especially when love is hard to find

W a l k I n g with a limp
an inch from a pimp

in an attempt to look hard
having no regards playing the part
of the rappers he sees in the videos
draped in gold spitting lyrics
with metaphors about
hoes and fat BANK ROLLS

but the interrogation session remains on the
