PAD Challenge Day 6: Write a trap poem.

Tr@p Mu$iC

Synthesizers and 808s often

make some Pretty Girls Love Trap Music

And black kings feel like

the King of the South,

Handsome and Wealthy.

They don’t even have to be

from the 404 or really about

that trap life-- even if they can’t

relate to the charges,

the sentences, being wasted and

called someone’s side piece, or

a special black diamond that

twirls and twerk at Club Diamond

or a plug to some grams

and some commas.

These upbeat, negro spirituals

are therapy sessions after a dysfunctional day.

The words are raw poetry, a bloodline

and motivation to Black America.

It is a come up for some artists with

limited or no ways out of a

generational battles of the blues.

These songs will have you

Put On for your city and dreams.

They will leave you feelings

some Type of Way, like a

Rubber Band Man without 2 Chainz

or Bad and Boujee with three of

your a-Migos, and so Icy and

gucci at the same time.

You may even talk that Stick Talk

upfront so Dey Know you’re not

Foolish about being a Soul Survivor.
