My Slum

my slum is urban decay, poverty, unemployment ,drugs ,alchahol ,crime ,murder ,unsanitary, disease , danger.
my slum is my home.
my slum is my friends.
my slum is my food and employer.
my slum is a jungle i am to roam.
my slum is where no one pretends.
my slum is not a destroyer.
my slum is where you cannot get a loan.

my slum is where no one contends.

my slum is a place without a lawyer.

my slum isnt perfect.

my slum isnt yours.

i dont want a big city full of law and offices.

i want my slum.

and however bad condtions get i am not alone in my slum and am grateful.

my slum isn't perfect but niether is yours.
