Broke Broke (Wednesday, 17 June 2015)

you ask why i took
my last $60 out before
E-Z pass took it
have you stopped to think maybe
that it was the way you act
.
mom and dad don't owe
you the money that we
have to beg from them
because you took six months off
to take care of our daughter
.
it is not their fault
that you could not find work when
you started looking
in january '14
and found it in june '15
.
it is your fault that
you made me lie about it
for such a long time
it's your fault that you never
begged with me, angry when asked.
.
it offends me when
you still waste leftover food.
cereal, lunchmeat
milk, McDonalds for dinner
will i have money for lunch?
