What if
laws were
truly based
on justice?
What if you reached back into the commu
nity instead of down into your pocket? What
if all New Yorkers didn’t refer to you as
“yo?” What if the politicians sucked but the
system sucked worse? What if mutual re
spect was a given? What if Ice Cube didn’t
spend three days on stage at Homecoming?
What if men and women understood each
other? What if the Falcons never EVER win
another game? What if our leaders had
hearts as big as their egos? What if the mas-
cot-jacking wasn’t the highlight of the foot
ball game? What if Johnetta AND Massey
*
were there? What if life had a rewind but
ton? What if NOBODY voted? What if we
stopped the cycle and taught our children
the RIGHT way? What if I’m only foolin
myself? What if you stopped to listen to the
other guy’s point? What if you weren’t
lookin at her titties when she was tryin to
tell you her name? What if I ran out of what
if’s and you had to wait til the next issue
for some more?
