Lara Wash Poet Rhyme

Zip Code

Zip Code
Contaminated water
For a few more dollars
Immoral power

Zip Code
Red Zone
No loans
Where are the politicians with a backbone?

Zip Code
Confrontation
Discrimination
Forced incrimination

Zip Code
Dirty streets
Vociferous beats
Too shallow to be deep

Zip Code
Higher prices
Thinner slices
This is a major crisis

Zip Code
High unemployment
Super high rent
What! It’s just a misprint?

Zip Code
Clean streets
Cushioned seats
But they're only for the elite

Zip Code
There’s no injustice
They’re reading books by Augustus
And there’s no need for buses

Zip Code
Prime steaks
Juicy grapes
And clear lakes

Zip code
Well lit stores
Carpeted floors
And Bellhops opening doors

Zip Code
For the poor
Zip Code 
For the rich

Separation is designed to stir up contention
Aint that ah.....
