This summer I took some chances while listening to Chance the Rapper because I liked the beat
But listened to Kendrick when I wanted some street poetry
Some urban poetry
From poets who grew up in suburban towns with an urban state of mind
Born into the place I despise.
Growing in the green,
not seeing what could be.
Suffocating siblings,
pets galore,
always wanting more.
His shoulders are square;
But they are not shoulders.
They are the sharp corners
Of heavily bound volumes
Whose covers are pristine.
Full-grown Harlem lady
Eyes as black as night
If caught in a situation
Her decision would be right
Full-grown Harlem lady
Welcomes every child
If one makes a wrong decision
They will be reconciled
Let us lift that burden off our shoulders
And stand straight and tall.
We are and always will be
perfectly imperfect.
Aren’t all heroes simply the sort of people we live with everyday?
Before she even rested, it’s time to face the world again.
Some days she wonders: How many others fabricate their grins?
She takes a deep breath of air, and heads out to see what awaits.
After all, curiosity is always one of a hero’s best traits.
