Catch the Crew Rhymin'

The last poem I ever wrote dated 08.19.90:

I don't want to cry and yell
But we all must realize
Now's the time for show and tell
It's time to dry our eyes -

FIGHT BACK! against brutality
Ignorance and fear
Nightmares aren't reality
We need to make that clear -

No longer victims of the truth
We show we know what's right
Give the doubters all our proof
Then they'll join us to fight -

Empathy will tower above
And dark despair shall cease
For God smiles down on those who love
And the world will shine in peace.

Yeah right. What the f*ck was I smoking?
