Sockball

This planet is
a sock ball sensation
a kick in the teeth, a shank in the dark

Cardboard ghettos built on top of each other
vultures circling the road kill beneath
orphans scrounging dumpsters to live

Another wink, another trip
A Lion King Disney
A night on the town

A Broadway excursion
You give me the money,
I'll tell you the lie

My continent, on the other hand, is
hell on a billboard
a girl of 11 packing a rod

Pedro Escobar, in memory of...
Drugs and illicit
Let's get it on
