A Brooklyn Poem

Say, yo!...Wuz up?
See my 'homies"?
I'll take a' cup
Of dat dare cofee stuf,
Long as it got whiskey
I'd bee happie shore enuff,

Acrostic? Who dat be?
Sum kinna' medicine?
Cinquin? Who dat dare,
U troow around dem big ol' woords,

I cant evan spill,
Iz gittin' me a complex,
Oh, what da hell...
So shoe me howe brite you iz,
An' I'll due de same to u,
That's all I gooottta say,
Cause I tink I be thru.
