"Planes, Trains & Automobiles" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 10/8/2005

Taking The Train ...
Is ... NOT Quite The Same ...
 
Cos' I'm Now A DANGER ...
In ... IDIOTS Brains' ... !!!
 
Time And AGAIN ...
It's The OLD ... " Same Ol' Same " ... !!!!!
 
People Look AT ME As If I'm To BLAME ... ?!?
For Things That Have Happened ...
On ... London Tube Trains ... ?!?
 
How STUPID They Are ... !?!?!
They're Walking INSANE ... !!!
 
Why Sit And Judge Me ...
With Notions So LAME ... ?!?
 
So How About ... PLANES ... ???
WELL The Games Are The Same ... !!!
 
The VISION of ... ME ...
Puts PRESSURE ON Veins ...  
Cos' Passengers CLEARLY ...
AREN'T GLAD That I Came ... !!!!!
 
ONCE And For ALL ...
Let's Get This Thing CLEAR ... !!!!!!
 
If A Bomb ... HITS ...
You And I WILL BE Blown To B I T S ... !!!!!
 
Maybe THEN You'll BELIEVE ...
I'm NOT The ... CULPRIT ... !!!!!!!!
 
I Like A Plane Ride ...
But These Days I'm AIR SICK ... !!!!!!
SICK of THE GLARES ... !!!
And ... COWARDLY Stares ... !!!
 
SICK of Police ...
Stopping Me EVERYWHERE ... !!!
 
From Planes To Trains To Automobiles ...
Oh And Just For You ... " BADMAN " ...
That Word Means ... " My WHEELZ' " ... !!!
 
What Is The Deal ... ?!?
With Police And Our Wheels ...
 
Why Do They TRY ...
To Make EVERY Black Feel ...
As Though Being Black ...
Means That We Should REVEAL ...
 
"How We Have Paid For,
Our Nice Fancy Wheels ?"
 
SOME Brothers ... "STEAL" ...
To Drive FANCY Wheels ....  
But THAT ISN'T Me ... !!!
 
So Just LEAVE ME BE ... !!!!!
STOP ... HARASSING Me ...  
On .... EVERY STREET .... !!!!!
 
SEE ... Here's The Dilemma ...  
We Face From Police ... !?!?!?!
 
Laugh If You Like ...  
But This ISN'T Funny ... !!!
 
If We Drive ... BEAT UP Wheels ...
We're Gonna Get STOPPED ... !!!
 
If We Drive ... FANCY Wheels ...
We're Gonna Get STOPPED ... !?!
 
So ... Is There A Car ...
That WON'T Get Us STOPPED ...  
By These ... IGNORANT Cops ... ?!?!?!?
 
The Answer Is ... " Simple " ...
 
OF COURSE BLOODY NOT .... !!!!!!
 
They'll Just KEEP ON Coming .................................
And That's Just ... " Our Lot " ...
 
They're On ... AUTO PILOT ...
And ... Act Like Robots ...
 
They've TRIED It With Me ...
And QUICKLY Got SHOCKED ... !!!
 
I DON'T Need A Gun ...
Cos' My Brain's ALWAYS COCKED ... !!!
And Ready To HIT THEM ...
With LOGIC Like SPOCK ... !!!!!
 
Put THEM ON THE SPOT ...
And Watch How They ... " PLOT " ... !!!
 
To STICK Something ON YOU ....
Just Like ... " SUPERGLUE " ... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Sometimes It AIN'T Easy ...
To KEEP YOURSELF ... " Cool " ... !!!
 
So These Are Some Words ...
Just For The ... Black Youth ...
 
DON'T GIVE THEM A REASON
TO TRY IT WITH YOU !!!
 
KEEP Yourself ... LEGAL ...
Fly HIGH Like An EAGLE ... !!!
 
KEEP Tabs On Their Movements ...
Use Logic That's .... LETHAL .... !!!
 
Play The ... " NICE GUY " ...
But NEVER Be .... "shy" ........
To Tell Them Some TRUTH ...
When You KNOW That YOU'RE RIGHT ... !!!!!!
 
Get ... GOOD Legal Help ...
When DUD CARDS Are Dealt ...
And CHILL In The Courtroom ...
As Their STORIES ... M e l t ..................................
 
These ARE Some Words ...
On Which You SHOULD Dwell ...............................
 
"YOUR HONOUR HE FELL !
AND DIED IN HIS CELL !"
 
These Are Some Words ...
That Leave A ... FOUL SMELL ... !!!
 
In Those Who Have LOVED YOU ...
So PLEASE HEED Them WELL ... !!!
 
Cos' These Are The Things ...
They're ... TRYING To Do ...
 
PRESSURE Black Youth ...  
Into Making WRONG MOVES ... !!!
 
These Are TRUE THINGS ...
And That's On The REAL ... !!!
 
Whether On .............
 
" Trains or Plains
or in Automobiles " ...
