Misfit
By SaintNHB
I'm trying something new here, so honest feedback would be great. thanks.
Dont give me a thing
I don't deserve any of it
Where
is Americas work ethic?
Daddy buying you your SUV's
While I'm
scraping up change for an engagement ring
(That I'll never get a yes
to)
A glassy eyed bitch whos trying to fit in
gives me
the evil eye
Dressed all in black, I flip her off with my tattoo'd
middle finger
(So much for working on my anger)
What's wrong
with America?
(What's wrong with me?)
Economy, Anxiety,
Depression, and Faith
I'm shooting up in a gas station bathroom
I'm dirty, covered in blood
(Shaking to hard to accurately hit a
vein)
I walk out to see the gas price rise
What's wrong with
America?
(What's wrong with me?)

I really liked it. It's different from many poems, a little vision in social-economic world. We all need this kind of poetry.

This is seriously amazing. It's now become one of my favorite poems just because it's so well written and because it relates to me.

My daughter recently asked something similar - are things really bad now, or just more hyped? - to which I answered: yes & yes. Just remember that the pendulum swings both ways. Where did the blood come from? Gritty images, thanks.

Thats a very great question your daughter asked. I've been pondering it for a while... The blood came from fucking up when trying to hit a vein while shooting up...
