Delinquent
Innocence is lost in the market, character an insurgent
molds up in the wrong clay and stay intransigent
sometimes, this sound young mind is calm and in a low cut
other times, a strong and heavily weaponized nut
never recognizes the importance of his biological brother
dines with the devil and sacrifices his hands, rather
in his brotherhood, the feel of a hundred traps is akin
his encounter exposes a new leg to the banana skin
on his potential, naïve is the preacher who belittles
he may come back on track, but for now, a stag bettle.
