My city Cries.

Ollie Woods

Pity lies under the Foot of the Heartless.
So much self Hatred Harnessed.
Catastrophe and Carnage are the Guidelines for Modern Civilization.
Dedication to Devastation are the strongest commitments.
Actions committed against our own Leads to self Resentment.
I thought Life Matters.
Whatever happened to Aspirations of Peaceful existence.
The Reality is lives are being wasted in an instance.
Now’s the Time to Rebel against this.
I’ll lead the resistance.
Ensure every block has a Healing Corner.
Do away with the Guns Concealed on Corners.
More Life Less Coroners.
The time is now for All who’s willing.
Let’s Break through these invisible Ceilings en Route to our Potential.
Its time for the Men to use their Credentials to be more positively influential.
The Change starts now.
Offsets feelings of Anguish with Acts of Love.
The Time is Now.
The Youth want to Live.
The time is Now.
Mindstate must be altered.
The time is Now.
Before the City is All cried out!
— Ollie Woods
