Area Dude

It’s 8 AM in the morning and my friend got robbed last night.

That’s the result of a person going through hards times and not workin’ but steady workin’ on 

how to get the quick buck.

My friend was out of luck.

My friend’s purse was a bad chest hair and he plucked..

and left the area bruised. 

Some will argue that this thief is a product of his environment.

He’s an area dude.

When food gets scarce, gotta do what he gotta do.

But i'm here to inform and hope my next sentence takes the world by storm.

Area dudes don’t have to do what area dudes do because even if your a product of your 

environment you can still be you.
