"Communities & Connections" ... A Poem written by Big Virge 19/5/2005

The Thought of Communities Interests Me .....
Because Communities NEED ... UNITY ...
If They're Gonna SUCCEED In Keeping The Peace ... !!!

PEACE and LOVE Can Create Harmony ...
HARMONY Creates ... Peaceful Streets ...
Streets That Require ... LESS Police ... !!!
Because Police Are Required TOO FREQUENTLY ... !!!!!

Police NEED To Recognise How They BE ... !!!
Cos' Harassment of Youth Can UPSET Their Chi ... !!!

They NEED TO Feel FREE ........................................................
To Be Who They BE ...
WITHOUT Always FEARING ... BRUTALITY ... !!!!!

This Comes From Patience ...
MORE Race Integration ... !!!!

MORE Workshops for THEM ...
They NEED Education ... !!!!!

On How Our Youth Are ...
Black Youngsters and Asians ...
And Youthful Caucasians ... !!!

Racists NEED ................................................................................ REMOVAL .....
From Our ... " Police Stations " ... !!!!!

That WASN'T A Dig ... !!!
But ABUSE of The Law ...
Makes Most People SICK ... !!!

And This Can Bring TROUBLE ...
When Dealing With KIDS ... !!!

Communities NEED ...
To FIGHT OFF ............... Div - isi - on ... !!!!!

They NEED POSITIVE Leaders ...
With Singular Visions ... !!!

People Who LISTEN ...
To Statements With Missions ... !!!!!
NOT People Who Have ...

"Narrow Minded Opinions" ... !!!

From Groups Run By Muslims ...
To Groups Run By Christians ...

DON'T Use Your Religion ...
To Build A ...................................................... Partition ... !!!!!

Use Your Religion ...
To UNIFY Children ...
Cos' UNITY Is ...
What Most People Are ................................... Missing .......................... !!!

We NEED Education ...
That FEEDS Information ...
To Help Us ................................... AVOID ...
Social .... "Depravation" .... !!!!!

There Is NO EXCUSE ...
For Children's STARVATION ... !!!!!!

Private Investment ...
Can Save Populations ...
From ... Discrimination ...

FORGET The Playstation ... !!!

The Games of TODAY ...
NOW NEED Alterations ... !!!

Investment Is NEEDED ...
In ... REAL Recreation ... !!!

Sports Clubs and Parks ...

This ISN'T A Call ...
But PLEASE Hear My HARK ... !!!!!

Cos' Those Who ...
... DON'T LISTEN ...
REMAIN In The Dark ... !!!

This Piece Has Been Written ...
For Peoples' PROTECTION ... !!!

Crime DOES NEED Inspection ... !!!

Our Youth NEED Direction ...
BEFORE They End Up Hearing ... !!!!!

"Son you've been sectioned !"

Cos' Violence Can Lead To ...
Psychiatrists Questions ... !!!!

Violence Is SPREADING ...
A ... DEADLY Infection ... !!!!!!!

THE CURE Is PREVENTION.

PEACE Is A Word ...
That DESERVES One More Mention ... !!!!!

I Hope What You've Read ...
INSPIRES ... " Reflection " ...

So To Those Who've Read This ...
REFLECT Upon ... THIS ...

Communities WON'T GROW ...

Without ...

... STRONG CONNECTIONS ... !!!!!
