I Have a Gang Nicolas Miller

I have a gang .
We roll twenty in a school zone after dark . The Wolves have their turf , so we avoid the basketball courts off 5th and Park . The Wolves , you see , are killers . They don ’ t tattoo tears because diamonds can ’ t cry . The human eye is a wolf ’ s diamond . Imagine that : the eye , inferior .
I have a gang .
We blast Run the Jewels ’ self-titled album through Alpines ; rolling forty in a Honda Civic . We ’ re terrified of voicemails , so we stay in airplane mode . We find a Wolf walking alone and tell him that he ’ s worthless .
I have a gang .
I lost a Honda Civic in this image . If I were younger I would ’ ve assaulted something “ wolves ,” and made a man seem sad . I ’ d say : That man is me . He ’ s in a gang . But I ’ m the me that isn ’ t younger ; alone on a swing-set after dark , rising and falling with myself .
