"Neglect" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 13/9/2005

So MANY .... " CLAIM " ...
to ... " Serve and Protect " ... !!!!!

But SHOOT ... INNOCENT Men ...
EIGHT Times ... in their HEAD ... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They would probably say ...

"You are not quite correct,
the young man was shot,
in his shoulder and neck."

THAT Kind of response ....
Just Proves Their .................. " Neglect " .....

Like letting these racists ...
Leave AXES In Heads ... !?!?!?!

Or Leaving ... Black People ...
When FLOOD Waters ... Set ...

and then ... " Coming Back " ...
When THOUSANDS Are ... DEAD ... !!!

Now THOSE WORDS ...
Are FACTUAL ... !!!!!

" Katrina " ...
Was ... NATURAL ...

But Government ... " Actions " ...
Were Making Folks ... " GRAPPLE " ... !!!

People were .... LEFT ............................................
SURROUNDED By ... "DEAD" ... !!!!!

While ... " English Escaped ................................................... ?!?
"Smuggled out" ... by these Snakes ... !!!!!

WHY ... ???

BECAUSE .....................

They FEARED ...
Getting RAPED ... !!!!!
And FEARED The ... ATTACK ...
of Blacks Losing ...................................................................... Faith .............

I'm LOSING Mine ... HERE ... !!!
in this Racist Led ... " Place " ...

US or ... UK ...
The Game ... is the SAME ... !!!!

We SUFFER ............................................ NEGLECT ...
and SO MUCH ............. DISRESPECT .......... !!!!!

From Places of ... " Work " ...
Where we're ...
TREATED Like ....................................................................... DIRT ..... !?!

To Walking ... " The Streets " ...
Where we're treated like ... MEAT ... !!!!!

We're moving in ... " CIRCLES " ...
AGAIN and ... AGAIN ... !!?!!

Malicious and VICIOUS ... !!!!!

How can we ... MAINTAIN ... ?!?

A Sense of ... " What's Right " ...
When CONSTANTLY ... "drained" ... !!!

" Drained of " ... Good Things ...
To FEED to ... Our Brain ...

Do you see what i'm saying ... ???

We Suffer ... NEGLECT ...
In ... SO MANY Ways ... !!!!!

TRY Showing ... RESPECT ...
and we'll be ... Less Upset ...

How can it be ... " FAIR " ... ?
to HOLD ... "ALL THE SHARES" ... !?!?!

Shareholders ... DON'T CARE ...
About Our ... " Welfare " ... !!!

But ...

Look at ... " ZIMBABWE " ...
You'd Better ... BEWARE ... !!!

Is Robert Mugabe ...
So Different to ... " Blair " ... ???

Don't Give THIS ... THAT LOOK ...
I Figured You'd ... STARE ... !!!!! ...

The Bombings in ... London ...
Have left Asians ... SCARED ... !!!!

Some Black People TOO ...

But ...
What About ... " YOU " ... ???

White Folks seem to me ...
to be living life ... " Cool " ...
because the ... " Police " ...
AREN'T DISTURBING ........................... " Their Peace " ...... !!!!!

But ...
I've had them do that ....
on my ... " Local Streets " ...

Because .....
I am ... Driving ...
A NICE ... " Mercedes " ... !!!!!

Well
NOT FOR ... Much Longer.

Cos' ...
While we see ... FLOODS ...
and people in ... HUNGER ...

Driving ... That Car ...
May make me go ... " under " ... ?!?

Work is ... A JOKE ... !!!
Most People Are ... BROKE ...

" Credit Card " ... Living ...
or Selling The ... " Coc' " ... !!!

Like Marvin said people ...

" What is Going On ? " ...

Our leaders are ... " feeble " ...
and KEEP Doing ... WRONG ... ?!!!?

Our Children grow ... " weak " ...
So WHO Will be ... " STRONG " ... ?!?
and STOP The ... " Production " ...
of ... ALL of These ... " BOMBS " ... !?!

Nature's ...
Now Sending ...
REGULAR ... Warnings ... !!!

It could be YOU ... " Mourning " ...
Instead of just ... " YAWNING " ... !!!!!

I Hope I'm NOT ... " Boring " ...
But This Is ... " My Calling " ...

to ......
Show Those with ... " Vision " ...

My ... Lyrical Mission ...
is NOT About ... " ME " ...
or ... " Nice Poetry " ...

I'm Really ... APPEALING ...
For MORE ... " UNITY " ... !!!

White and Black
.........  and .........
Male or ... Female

It's NOT About ... Sex ...
or Cashing Those ... Cheques ...

It IS About ... THIS ... !!!!!

A ... REALITY CHECK ...
Before we ... end up ...
with NO-ONE to ... " Protect " ...

cos' RIGHT NOW ...
WE NEED to ... STOP

ALL This ....

....... " Neglect " .......
