Today These Two Things Scared Me.

one.
The Children here play baseball using bricks as bases.

two.
I've never realized how many teens don't graduate school untill my friends started dropping out like flies from the dry sky.

The Perfect Explaination

i eavsdroped on two girls talking loudly next to me.

"You don't know what a grapefruit is?!"

"No!"

"It's like a giant orange that tastes like shit."


And oh how right she is.

Some Things You Shouldn't Swallow

It's like how sometimes on wednesday nights
your too tired to make dinner so you look in the florecent lit fridge for
some left overs

And sometimes the leftovers you take out are from weeks ago,
like that spaghetti
from when you had a good day at work.

Some nights i watch you eat those noodles, sucking them down.
Me knowing the noodles have started to mold, yet not saying anything.

It's alarming to me
how you can't tell the difference between
a steaming hot sauce and the sticky pink slime.
