Why was my name on a list
in place of someone else’s
did I do something wrong
or is it just luck and a draw
feels more like a loss
and I’m not one to complain
The silent majority
I wonder if it will soon scream
for attention
addition
a chance to rise
and over the only way we know
that encourages us to be slow
and away our cares eventually will go
numb then out with many vices
So you won’t have to see me
I hide inside waiting for
something to happen
Or wander roads aimlessly
on a quarter tank of gas
Can’t remember when I last
filled the tank to full
Maybe I lost my car too
but that would never
happen to you
What did you do right
and how can I make things better
In a system of class
maybe I can admit
I am of the lower, can it change?
