To A Street Hustler
Dear hustler, work your way, Let not others' scorn dismay. Pray for God's grace, each day, And your reward will come your way. But do not kill yourself for gain, It's not worth the price of pain. Do not steal or cause another's loss, Let not your greed bring another's cross. Take your time, and work your way, It's not worth it to rush...

The Hustler President The Hustling nation finally got the king of Hustlers, Yes, he was born deep inside the village Sungoi, Born by Hustling parents, he lived a modest life, He fed on the best natural foods, which he loves today, A sip of Mursiki and some well-done Sanga will forever remind you where you come from Forever. The king...

Poems About Pool Sharks
POEMS ABOUT POOL SHARKS Shark by Michael R. Burch They are all unknowable, these rough pale men— haunting dim pool rooms like shadows, propped up on bar stools like scarecrows, nodding and sagging in the fraying light... I am not of them, as I glide among them— eliding the amorphous camaraderie they are as unlikely to spell as to feel, camouflaged in my own pale dichotomy... That there...

The Hustler
The greatest hustler we will ever know Is our wishful thinking For something holy. The deal on the table never really changes. It has long grown old And curdled. But we all take it as new. And How can I find my balance on the legal apparatus Of a rat eat rat city Which will always take the form’ Of a moneyed home. Those of...
