I'm trying to find a poem we studied in English class called King Heroin, but all I got find is the crappy James Brown song which is a cover of the poem.

checked google, but I can't seem to find it.

If anyone could help that would be great

Who's it by?
I found this: http://www.comedystars.com/Kirby_George/kirby_george.htm but no copy of the poem online.
It's by George Kirby.

The version i saw said the author was unknown and that it was found on a prison wall.
