urban

Raised hearty...live off scraps and crumbs.
Married....uneducated....different...feeling dumb.
Cat bowl for the cat only!
How dare u eat from that.
I washed it...oops...catch disease?
I could catch a rat.
We have no food...
But i see the cuboards full.
We only have red meat and apple pie.
Nothing to go with.
Dreaming of red bull...

And then remember to be a thankful  man.
Im married with a house and food.
Not bad from the trash can.
Chat with siblings who are far worse off.
Still walk with chin and spirit high.
Reaching in the trash can
To pull out what is just a waste.
And someone screams
It is you who is changing face.

Turning soft they call it.
Why the fuck settle for scraps when u can get apple pie with cream!!!!
