NOR BATON CHARGE |
| THAT STOPS YOU TAKING THE CITY |
| WALLED OUT OF THE CITY |
| CLUBBED DOWN FROM UPTOWN |
| SPRAYED PEST FROM THE NEST |
| RUN OUT TO BARRIO TOWN |
| FORCED TO WATCH AT THE FEAST |
| THEN SWEEP UP THE NIGHT |
| FLIPPED PIECES OF COIN |
| EXCHANGED FOR BIRTHRIGHT |
| THE GHETTO PRINCE OF GUTTER POETS |
| WAS BOUNCED OUT OF THE ROOM |
| BY THE BODYGUARDS OF GREED |
| FOR DISTURBING THE TOMB |
| HIS WORDS LIKE FLAMETHROWERS |
| BURNT THE GHETTOS IN THEIR CHESTS |
| HIS FACE WAS PAINTED WHITER |
| AND HE WAS LAID TO REST |
| SOAP FLOODS OIL IN WATER |
| ALL CHURN IN THE WAKE |
| ON THE GREAT SHIP OF PROGRESS |
| THE CREW CAN’T FIND THE BRAKE |
| KLAXONS ARE BLARING |
| THE ADMIRAL SNORES COMMAND |
| SUBMARINES BOIL IN OCEANS |
| WHILE THE ARMIES FIGHT WITH SUNS |
