Project Mop

i clean dirt after dirt
from gunshot wounds
which left puddles of blood
where my homeboys 
was hurt
come and lerk
to infant rooms 
where diapers 
were found on 
the ground smudge... 
i can change your smirk
come with me
to stair ways 
where grim don't budge
but i bet for a dime
you can find someone 
to call up... 
 
i clean up throw up
after party's that 
lasted from night to 
morning 
bacardi sipping 
one had to much 
and forgot the target...
project mop ain't to much 
of a job that i can't handle....
