hip-hop poet gets his ass kicked.............

Post by WIREMAN » April 29th, 2006, 8:44 am

............on hollins st. last night round about 9 pm........me & cj were just settling in to watch memoirs of a geisha when i heard voices louder than usual down on the street......a young man was spilling out rhyme somewhat dissing the drug dealers who were by this time assembled around him 2 floors beneath me.......he was going on hitting all the right spots in a flowing rhyme that had this wired man's attention......then he finished & that's when one of the dealers laid his rap on the young poet.....in a gruff profanity laced rhyming tirade he told the poet what the deal is and to mind his own buisiness.....period..... end of subject....
that's when the idealistic poet went into another of his raps...needless to say all hell broke loose and the dealers jumped on him....they knocked him down after a short defensive struggle
and commenced to kicking on him right there in the middle of hollins st.............they told him to never ever come around here talking that stupid shit as he got away and headed up carrollton street....
just another night in the hood....................
me I feel like I'm becoming some kinda Kung fu t.v. Priest.....

I need to google definition, but that is the first word to pop to mind on reading.
