poem brainstorming

North Philadelphia

I love walking in the neighborhood I was born and raised in. I am not directly saying I was neighborhood famous but alot of people know me as I walk down the street. I see guys I went to school with. they sitting on the steps hanging out. As I look around the neighborhood I see kids on their bikes laughing having a good time. I see the older generation on the porch talking about the good times.

I smell chinese food platters, cheesesteak platters, chips, pizza, cigarettes, and marijuana. The smell is probably overwhelming to most people, but you just get use to it. The reason for the scents to be smelled very often because the corner stores share the same section of the neighborhood. The smell of various foods that are cooked combined into one big junk food smell. 

I hear laughing, as well as a few controversies,  such as you mad or naw?, you start drawn, yo!!!!! my man tryna bag, you op, I got no rap, you tryna mix?, cuz, bro, she badd, we love the hispanics,we call them  papis in their stores, like papi let me a get a......   . 

WE played videogames like nba 2k,  sometimes madden, sometimes call of duty. majority of sports fans are basketball fans. lebron james fans are living in north philly, alot of Durant fans are living in north philly, people are a big fan of love and hip hop atl, bad girls club, watching nba games is a must. hardly any philly sports fans, Most people are dedicated to the eagles and the phillies, the rest of the sports teams are irrelevant.
