"decomposing fruits"
  by the h.


(((i'ma keep it real, i don't give a damn bout
a rating nor a comment with this piece.
i'd prefer that you take the time to understand
the thought.)))

rotting fruits
decomposing by the garbage
rotting fruits
spilling vital juices all over the concrete
rotting fruits

......tossed into broken windows......

decomposing inside abandoned houses
off the branches of life
the anathemas of society, sickens me
strange fruits
on sale for any price, be it drugs on the corner

......a piece of ass, a carat mined by......

enslaved children, nikes made at 69 cent
at a sweatshop in the honduras
a senseless argument, sowing additional seeds
in the asphalt

......dna remaining domant. the panoramic views of......

a life once vibrant, is being viewed at a wake at 6 pm
these rotting fruits
victims of sociopathic sadists, the old candyman
seducing them with now and laters

......they rot, lying bloody from the waist down......

asphyxia and bruisings round her throat
victims of imitating art
seducing them with the american dream
nino brown n'd stringer bell caught one in the
chest respectively

......they rot, twitching on the limb that holds life......

victims of the domestic hand
they rot, no nutrients to feed the root
no hydration the refresh & irrigate the seeds

......they rot, chained and caged like......

animals, succumbing inside, sprawled amongst the
shit and piss
they rot, sheltered in placentas, only to
be given life and left to die in the garbage can

they rot...the 50's emmitt till
they rot...the 60's four little girls in a baptist
church in birmingham

they rot...the 70's children found with needles in their arms
they rot...the 80's the atlanta child murders

they rot...the 90's after-effects of the crack war of 85
the undetected presence of hiv

they rot...the misfirings of piss poor marksmenship
babygirl ain't have a chance
lil man ain't have a chance

spiritual bodyguard
cloak & protect these children,
walk with these children
save our children

(c)january15th muzak
free your mind, fuck e'rythang else
