What Could Be Worst. Poem by tyrone allen

What could be worst? A bus hitting little children playing in the street
or a rapist meeting a child and midnight is when they meet.

What could be worst? The devil get thirsty and blood is his thirst or a old man is lost and soon it is getting dark.

What could be worst? A pretty girl turning you down or getting locked up because your skin is brown.

Ask me, what is worst? Being scared because more black and Latino males fill up most of the city jails or stuck in a cage because you can not make bail.

Life is dilapidated to the point of no return. Will humanity ever learn. Tell me. What is Worst?

Not knowing your path or Separated from your past.

Knowing the true intent of this world and why it won't last.

What could be worst not getting in the gates and burning in hell or life itself you can not complete, so you become lost in time like the holy grail.

What is worst? than being put in a school where there is no obligation to study or read. The face of the world, look down on our ancestor seed.

What could be worst? Writing this poem and scared to grow old or looking in my heart and finding a downcast soul.
