Dilemma of a Crip (Free verse) by Ninoy_Instigator
What am I to do.
Gangbangers, busters, and killers
We were a ruthless gang
They are a living remnant of my past
Back in the day, when I was a thriller.
We were the Crips, the toughest gang
No need to be discrete
Pistols sounded every week
I would fight without worry
I'd spit in the name of the street
Domain was most important
The human ego is morbid
If you saw a blood member
Or a non-crip C-Walkin'
He was as good as dead
But I have a huge dilemma,
Towards Crips, people have anger
I have something more important
Someone I care about
I can't put my baby in danger.
I must abandon my old friends
They mean nothing but trouble
The streets are polluted
Enemies seem tougher
Gangbangin' is forever a struggle.
