BOBBY JOE
The phone rings !
Its Jeff...
great disdain from his voice,
bad news !
Bobbys dead !
I jump up
I say wtf happened?
where's everyone at ?
have you talked to Fred
we're calling him now
now my face is red
I put clothes on quick
after I jumped up
from out of my bed.
inside saying to myself is this a bad dream.
but no it was murder
I still can't believe what was just said
tears of disbelief I feel for the family and Fred
how could something like this be
a child so young
like millions of wasps aimed
and all at once they just stung
like this right here is fucked
a brother lost by gun
I remember us all as kids
skating playing under the sun
my condolences Ronnie!
no mother should. ever
bury their son
the one who stole your son
against I wanted revenge
I bought the gun for me I wanted revenge on the one responsible I wanted revenge
couldn't think of much else at the time
but I let it be karma has its ways
no disgrace Ronnie said !
no disgrace in bobby joes name
in his name my youngest son
now we live out our days
live them out one by one
sadly another poem Ive wrote
for one gone that passed on too soon
onto where
what place
I don't know
but it's a golden place filled with mansions
where those cathedrals house the faithful
gold lines the streets
and squirrels are playful
where gods children play
and the saved are forever thankful
restored with rest
my soul now replenished in peace
I now walk through the valley in the shadow of death
a place filled with harmony
this blessed brother, son ,nephew ,
the best .
good lil brother nothin more ,
not a damn thing less
I'm walking
about to y'all's house
someone standing alone
its fred
we walk to each other
give each other a hug no words we said
the silence breaks
he says my lil brother is dead
I say what the fuck happened
where's your mom at
she's inside with Cassie
holding it...
