Wiseguys Poems | Examples


Mistaken Identity

Some crooks are dumb as they come,
these thieves should get what they deserve
as they won't go so very far
now they're done taking a ride
in the stolen Police car...
with, 'To Protect & Serve
Dial 911,' printed on the side.

When the judge asked them, 'Why?'
and stressed, 'It's best if you confessed.'
The wiseguys both admitted,
while facing five to seven,
(have you guessed?)
'We thought it was a Porsche,
a Porsche 911.'

Wiseguys

Wiseguys

when I was a skinny
eight-year-old boy
I knew him as
Willy Shoes

it was Brooklyn 
in 1950 and
some men had
strange names 
reflections of personality
deed or look

he and his friends
never seemed to have jobs
but gathered on corners 
played cards in social clubs 
always friendly always polite

Willy Shoes was handsome
with large dark Mediterranean eyes
dressed to the nines
silk shirts pegged pants
gold cufflinks and alligator belts
jet-black hair combed
into a perfectly Brylcreemed
ducktail and pompadour 
you could see your reflection
in the high gloss of any pair
of shoes from his infinite
spit shined collection
 
Wille liked me 
hey kiddo  he would say
here’s a buck
take this here envelope
and give it to Thomazula
the bootblack

one day when
I was about seventeen
I saw a picture of
Willie Shoes
on the front page of
the New York Post 
handcuffed and trying to
hide his face with a
neatly pressed
pin-striped suit jacket

Willie “Shoes” Sansone it said
charged with the murders
of eleven gangland figures

and I remember wondering
if he would let me have
a few pair of his fancy shoes
while he was away...

Cement Overcoat

Two Wiseguys have locked me in their car trunk and are taking me for a ride.
In just a little while from now, those two men will commit homicide.
I was an eyewitness and I was going to testify.
But the Mafia captured me and now I will die.
They're going to throw me in the lake after giving me a cement overcoat.
It will be heavy enough to sink me to the bottom, I certainly won't float.
The car has stopped and those two men are opening the trunk.
They're getting ready to cover me with cement, my boat is sunk.
Suddenly I hear thunder, and lightning just struck those two punks in the head.
God has saved me after the Government failed to, those evil fiends are dead.
I'm still shaking because I was so terrified.
If God hadn't intervened, I would've died.
If you're wondering how grateful I am to The Lord, the answer is a lot.
God saved me because I'm a Christian and those Wiseguys were not.

(This is a fictional poem.)
