    The drums pound

    The beat resounds

    The light is found

    The king is crowned

    I feel that I was wrongly banned from the forum due to events that may have occurred on AIM. I was allegedly caught sending "harassing" messages of a sexual nature towards another URPG member that was looking for a battle. I'm not saying I harassed anyone, as that is completely against my nature, and I have no recollection of this event. I think I was really drunk or something. But by banning me you are cutting off the wings of the URPGs life and leaving it as a lowly Caterpie that feeds upon the soot and poo that is left upon the grounded leafs that fall. I am speaking for everyone here. We all have certain urges, but should they really be punished. We were given gifts from gods in that we have the ability to make love, to give love, to get love. We have special parts that act together as Plusle and Minun and create the ebb and flowith to which pleasure go-ith. I do not mean to harm anyone, I merely wish to make love, to give love. Is that so much of a crime? Please take the time to read this rhyme.

    Pistols shots ring out in the barroom night
    Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
    She sees the bartender in a pool of blood
    Cries out "My God they killed them all"
    Here comes the story of the Hurricane
    The man the authorities came to blame
    For something that he never done
    Put him in a prison cell but one time he could-a been
    The champion of the world.

    Three bodies lying there does Patty see
    And another man named Bello moving around mysteriously
    "I didn't do it" he says and he throws up his hands
    "I was only robbing the register I hope you understand
    I saw them leaving" he says and he stops
    "One of us had better call up the cops"
    And so Patty calls the cops
    And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashing
    In the hot New Jersey night.

    Meanwhile far away in another part of town
    Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are driving around
    Number one contender for the middleweight crown
    Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
    When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
    Just like the time before and the time before that
    In Patterson that's just the way things go
    If you're black you might as well not shown up on the street
    'Less you wanna draw the heat.

    Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the corps
    Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowling around
    He said "I saw two men running out they looked like middleweights
    They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates"
    And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head
    Cop said "Wait a minute boys this one's not dead"
    So they took him to the infirmary
    And though this man could hardly see
    They told him that he could identify the guilty men.

    Four in the morning and they haul Rubin in
    Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs
    The wounded man looks up through his one dying eye
    Says "Wha'd you bring him in here for ? He ain't the guy !"
    Yes here comes the story of the Hurricane
    The man the authorities came to blame
    For something that he never done
    Put in a prison cell but one time he could-a been
    The champion of the world.

    Four months later the ghettos are in flame
    Rubin's in South America fighting for his name
    While Arthur Dexter Bradley's still in the robbery game
    And the cops are putting the screws to him looking for somebody to blame
    "Remember that murder that happened in a bar ?"
    "Remember you said you saw the getaway car?"
    "You think you'd like to play ball with the law ?"
    "Think it might-a been that fighter you saw running that night ?"
    "Don't forget that you are white".

    Arthur Dexter Bradley said "I'm really not sure"
    Cops said "A boy like you could use a break
    We got you for the motel job and we're talking to your friend Bello
    Now you don't wanta have to go back to jail be a nice fellow
    You'll be doing society a favor
    That sonofabitch is brave and getting braver
    We want to put his ass in stir
    We want to pin this triple murder on him
    He ain't no Gentleman Jim".

    Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
    But he never did like to talk about it all that much
    It's my work he'd say and I do it for pay
    And when it's over I'd just as soon go on my way
    Up to some paradise
    Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
    And ride a horse along a trail
    But then they took him to the jailhouse
    Where they try to turn a man into a mouse.

    All of Rubin's cards were marked in advance
    The trial was a pig-circus he never had a chance
    The judge made Rubin's witnesses drunkards from the slums
    To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
    And to the black folks he was just a crazy nigger
    No one doubted that he pulled the trigger
    And though they could not produce the gun
    The DA said he was the one who did the deed
    And the all-white jury agreed.

    Rubin Carter was falsely tried
    The crime was murder 'one' guess who testified
    Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
    And the newspapers they all went along for the ride
    How can the life of such a man
    Be in the palm of some fool's hand ?
    To see him obviously framed
    Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
    Where justice is a game.

    Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
    Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
    While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
    An innocent man in a living hell
    That's the story of the Hurricane
    But it won't be over till they clear his name
    And give him back the time he's done
    Put him in a prison cell but one time he could-a been
    The champion of the world.


    Take me back, I am coming home~

    I don't think you know what poetic justice is.

    Also, this story is for a Magikarp, please.

    You lack the thought process of a true member of the Pokemon Ultra Role Playing Game. What we are witnessing here is the revival of our beloved Jesus of Magikarps. Take your ignorance elsewhere for you do not deserve to experience this miracle. I would like to declare September 26th an annual holiday named New Easter for the celebration of when our Pokemon Ultra Role Playing Game Lord rose from the realm of dead, banned users on this community forum known as the Bulbagarden forums...
