A Tale From da Hood - A Short Story

CATEGORY

just different

Views: 76

I once knew a girl
called Mary
    
    not the one with the lamb
    but that contrary broad

             She had this thing
       for a dude called Jack
        
        not Jill’s man
        and definitely not
            that daffy dude
        
        who sold his cow
        for a handful of beans


    she had spasms
    for that nimble fella
    the pyromaniac who liked
                     playing with fire
           

        t h i s   s o c i o p a t h


        was doing this other freak
        called Snow
        
            little did he know
           she was just a little ho

                  from around da way
        doing seven other dudes
         

        s h e  w a s   a   f r e a k  .  .  !
        

    she was friends
    with this other chick

                              Cindy . .

who was having
a real hard time at home

    Cindy was a good girl
    but her  b i t c h a s s  father
    
    gone hook up
    with this golddigger floosie
    after his wife ran off with some
                                      uptown dyke
             

    let me paint this fuh y'all . .
    

Ah heard someone saying                    
that Cindy's dad died of an overdose

                   but everybody in da hood
                    know what really happen
    

'c a u s e  .  .

        The only thing that golddigger
        brought to the hook up
        
        was two skank daughters
                  and an open mouth
        
        and amongst them
        they made Cindy’s life
                          a living hell
                 

They lived up the block from
this old pro on welfare

        who lived in a shoe
        and had a whole slew
                     of badass kids

        all were destined
        to become gangbangers

and each one o' dem
ADHD future psychopaths
        had a different daddy

not that y'all need to know that
                         but ah just saying . .


        Oh . .  before I continue
        

        did I tell y'all that Mary
                 the contrary chick
              
         grew mushrooms and weed  .  ?

        
             y e a h   b a b y  .  .

        
        the chick was dealing on the side
        she called herself a gardener

        I guess ya can call yourself
                    anything these days
                 

            b a c k   t o   M a r y  .  .


which one . . ?
            
The one who loves farm animals . .

                                Yeah that one . !

the one with the pet lamb
            

well as it turns out
that lamb really belonged
                          to her man
               
                he knew one day
                it was gonna be a sheep

          ya get muh driff . . ?


            Her man was this little perv
            also called Jack

                             seems as though
                 there were a lot of Jacks
         living in this neighbourhood


    This little perv
    would sit in a corner
    and play with his thingy
        
            and extol its virtues
            and how he was a good dude
        

    H o w e v e r  .  .
    
    one day some serious mess
    jumped off in the neighbourhood
                     involving Jack and Mary

            
            which ones  .    ?

            All of Dem  .  .  !
            

    These are some seriously
    disturbed people

                                       anyway
        let me continue the story
   

        SUMMER BLOCK PARTY .  !


        and everyone’s there
        Snow’s stepmom showed up
        she calls herself  "Queen"
        

        guess who she came with   ?
        

            Y'all wouldn’t guess
            in a million years  .  !
        

                             The evil witch
        showed up with her posse       

        Cindy’s two stepsisters and                    stepmother

       a psycho chick called "Reds"
                   who used to be cool

        until one day
        she went to visit nana

        and caught nana in
        s o m e  f r e a k y  d i c k y  s h i t

       some dude called "Wolffe"
                      was eating nana

            the traumatic experience
            messed Reds up real good

     she's never been the same since
            

                    but da main  b i t c h
                    was this old battle axe
                    who used to sell apples
                    downtown back in da day
                          
            until she got busted
             for trying to poison
                   a couple people
            
                       did some time
                       now she’s out
        
            riding shotgun fuh Queen
        

            aint that sumtin  .  !  ?
            

Well boys and girls . .

        Queen and her posse
        rolled up in the block party
        and started making trouble

f i r s t  .  .

        they tried to rob Mary
        outta some loot
        
                  they knew contrary Mary
                                        was dealing
                    
            so they tried to rob da woman
        
            but contrary Mary
            got a tipoff from Jill
        

    remember Jill  . . .  Jack’s woman . ?

            
             anyhow contrary Mary
             was waiting on dem fools
        
                               and shot one of
                           Cindy’s stepsisters
                             square in the ass
                         
 
        there was gunshots
        all over the block party
        

            people was diving for cover
            

            they even shot up da koolaid
                         and da chicken wings
                    

Old Reverend Pastor
just stood there praying fuh peace
         as though he was bulletproof
     
    until a bullet bounced off a rim
       and passed through the bible
                   he was preaching from
               
            never seen someone
            who believe in god
             scramble so fast
             
             Reverend Pastor
             dive under da DJ table
             
                     he was praying so hard
      one could swear he was Muslim

               late as usual
        
     n o b o d y   s a w   n o t h i n g

        
        w e l l  .  .

        Queen and her girls
        left the party soon after that

                                  'cause word is . .

        contrary Mary and her crew
                       looking fuh they ass

    
   while all that was going on


    Jack rolled up unannounced
    looking fuh his woman

                           and found Jill
          twerkin on some dude
          

       Jack almost blow a fuse
       

c a u s e  .  .

    Jill was a fine looking
    filly from Philly
    
    with a ghetto booty
            that didn’t quit
    
               and every old G
              and young buck
          was trying to hit it


         Jack stepped to Dude
           and a big knife fight
                             broke out
                       
        it was like
        a old pirate movie

    they end up
    stabbing each other
                           over Jill
              

        and she just stood there
        and watch as the ambulance
        took her man and dude away
        

and as soon as the ambulance
was outta sight

        Jill was seen
        messing with another dude
                                  named Peter
        whose daddy
        had a pumpkin farm upstate

                                   ain’t this Jill
                              a piece o’ work . . ?

            
Well folks . . .

       had da shivers for . ! ?
     

    turns out
    Nimble boy had a cousin
                     twice removed      

       on his mother’s side

    from the downtown Sprats

                  but a bad diet
                unemployment
                         bad credit

    and was pimping his wife

                              to top it off
                     he was shagging
         every ole ho in da hood

    ya would think a divorce
    woudda been a better option
    
                than trying to kill
                that poor woman

            
a n y w a y   .  .

    Sprat now doing time
                      in Sing Sing

        it just goes to show
        you can’t trust anybody
        

        Nimble boy say
        they ain’t related  .  !
        

        but that too
        is another story
        for another time
