Pleasantries for Peasants

Folder: 
Thought For Food

a peasant in the stands

you watch kings and queens play

..modern day crochet



with million dollar chess pieces

you worship the bishops

as if they're super human

and you are next to nothing



in the enemies clothing

barbaric mindless modern

with the twist

drenching out your wallet



your thin wallet



they feign creation

you stagnate(and you watch)

and act like you're part

of something



(we've passed time for pasttimes)

it's passed time for pasttimes

the smeared black and grass stains

..washed away, called game



permanently

you never go outside

it's always too hot or cold

to dry or too much snow



but never on the t/v

just what you were born to be

case dismissed

reaching for your wallet



your thin wallet



they feign creation

you buy it

and act like you're part

of something



pleasantries for peasants

this is all you worked for



pleasantries for peasants

this is all you worked for



ball game

a club

times square

on new years eve



inbetween.....



pleasantries for peasants

this is all you worked for



pleasantries for peasants

this is all you worked for



pleasantries...

this is all...



if you make it through the day

you can watch the home team play

eat, watch, and pass out

is tomorrow gonna work out?
