Broke and broken

by Matt   May 15, 2008


If cold air was edible I'd have a fridge worth of food.
Expired but my hunger makes it taste good.
Broken wife left me because I'm a lazy slob.
Desperation keeps me dreaming about people I want to rob.

Some days I sleep for two I just can't get out of bed.
On the first I avoid the landlord like a bounty on my head.
I stopped answering my cell because the calls are always creditors.
I stopped answering the door because the creditors are predators.

My parents don't speak to me they live two blocks away.
Ashamed of the black sheep; I chose to live this way.
Used to lay with my girl speaking million dollar plans
She's a million dollar girl and I was a million dollar man.
The only thing missing was about a million dollars.

And a shower and clean clothes and dishes and clean teeth.
Depression makes me not want to do anything.
I smell like dried up urine cum spit and masturbation.
I'm sick of the crap like a stagnent constipation.

A ruined broken man who's dreams have all failed.
My momma told me one day that the whole world would hail -
To me but see it's not that way it seems my mom did lie.
Seems there's not much out here in this world for her special little guy.

    Utter rubbish...... nah I'll give you a five anyway, most of the poems on here you cant remember several seconds after you read them. Thankfully this was worth the look.

    I think that's a lazy response. I think if you really like something that someone writes you should at least give them 5 extra words depicting exactly what was exceptional about it.
