Difficult Times (Pt. 1)

Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)



We are Living

 in Difficult Times 

Because we're Dealing

 with Strenuous Times 

Gas prices High

Food prices High 

People done gone Mad

and we def know why

People are Driving with 

a lot of Road Rage

 they are off

 their Rockers

 In these days

 Dealing with Covid

Monkeypox too

Shooting and killing

Now, what we gonna do

Vaccines and Boosters 

 Are Here and there

Monkey pox cases

 are everywhere

(TO BE CONTINUED)
