Handling

Speaking of handling fire arms
Its equal opportunity.  
We’re not funny like that  
Different location  
With different connotations  
Per capita 
Survival, hunting, sporting  
Showcasing, impressing,  
Faction of visibility/survival  
Heading off heartless  
Ways of the world  
Let me get somebody  
Before they get me,  
Heading off social classes  
That rejected whoever  
Mad about gym shoes
Fila is what sticks out clearly
We’re old, old enough anytime I can  
Remember the first    
Official major city street gang..  
Withholding that name though..  
Sounds like a cuddly    
But uh…  
Bullying wasn’t such a concept but  
Gangs were and its like this here  
Some people get a problem  
And you would never really know  
And other people get a problem  
And the whole world knows,  
Some people go through smoother  
Some people not so much,  
Some of my home girls whatever color  
Black, Latina, white  
They didn’t have no problems  
It didn’t go that way for me (5/6 different hs) but….  
The context is not so neatly packaged so  
We’ll skip this one  
And how did I make it to type this one up?  
Still a few more stories of morale and historical accounts  
Under the sleeve but enough memoir;  
Changing up the format now.
