Drink the dirty bastards down, <br />Eliminate the callous, <br />Snake through the sullied streets <br />Where the smell of urine <br />And cheap cologne collide; <br />A man not looking for a bride, <br />Picks up a girl beaten down by life <br />For minutes of pleasure <br />That slide into the past <br />Like a blink of the eye. <br />On the university streets, <br />The kids all smile with dreams; <br />But in the real city, <br />The hookers and the hoodwinks <br />Exchange drugs and saliva, <br />Police-taxi rides <br />To corrupt precincts <br />Where homeless, delusional preachers <br />See Jesus Christ crucified <br />In the unholy night.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/jesus-christ-crucified/
