Following the Beat of the Drum
Tammy lived a reckless and careless life.
She answered to no one, lived by her own
rules.
Tammy has been on her own ever since
she could remember.
The streets were her home; she lived the
street life.
The average person didn't mess with her;
because she had a bad reputation.
Being the girlfriend of a notorious gang
leader had its ups and downs.
Rival girlfriends of other gang leaders
would constantly pick fights with her.
On a night near a desolate alley Tammy
got caught slippin.
She was walking by herself; she didn't even
have any protection.
The rival gang saw her and beat her senseless.
They left her for dead, a homeless dude found
her and ran to get help.
By the time the ambulance found her, she had
lost a lot of blood and had a faint pulse.
They rushed her to the hospital, she flatlined,
but they resuscitated her. However, it was touch
and go….. … they didn’t know if she would live
or die… her life hung in the balance, and it
was touch and go.
*caught slippin
to be caught off guard, in a very bad way.
