Central Junction Poem by Walterrean Salley

Central Junction



Central Junction on the Westside
Was where I got my start.
There, off Highway 80,
My life was to embark.

In a sleepy little shanty,
'Twas my family and I.
We were very, very poor;
As poor as Poor Man's Pie.

But with such an humble start,
Where could life have led?
The hidden twists and turns
Laid in the road ahead.
