Help Our Community

by: De’Anthony Hollowell

 

What do you think about your community?

Does it have too many gangs and violence?

Is it a peaceful neighborhood?

Let me think about it……..

My neighborhood has been peaceful since

the police started to come around more.

No gangs.

No mobs.

No drug dealers.

Are you in a gang or mob?

Just think about your community

most people are afraid to tell.

But l think snitching is an option

sometimes when you get a chance

you need to think about your neighborhood.

The reason why l say your neighborhood

because if you want a job you

you can’t because where you come from

especially where most violence is.

So don’t be afraid to tell the police.

That’s why I’m a hero

because I stopped being scared to

go outside and do stuff.

Its my neighborhood too so I’m going to show

people you don’t have to be scared.
