Answer 1

Mafia garbage. Grew up around this crap and I will tell you being an ex veteran what other war veterans told me.

MEN are those who know they can kill, but DON'T
MEN kill to protect the innocent for no others WON'T

Anyone can act like an animal, but few act like men
Colors, numbers, and codes are for children in a world which won't even remember who they were, for the world only remembers those who kill to protect those who can't defend themselves NOT the animals all fighting to be king of the ZOO.

My father was in and out of prisons most of the last 25 years of his life always fighting to be that king of the zoo. I grew up around this "mafia" mentality only to see the animals all fight for NOTHING. EVERYTHING is TEMPORARY in the life of a DREAMER.....

Answer 2

In view of the past how do you claim omertà? It certainly doesn't stand for umirtà - the Sicilian word for humility.

Answer 3

looks like he put whatever he was feeling into words, my imagination pictures a man who spoke ill of the dead was ridiculed for it though the person he spoke of was of no consequence.

Answer 4

Sounds like a death threat to me but against who it does not say.

Answer 5

Edit: oops, I think that's a poem! Sorry I called you stupid.
