We Ain't Got It
Location
Sounds chiming in my head, what
Is that? I think
I roll off the top bunk.
THUMP! Squeak!
Opps, my bad Mickey didn’t mean to step on MY bedroom floor
I realized I have disturb your scurrying so here
Jump into my backpack and finish those coffee cake crumbs from yesterday’s lunch
Hurry up tho, I leave for school at 8:15am…so you best be outta there by then
SQUISH! My apologies Senior Cucaracha
Last time we met you were sittin’ on my ear drum
Antenna tickling sound cords and what not,
I know you were only exploring new terrain, but still
We can’t take anymore chances
OH!
Tell ya cousins to stay out the cereal God damnit!
I like my Rice Krispies sin plagas…gracias
Gotta make haste now!
Where is the cleanest of my dirty clothes? Ahhhh! There you are!
Hold up; gotta get a piece of cardboard
Shoes done
Torn at the bottom, sole all ripped out
No soul to be ripped out
8:14am
Mamma! I’m leaving for school now…I need a couple dollars
Waits…she grunts
Dat school lunch nasty Ma….
“Girl, you betta go on now! You know damn well we ain’t got it!”
