“Existence: In the Danger Zone…

Pestilence is violence
Penetrating the sound barrier, a symphony of shots and sirens
Bold soldiers become casualties to the asphalt battlegrounds
As fear reigns as a tyrant, within a clip lies my only reliance
Made to be one with the weapon: I will remain defiant
Ceased vocality: Cries turn into silence

Forced to avenge: Projecting angst, aiming to puncture the soul
An extension to an infliction of infinite potential damage: Just precisely what I hold
Existence in the danger zone: Survival is a gamble with all bets scattered on the table, and the wage is on

Resistance is a science
Temptation is a giant
Adhering to the laws of war: To murder is compliance”

This poem really did touch me, as I grew up in a fairly poor, and crime-affilated part of my city-as this artist is speaking about(to my assumptions).
