06.23.19 (gum)

Why do I bother
To think I cannot falter
Mistaken I sought her
I understand I am fodder

Feel it burn my skin
Cannot ever win
Gold doesn’t conceal sin
Dirt is dirt amen

Belong in the trash
Cancerous mass
Forgotten in the cold 
Rotten like the mold 

Nothing much to contribute 
Feel fickle, feel moot
Nothing to lose, just truth
I am the gum on the bottom of your shoe
