THE LAST CRIME, A Poem by Alexander Cameron

Be the first person to commit the last crime,
While in the midst of making a honest dime – and –
Don’t sweat the thought’s that visit you from the sidelines – but –
rather sweat the troubling thought’s of doing hard time -and-
don’t get caught up in evils glitter games and scheme’s,
simply because your friends played the game for a nice ride and some serious bling .
So, as jealousy and envy pervades your thoughts,
Hold true to your integrity, because real man can’t be brought.
Therefore, as you stay strong and squeaky clean,
You’ll never have to witness Ms Karma, lay waste to your precious dreams.
So, as wisdom continue to teach: wrong can never be right,
the truth always take back what’s hers no matter how vicious the fight.
So, as you continue to learn from the failure’s of your missing friends,
Remember, it was that flash in the pan that introduced them to their end.
So, keep that smile on your face as you make it through your Teens and in – Betweens.
as you understand it was your Mother’s love that protected your dream’s.
So, relax a little in the lap of knowing your future will be just fine -but-
Always remember you made it through because you were the first person to commit the last crime.
