Seventh Street Heading into the Sunset

Exiting the freeway

Watch that speed

Black & Whites in lay

Public coffers in need

Gated Communities left

Public facilities right

Economic immunity fight

Education and vets

Not worth amputation nor a lifetime of debts

Cruise past the golfers and well entrenched clout

Keep those slopes green even in a drought

At the end of the fairway 

Our families are out

Throw your care away

You can even shout

Honks and horns

Needles and thorn

Even public officials

Burn our heads with scorn

Food is fast

Health is last

Don't look just drive past

If you took time to observe

For sure you would be aghast

Right before that freeway onramp curve

Full of diesel fumes and gas

And the last two things you see strike a nerve

Elementary students and cement-sleeping ass
