State Of Disgrace

By Malcholm Dark

Drug deals--take-overs
Money laundering--excess
High fashion--fine cars
Living large--living me
Gangster!

The playgrounds--my grounds
The children--drug dealers
The neighborhoods--my neighborhoods
The killings--control and respect
Monster!

Drink the bourbon, smoke the cocaine
Reap the whirl-wind with much to gain.
So many scented women in black lace
Ascension with style, a state of disgrace.

My enemies--my friends
Dirty cops--rival gangs
More wars--more killings
More bourbon--more cocaine
Paranoid!

Undercover--FBI/DEA
My epiphany--my down fall
Kill'em all--kill'em now
Life in prison--life for me
Convict!

Too much bourbon, too much cocaine
Reap the whirl-wind with nothing to gain
Too many scented women in black lace
Declension and denial, a state of disgrace.

This felt seedy in a way that made my skin crawl. That type of environment is sadly sustainable though with massive internal collapse, but who will it bring down and destroy in the process? A wicked cycle and interesting read.
