Bobbing for Berries

a body was found in a minivan
parked in a alley on 5th and Grand
I seen him before on Rosecrans
he looked familiar to me
 in the back of the ambulance
somebody shot him in the face
and pulled down
his pants
he must have been a trick
got jacked by some retched chick
he been there so long the smell
will make you sick
these are crimes that happen all the time
 around the way and down the line
better stay off the track chances
are you may not make it back
fools never learn it's too late
when you're getting burned
holla at God for me you dummy
I made this sound funny but really
it's a damn shame this guy got
killed and robbed coz he wanted
a slob on the knob
I guess there's nothing wrong
he had a wife and 5 kids at home
now they crying coz he gone
they want him back at home
last time I heard there was no
investigation into his murder
another case closed unsolved
just a dead man name Bob

Nice work wizedom. A sad ending with an even sadder reality. We see these things all too well and often. Thanks for sharing.
