POEM | STREET FIGHTER BLUES

STREET FIGHTER BLUES
a poem by blackopscharlie 1120211 © blackopscharlie.com

sorrow… down the hole you go
careful…the depth surprising
where you will go
fight or flight bring it tight
far beyond, serious fright

red bill, blue pill
all is good
in hollywood
this ain’t the strip

miss shanghai
luv2cu
poppi high
brandi getting thigh

rolling, cruisen
lost daughters
in the caribbean

9 high
the mile wide
spreadn’
on the side

your back at the crib
spoon fed, baby bib
i’ll sling your shoulder
burn you till you’re older

i’ll draw you a road map
silly slap
oh, tap, tap
come back on you
krack kak kak
boom bat

now come sail with me
into the dark

sail

About blackopscharlie

ARTIST | POET | WRITER I seek out connections that otherwise are not connected...because they are connected. I want to share those connections. I believe in speaking up for the truth because despite the miss application of relativity, it does exist. I find myself growing intolerant of complacency and find it as problematic as the perpetrators who prey on their victims. The idea of “just getting along” because “everyone is flawed” in the name of peace ultimately ends in oppression of those in need. I believe in defending the weak, helping the poor, encouraging those in need and that the ideology of postmodern pop culturalism has lost it’s way because it denies there is a way. I enjoy growing and building things. I want to make a difference by finding value in what I do. I choose to believe in possibility. I'm a zealot looking for a cause.

  1. This aint the strip…

    Love this shit, bro. Moments are funny. I just checked out a yahoo story on “the most spoiled kids in the world”. Millionaire and billionaire children wearing $2,800 worth of clothes, making splashes at red carpet events, lagooning in their 300 million dollar yachts – Jesus, you know how many homes you can buy with that – chillin’ for the paparazzi to show their teenage faces thinking they know, oh yeah, we know. No, mutherfucker, you don’t know. When you leave the strip, guess what. This aint the strip no more. I see lack of perspective. I see gross overload. I see moderation wasted. I see standards made obsolete. But the street fighter? Shit, Mike Tyson said it best. Ain’t nobody scared… till you punch them in the face.

    • thank you my brother. all too real…yet nothing but fake. a distorted view through the eyes of privilege that was never earned and colored by lenses of an unsatisfiable greed for more convinced they are entitled.
